• DOS version is uploaded

  I finally got a cross-compiler for DJGPP working, so I can make DOS versions of this program from within Linux! Another example of the coolness that is Free software.

  2003-06-29 Michael W. Olson <olsonm@bethelcollege.edu> * hangit: released as v0.7.0 * src/game.c (get_user_params): - new routine, replaces get_difficulty - wait for ENTER to be pressed (or ESC) and then set global vars based upon user entry - finally different drawings can be chosen (end_game): extend message-display ability * src/main.c (main): - new routine get_user_params will be called - now makes provision for commandline parameters, though nothing is done with them yet - removed all instances of 'hanglist' and 'hangchar' (process_params): new function will eventually handle commandline parameters (draw_graphics): needed to refresh hang_win 2003-06-28 Michael W. Olson <olsonm@bethelcollege.edu> * src/graphics.h: add prototypes for different figures * src/graphics.c (print_art): - add bounds check - new method of drawing stages (print_score): move score display back 4 spaces * src/main.c (init_hangit): use new LIVES_AVAIL const (make_screens): - adjust ascii window and coords - add hang_win window for easy display of gallows * src/defs.h (LIVES_AVAIL): new constant defining number of lives available * src/wordlist.c: removed debugging junk from wordlist defs 2003-05-28 Michael W. Olson <olsonm@bethelcollege.edu> * src/main.c: changed instances of __LINUX__ to ALLOW_RESIZING when dealing with portions of code that implemented resizing the screen * src/game.c: ditto * src/graphics.c: ditto * src/defs.h: ditto 2002-12-16 Michael W. Olson <mike@gnu.162036> * hangit: v0.6.0 released 2002-08-12 Michael W. Olson <mike@saved> * src/main.c: removed global var 'i' * src/*: indicated that a function took no parameters by putting 'void' in between the paretheses 2002-08-02 Michael W. Olson <mike@saved> * src/extutil.c (xfree): new function to safely free a var * src/graphics.c - got rid of 'screen' variable and used stdscr instead, which caused major change in the cose of other programs as well (init_curses): moved routine over from main.c (global_resize_screen): found the "one true" bit of code that finds the size of a terminal, taken from Ian Jackson's dpkg source * src/extutil.c: removed snprintf routine from this and all other files that used to require it. I realized that I had no real need of snprintf due to the impossibility of buffer overflow in my situation. 2002-02-01 Michael W.

• v0.7.0 released (multiple drawings to choose from, etc.)

  The highlights for this release are - multiple drawings to choose from (man, Tux the penguin, bill gate$, and a man from SCO, in honor of the recent lawsuit) - a brand new options screen with sensible defaults Problem: Since I'm currently _only_ using Linux, I still have to recompile gcc and binutils from scratch in order to build the dos versions of this program. In short: no dos version of the program has been posted yet. In a month's time, this should be corrected. If you have DJGPP, you could always build it from scratch, of course.
