Breaking sanctuary turns 100% sanctuaries into capitals, all others
into highways. Before Empire 3, sanctuaries always became capitals.
Give deities more control over initial state of countries than
choosing between 100% capital and <100% highway sectors: turn
sanctuaries into their new designation on break. Except make a
capital when the new designation is sanctuary (which it normally is).

"info setsector" claims you "can change anything that appears in dump
or peek (I think)", which has always been wrong.
edit is much more complete. However, edit used to be more limited in
that it could change only one sector. For mass-changes, you had to
use setsector and setresource. Since that limitation is gone, there's
no real use left for setsector and setresource.

Accept general <SECTS|SHIPS|PLANES|LANDS|NATS> argument instead of
just <SECT|SHIP|PLANE|LAND|NAT>.
edit with <KEY> <VALUE>... arguments applies the arguments to all
selected objects. Without such arguments, edit lets you edit the
selected objects interactively one after the other.

Combine the two loops looking for \*QNAME\*U and "info NAME" into one.
Recognize "info NAME" only with the closing '"' to be present.
No change with current info sources.
"Unusually long" topics are marked with a "!" in subject indexes.
This should use the line count of the formatted page, but that's too
much trouble, so commit 4c0b4c0 (v4.3.27) approximated it by "source
file has more than 9999 bytes". Change that to "source file has more
than 300 lines".
Since subjects were added in Empire 2, we've always picked them up
from .SA requests. If you mistype a subject there, you get a "is a
NEW subject" warning, and incorrect subject pages. When building a
pristine tree, you get bogus "is a NEW subject" warnings for all
subjects. If you somehow delete the generated subjects.mk, but not
the generated subject files, the build breaks.
Declare subjects in Make variable subjects. Drop generated makefile
subject.mk.
Treat unknown topics in .SA arguments as errors. This replaces the
"$subj is a NEW subject" warning.
Treat subjects without member pages as errors. This replaces the "The
subject $subj has been removed" warning.
Safer and simpler.
We used to do all the info indexing work in info.pl: find subjects,
create subjects.mk (to tell make the list of subjects), the subject
pages, and TOP.t. Worked, but touching an info page triggered a full
rebuild of all subject pages and TOP.t.
Commit 2f14064 (v4.3.0) tried to avoid that by splitting info.pl into
findsubj.pl, mksubj.pl, mktop.pl. findsubj.pl puts not just the
subjects into subjects.mk, but also make rules for the subject pages,
to guide their remaking. mksubj.pl creates a single subject page.
mktop.pl creates TOP.t.
Unfortunately, this doesn't work so well. Since subjects.mk doesn't
exist in a virgin tree, we use -include. Unwanted consequence:
findsubj.pl failure doesn't stop make. Moreover, the complex make
machinery breaks down when info sources get removed or subjects get
dropped.
Go back to the old method, except keep mktop.pl separate, as that part
works just fine, and use simpler make rules. mksubj.pl now creates
subjects.mk and all subject pages, like info.pl did.
This effectively reverts most of commit 2f14064. I'll address the
excessive rebuilding of subject pages in a different way shortly.
Mark obsolete pages with '+' in subject pages. Drop the separate
"Obsolete" subject page: move "info Innards" to subject "Server", and
"info update" to "Updates" (where it came from in commit a5764534,
v4.3.10).
Change chance in percent lnd_retreat - lnd_effic - 1 to lnd_retreat -
lnd_effic. It's been that way since Empire 2, but I can't bring
myself to document the silly -1.
"info morale" wasn't updated when the retreat chance was changed in
Empire 2. Fix that.
Planes flying one-way with crew or cargo spread plague from their old
base to their new base. Planes dropping cargo spread plague from
their base to the drop's target sector.
Don't say selected sectors "show up in reverse video", that depends on
the client. Just say "will be highlighted", like we do for the other
commands that highlight, e.g. info survey.
Argument "active" is obscure. It creates a country in STAT_ACTIVE
that doesn't have a capital, and has its origin at the true origin.
If you really want such a country, create it in STAT_NEW normally,
then use edit to go to STAT_ACTIVE.
