Prevent extremely long command line arguments from overflowing local
buffers in raw_printf or config_error_add. The increased buffer
sizes they recently got to deal with long configuration file values
aren't sufficient to handle command line induced overflows.
choose_windows(core): copy and truncate the window_type argument in
case it gets passed to config_error_add().
process_options(unix): report bad values with "%.60s" so that vsprintf
will implicitly truncate when formatted by raw_printf().
Attempt to test whether Lua fetch succeeded (and pdcurses for windows
and msdos as well)
If those prerequisite fetches and untars didn't work, just exit without
marking the travis-ci build as a failure so that the development team
isn't notified about something transient that they don't need to fix
in the code.
Cavemen don't have goal_alt message - before lua, that one
fell through into goal_next message, but now it tried to
load the "common" message. Add ability to define message fallbacks,
and make goal_next the fallback for goal_alt.
Also prevent issuing quest.lua errors twice.
Recently added "you hear an invisible choir chant in Latin ..." is
jarring. Unfortunately, something like "in an archaic language" would
make the message too long so just take out "in Latin".
Also a few reformatting bits for pray.c.
Move 'implicit_uncursed' and 'mention_walls' from iflags to flags to
make their current setting persist across save/restore. Invalidates
existing save files.
Trying to move into a wall or solid rock fails and doesn't do anything
(unless the 'mention_walls' option is On) and doesn't use a turn, and
trying to move off the edge of the map window also doesn't do anything
(except for 'mention_walls') but that did use a turn. Don't.
Fix 'Bugs 4, 5, and 6' which all use a similar fix but would have
conflicts over '#define BIGBUFSZ' if committed separately.
Format ("short explanation %s", string_argument), where the
explanation always has modest length but the string is potentially
up to 4*BUFSZ in length, into a 5*BUFSZ buffer. Then truncate the
result to at most BUFSZ-1 characters so that it can be safely passed
to interface-specific putstr() or raw_print().
Applies to pline(), raw_printf(), and config_error_add(). Also done
for impossible() although there's no evidence that its buffer could
be overflowed in a controlled manner.
Fix 'Bug 3' where too long SYMBOL=string in run-time config file could
overflow a local buffer and clobber the stack.
Valid value is only one character long after processing an 'escaped'
encoded character which can be at most 6 characters (plus terminator):
backslash M backslash and up three digits. If/when UTF8 gets added
the number of digits will increase. Use a truncated copy of the input
(substantially bigger than 6+1); ignore any excess.
Fix 'Bug 2' where too long MENUCOLOR=string in run-time config file
could overflow a local buffer and clobber the stack.
Theoretically a menu coloring regular expression could require a
bigger buffer but I don't think we need to try to support that.
255 characters minus the amount needed to specify color and/or
attributes should be ample.
pick_role() had a 5 year old copy+paste error where a pair of lines
were cloned multiple times but one of the resulting lines didn't get
the intended revision, preventing OPTIONS=align:!chaotic or !neutral
or !lawful from working as intended when letting the game choose role
randomly. The bad line should have been calling ok_align() but that
routine turned out to have a bug too.
Fixing those lead to other less obvious problems with role selection,
particularly the tty menu version for picking manually. Roles and/or
races which should have been excluded by partial specification weren't
always kept out. Also, if any filtering was specified, trying to
disable all filters (via choosing 'reset filtering' and de-selecting
everything in the menu) was a no-op. Once any filtering was in place
you had to leave at least one role or race or gender or alignment
flagged as not acceptable in order to change any of the filtering.
When that was fixed and it was possible to turn off all filtering,
there was no way to turn it back on because the menu choice to reset
the filters wasn't offered unless there was some filtering in place
(that was intentional but turned out not to be a good idea).
I checked curses and X11; they both offer less versatile selection
capability that don't seem to need the tty-specific fixes.
