front end using GNUstep, yielding a Unix program built from the same
code. Should make it easier to check OS X behaviour without having to
move as far as a Mac :-) However, it doesn't compile as is, so I'll
apply fixes to the code until it does.

version.{i386,ppc}.o, causing both to be compiled as version.o and
dependent build steps to fail.)

of basically unchanged binaries due to the compulsory rebuild of
version.o. version.o now depends normally on version2.def, which is
constructed using much the same if statements that version.o used to
use, except that it's not overwritten at all if its contents don't
need to change.

generate lots of games, extract the aux strings from the game
generator, and de-obfuscate them in order to measure statistical

generates PPC/Intel dual-architecture binaries.
This turns out not to be too painful: you compile and link your
programs using `gcc -arch ppc' or `gcc -arch i386', then you use a
command of the form `lipo -create ppc-binary i386-binary -output
binary' to construct a universal binary. It works equally well on
command-line standalone executable files and the executables within
application directories. Also added the -mmacosx-version-min option,
since otherwise the OS X build tools appear to default to building
binaries which will crash (without anything resembling a
comprehensible error message) on any earlier release.
The handling of version.o in this checkin is somewhat grotty. I'd
prefer a method more cleverly intertwingled with mkfiles.pl so I
didn't have to maintain the OS X architecture list in both
mkfiles.pl and Recipe. (Not that I anticipate Apple switching
architectures again in the immediate future, but it's the principle
of the thing.)
[originally from svn r7916]
is mostly done with ifdefs in windows.c; so mkfiles.pl generates a
new makefile (Makefile.wce) and Recipe enables it, but it's hardly
any different from Makefile.vc apart from a few definitions at the
top of the files.
Currently the PocketPC build is not enabled in the build script, but
with any luck I'll be able to do so reasonably soon.
[originally from svn r7337]
Windows puzzle binaries. This checkin involves several distinct
changes:
- mkfiles.pl now has an extra feature: if an object file is listed
in Recipe with a trailing question mark, it will be considered
optional, and silently dropped from the makefile if its primary
source file isn't present at the time mkfiles.pl runs. This means
people who check out the puzzles from Subversion and just run
mkfiles.pl shouldn't get build failures; they just won't get the
icons.
- all the .R files now use this feature to include an optional
Windows resource file.
- the .rc resource source files are built by icons/Makefile.
- windows.c finds the icon if present and uses it in place of the
standard Windows application icon.
[originally from svn r7020]
when testing a new game, so here's a new architecture for the Recipe
file. mkfiles.pl now supports several new features:
- an `!include' directive, which accepts wildcards
- += to append to an existing object group definition
- the ability to divert output to an arbitrary file.
So now each puzzle has a `.R' file containing a fragment of Recipe
code describing that puzzle, and the central Recipe does `!include
*.R' to construct the Makefiles. That way, I can keep as many
experimental half-finished puzzles lying around my working directory
as I like, and I won't have to keep reverting Recipe when I check in
any other changes.
As part of this change, list.c is no longer a version-controlled
file; it's now constructed by mkfiles.pl, so that it too can take
advantage of this mechanism.
[originally from svn r6781]
maxflow.c. Also in this checkin, fixes to the OS X and GTK back ends
to get ALIGN_VNORMAL right. This is the first time I've used it! :-)
[originally from svn r6390]
a non-recursive level above Easy, which therefore moves the
recursive Hard mode further up still. Play-testing suggests that in
fact Tricky is often _harder_ than the old Hard mode, since the
latter had limited depth of recursion and would therefore spot
complex deductions only if it happened to start a recursion on the
right square; Tricky may be limited in the sophistication of its
complex deductions, but it never misses one, so its puzzles tend to
be hard all over.
Also in this checkin, a new source file `nullfe.c', containing all
the annoying stub functions required to make command-line solvers
link successfully. James wrote this for (the new) lightupsolver, and
I've used it to simplify the other stand-alone solvers.
[originally from svn r6254]
it had a command-line solver. In order to do this, I've had to
expose the internal region numbering because the solver has to have
some way to state which region it means; and in any case it's also
useful to have human-visible region numbering so that two people can
discuss a puzzle they're solving together. So pressing L during play
now toggles the display of region numbers; and `mapsolver' uses
those same numbers when showing its working and its solutions.
[originally from svn r6244]
place in r6190. I'm quite pleased that I didn't have to modify the
printing infrastructure _at all_ to make this work; the only source
change required outside windows.c was the addition of a trivial
utility function midend_get_params(), and that was for the benefit
of bulk puzzle generation rather than anything to do with actual
printing.
As far as I can tell, all printable puzzles now print almost
indistinguishably from the way they print under Unix. If you look
closely the font is slightly different, and the Windows standard
hatching doesn't seem to be quite as nice as the kind I did by hand
in ps.c (and, particularly annoyingly, hatched areas don't show up
at all for me when I print to a file and use gv, though they come
out fine on the printer itself); but it's all there, and it all
works.

as seen by the back ends from the one implemented by the front end,
and shoved a piece of middleware (drawing.c) in between to permit
interchange of multiple kinds of the latter. I've also added a
number of functions to the drawing API to permit printing as well as
on-screen drawing, and retired print.py in favour of integrated
printing done by means of that API.
The immediate visible change is that print.py is dead, and each
puzzle now does its own printing: where you would previously have
typed `print.py solo 2x3', you now type `solo --print 2x3' and it
should work in much the same way.
Advantages of the new mechanism available right now:
- Map is now printable, because the new print function can make use
of the output from the existing game ID decoder rather than me
having to replicate all those fiddly algorithms in Python.
- the new print functions can cope with non-initial game states,
which means each puzzle supporting --print also supports
--with-solutions.
- there's also a --scale option permitting users to adjust the size
of the printed puzzles.
Advantages which will be available at some point:
- the new API should permit me to implement native printing
mechanisms on Windows and OS X.
[originally from svn r6190]
(This puzzle is theoretically printable, but I haven't added it in
print.py since there's rather a lot of painful processing required
to get from the game ID to the puzzle's visual appearance. It
probably won't become printable unless I get round to implementing a
more integrated printing architecture.)

Also in this checkin (committed by mistake - I meant to do it
separately), a behind-the-scenes change to Slant to colour the two
non-touching classes of diagonals in different colours. Both colours
are set to black by default, but configuration by way of
SLANT_COLOUR_* can distinguish them if you want.

generation) from a simple but rather fun Flash game I saw this
morning.
Small infrastructure change for this puzzle: while most game
backends find the midend's assumption that Solve moves are never
animated to be a convenience absolving them of having to handle the
special case themselves, this one actually needs Solve to be
animated. Rather than break that convenience for the other puzzles,
I've introduced a flag bit (which I've shoved in mouse_priorities
for the moment, shamefully without changing its name).

command-line programs (solosolver, patternsolver, mineobfusc) to be
built as part of the normal Makefiles. This means mkfiles.pl now has
the capability to compile a source file more than once with
different #defines. Also, fixes for those auxiliary programs and one
fix in midend.c which the Borland compiler objected to while I was
testing its makefile generation.

platform-dependent code in puzzles.h (ick), which in turn depended
on the magic symbol MAC_OS_X being defined by mkfiles.pl itself
(yuck). Suddenly realised I can do much better simply by putting it
in an OS X makefile extras section in Recipe, and removing both
previous hacks. Much nicer.
