Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup iOS Webtiles wrapper

Summary

This project aims to make DCSS webtiles a joy to play on any iOS device without an external keyboard. Works best in iPad devices.

The webtiles UI has a few problems:

No way to bring up a system keyboard forcing the use of an external keyboard
Hard to play without access to normal keyboard keys like: arrow keys, return, escape, etc.
Some automatic web browser behaviors (e.g. auto magnification of text boxes) make things clunky

How to play

Launch the app
Login to your webtiles account
Use the built in bar at the bottom to send key commands to the game
Long press any command to repeatedly send it to the game
Swipe up on the bar to access a secondary set of commands

Built in commands

Shortcuts for auto-explore, auto-combat, rest
Arrow keys (nw, ne, se, sw directions are part of the secondary commands)
Escape key
Bring up and enter commands using any iOS Keyboard
Find an item

Brogue and Angband support?
Such a great idea. These WebTiles games are almost tablet-friendly, and just need a way to enter commands and manage the keyboard focus.

Besides DCSS there are other WebTiles sites like https://angband.live/ and http://brogue.lumenstone.org. (At least, I assume they are WebTiles.) When I edited ServerSelectionViewController to add these servers there were a couple problems.

The toolbar buttons didn't send any commands.

The web view didn't resize quite right and so the toolbar overlapped the game.

In fact if a general solution can be found to integrating the toolbar and keyboard commands into any web page then it would be great to offer a text field that navigates the web view to any old URL. Or integrate with more Safari APIs and offer the user's bookmarks and such? Not sure if that's a thing.
