If you stepped on an unknown rolling boulder trap, and that rolling boulder
hit a monster and killed it, you would be called a killer. This makes
playing a pacifism conduct game rather difficult.
- track boulders from unknown rolling boulder traps, and don't charge/credit
hero if they kill monsters. This is done by temporarily setting otrapped on
such boulders.
- boulders from known traps are still charged/credited to the hero
- fix a couple places in ohitmon where is_poisonable wasn't checked along
with opoisoned.
Monster centaurs can't wear boots, and characters who polymorph
into centaurs have their boots pushed off, but there was nothing to
prevent such characters from putting those boots right back on.
Make a change suggested by <Someone> to have the Wizard
enter harassment mode when you perform the invocation, in case
you manage to obtain the Book of the Dead without killing him.
Instead of just initiating that periodic effect, behave as if
you have actually killed him (which also affects random monster
generation frequency, prayer timeout, and shopkeeper salutations).
Allow the special level and dungeon compilers to handle input
files which have CR+LF delimited lines. Apparently Cygwin doesn't
convert MSDOS style line ends into newlines the way stdio should
do for text I/O. The resulting unexpected CR characters result in
syntax errors.
And explicitly using '\n' on both the lex and yacc sides of
MAP processing allows removal of the old NEWLINE hack for Mac MPW.
It won't matter what numeric value that character escape sequence
has internally.
- if a mimic mimics a boulder (top sokoban) or a door atop
a closed door the closed door didn't block your vision after
the mimic is sensed.
- also, make mondied consistent with xkilled WRT corpses on inaccessible
locations: no corpse
Well, this proved rather annoying. Problems included:
-- the solid rock problem that was noticed
-- teleporting to a spot two spaces away but on the other side of solid rock
could also leave the chain in solid rock
-- in one place I said chainx instead of ballx, which could cause problems with
teleporting
-- the teleport code moved the player before moving the ball, violating the
assumption that the player hasn't been moved yet (which only caused problems
after I added the solid rock fix).
Ball movement still isn't quite right, though the cases are really rare. I
may fix them later.
Fix the reported problem of incorrect conditional logic
making it impossible to bump into closed doors when moving while
impaired for the #if STEED configuration.
- report: twoweapon mode, eat fried food, get messages like:
Your sword slips from your hands.
Your sword also slips from your hands.
- the fix tracks the kind of the 1st weapon, and adds "other" to the 2nd
message if necessary
- change the way the tile sizes are calculated, based on the image size,
so non-square tiles can once again be supported.
- fix Gnome port so it can actually display non-square tiles, several
height/width uses were backwards
- update Install.X11 to note the number of tiles per row in the XPM image
- this was a betabug I think, but not recorded as such
- if you kicked a throne, any GEM_CLASS item could be generated, including rocks
- changes behavior to be consistent with gems from fountains
Format multiple bad wizkit items a little better. It will scroll off the screen
if there are more than a screen of bad items, but that's probably not too
likely.

Document the way to decline a wish or genocide, and allow both
actions to accept both "none" and "nothing" so that players don't
have to remember which response goes with which prompt.
The shop billing code assumes that food marked partly eaten
is worthless, but the eating code was changed to make sure that any
eating attempt will never leave food marked as not partly eaten.
The end result is that non-corpse food which is consumed in a
single byte can be eaten off shop floors for free, and if eaten
from inventory--so already on shop bill--the "Ix" display of used
up goods lists the item as partly eaten (with right price though).
This fix makes single-byte food be handled the same as other
food: the first byte taken causes the food to be auto-purchased
immediately instead of waiting until it's used up to add it to the
shopping bill.
Fix one of the problems From a bug report: Mjollnir is only
giving the intended feedback when it is thrown. Against ordinary
monsters the problem isn't too bad--you get a lightning message
without the preceding hit message--but against resistant ones there
is no message at all when you hit hand-to-hand. (There is a similar
bug for artifacts which add magic missile damage, but since no such
artifacts exist that isn't much of a problem. :-)

- remove a strange \! in the section for Blind users
- update the wording in the subsequent paragraph to be consistent with
the wording in the preceeding IBMgraphics paragraph
- various commands were missing from various help files
- fix a few inconsistencies between similar help files
- M-2 doesn't do #twoweapon when number_pad is enabled
- M-? usually displays #? help info
- weasel-word the reason the screen shown in the Guidebook looks little like
several windowports
- document the playersuffix syntax in the nethack.6 man page
- splash_screen (boolean for whether to display splash screen at startup)
- player_selection:dialog|prompts
Also moves the font and window manipulation stuff in defaults.nh
further down the file, so that a tty users doesn't have to wade
through it all to find the character adjustment samples.
