Here is a list of fixes for bugs and non-portable items found in my
rogue clone.  Many thanks to those who reported the problems, I would
appreciate any further reports, particularly if the stuff below does
not fix what it is intended to fix.

	----------------------------------------------------

 1.)    To implement the ',' command, which allows the rogue to pick up
        an item he is currently standing on, do the following:
            a.)   Add the following case into the large switch statement
                  in the routine play_level() in play.c:
                  case ',':
                        kick_into_pack();
                        break;
            b.)  Add the following routine at the bottom of pack.c:

kick_into_pack()
{
    object *obj;
    char desc[DCOLS];
    short n, stat;

    if (!(dungeon[rogue.row][rogue.col] & OBJECT)) {
        message("nothing here", 0);
    } else {
        if (obj = pick_up(rogue.row, rogue.col, &stat)) {
            get_desc(obj, desc);
            if (obj->what_is == GOLD) {
                message(desc, 0);
                free_object(obj);
            } else {
                n = strlen(desc);
                desc[n] = '(';
                desc[n+1] = obj->ichar;
                desc[n+2] = ')';
                desc[n+3] = 0;
                message(desc, 0);
            }
        }
        if (obj || (!stat)) {
            (void) reg_move();
        }
    }
}

 2.)    In score.c, there is a bug.  In the routine get_value(), add the
        following case to the existing switch statement:

        case RING:
            val = id_rings[wc].value * (obj->class + 1);
            break;

 3.)    In message.c, change any occurrence of %D to %ld, for portability.

 4.)    In message.c, there is a line that looks like:

        sprintf(buf, "%d", rogue.gold);
        or
        sprintf(buf, "%D", rogue.gold);

        Change this line to:

        sprintf(buf, "%ld", rogue.gold);

        Do the same for the line in score.c, in the routine killed_by(),
        which looks like this:

        sprintf(buf+strlen(buf), "%d gold", rogue.gold);

        That is, change the %d (or %D) to %ld.

 5.)    In message.c, delete the line in rgetchar(), that looks like this:

            printf(CL);

        if CL is undefined during compilation.

 6.)    Delete the routine free_free_list() in object.c, and any calls to it.

 7.)    In the Makefile, UNIX_SYSV (system V) folks may not need -ltermlib.
        And folks with Microport sysV for PC/AT's will need to link with -Ml.

 8.)    In move.c, in the function gr_dir(), add break clauses to each of
        the cases in the switch statement.  This is a bug.

 9.)    In init.c, change the global variable restore_file to rest_file, as
        well as all occurrences of that variable in init.c.
        This keeps some linkers from confusing the name 'restore_file' with
        the routine called 'restore' in save.c.

10.)    Replace your version of the function get_rand() in random.c with
        the version given below.  This is extremely important for machines
        with 16-bit (as opposed to 32-bit) integers.

get_rand(x, y)
register int x, y;
{
    register int r, t;
    long lr;

    if (x > y) {
        t = y;
        y = x;
        x = t;
    }
    lr = rrandom();
    lr &= (long) 0x00007fff;
    r = (int) lr;
    r = (r % ((y - x) + 1)) + x;
    return(r);
}

11.)    In level.c, replace the declaration and initialization of
        random_rooms with the following:

        short random_rooms[MAXROOMS] = {3, 7, 5, 2, 0, 6, 1, 4, 8};

		This is probably just cosmetic.

12.)    In zap.c, replace the function tele_away() with the following version:

tele_away(monster)
object *monster;
{
    short row, col;

    if (monster->m_flags & HOLDS) {
        being_held = 0;
    }
    gr_row_col(&row, &col, (FLOOR | TUNNEL | STAIRS | OBJECT));
    mvaddch(monster->row, monster->col, monster->trail_char);
    dungeon[monster->row][monster->col] &= ~MONSTER;
    monster->row = row; monster->col = col;
    dungeon[row][col] |= MONSTER;
    monster->trail_char = mvinch(row, col);
    if (detect_monster || rogue_can_see(row, col)) {
        mvaddch(row, col, gmc(monster));
    }
}

 13.)    In init.c, replace the function start_window() with the following
version:

start_window()
{
	crmode();
	noecho();
#ifndef BAD_NONL
	nonl();
#endif BAD_NONL
	md_control_keybord(0);
}

        The symbol BAD_NONL is to be defined during compilation on systems
	whose curses library has a buggy nonl() function/macro.  This may
	be noticed if the game draws things on the wrong lines, particularly
	during score file display.  Nonl() is not really necessary, although
	it is a nice optimization for curses.

 14.) In the routine inventory() in inventory.c:

	for (j = 1; j < i; j++) {
		mvaddstr(j, col, descs[j-1]);
	}

should be changed to:

	for (j = 1; ((j < i) && (j < DROWS)); j++) {
		mvaddstr(j, col, descs[j-1]);
	}

	This might cause some problems if the player fills his pack and has no
	duplicate items.  The inventory, plus prompt line, would go one line
	past the status line.

 15.) Some compilers are sensitive about names after a #endif, e.g.
	#ifdef NAME
	#endif NAME
If this happens to you, simply change #endif NAME to #endif /* NAME */.

 16.) [Optional] For general cleanup, in rogue.h insert the following
	just prior to the #endif CURSES line (at the end of the file):

	#else
	#include <curses.h>

Then delete the three lines:

	#ifndef CURSES
	#include <curses.h>
	#endif CURSES

that appear at the top of every file except main.c, random.c and ring.c.

 17.) Replace the file machdep.c with the one included in this posting.

 18.) Create a new file "patchlevel.h" that has a single line in it:

	#define PATCHLEVEL 1
