I have been using customized (ANSI-) prompts in DOS for years, and I just found out that DOSBox doesn't support prompts other than the good old "$p$g" (i.e. "C:\foo\bar>".
So here's my attempt at a patch which fixes that. I don't remember all DOS substitutions so I instead took the ones that I remembered ($p, $g, $l, $e) and filled it up with those from windows XP.
The patch is pretty...

Any plans to support the full R5RS numerical tower in TinyScheme? Or at least numbers with arbitrary length? Fractions could wait, but being able to do (* 123456789 123456789) would be a good thing :)
If there are no plans I might go ahead and try it myself. Things needed: a new "num" datatype (array/string based, probably), add, sub, mul, div, rem, mod, ... for this datatype, and the ggt...

I just created this small patch to add support for a second charset to nazghul. It can be used for example for rune support in the console.
I changed ascii.c to accept a new escape sequence ^R to turn on runic mode and ^r to turn it off again. The charset must be set as kernel parameter "ascii-rune-image-filename". I didn't include a changed .png file in the diff because I have not finished a...

Currently (CVS rev. ), mingw build is broken due to missing source files in Makefile and missing defines in config.h
This patch fixes both.
I also changed "-lzlib" to "-lz" because on my fresh installation of MinGW+MSYS, that's what the library is called (libz.a instead of libzlib.a)
I also changed the include dirs, this change could probably be removed, it's because I built the...

Good idea. Especially if you couldn't initially see everything but only the stuff you already explored.
It would be possible to create a new item type "map" which you could buy from merchants and which would reveal a certain part of the map.
(I see the save data exploding already... if you'd have to save a bitfield for each map already in the game, that would probably double he savegame size)

I think a questlog would also be a good idea. Each quest you accept would add some text to the log, probably including the name and location (town name or region name -- see my other suggestion for region names ;-) and when you complete it, the text is removed (or, alternatively, move to another section of "completed quests" in the log)

I think the following idea could add a lot to the immersion effect of the game.
How about making it possible to create "regions" on a map, which can be layerd, and which each have a descriptive name.
A small example:
I have a wilderness map. On the map there's a small forest with a dirt path leading through it. And maybe a small clearing by the path.
I would define a "region" which...

Hi
(please excuse me if I'm writing some obiously wrong things here; I found out about nazghul only yesterday and I'm still browsing through the source to understand 100% how it works)
This can probably be done in a half-elegant way. In other games (MMORPGs for example) this is something called a "Proc". Another name would be "Trigger", however, that's already taken ;-)
A Proc is...

okay, obviously I meant instead of .
I'm using MSVC8 (MSVC 2005).
I might take another look and put the "#include " into the .cpp files instead of a global header, I guess that's the better solution.

The third patch for the Core/ directory.
This fixes some local (temporary) variables which are of the wrong type (i.e. char * instead of const char *).
For example this one (where s is of type const char *)
-char *s2 = strchr(s,',');
+const char *s2 = strchr(s,',');.
