(cf: 20081227)
+ regenerated html documentation.
+ modify test/configure to support pkg-config for checking X libraries
used by PDCurses.
+ add/use configure macro CF_ADD_LIB to force consistency of
assignments to $LIBS, etc.
+ fix configure script for combining --with-pthread
and --enable-weak-symbols options.
+ correct cross-compiling configure check for CF_MKSTEMP macro, by
adding a check cache variable set by AC_CHECK_FUNC (report by
Pierre Labastie).
+ simplify include-dependencies of make_hash and make_keys, to reduce
the need for setting BUILD_CPPFLAGS in cross-compiling when the
build- and target-machines differ.
+ repair broken-linker configuration by restoring a definition of SP
variable to curses.priv.h, and adjusting for cases where sp-funcs
are used.
+ improve configure macro CF_AR_FLAGS, allowing ARFLAGS environment
variable to override (prompted by report by Pablo Cazallas).
+ add configure option --enable-pthreads-eintr to control whether the
new EINTR feature is enabled.
+ modify logic in pthread configuration to allow EINTR to interrupt
a read operation in wgetch() (Novell #540571, patch by Werner Fink).
+ drop mkdirs.sh, use "mkdir -p".
+ add configure option --disable-libtool-version, to use the
"-version-number" feature which was added in libtool 1.5 (report by
Peter Haering). The default value for the option uses the newer
feature, which makes libraries generated using libtool compatible
with the standard builds of ncurses.
+ updated test/configure to match configure script macros.
+ fixes for configure script from lynx changes:
+ improve CF_FIND_LINKAGE logic for the case where a function is
found in predefined libraries.
+ revert part of change to CF_HEADER (cf: 20100424)
+ correct limit-check in wredrawln, accounting for begy/begx values
(patch by David Benjamin).
+ fix most compiler warnings from clang.
+ amend build-fix for OpenSolaris, to ensure that a system header is
included in curses.h before testing feature symbols, since they
may be defined by that route.
+ fix some strict compiler warnings in ncurses library.
+ modify configure macro CF_HEADER_PATH to not look for variations in
the predefined include directories.
+ improve configure macros CF_GCC_VERSION and CF_GCC_WARNINGS to work
with gcc 4.x's c89 alias, which gives warning messages for cases
where older versions would produce an error.
+ modify _nc_capcmp() to work with cancelled strings.
+ correct translation of "^" in _nc_infotocap(), used to transform
terminfo to termcap strings
+ add configure --disable-rpath-hack, to allow disabling the feature
which adds rpath options for libraries in unusual places.
+ improve CF_RPATH_HACK_2 by checking if the rpath option for a given
directory was already added.
+ improve CF_RPATH_HACK_2 by using ldd to provide a standard list of
directories (which will be ignored).
+ improve win_driver.c handling of mouse:
+ discard motion events
+ avoid calling _nc_timed_wait when there is a mouse event
+ handle 4th and "rightmost" buttons.
+ quote substitutions in CF_RPATH_HACK_2 configure macro, needed for
cases where there are embedded blanks in the rpath option.

+ improve handling of color-pairs embedded in attributes for the
extended-colors configuration.

+ improve configure CF_FIND_LINKAGE, adding add check between system
(default) and explicit paths, where we can find the entrypoint in the
given library.
+ add check if Gpm_Open() returns a -2, e.g., for "xterm". This is
normally suppressed but can be overridden using $NCURSES_GPM_TERMS.
Ensure that Gpm_Close() is called in this case.
+ modify install-rule for manpages so that *-config manpages will
install when building with --srcdir (report by Sven Joachim).
+ modify CF_DISABLE_LEAKS configure macro so that the --enable-leaks
option is not the same as --disable-leaks (GenToo #305889).
+ modify #define's for build-compiler to suppress cchar_t symbol from
compile of make_hash and make_keys, improving cross-compilation of
ncursesw (report by Bernhard Rosenkraenzer).
+ modify CF_MAN_PAGES configure macro to replace all occurrences of
TPUT in tput.1's manpage (Debian #573597, report/analysis by Anders
Kaseorg).
+ generate manpages for the *-config scripts, adapted from help2man
(suggested by Sven Joachim).
+ use va_copy() in _nc_printf_string() to avoid conflicting use of
va_list value in _nc_printf_length() (report by Wim Lewis).
+ add Ada95/configure script, to use in tar-file created by
Ada95/make-tar.sh
+ fix typo in wresize.3x (patch by Tim van der Molen).
+ modify screen-bce.XXX entries to exclude ech, since screen's color
model does not clear with color for that feature -TD
+ add make-tar.sh scripts to Ada95 and test subdirectories to help with
making those separately distributable.
+ build-fix for static libraries without dlsym (Debian #556378).
+ fix a syntax error in man/form_field_opts.3x (patch by Ingo
Schwarze).
+ update mrxvt terminfo entry -TD

Miroslav Lichvar).
+ use vfork in test/ditto.c if available (request by Mike Frysinger).
+ miscellaneous cleanup of manpages.
+ fix typo in curs_bkgd.3x (patch by Tim van der Molen).

