Include nethack-recover [request] #37

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

I think it would be helpful if you included nethack-recover, and best would
be if it automatically runs on startup. Android is a single-user device, so
no need to worry about interrupting other peoples games. 

This will at least allow us to recover our games if nethack does crash
(we'll get sent back to the stairs on that level, but much better than
starting from scratch if we've got a good game going).

Yeah, I have been thinking of improving that stuff. A lot of the code from that 
tool is actually already compiled in, because it's needed to make the 
auto-saving work when the application gets shut down by the Android OS.

In version 1.2.4, there is a new recovery option, in addition to the 
auto-recover that already happened after the application gets properly shut 
down by the OS. Now, instead of getting prompted if you should destroy the old 
game, you get prompted if you want to recover (like what the MSDOS version 
does). Hopefully this will do what you wanted.
