Summary:

0002929: Commandline help not printed for Windows Tiles |
Description:
|
I was trying to find out how to get Zot Defence to run, but "crawl -help", "crawl -?" and similar attempts simply put me back on the command line without any feedback whatsoever.
According to main.cc, this should output some kind of help and I have hazy memories of it working at some point, but I might be confusing this with the console version, which I just checked and where it *does* work. |

This seems to work fine now in the Linux tiles build; please re-open if there are still problems in Windows. |

Note the platform: Windows.
On Windows, any executable can be marked as "console" or "GUI". The former will always open a console window (unless already ran from one), the latter is not attached to a console even if you start it from one.
The help would have to be shown some other way. There's MessageBoxW(), but it doesn't allow cut&paste. |

I added a temporary hack that lets _something_ display, although it looks like a bunch of text thrown together without any alignment at all. |
