The previous version dealt adequately with rectangles _partially_ overlapping the edge of the canvas, but doesn't correctly handle a rectangle that's completely out of bounds in one direction. Replace with a complete rewrite which is more easily seen to be correct. Also, while I'm at it, add a missing condition to draw_update() so that we don't even bother calling the Javascript half of it on any rectangle that's been trimmed into nonexistence. [originally from svn r9800]
This is the README accompanying the source code to Simon Tatham's puzzle collection. The collection's web site is at <http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/puzzles/>. If you've obtained the source code by downloading a .tar.gz archive from the Puzzles web site, you should find several Makefiles in the source code. However, if you've checked the source code out from the Puzzles Subversion repository, you won't find the Makefiles: they're automatically generated by `mkfiles.pl', so run that to create them. The Makefiles include: - `Makefile' should work under GNU make on Linux, provided you have GTK installed to compile and link against. It builds GTK binaries of the puzzle games. - `Makefile.vc' should work under MS Visual C++ on Windows. - `Makefile.cyg' should work under Cygwin / MinGW. With appropriate tweaks and setting of TOOLPATH, it should work for both compiling on Windows and cross-compiling on Unix. - `Makefile.osx' should work under Mac OS X, provided the Xcode tools are installed. It builds a single monolithic OS X application capable of running any of the puzzles, or even more than one of them at a time. - `Makefile.wce' should work under MS eMbedded Visual C++ on Windows and the Pocket PC SDK; it builds Pocket PC binaries. Many of these Makefiles build a program called `nullgame' in addition to the actual game binaries. This program doesn't do anything; it's just a template for people to start from when adding a new game to the collection, and it's compiled every time to ensure that it _does_ compile and link successfully (because otherwise it wouldn't be much use as a template). Once it's built, you can run it if you really want to (but it's very boring), and then you should ignore it. DO NOT EDIT THE MAKEFILES DIRECTLY, if you plan to send any changes back to the maintainer. The makefiles are generated automatically by the Perl script `mkfiles.pl' from the file `Recipe' and the various .R files. If you need to change the makefiles as part of a patch, you should change Recipe, *.R, and/or mkfiles.pl. The manual is provided in Windows Help format for the Windows build; in text format for anyone who needs it; and in HTML for the Mac OS X application and for the web site. It is generated from a Halibut source file (puzzles.but), which is the preferred form for modification. To generate the manual in other formats, rebuild it, or learn about Halibut, visit the Halibut website at <http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/halibut/>.
