A while back Magnate mentioned the "Blackstone" port of the NPP
autosquelch to v 3.0.5.

Where can I get a copy? I looked at oook, thangorodrim, the ftp site,
and saw nothing.

Nope.

I looked at ftp.sunet.de, which is where the ftp links at thangorodrim
go. Is there another site somewhere?

magnate did not mention exactly where he uploaded the files too.

Yes, thanks. I followed the links for source code to a different ftp
site entirely. Doh!

Hmm. I'm pretty sure I uploaded it, quite a while ago. I'm at work at
the moment but will check when I get home. It would have been called
angband-305-squelch.patch or similar.

Was the squelch.zip in Glenn's link a renamed version of the 305 patch,
or an older one? If it was older and you've brought it up to date for
306, let us know. Otherwise I'll get a move on and sort that out.

Cheers,

Thanks magnate. I got it, and your version was there. As Glen pointed
out, I was looking at the wrong ftp site. I'm not sure if I prefer
that to what NPP does. When I need to unsquelch poisonous mushrooms, I
can't bring them back into view the way I can with npp.

IIRC you can. You go to the squelch menu, uncheck the item you want,
and when you go back and re-draw the screen the purple dots are now
mushrooms of poison again (or whatever you have unsquelched). This is
of course providing you haven't walked over them with
squelch-on-walking set, in which case they will have been destroyed
(but I thought NPP did this too).

Apols if this is wrong, it's a long while since I played V, but this is
how I remember it.

Thanks. Anyway, I already dove into the NPP code. Only ~137 lines to
fix. It should be easy.

If it's not on the ftp anymore then it's been removed, since that's
where I always saw it. If you chuck "blackstone squelch uploaded" into
Google Groups, you can see a few results where people have sent it off
to the ftp.

HTH.

A cursory look in the patch directory on the thang ftp site reveals
this:

ftp://ftp.thangorodrim.net/pub/angband/Patch/squelch.txt

by none other than Mr. Blackstone. I assume squelch.zip contains the
mentioned files.

HTH (this time).
