I haven't done a lot of maintenance in the last longish while, but I'm going to be doing none for the next 6 months of so; I'm travelling internationally. I will be unemployed when I return, so I'll probably get some more code changes in then.

Have a superb trip. Can you post a link to the latest version(s) before you go? Happy to mirror them in case the server dies while you're away ..."Been away so long I hardly knew the place, gee it's good to be back home" - The Beatles -

I'd be interested in your opinion on this thread. In particular, Sangband has display modes that no other variant has.One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

its been forever and a day since i played sang, and yes, the display system is great and unique. personally thats my favorite part, i'm not in love wth the idea of skills in lieu of classes. i'd very much like to see the display options in other variants, and even vanilla. is one of them tile walls and ascii everything else? i think that one was my favorite look everComment

The single-window mode has received a fair bit of criticism (though part of that is the difficulty in configuring). Personally, I have no strong feeling about this. I don't know how hard it is to port to a library.
As I mentioned in the thread, I approve of the project. There is no reason why Sangband couldn't be included in the project, though there might be some Sangband-specific files.

Vista & Extended Fonts
I know you're not much of a display guy, but if you would happen to be able to fix Vista support for Extended Fonts mode...
There was a thread about it here ages ago, and somebody mentioned a download to fix the problem, but the download lost its hosting pretty quickly.
Also, S seems -- seems -- to run into trouble with UAC on Vista, since it never remembers my name and setting.
Sorry I'm not being very clear. I just wanted to speak now so that I not need forever hold my peace.So you ride yourselves over the fields and you make all your animal deals and your wise men don't know how it feels to be thick as a brick.Comment
