02c4e383be ncurses 6.1 - patch 20180407
+ clarify in manual pages that vwprintw and vwscanw are obsolete,
  not part of X/Open Curses since 2007.
+ use "const" in some prototypes rather than NCURSES_CONST where X/Open
  Curses was updated to do this, e.g., wscanw, newterm, the terminfo
  interface.  Also use "const" for consistency in the termcap
  interface, which was withdrawn by X/Open Curses in Issue 5 (2007).
  As of Issue 7, X/Open Curses still lacks "const" for certain return
  values, e.g., keyname().

bca50d0d85 ncurses 6.0 - patch 20180106
+ fixes for writing extended color pairs in putwin.
+ modify test/savescreen.c to add test patterns that exercise 88-,
  256-, etc., colors.
+ modify configure option --with-build-cc, adding clang, c89 and c99
  as possible default values.
+ modify ncurses-examples configure script to use pkg-config for the
  extra form/menu/panel libraries, to be more consistent with the
  handling of the curses/ncurses library.
+ modify test-packages for mingw to supply "pc" files.
+ modify gen-pkgconfig.in to list -lpthread as a private library when
  configured to access it via weak symbols.
+ simplify gen-pkgconfig.in, adding -ltinfo without the special linker
  checks because some versions of the linker simply hard-code the
  behavior.
+ update URLs for ncurses website to use https.
+ modify CF_CURSES_LIBS to fill in $cf_nculib_root in case the
  ncurses-examples are built with a system ncurses that lacks the
  standard "curses" symbolic link, as done by SuSE.  The symbol is
  needed to make a followup check for the pthread library work, and
  would be set properly using the options "--with-screen", etc.
+ generate misc/*.pc with "all" rule, as done for "sources" rule
  (report by Jeffrey Walton).

  before initialized.
+ add "-a" aspect-ratio option to picsmap.
+ add configure check for default path of rgb.txt, used in picsmap.
+ modify _nc_write_entry() to truncate too-long filename (report by
  Hosein Askari, Debian #882620).
+ build-fix for ncurses-examples with NetBSD curses:
  + it lacks the use_env() function.
  + it lacks libpanel; a recent change used the wrong ifdef symbol.
+ add a macro for is_linetouched() and adjust the function's return
  value to make it possible for most applications to check for an
  error-return (report by Midolikawa H).
+ additional manpage cleanup.

  those correspond to the non-sgr settings where they differ, but
  otherwise use ECMA-48 consistently:

7fa7badf32 ncurses 6.0 - patch 20171014
+ minor cleanup to test/view.c:
  + eliminate "-n" option by simply reading the whole file.
  + implement page up/down commands.
+ add check in tput for init/reset operands to ensure those use a
  terminal.
+ improve manual pages which discuss chtype, cchar_t types and the
  attribute values which can be stored in those types.
+ correct array-index when parsing "-T" command-line option in tabs
  program.
+ modify demo_new_pair.c to pass extended pairs to setcchar().
+ add test/dots_xcurses.c to illustrate a different approach used for
  extended colors which can be contrasted with dots_curses.c.
+ add a check in tic to note when a description uses non-mandatory
  delays without xon_xoff.  This is not an error, but some descriptions
  for a terminal emulator may use the combination incorrectly.

  database-only features in cron if a -T option gives a suitable
  terminal name (report by Lauri Tirkkonen).
+ correct an ifdef in test/ncurses.c for systems with soft-keys but
  not slk_color().
+ regenerate man-html documentation.

  on demand up to the existing limit.
+ add "RGB" extension capability for direct-color support, use this to
  improve color_content().
+ improve picsmap test-program:
  + if no palette file is needed, attempt to load one based on $TERM,
    checking first in the current directory, then by adding ".dat"
    suffix, and finally in the data-directory, e.g.,

a8e3f06ac3 ncurses 6.0 - patch 20170422
+ build-fix for termcap-configuration (report by Chi-Hsuan Yen).
+ improve terminfo manual page discussion of control- and graphics-
  characters.
+ remove tic warning about "^?" in string capabilities, which was
  marked as an extension (cf: 20000610, 20110820); however all Unix
  implementations support this and X/Open Curses does not address it.
  On the other hand, termcap never did support this feature.
+ correct missing comma-separator between string capabilities in
  icl6402 and m2-nam -TD
+ restore rmir/smir in ansi+idc to better match original ansiterm+idc,
  add alias ansiterm (report by Robert King).
+ amend an old check for ambiguous use of "ma" in terminfo versus
  a termcap use, if the capability is cancelled to treat it as number.
+ correct a case in _nc_captoinfo() which read "%%" and emitted "%".
+ modify sscanf calls in _nc_infotocap() for patterns "%{number}%+%c"
  and "%'char'%+%c" to check that the final character is really 'c',
  avoiding a case in icl6404 which cannot be converted to termcap.
+ in _nc_infotocap(), add a check to ensure that terminfo "^?" is not
  written to termcap, because the BSDs did not implement that.
+ in _nc_tic_expand() and _nc_infotocap(), improve string-length check
  when deciding whether to use "^X" or "\xxx" format for control
  characters, to make the output of tic/infocmp more predictable.
+ limit termcap "%d" width to 2 digits on input, and use "%2" in
  preference to "%02" on output.
+ correct terminfo/termcap conversion of "%02" and "%03" into "%2" and
  "%3"; the result repeated the last character.
+ add man/scr_dump.5 to document screen-dump format.

