definition from CPPFLAGS to CFLAGS if it happens to be needed for
Solaris, because g++ errors with that definition (report by
Jean-Pierre Flori, Sage #15268).
+ correct logic in infocmp's -i option which was intended to ignore
strings which correspond to function-keys as candidates for piecing
together initialization- or reset-strings. The problem dates to
1.9.7a, but was overlooked until changes in -Wlogical-op warnings for
gcc 4.8 (report by David Binderman).
+ updated CF_GCC_WARNINGS to documented options for gcc 4.9.0, adding
checks for -Wextra, -Wignored-qualifiers and -Wlogical-op

+ remove setupterm call from test/demo_termcap.c
+ build-fix if --disable-ext-funcs configure option is used.

+ add configure option --with-cxx-shared to permit building
libncurses++ as a shared library when using g++, e.g., the same
limitations as libtool but better integrated with the usual build
configuration (Redhat 911540).

is obsolete.

of raw input in MinGW port.
+ modify test/testcurs.c to work with mouse for ncurses as it does for
pdcurses.
+ modify test/knight.c to work with mouse for pdcurses as it does for
ncurses.
+ modify internal recursion in wgetch() which handles cooked mode to
check if the call to wgetnstr() returned an error. This can happen
when both nocbreak() and nodelay() are set, for instance (report by
Nils Christopher Brause) (cf: 960418).
+ fixes for issues found by Coverity:
+ add a check for valid position in ClearToEOS()
+ fix in lib_twait.c when --enable-wgetch-events is used, pointer
use after free.

of curses-related libraries, to help with linking with pdcurses in
mingw environment.

no corresponding compiled-in value for that. Fill in "no default
value" for that part of the manpage substitution.
+ correct initialization in knight.c which let it occasionally make
an incorrect move (cf: 20001028).
+ improve documentation of the terminfo/termcap search path.

+ drop ncurses/tty/tty_display.h, ncurses/tty/tty_input.h, since they
are unused in the current driver model.
+ modify mvcur to use stdout except when called within the ncurses
library.
+ modify vidattr and vid_attr to use stdout as documented in manpage.
+ amend changes made to buffering in 20120825 so that the low-level
putp() call uses stdout rather than ncurses' internal buffering.
The putp_sp() call does the same, for consistency (Redhat #892674).
+ add "-s" option to test/view.c to allow it to start in single-step
mode, reducing size of trace files when it is used for debugging
MinGW changes.
+ revert part of 20121222 change to tinfo_driver.c
+ add experimental logic in win_driver.c to improve optimization of
screen updates. This does not yet work with double-width characters,
so it is ifdef'd out for the moment (prompted by report by Erwin
Waterlander regarding screen flicker).
+ fix coverity warnings regarding copying into fixed-size buffers.
+ add throw-declarations in the c++ binding per Coverity warning.
+ minor changes to new-items for consistent reference to bug-report
numbers.

available in all Mac OS X configurations (report by Andras Salamon,
cf: 20011208).
+ improve 20021221 workaround for broken acs, handling a case where
that ACS_xxx character is not in the acsc string but there is a known
wide-character which can be used.
+ fix several warnings from clang 3.1 --analyze, includes correcting
a null-pointer check in _nc_mvcur_resume.
+ correct display of double-width characters with MinGW port (report
by Erwin Waterlander).

+ remove dead code in progs/tset.c, test/linedata.h
+ add null-pointer checks in lib_tracemse.c, panel.priv.h, and some
test-programs.
+ modify test/knight.c to show the number of choices possible for
each position in automove option, e.g., to allow user to follow
Warnsdorff's rule to solve the puzzle.
+ modify test/hanoi.c to show the minimum number of moves possible for
the given number of tiles (prompted by patch by Lucas Gioia).

ship.
+ check return value from remove/unlink in tic.
+ check return value from sscanf in test/ncurses.c

+ modify test/view.c to load UTF-8 when built with MinGW by using
regular win32 API because the MinGW functions mblen() and mbtowc()
do not work.
