There are a couple of minor bugs in hack 1.0.2 and 1.0.3 that I
haven't seen mentioned. Neither seriously affects the play of
the game.
Makefile:
The makefile assumes that . is in the search list for commands. If
it isn't, it bombs out when trying to run makedefs.
Fix: Change the makedefs to ./makedefs in the makefile.
Tab expantion:
Hack 1.0.0 didn't work on terminals that used tab for something other
than move to the left the apropriate amount. This was fixed by 1.0.2
by turning off tab expantion when setting up the terminal modes.
This causes tabs not to be expanded when getting help from hack.
Since the help and hh files do contain tabs as distributed, they arn't
easy to read from hack on terminals that need tab expantion.
Fix: Either expand the tabs in the help and hh files, or have whatever
function displays the help restore tab expantion for the durration of
the help (?) command.
