B2001 <Someone> [reported] win32?: giant ant is black square
Where is the open doorway with the giant ant standing in it?
There used to be a closed door there, if I recall correctly.
[now there is just a black square]
I'm saving the level files at this point, and I will be saving
the game after I did that, in case you're interested in any save
files.
Fixes:
- menu shortcuts implemented
- most windows close on space (except for menus with
PICK_ANY style)
- "hilite_pet" option is implemented
- map scrolling is improved somewhat (it now scrolls if
the char is within 5 spaces from the edge of the map -
configurable by #define CLIPAROUND_MARGIN)
- added 3 winhack-specific options:
win32_map_mode:[tiles|ascii4x6|ascii6x8|ascii8x8
|ascii16x8|ascii7x12|ascii8x12|ascii15x12
|ascii12x16|ascii10x18|fit_to_screen]=20
win32_align_status:[left|top|right|bottom]
win32_align_message:[left|top|right|bottom]
Note: aligning status window to left or right edge of the screen does
not look good.
This was caused by character set incompatibility between message and map
windows. Apparently, Nethack is using IBM character set (CP 437) but fonts
were create for Windows ANSI codepage. I fixed most of it by changing
character set of the fonts except for the Rogue level. I had to make changes
to src/drawing.c for Rogue level since most of Windows fonts are not capable
of displaying control characters (char. code<0x20)
And of course, disabling IBMGraphics option fixes it all.

-Adds Rogue-level ascii support.
-Also removes unicode support.
Some other build script tweaks as well.
