Information on main screen

[Mark]

The main screen on Angband shows me information about my player.

Level, XP to next Level, Gold, Stats, AC, HP, SP.

But nothing about my melee attack, which is arguably more significant than some of things it does show me.

Would adding either "Melee: +X, +Y" or Average Dmg/Round information on the main screen be possible. Would be nice to see the difference changing weapon, reaching level 10,20,30,etc, blessing, heroism, stunning, etc has on these stats as they happen.

Detailed melee damage is available by 'I'nspecting your weapon. The main character screen doesn't really have enough space to give the level of detail required unless you only want to show average damage against enemies that no slays apply to. That said, I thought there was a Melee entry that shows your +to-hit and +to-dam in melee?

Melee is shown on the Character Sheet, but not the next-to-the-map HeadsUp.

Maybe it could be one of the window options? You can currently set a window to show the info for whatever-item-you-last-interacted-with.

A variant of xtra3.c/update_object_subwindow that uses p_ptr->inventory[INVEN_WIELD] instead of p_ptr->object_idx would probably do the trick if you wanted to hack it into your own install.
