And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.

possible.

long to load large SGF files when you used Java 1.5. "Extremely" here
means, I left it running for hours, it was still not loaded...well, it
was loaded, but the display of the game map still wasn't done.

spotted more easily.

certain text fields.

simply does not happen on my system, no idea why, but I've moved the

wide. Hopefully this will solve the problem.
Features Added
--------------
C13 - Added "merge tool" to SGF editor when doing offline editing
C13 - Change replay game system so that KGS Plus games are available
for replay forever, as long as you always renew your subscription. If
you let your subscription expire, then when you resubscribe, you only
get to see the lectures since you last signed up.
C13 - Have client track when you signed up for KGS Plus and disable
playbacks that aren't available to you.
C13 - Added icons for admins, assistants, censors, and tournament winners.
C13 - Made java 1.5 web start once again let you put in desktop shortcuts.
C13 - If you use java 1.5 with web start, it will now associate .SGF
files with itself so clicking on such a file will automatically open CGoban.

so if you use the java web start with java 1.5, then it will only run
one version of cgoban, even if you open many SGF files or open a file

this was too nasty for those players unfortunate enough to come up

* Corrected a rather nasty bug, which eg. made infravision useless

have caused random crashes when changing levels)

turns, though)

Attnam but is cheaper

the local sumo champion Huang Ming Pong (I will not list all the
meticulous details of the associated events here)

fight
* The banana growers now feed the sumo wrestler regularily
* It now rains in the village occasionally
* Lowered the player's starting money

past lives; also their names now depend on them

(not just an adjacent one), and masters any corpse in the level

December 16 2003 Timo Kiviluoto <firstname.lastname@hut.fi>
* Adjusted the colors of menus and lists so that the selected item is
more clearly visible on dark monitors

* Necromancer, bourgeois tourist, his wife and child, and Lenin added to
humanoid.pcx by Kahvi
* Necromancer graphics integrated
* Two spider webs added to effect.pcx by Kahvi
* Remade felist entry picture drawing system; browsing an enormous inventory
(for instance after using the gain all items cheat) is now a lot faster
* A small typo in the look description of neutral panicked NPCs corrected
* Added a super-fast system for retrieving random pixels for which a certain
predicate (say, non-transparency) is true; I plan to use a similiar
algorithm for level::RandomSquare in the future
* Documented stack.h/cpp and fluid.h/cpp
* Added ironalloy material category which currently consists of iron, steel,
meteoric steel and adamant
* Iron alloys can now rust; names and strength values are affected
* Rusting is now displayed graphically as random brown pixels

