    Log Message:
    Don't require USE_DOSEMU for DOS-compatible drive mappings in xtrn.dat

    We no longer use/require the USE_DOSEMU definition anywhere else, so
    this was just a miss when the DOSEMU patch was perm-enabled.

    Log Message:
    Add space after numeric value on second line of DOORFILE.SR

    This appears to work around a bug in BRE, FE, and TAL where they don't recognize the "1" (ANSI supported) unless there is at least one other
    character on the line following the decimal digit, resulting in the
    unnecessary prompting of the user:
    This game is much more enjoyable with ANSI graphics enabled.
    Do you want ANSI Graphics? (Y/n)

    As reported by "ben" in IRC.

    Log Message:
    Clear any mouse hot-spots before executing external program from exec_xtrn()

    As Nelgin pointed out, mouse hot-spots were still active when running external programs (door games) - so clear any active hot-spots before running external programs.

    This could possibly be done in external() instead, but this sufficient for
    now. I wouldn't want a menu that EXEC's something (via @-code) to lose all its hot-spots as a result.

    Log Message:
    Add support for command-line specifiers in external program 'startup dir'

    The exception is: DOS programs on Linux (e.g. Linux DOSEMU), due to the
    funky drive letter mappng, this can't be supported for those external
    programs.

    As requested by Fluid via IRC, for Frotz support, to store user-unique
    data files in data/user/####.something (e.g. "%juser/%4.zork").
