A few symbol-related modifications:
- fulfill a request from a blind player to allow them to
specify a unique/recognizable character for all pets and/or
the player in the config file for use when using a screen
reader (S_player_override, S_pet_override). Requires sysconf
setting ACCESSIBILITY to be set to have an effect, although
they can still be specified in the config file.
- Config file SYMBOLS entries were not working properly on
the rogue level. Allow ROGUESYMBOLS as well as SYMBOLS to be
specified in the config file independently.
- When values are moved into showsyms[], the overriding SYMBOLS
or ROGUESYMBOLS entry from the config file is used if there is
one; if there is no overriding value for a particular symbol,
the loaded symset value is used; if there is no symset entry
loaded for the symbol then a default symbol is used.
Noticed while investigating the message loop. If I had level files
from an interrupted game and was asked "Destroy old game?" when
starting a new one, answering 'n' left the terminal in an unusable
state. Executing 'stty sane' (invisibly since input echo was off)
repaired things but the user shouldn't have to do that.
Change unixtty.c's error() to shut down windowing if that has been
initialized. This might need some tweaking for tty, which will now
clear the screen before showing the startup error message. Other
systems besides unix use unixtty.c so are affected, but I think the
change doesn't introduce anything that should cause trouble (aside
from the potential screen erasure).
I had this in place at one point but must have accidentally undone it
before deciding that yesterday's patch was finished. Defer fetching
'pw' until it's needed.
Fixes#26
Report stated that the attempt to look up the player's username
(on Unix) failed (reason unknown) and nethack refused to allow the
player to execute the #explore command even though sysconf was set
to use character names (CHECK_PLNAME=1) instead of user names.
Setting EXPLORERS to "*" overcomes this glitch, but the fix moves
a bit of code around to honor CHECK_PLNAME before fetching username
so that that isn't necessary.
I ended up doing some formattng clean up (replace tabs with spaces,
whitespace cleanup in 'port_insert_pastebuf()'). The actual change
to fix#26 is only a few lines.
Another part of github issue 227. Casting a function pointer when
passing it to another function is iffy when lying about the return
type. tputs() expects a routine which returns int, so give it one.
Other xputc() usage is equivalent to putchar(), so define xputc()
with the same function signature as that has.
The tputs() declarations in system.h should probably be changed
(third argument is a function which takes an int rather than
unspecified parameters) but I've left them alone. I made that change
to tputs() in sys/share/tclib.c though.
NT and MSDOS changes are untested. tclib.c compiles ok with clang-
as-gcc on OSX but hasn't been tested with the port that uses it (VMS).
Change all the POSTINSTALL 'mkfontdir' to 'mkfontdir -x .lev' although
the mkfontdir version on my system didn't think $(HACKDIR)/*.lev were
font files when I built without dlb.
Also change the PREINSTALL 'cp -n win/X11/nethack.rc ~/.nethackrc' to
keep going if it fails. The linux hints use 'cp -n' for sysconf but
since it is doing so for the playground directory and 'make install'
starts out by clearing away everything in that directory, it shouldn't
fail. But some extra bullet proofing there may be warranted. Only
the initial cp is protected against clobbering an existing file; the
ownership+permission fixups that are applied to the copy of original
file still get applied to an existing one.
travis recently changed linux default dist from trusty to xenial, and bionic is next
include an additional travis linux build under bionic to eliminate surprises there
add a parameter to mkfontdir under linux to prevent it form going after .lev files
phase_of_moon and friday_13th determined using rn2() instead of local
time if fuzzing. Don't reseed using init_random() if fuzzing. Allow
set_random to be called outside of hacklib. rn2_on_display_rng uses
rn2 if fuzzing so that we have a single source of random that we can
ensure is reproducible. Implement rul() that returns a random unsigned
long. Fix bug in fuzzer handling of ntposkey which would cause us to use
unitialized values for x and y. Added command line arguments to allow
auto starting and stopping of fuzzer. Add a logging facility for the
fuzzer to use to record activity. Added some scripts used to automate
fuzzer testing on windows.
When stopping in the debugger after having called impossible, the windowing
state will have been modified since the assertion was hit. This made
examining state that caused the nhassert to fire no longer possible.
To avoid this issue, we now detect the debugger and stop in the debugger
prior to impossible.
The PDC_NCMOUSE has to be defined on the command line
or above the #include entries in win/curses/cursmisc.c.
This does the former command line change.
Only changes pm.h content if ENUM_PM is defined when compiling
util/makedefs.c
While NON_PM and LOW_PM could be included, it would require
for the makedefs.c compile, as well as an
around their macro definitions in permonst.h so for now those
particular lines are commented out in makedefs.c
There was a post-3.6.2 discussion on a forum where someone had
tried to copy the NetHack 3.6.2 exe file overtop of an
existing NetHack 3.6.0 playground, and then try to run it.
We have never suggested trying that, nor do we attempt to
provide any backward or forward compatibility between the
supporting files found in nhdat that would allow that. Any
particular version of NetHack expects to have matching
support files designed and matched to that version.
This adds optional support for helping to prevent the
opening of nhdat containing support files from an
unmatched version of NetHack.
If you #define VERSION_IN_DLB_FILENAME in your
platform's include/*conf.h file, it will use a
name such as nhdat362, instead of plain nhdat, and
will exit more gracefully than the fault/crash
mentioned in the discussion if it doesn't find the
file it is looking for.
Developers - please note that if you do
to cause NetHack to look for an nhdat* file with
the version info appended to the name, you will likely
have to modify your build/clean/spotless mechanics
beyond the C compile itself to properly deal with the
new generated file name.
Noticed while testing statuslines on a small terminal window. Using
the cursor to pick locations that panned the map to view a new subset
would end up showing a new view of the regular map rather than a
different section of what was currently displayed. For farlook that
caused monsters to take on new hallucinatory forms which was fairly
inconsequential, but for #terrain and various forms of detection it
reverted to the ordinary map instead of showing the map features that
the player requested or the temporarily revealed monsters and such.
Most interfaces keep track of the whole map and just show their view
of the new subset when panning, similar to redisplay after being
covered up and then re-exposed, but tty isn't doing that. I made
same change to Amiga as to tty since the code it was using was very
similar. I haven't touched any of the other interfaces and assume
that they don't need this. I've verified that curses and X11 don't.
Fix:

Change the test for whether fonts.dir exists (added to the script
in 3.6.0, for automatically setting up possible use of the NH10 font
under X11) from 'test -e file' to 'test -f file' since the latter
seems to be more universally available. When present, fonts.dir is
plain text, so a test for "exists and is a regular file" rather than
one for general existance is appropriate.
