The implementation was copied from rogue4. Using fdopen() is necessary
because the scorefile needs both encread() and encwrite(). For some
reason I have failed to discover, one of them uses FILE *'s and the
other uses file descriptors.
If SCOREFILE is not defined, roguehome() is called to find a directory
for the score file. It copies up to PATH_MAX-20 bytes from an
environment variable to a static buffer. Later these are strcpy()'d to
scorefile, which is of size LINLEN. Unfortunately LINLEN is 80 and
PATH_MAX is at least 256. On Linux, it happens to be 4096.
I haven't yet managed to crash or exploit it, but there are surely no
beneficial consequences, so roguehome() has been modified to check the
length, and the string it returns is also checked in main().
md_shellescape() sets SIGINT and SIGQUIT to be ignored, storing the
previous handlers, and restores them after the shell exits. But it
mixed up the two handlers.
Since the signals were usually handled by the same function, this fix
doesn't have much effect, but anything that makes signal code less
confusing is a good thing.
The player name is stored in whoami[], which is length 80 in most games
(1024 in rogue5). Only the first 10 chars were used to create
file_name, because that buffer is the same length. Increasing the size
of file_name to 256 permits using all of whoami.
The name is also no longer truncated to 20 chars when writing the log.
All games should now be able to handle 79-character names without
collisions. Anything more would break save compatibility.
Some .o files need to be rebuilt if config.h changes. Adding it to the
list of headers may still fail to solve the problem, because some of
the Makefiles use implicit rules or do not list dependencies properly.
In all games, rs_write_room_reference() stored -1 for a nonexistent
room, but rs_read_room_reference() did not check for out-of-bounds
values, leading to pointers to rooms[-1], which sometimes caused
crashes. rs_read_room_reference() has now been modified to use NULL
instead.
Some of the games required further changes to replace NULL with the
pointer to the actual room. Others are capable of handling NULL for
objects not in any room.
Super-Rogue, like Rogue V4, stored data of machine-dependent length in
the savefile, to prevent cheating. This made saved games non-portable.
Also deleted was a check that used this data, and prevented restoring
savefiles from backup.
This change BREAKS SAVEFILE COMPATIBILITY, but old files can be
converted by removing the block at offset 0x1e with length
sizeof(ino_t) + sizeof(dev_t) + 2 * sizeof(time_t). That seems to be
0x14 on i686 and 0x20 on x86_64.
