- Instead of checking for the Rogue level, check which
graphics are engaged (PRIMARY or ROGUESET) in the
SYMHANDLING() macro.
- track which graphics are active through 'currentgraphics'.
- Instead of symset and roguesymset and symhandling and roguehandling
variables, have symset and symhandling be arrays of two, with the
following indexes:
PRIMARY
ROGUESET
That reduced the amount of repeated code.
(Not to be confused with the 'symset' and 'roguesymset' config file options
both of which still exist)
- the symbol routines were adjusted to pass
the index , rather than 'rogueflag' and coding to roguesymset etc.
Other than fixing bugs that are encountered, this is probably
the last of the symbol stuff, with the exception of
making the symset and roguesymset config file options
accept the keyword value "default".
This is an overhaul to the NetHack drawing mechanism.
- eliminates the need to have separate lists in drawing.c
for the things and their associated explanations by grouping
those thing together on the same inializer in a struct.
- replaces all of these options: IBMgraphics, DECgraphics, MACgraphics,
graphics, monsters, objects, boulder, traps, effects
- drawing.c contains only the set of NetHack standard symbols for
the main game and a set of NetHack standard symbols for the
roguelevel.
- introduces a symbols file that contains named sets of
symbols that can be loaded at run time making it extensible
for situations like multinational code pages like those reported
by <Someone>, without hardcoding additional sets into the game code.
- symbols file uses names for the symbols, so offsets will not break
when new things are introduced into the game, the way the older
config file uchar load routines did.
- symbols file only contains exceptions to the standard NetHack
set, not entire sets so they are much less verbose than all of
the g_FILLER() entries that were previously in drawing.c
- 'symset' and 'roguesymset' config file options for
preselecting a symbol set from the file called 'symbols'
at startup time. The name of the symbols file is not under the
users control, only the symbol set name desired from within the
symbols file is.
- 'symset' config file option loads a desired symbol set for
everything but the rogue level.
- 'roguesymset' config file option loads a desired symbol set
for the rogue level.
- 'SYMBOLS' config file option allows the user to specify replacement
symbols on a per symbol basis. You can specify as many or as few symbols
as you wish. The symbols are identified by a name:value pair, and line
continuation is supported. Multiple symbol assignments can be made on
the same line if each name:value pair is separated by a comma.
For example:
SYMBOLS = S_bars:\xf0, S_tree: \xf1, S_room:\xfa \
S_fountain:\xf4 \
S_boulder:0
- 'symbols' file has the following structure:
start: DECgraphics
Handling: DEC
S_vwall: \xf8 # meta-x, vertical rule
S_hwall: \xf1 # meta-q, horizontal rule
finish
start: IBMgraphics
Handling: IBM
S_vwall: \xb3 # meta-3, vertical rule
S_hwall: \xc4 # meta-D, horizontal rule
finish
- 'symbols' file added to the source tree in the dat directory
- Port Makefiles/scripts will need to be adjusted to move them into
HACKDIR destination
Introduce a new set of functions to manage delayed killers in the trunk, used
in addressing the various reports of delayed killer confusion. Since existing
delayed killers are related to player properties, the delayed killers are
keyed by uprop indexes. I did this to avoid adding yet another set of
similar identifiers.
- the new delayed_killer() is used for stoning, sliming, sickness, and
delayed self-genocide while polymorphed. Some other timed events don't
use it (and didn't use the old delayed_killer variable) because they
use a fixed message when the timeout occurs.
- A new data structure, struct kinfo, is used to track both delayed and
immediate killers. This encapsulates all the info involved with
identifying a killer. The structure contains a buffer, which subsumes the
old killer_buf and several other buffers that didn't/couldn't use killer_buf.
- the killer list is saved and restored as part of the game state.
- the special case of usick_cause was removed and a delayed killer list
entry is now used in its place
- common code dealing with (un)sliming is moved to a new make_slimed function
- attempted to update all make dependencies for new end.c -> lev.h
dependency, sorry if I messed any up

This patch:
- collects all context/tracking related fields from flags
into a new structure called "context."
It also adds the following to the new structure:
- stethoscope turn support
- victual support
- tin support
Although the overlay stuff is destined to be
removed someday, this patch just makes the
use of STATIC_DCL, STATIC_OVL consistent
in the trunk.
[As a side pointless experiment, I was able
to build a working 8086 port of 3.4.2 after
this change that worked correctly in limited
testing right up until it came time to enter
Ft. Ludios., where it couldn't allocated the
required amount of memory.]
On some MSDOS ports, STATIC_OVL doesn't equate
to static, so taking_off in do_wear.c conflicts with the
one in invent.c in those environments. Somebody
out there might wish to try and build the 16 port and
tune it to work properly someday.
Explicitly mention fil41b.zip as a required djgpp component.
Oddly, some people only pick up part of djgpp, then
complain to us when the Makefile doesn't run as
planned.
The number_pad option can now optionally hold a value
{0,1, 2 } for {off, on, DOS-mode} but plain number_pad and
!number_pad in config files still work as before.
When number_pad:2 is set, iflags.num_pad_mode is set to 1
which triggers the following behaviour:

<Someone> reports that someone on the
newsgroup tried to use the MSVC 1.52c (16 bit compiler) Makefile
with MSVC 6 (32 bit compiler). Try to make it more obvious
that the Makefile isn't for that.
Add syntax that <Someone> introduced for the Mingw Makefile.gcc
to make it easy to use unix-style path separation throughout
the Makefile.
Put all the .exe files into ../util
Put all the .obj files into o/
Unfortunately a couple of glitches were encountered during the build of
the DOS binary.
Also, somewhere along the way the ability to separate the debug info
for the win32 tty binary into its own PDB file was removed from
Makefile.msc. I wasn't aware of that until I went to build the binary,
and discovered that I had no PDB file to stow away for bug
reports.
This patch, based on code sent to us by <Someone> well over a year ago, addresses
bugs recently resurfaced. Namely, that lava does not generally do anything
to monsters or objects that land in java. Newly renamed minliquid() handles
both water and lava, and new fire_damage() is used similar to water_damage().
