Two new commands, menuitemeditkeyinput and menuitemspectkeyinput, both
work the same as menuitemkeyinput - only for edit and spect binds.
The new edit keys menu should also work fine as edit key help :)
menuitem[|edit|spect]keyinput text bindcmd
Menuitem, that displays "text" and all keys, that bind "bindcmd" - in
game-, edit- or spect mode.

During startup, it is checked, if the game account needs to be unlocked
by password. If so, the password is asked and applied.
If no game account exists yet, the creation of a new account is offered.
new command "mypubkey": returns public key of game account, or empty
string, if no account exists or it is unusable (due to missing password,
for example)

Calculate some key values to determine map geometry viability.
mapareacheck <what>
Returns different sets of statistics, depending on the keyword "what":
vdelta
Returns table of numbers of cubes within a certain range of vdelta
differences (steepness)". First entry is "0..2 cubes steep", next is
"2..4" and so on.
steepest
Returns the coordinates of the steepest heightfield cube.
total
Returns the number of non-solid cubes on the map.
pprest
Returns the number of cubes _not_ visible from one of the probe
positions.
pp (default)
Returns a table of all (currently 64) probe points of the map. Each
probe point is listed with:
- x-coordinate
- y-coordinate
- floor height
- area visible
- volume of visible area
- average height in visible area

...and some options for sortmapmodelslots and sorttextureslots
All three commands now accept three modifier keywords as arguments:
nosort do not sort the list alphabetically
nomerge do not merge any slots
mergeused merge used and unused (identical) slots freely
By default, the list is sorted and only unused identical slots are merged.
The keywords can be combined in any order. "nomerge" takes priority over
"mergeused".
Examples:
sortmapmodelslots
Sort the mapmodel slot list alphabetically and merge unused identical
slots. Merging an unused slot is pretty much the same as deleting it,
so this command sorts the list and removes unneeded double entries.
sortmapmodelslots nosort
Merges (deletes) unused double entries in the mapmodel slot list.
sorttextureslots nosort mergeused
Merges double entries in the texture slot list. If two identical
entries are used in the map, all uses are mapped to the new combined
slot. This leaves no visual changes on the map. Should be avoided, if
texture slots have been renamed manually - and the the renaming isn't
finished yet.
sortmapsoundslots mergeused
Sorts the mapsound slot list and merges all double entries.
DOCREF sortmapmodelslots sorttextureslots sortmapsoundslots
(for now) by default bound to the '#'-key (and backslash)
Press and hold the '#'-key and scroll the wheel to scroll console.
Just pressing and releasing '#' resets the console position.
Without the console open, releasing '#' always resets the console position.
addentity <type>
Adds an entity of the specified type at the current camera position
and returns the index number of the new entity, so that the other
attributes can be set by editentity.
DOCREF addentity
Stock strftime doesn't use capitalized "P", so for example on Windows
the wall clock didn't appear for 12h format. PM and AM are converted
to lowercase.
Zipped mod package files should be placed in "mods/" and need to contain
directory trees starting with "packages/" (or "config/"). The files from
a zip mod replace files, that exist in the original game install or add
new files.
The zip file should contain three special files:
desc.txt
Contains one line with a descriptive title for the package and ten
more optional lines with a detailed description.
preview.jpg
Preview picture for the mod. Must not exceed 128 kbytes. Aim for
512x512 pixel.
revision_n
Empty file. The "n" in the filename should be a valid integer number
instead, specifying the zip revision. Example "revision_123".
The settings menu shows the active mods in order of their priority - which
determines, which file to use, if several mod packages try to add or
substitute the same file. Zip files higher up in the list win.
addzipmod zipname
Add the zip package file "mods/zipname.zip" to the virtual file system.
Only files below the path "packages/" are added (and also files below
"config/", if zipname starts with "###"). If the size of the zip file
is below zipcachemaxsize, the whole zip file is cached in memory.
(Un-cached zip files are kept open at all time, so caching keeps the
number of simultaneously opened files lower.)
zipmodremove zipname
Removes one zip file from the virtual file system.
zipmodclear
Removes all zip files from the virtual file system.
zipmodlist [what]
Lists zip files in "mods/". By default, or if "what" is "all", all zips
are listed. If "what" is "active", only those zips, that are already in
use, are listed. If "what" is "inactive", only the unused zip files are
listed.
zipmodgetdesc zipfile
Reads and returns the first 11 lines from the file "desc.txt" in the
named zip file. The first line is supposed to contain a descriptive
title for the zip (for use in menus) and the next 10 lines should
contain a more detailed description (also for use in menus).
The command also unpacks "preview.jpg" from the zip and mounts it as a
temporary file under the name "packages/modpreviews/zipname.jpg".
zipmodgetfiles zipfile
Returns the list of files contained in a zip file.
zipmodgetrevision zipfile
Returns the revision number of the zip file. The number is supposed to
be part of a filename: "revision_n". If no such file is found in the zip
file, the return value is zero. The content of the revision file is not
relevant and a file size of zero is recommended.

1. Counting backward for gametimedisplay = 1 and forward for 2. The setting
added to HUD menu.
2. Changed name from clockdisplay to gimetimedisplay, in order to
distinguish clocks with system time and game time.
3. Added to wall clock options with UTC/GMT time and 12h format.
DOCREF clockcount clockdisplay gametimedisplay
LAN servers should be always visible, when user opens serverbrowser with
LAN servers only. And don't allow to switch from there to alternate views,
because for searchlan = 2 it doesn't make sense.
It's solution for missing hit/shot/etc. sounds:
1. decrease priority of ambient sounds to low, in order to hear more
non-ambient sounds with priority greater than low;
2. increase amount of sound channels to hear more sounds. Newer sound
cards on PC should be able to use more channels than only 32;
3. improve preset sound settings.
Remark: after these changes for default value of mapsoundrefresh (10)
break in playing ambient sounds, caused by playing sounds with greater
priority, isn't practically audible. The break is audible for greater
value, for example for mapsoundrefresh=1000.
Remarks:
1. Changed order in keycmds lets to keep alphabetical order in saved.cfg .
2. Earlier long information in docs about arguments of command could be
invisible for low aspect ratio (example: "weapon" command), now it's fixed.
getvarrange <what> <varname>