to rust for liquids and how easily rusting happens for ironalloys
* Golems and terrains made of ironalloys can also rust
* Scroll of repair can now remove rust
* Renamed class human to playerkind
* Rewrote the player's armor drawing code; it was probably the most horrible
gum solution in the entire game
* Added several item database members to control which armor pictures
are to be drawn
* Added (half-accidentally) support for armor picture animations
* The Shirt of the Golden Eagle now gives the player an appropriate blue aura
when worn
* The priority map trickery which is used to determine the special effect
drawing order of humanoids is now completely incomprehensible
* Remade the whole fluid code: it now utilizes the full power of IVAN's
material system
* Liquids on ground can now cause effects to legs/other bodyparts
* An arbitrary number of fluids can now cover weapons, armor and
bodyparts; graphical effects added to item pictures
* Fluids can now affect the items and bodyparts they cover
* Removed the obsolete ContainedMaterial of weapons
* Fluid is now displayed over wielded, armor and bodypart graphics
for playerkinds; however I chose not to show them for other monsters
since it could cause many characters to be drawn very unclearly
from the user's perpective
* Added a dripping animation for all fluids not on ground
* Damaging a monster with a weapon now causes blood to be spilled
over the item used
* Dipping to solid materials is alas no longer possible; however, I
haven't done this since 0.311 so it isn't so great a loss
* Liquids can now exist on non-walkable terrain and affect them.
For instance you can destroy walls using acid (see below).
However, there is a small problem that liquids can be seen from
all sides of the terrain which can be strange if it is a part of a
long wall separating parallel tunnels
* Fluids can now emit light (but this feature is not yet used)
* A potion which breaks due to hitting an object now spills half of
its contents to the next square on its theoretical line of flight
* Fluids affected by paranormal gravitational distractions now land
correctly on the players face, if he/she/it has one
* Corpses now spill blood, not just severed bodyparts
* Added acid effects which are based on the Acidicity material database
member; acidous fluids cause items to break and can destroy very weak
broken items, and they also tend to be very rusting
* Added IsImmuneToAcid material database boolean
* Dark frog blood and pepsi are now acidous
* Remade the vomit system; the amount of liquid now depends on the body
volume of the character and it can be targeted to adjacent squares
and used as a very poor acid-based weapon
* Added BloodMaterial and VomitMaterial character database members
* Mommos now really attack by vomiting acidous slime, which also has
a high RustModifier
* Oree's vomit attack now really spills acidous blood over the player
* M-color 3 of arm pictures is henceforth allocated for gauntlets;
some humanoid graphics updated due to this
* Zombies now spoil
November 8 2003 Heikki Sairanen <firstname.lastname@tut.fi>
* feio.cpp documented
August 31 2003 Heikki Sairanen <heikki.sairanen@phpoint.net>
* Now compiles with gcc
* Added necromancers
* Mushrooms inherit their stats.
* Atavus gives player a banana at XMas. Banana should probably be changed to something else.
August 14 2003 Heikki Sairanen <heikki.sairanen@phpoint.net>
* Certain small changes to mihail so it know finds it's missing FeLib...
Added instructions to create symbolic link to FeLib, if it isn't distributed for the user.
August 14 2003 Timo Kiviluoto <markku.kiviluoto@sono.fimnet.fi>
* Added some comments to the Febot code
* Hex's new MIHAIL version added to CVS
August 14 2003 Timo Kiviluoto <markku.kiviluoto@sono.fimnet.fi>
* iosystem::StringQuestion now takes the destination string as an argument
and returns whether the user aborted the question or not
* Configuration system has been standardized and moved largely to FeLib
* Added Febot engine which can be used by the Oracle of the Holy Haven of Gurus
when the time comes
Changes include:
* remove lrint(), which is unused, and collides with the C99 lrint().
* remove malloc() prototypes, which are incorrect
* add include search path to CFLAGS to catch Mandrake's termcap.h
* in the case of Linux, define GETOPT, to match glibc
Scid is a chess database application. With Scid you can maintain a
database of chess games, search games by many criteria, view graphical
trends, and produce printable reports on players and openings. You can
also analyze games with the chess program Scidlet or any other
WinBoard-compatible chess engine, and even use Scid to study endings
with endgame tablebases. There are many more features as well.
Notable changes:
* Fixed cave map generation bug that made Scepter of Fire unplayable.
* Heir to the Throne campaign made easier on EASY level.
* Translation updates.
(Because it could be bison -y and flex.)
The build uses yacc and lex so USE_GNU_TOOLS. (Note that
USE_GNU_TOOLS is broken, so now on NetBSD this will use bison -y instead
of native yacc.)
Also set YACC in MAKE_ENV.
This is partial fix for PR #pkg/29388. (The remaining problem
is that mk/tools.mk assumes that yacc is already installed
so YACC is never set to "bison -y" as needed.)

XEvil is a 3rd person, side-view, fast-action, kill-them-before-they-kill-you
game. Fight against either computer-controlled enemies, or another player.
You sinned in life. And now you must pay. Satan pits the recently deceased
against each other to fight for rank in Hell. Your skill determines your fate
for all eternity. This contest is known as XEvil.
C13 - Pause, Fast forward, & slider added to playback games.
C13 - When you set up a challenge as ranked that cannot be ranked (due
to board size or time or whatever), it no longer creates a
popup. Instead, sets the rank type to "Free", turns it blue, and makes
the tooltip be a description of why playing ranked is impossible.

Cube is an open source multiplayer and singleplayer first person shooter
game built on an entirely new and very unconventional engine. Cube is
a landscape-style engine that pretends to be an indoor FPS engine, which
combines very high precision dynamic occlusion culling with a form of
geometric mipmapping on the whole world for dynamic LOD for configurable
fps & graphic detail on most machines. Uses OpenGL & SDL.
Allows in-engine editing of geometry in full 3D (you fly around the map,
point / drag stuff to select it / modify it), which can even be done
simultaneously with others in multiplayer (a first!). Has simplistic but
effective fine grain vertex lighting that looks like lightmapping and can
do dynamic lights & shadows. Doesn't need any kind of map precompilation,
even lighting is done on the fly. Has very simplistic quad-tree world
structure that can do slopes (heightfields with caps) and slants, water,
does decent collision detection & physics, has client/server networking that
goes a long way in giving a lag-free game experience, and features a
Doom/Quake-style singleplayer (2 game modes, savegames) and multiplayer
(12 game modes, master server / server browser, demo recording) game with
some uncompromising brutal oldskool gameplay.
Kajaani Kombat is a funny multiplayer game... and much more! It is
a Rampart-like game (old arcade classic) set in space.
Every player has a castle demarked by walls, and cannons to shoot
at other player's castles. After the shooting phase there is a
repair phase where one has to rebuild the walls such that one there
is an area completely encased by walls (without holes). If one
doesn't succeed with this, one loses.
Kajaani Kombat is playable with two to four players, over the
internet or alternatively two players sharing one computer. It is
also possible to play over the internet with, for example, 4 players
of which two are sharing the same computer. Enjoy it with your
friends!