+ modify wattr_set() and wattr_get() to return ERR if win-parameter is
  null, as documented.
+ improve cast used for null-pointer checks in header macros, to
  reduce compiler warnings.
+ modify several functions, using the reserved "opts" parameter to pass
  color- and pair-values larger than 16-bits:
  + getcchar(), setcchar(), slk_attr_set(), vid_puts(), wattr_get(),
    wattr_set(), wchgat(), wcolor_set().
  + Other functions call these with the corresponding altered behavior,
    including chgat(), mvchgat(), mvwchgat(), slk_color_on(),
    slk_color_off(), vid_attr().
+ add new functions for manipulating color- and pair-values larger
  than 16-bits.  These are extended_color_content(),
  extended_pair_content(), extended_slk_color(), init_extended_color(),
  init_extended_pair(), and the corresponding sp-funcs.

+ correct read of terminfo entry in which all strings are absent or
  explicitly cancelled.  Before this fix, the result was that all were
  treated as only absent.
+ modify infocmp to suppress mixture of absent/cancelled capabilities
  that would only show as "NULL, NULL", unless the -q option is used,

58552e8c76 ncurses 6.0 - patch 20170107
+ amend changes for tput to reset tty modes to "sane" if the program
  is run as "reset", like tset.  Likewise, ensure that tset sends
  either reset- or init-strings.
+ improve manual page descriptions of tput init/reset and tset/reset,
  to make it easier to see how they are similar and different.
+ move a static result from key_name() to _nc_globals
+ modify _nc_get_screensize to allow for use_env() and use_tioctl()
  state to be per-screen when sp-funcs are configured, better matching
  the behavior when using the term-driver configuration.
+ improve cross-references in manual pages for often used functions
+ move SCREEN field for use_tioctl() data before the ncursesw fields,
  and limit that to the sp-funcs configuration to improve termlib
  compatibility (cf:  20120714).
+ correct order of initialization for traces in use_env() and
  use_tioctl() versus first trace calls.

+ modify programs clear, tput and tset to pass the actual tty file
  descriptor to setupterm rather than the standard output, making
  padding work.

f06e14af5e ncurses 6.0 - patch 20161022
+ modify tset -w (and tput reset) to update the program's copy of the
  screensize if it was already set in the system, to improve tabstop
  setting which relies upon knowing the actual screensize.
+ add functionality of tset -w to tput, like the "-c" feature this is
  not optional in tput.
+ add "clear" as a possible link/alias to tput.
+ improve tput's check for being called as "init" or "reset" to allow
  for transformed names.
+ split-out the "clear" function from progs/clear.c, share with
  tput to get the same behavior, e.g., the E3 extension.

c3b21f65a2 ncurses 6.0 - patch 20161015
+ amend internal use of tputs to consistently use the number of lines
  affected, e.g., for insert/delete character operations.  While
  merging terminfo source early in 1995, several descriptions used the
  "*" proportional delay for these operations, prompting a change in
  doupdate.
+ regenerate llib-* files.
+ regenerate HTML manpages.
+ fix several formatting issues with manual pages.

29a36e53e1 ncurses 6.0 - patch 20160820
+ update tput manual page to reflect changes to manipulate terminal
  modes by sharing functions with tset.
+ add the terminal-mode parts of "reset" (aka tset) to the "tput reset"
  command, making the two almost the same except for window-size.
+ adapt logic used in dialog "--keep-tite" option for test/filter.c as
  "-a" option.  When set, test/filter attempts to suppress the
  alternate screen.

603f0cb25b ncurses 6.0 - patch 20160611
+ revise fix for Debian #805618 (report by Vlado Potisk, cf: 20151128).
+ modify test/ncurses.c a/A screens to make exiting on an escape
  character depend on the start of keypad and timeout modes, to allow
  better testing of function-keys.
+ modify rs1 for xterm-16color, xterm-88color and xterm-256color to
  reset palette using "oc" string as in linux -TD
+ use ANSI reply for u8 in xterm-new, to reflect vt220-style responses
  that could be returned -TD

56f1e8cd80 ncurses 6.0 - patch 20160521
+ improved manual page description of tset/reset versus window-size.
+ fixes to work with a slightly broken compiler configuration which
  cannot compile "Hello World!" without adding compiler options
  (report by Ola x Nilsson):
  + pass appropriate compiler options to the CF_PROG_CC_C_O macro.
  + when separating compiler and options in CF_CC_ENV_FLAGS, ensure
    that all options are split-off into CFLAGS or CPPFLAGS
  + restore some -I options removed in 20140726 because they appeared
    to be redundant.  In fact, they are needed for a compiler that
    cannot combine -c and -o options.

2a32bee362 ncurses 6.0 - patch 20160326
+ regenerate HTML manpages.
+ improve test/demo_menus.c, allowing mouse-click on the menu-headers
  to switch the active menu.  This requires a new extension option
  O_MOUSE_MENU to tell the menu driver to put mouse events which do not
  apply to the active menu back into the queue so that the application
  can handle the event.

+ update form_cursor.3x, form_post.3x, menu_attributes.3x to list
  function names in NAME section (patch by Jason McIntyre).
+ minor fixes to manpage NAME/SYNOPSIS sections to consistently use
  rule that either all functions which are prototyped in SYNOPSIS are
  listed in the NAME section, or the manual-page name is the sole item
  listed in the NAME section.  The latter is used to reduce clutter,
  e.g., for the top-level library manual pages as well as for certain
  feature-pages such as SP-funcs and threading (prompted by patches by
  Jason McIntyre).
+ add option to preserve leading whitespace in form fields (patch by
  Leon Winter).
