There should only be two changes in behavior:
arogue7/fight.c, arogue7/fight.c: a to-hit bonus is now correctly
applied to characters who are not monks instead of monks who are not
empty-handed.
urogue/fight.c: fixed an interaction with the "debug" macro that could
cause the wrong message to be displayed.
Some games' implementation of md_hasclreol() poked around in ncurses
internals, which does not work for some ncurses build configuration.
Most games did not actually call md_hasclreol(), so it was removed.
There is a standard terminfo function which can retrieve the value of
the clr_eol capability, so this was used for rogue5.
The function wrapped the standard putchar(), doing nothing beside
discarding the return value. That could cause problems with tputs(),
which expects an int to be returned.
The new function md_random_seed() has replaced time() + getpid() and
similar methods. Putting everything in mdport.c slightly reduces the
warnings and workarounds.
Converting all function definitions to ANSI style accounts for most of
the change. This has exposed other problems, such as daemons not
actually being their stated type, that will require more careful
solutions.
Using MSVC with pdcurses, curses.h has to be included after windows.h
and before process.h. This is apparently because bool is now a
built-in type which pdcurses is not allowed to redefine. But I don't
entirely understand how the headers are interacting, and I don't think
the MSDN page does either.
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.
md_readchar() mapped KEY_BACKSPACE to CTRL-H, but get_str(), which
handles prompts for strings, only backs up when it receives the erase
character. The key should be mapped to md_erasechar().
This fixes Red Hat Bugzilla #847852.
