I thought I had posted this before but the
disaster over Texas has broken the day up a bit.

For a few hours an incorrect source code was
posted. It was only in the Linux code; the Windows
code was OK.

The proper code is now available. You can recognize
the proper code by the 'modified date' on LinScreen.cpp.
It should be 1/31/2003 8:33PM.

The dungeon 'poison' specifies floor decoration
number 3 at cell 2(22,18). There ain't no such
decoration. I have added code to check for illegal
floor decorations. You can find the new executable
at:
webpages.charter.net/pstevens1
file CSBexe951.zip.

When an illegal floor decoration is specified it
will show *NO* decoration.

The same problem is likely to occur for wall decorations.
I'll fix them as they arise. I also want to add a check
in CSBuild to warn about these things.

There's is a new binary for linux available. It uses plain GTK instead of Gnome, which have less dependencies. It should make some people happy. The source code has not been updated, though.

The version 9.5 archive on this site has been re-released and includes an upadted Linux binary to fix the handling of command line.
No change for the Windows version.
