MUD Snippet
ROM Changes Command - Rahl
Rahl’s historical changes command reads a separate change-log text file without rebooting and provides paged output using Erwin’s dynamic-buffer support.
About this resource
Original new_changes.c source for displaying a separate changes text file without restarting the game. It uses a configured CHANGES_FILE path, fread_string, and paged output through dynamic buffers. License and attribution Retain Rahl’s name and notify the author by email as required by the source notice. Underlying code and dependency licenses remain applicable. Compatibility warning The input file must end with the expected tilde terminator. Review missing or malformed input handling, paths, and buffer integration. This is a historical code snippet, not a ready-to-run program. Historical software warning Mudhaven has not compiled, boot-tested, or security-audited this material. Modern compiler and operating-system compatibility is unverified. Read the included notices before use; historical contact addresses may no longer work.
Compatibility
ROM/Merc-derived C; Erwin dynamic buffers and manual command/path integration required.