XSC is a clone of the old Star Castle video game by Cinematronics.
Most of the details are from memory and a few old video game books
I have kicking around from the golden days. This is just a fun
hack that I've been working on off and on for quite a long time.
I don't have any grand plans for it, except to hack on it when I
feel like it. It's always good to have something like this available
when you feel like flying around and blasting the crap out of some
alien bad guy for a few minutes.

under share/examples/rc.d. The variable name already was named

This is from ideas from Greg Woods and others.
Also bumped PKGREVISION for all packages using RCD_SCRIPTS mechanism
(as requested by wiz).
Ultima 7, an RPG from the early 1990's, still has a huge following.
But, being a DOS game with a very nonstandard memory manager, it
is difficult to run it on the latest computers. Exult is a project
to create an Ultima 7 game engine that runs on modern operating
systems, capable of using the data and graphics files that come
with the game.
Exult is written in C++ and runs on, at least, Linux, Mac OS X and
Windows using the SDL library to make porting to other platforms
relatively easy. The current version supports all of "Ultima 7:
The Black Gate" and "Ultima 7 part 2: The Serpent Isle", allowing
you to finish both games. This is only possible due to the work
done by other fans who have decoded the various Ultima 7 data files,
especially Gary Thompson, Maxim Shatskih, Jakob Shonberg, and Wouter
Dijkslag.
Exult aims to let those people who own Ultima 7 (copyright 1993)
play the game on modern hardware, in as close to (or perhaps even
surpassing) its original splendor as is possible. You need to own
"Ultima 7: The Black Gate" and/or "Ultima 7: Serpent Isle" and
optionally the add-ons (not required to run) in order to use Exult,
and we encourage you to buy a legal copy.

Bugs Fixed
----------
- Announcements in games now get a "\n" at the end.
Features Added
--------------
- Rank added to saved KGS Plus lecture list.
Changes:
* atlantik: fix problems with accepting invitations
* atlantik: put player views in a scrollview
* atlantik: show correct amount of players in trade widget
2004 Oct 21: version 1.2.1
* Introduced a basic stepping-control UI, and added stepping information to
the solution file format.
* Fixed a bug (MS logic) reported by David Stolp, involving blocks going
out and back into the slip list so quickly that they weren't sent to the
end of the list.
* Fixed a bug (MS logic) reported by David Stolp where block and creatures
were not moving into key tiles if the bottom tile prevented it (e.g. a
wall).
* Fixed a bug in sdltext.c, reported by Dale Bryan caused a segfault in
16-bit color mode.
* Added -r (read-only) cmdline option.
2004 Oct 04: version 1.2.0
* Fixed a bug (MS logic) preventing cloned tanks from turning around when
they hadn't yet left the clone machine.
* Fixed another longstanding bug (MS logic) involving a tank indirectly
pushing a blue button. Again, the bug was fixed explicitly instead of
trying to make the behavior arise naturally from the code.
* Improved some of the behavior of blocks being pushed (Lynx logic).
* Improved some of the behavior of blocked teleports (Lynx logic).
* Altered animations to run for either 11 or 12 frames, depending on the
parity of their initial frame, as discovered by ccexplore. (This finally
killed the nine-lived clone-boosting bug in ICEHOUSE!) Also modified the
point during the frame when animations get removed.
* Changed the Lynx walker to use a PRNG equivalent to the original, as
worked out by ccexplore.
* Fixed bug (MS logic) in how a block is removed from the slip list when
being pushed by Chip (reported by Shmuel Siegel).
* Fixed bug (MS logic) with deferred button presses; TW was incorrectly
deferring Chip's button presses and not just those caused by block
pushing.
* Fixed a horrid bug when encountering bogus values in a dat file. (The
code was meant to gracefully ignore the broken level and continue reading
the next level, but it failed to move the file position out of the broken
level before doing so.)
* Fixed keyboard routines so that they now understand characters as well as
keystrokes (thus e.g. the program recognizes "?" when entered on a
European keyboard).
* Added a help screen for the initial file menu.
* A few other minor bug fixes and miscellaneous improvements.
Aisleriot:
- Fix the end of game check for Odessa.
Ataxx:
- Fix a crasher on 64-bit machines.

Changes from version 2.6.5 to 2.6.6 (Released 2004-10-27)
Bugs Fixed
----------
S - Fixed a server bug that would sometimes make it crash on shutdown
(luckily the crash would happen after all data needed had been written
out, so it was harmless but annoying.)
C13 - Got the "change whose move" control working again.
C13 - Added a tool tip for the "no chats" button.
C13 - Fixed rating system issue. Broke rating system in the
process. Ranks are now much too stable. Sorry, will be fixed when possible.
S - When the teacher leaves, the chat mode of the game will now revert
to normal.
S - Added tests to ensure that game state only changes when game mutex
is held (server crash looks like it was caused by a game changing
state when mutex wasn't held).
C13 - No longer tells you how to upgrade an applet when you are using a
non-applet client.
S - Fixed a bug that caused several crashes recently (caused a loop in
the linked list of clients needing data written).
Features Added
--------------
S - Added throttling of comments sent to teachers in moderated mode.
S,C13 - You can now undo in tournaments, but only when you are marking
stones dead.
