Adding (undocumented?) non-numpad key input to position prompts
Add letter actions to positional prompts
Hi.
Currently, positional prompts support arrow keys and number pad. Would it be too much to ask for adding the possibility for letters to work in them as well? I'm mainly thinking of hjklyubn, because this enables full vi-keys support for users who configure a keymap suited for it (it's not like they do anything in the prompts right now anyway).
To clarify: with positional prompts, I mean the ones asking for a position on the map, such as look.
Googling around I found a few threads (on Reddit and steamcommunity) asking for this, so I'm definitely not alone.
You could also add WASD for people who want that, allthough I'm not sure how well such a keymap could be designed (after all, z is, or at least used to be, abort).
Currently I'm playing r69, because the ADOM rebirth thing seems to have shut down, and it's the last revision I happened to have handy where I can still set up a full vi-keys configuration, something the new keymap handler made impossible (I think there is a slightly newer revision possible, but r78, the next revision in hand I have a local copy of, is definitely after the keymap handler rewrite. Unfortunately, I don't think there is a version with the old handler + the new Dwarf stuff... This is with the terminal version, which I prefer over the Steam one).