+ for term-driver configuration, ensure that the driver pointer is
initialized in setupterm so that terminfo/termcap programs work.
+ amend fix for Debian #542031 to ensure that wattrset() returns only
OK or ERR, rather than the attribute value (report by Miroslav
Lichvar).
+ reorder WINDOWLIST to put WINDOW data after SCREEN pointer, making
_nc_screen_of() compatible between normal/wide libraries again (patch
by Miroslav Lichvar)
+ review/fix include-dependencies in modules files (report by Miroslav
Lichvar).
+ modify win_driver.c to initialize acs_map for win32 console, so
that line-drawing works.
+ modify win_driver.c to initialize TERMINAL struct so that programs
such as test/lrtest.c and test/ncurses.c which test string
capabilities can run.
+ modify term-driver modules to eliminate forward-reference
declarations.
+ modify configure macro CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, etc., to use CF_ADD_CFLAGS
consistently to add new -D's while removing duplicates.

before older in the list.
+ add tiparm(), based on review of X/Open Curses Issue 7.
+ minor documentation cleanup.
+ update config.guess, config.sub from
http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/config
(caveat - its maintainer put 2010 copyright date on files dated 2009)
+ minor improvement to tic's checking of similar SGR's to allow for the
most common case of SGR 0.
+ modify getmouse() to act as its documentation implied, returning on
each call the preceding event until none are left. When no more
events remain, it will return ERR.
+ change order of lookup in progs/tput.c, looking for terminfo data
first. This fixes a confusion between termcap "sg" and terminfo
"sgr" or "sgr0", originally from 990123 changes, but exposed by
20091114 fixes for hashing. With this change, only "dl" and "ed" are
ambiguous (Mandriva #56272).
+ remove old check in mvderwin() which prevented moving a derived
window whose origin happened to coincide with its parent's origin
(report by Katarina Machalkova).
+ improve test/ncurses.c to put mouse droppings in the proper window.
+ update minix terminfo entry -TD
+ add bw (auto-left-margin) to nsterm* entries (Benjamin Sittler)
+ correct transfer of multicolumn characters in multirow
field_buffer(), which stopped at the end of the first row due to
filling of unused entries in a cchar_t array with nulls.
+ updated nsterm* entries (Benjamin Sittler, Emanuele Giaquinta)
+ modify _nc_viscbuf2() and _tracecchar_t2() to show wide-character
nulls.
+ use strdup() in set_menu_mark(), restore .marklen struct member on
failure.

ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/pub/4bsd/README.Impt.License.Change
(patch by Nicholas Marriott).
+ replace a malloc in tic.c with strdup, checking for failure (patch by
Nicholas Marriott).
+ update config.guess, config.sub from
http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/config
+ correct layout of working window used to extract data in
wide-character configured by set_field_buffer (patch by Rafael
Garrido Fernandez)
+ improve some limit-checks related to filename length in reading and
writing terminfo entries.
+ ensure that filename is always filled in when attempting to read
a terminfo entry, so that infocmp can report the filename (patch
by Nicholas Marriott).
+ modify mk-1st.awk to allow tinfo library to be built when term-driver
is enabled.
+ add error-check to configure script to ensure that sp-funcs is
enabled if term-driver is, since some internal interfaces rely upon
this.
+ fix case where progs/tput is used while sp-funcs is configure; this
requires save/restore of out-character function from _nc_prescreen
rather than the SCREEN structure (report by Charles Wilson).
+ fix typo in man/curs_trace.3x which caused incorrect symbolic links
+ improved configure macros CF_GCC_ATTRIBUTES, CF_PROG_LINT.
+ updated man/curs_trace.3x
+ limit hashing for termcap-names to 2-characters (Ubuntu #481740).
+ change a variable name in lib_newwin.c to make it clearer which
value is being freed on error (patch by Nicholas Marriott).
+ improve test/ncurses.c color-cycling test by reusing attribute-
and color-cycling logic from the video-attributes screen.
+ add ifdef'd with NCURSES_INTEROP_FUNCS experimental bindings in form
library which help make it compatible with interop applications
(patch by Juergen Pfeifer).
+ add configure option --enable-interop, for integrating changes
for generic/interop support to form-library by Juergen Pfeifer
+ modify use of $CC environment variable which is defined by X/Open
as a curses feature, to ignore it if it is not a single character
(prompted by discussion with Benjamin C W Sittler).
+ add START_TRACE in slk_init
+ fix a regression in _nc_ripoffline which made test/ncurses.c not show
soft-keys, broken in 20090927 merging.
+ change initialization of "hidden" flag for soft-keys from true to
false, broken in 20090704 merging (Ubuntu #464274).
+ update nsterm entries (patch by Benjamin C W Sittler, prompted by
discussion with Fabian Groffen in GenToo #206201).
+ add test/xterm-256color.dat
+ quiet some pedantic gcc warnings.
+ modify _nc_wgetch() to check for a -1 in the fifo, e.g., after a
SIGWINCH, and discard that value, to avoid confusing application
(patch by Eygene Ryabinkin, FreeBSD bin/136223).
+ supply a null-terminator to buffer in _nc_viswibuf().
+ fix a sign-extension bug in unget_wch() (report by Mike Gran).
+ minor fixes to error-returns in default function for tputs, as well
as in lib_screen.c
+ add WACS_xxx definitions to wide-character configuration for thick-
and double-lines (discussion with Slava Zanko).
+ remove unnecessary kcan assignment to ^C from putty (Sven Joachim)
+ add ccc and initc capabilities to xterm-16color -TD
> patch by Benjamin C W Sittler:
+ add linux-16color
+ correct initc capability of linux-c-nc end-of-range
+ similar change for dg+ccc and dgunix+ccc
+ move leak-checking for comp_captab.c into _nc_leaks_tinfo() since
that module since 20090711 is in libtinfo.
+ add configure option --enable-term-driver, to allow compiling with
terminal-driver. That is used in mingw port, and (being somewhat
more complicated) is an experimental alternative to the conventional
termlib internals. Currently, it requires the sp-funcs feature to
be enabled.
+ completed integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer in ncurses
library (some work remains for forms library).
+ document return code from define_key (report by Mike Gran).
+ make some symbolic links in the terminfo directory-tree shorter
(patch by Daniel Jacobowitz, forwarded by Sven Joachim).).
+ fix some groff warnings in terminfo.5, etc., from recent Debian
changes.
+ change ncv and op capabilities in sun-color terminfo entry to match
Sun's entry for this (report by Laszlo Peter).
+ improve interix smso terminfo capability by using reverse rather than
bold (report by Kristof Zelechovski).
+ add some test programs (and make these use the same special keys
by sharing linedata.h functions):
test/test_addstr.c
test/test_addwstr.c
test/test_addchstr.c
test/test_add_wchstr.c
+ correct internal _nc_insert_ch() to use _nc_insert_wch() when
inserting wide characters, since the wins_wch() function that it used
did not update the cursor position (report by Ciprian Craciun).
+ fix typo s/is_timeout/is_notimeout/ which made "man is_notimeout" not
work.
+ add null-pointer checks to other opaque-functions.
+ add is_pad() and is_subwin() functions for opaque access to WINDOW
(discussion with Mark Dickinson).
+ correct merge to lib_newterm.c, which broke when sp-funcs was
enabled.
+ build-fix for building outside source-tree (report by Sven Joachim).
+ fix Debian lintian warning for man/tabs.1 by making section number
agree with file-suffix (report by Sven Joachim).
+ continue integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer (incomplete).
+ correct use of terminfo capabilities for initializing soft-keys,
broken in 20090509 merging.
+ modify wgetch() to ensure it checks SIGWINCH when it gets an error
in non-blocking mode (patch by Clemens Ladisch).
+ use PATH_SEPARATOR symbol when substituting into run_tic.sh, to
help with builds on non-Unix platforms such as OS/2 EMX.
+ modify scripting for misc/run_tic.sh to test configure script's
$cross_compiling variable directly rather than comparing host/build
compiler names (prompted by comment in GenToo #249363).
+ fix configure script option --with-database, which was coded as an
enable-type switch.
+ build-fixes for --srcdir (report by Frederic L W Meunier).
+ improve discussion in INSTALL for use of system's tic/infocmp for
cross-compiling and building fallbacks.
+ modify test/demo_termcap.c to correspond better to options in
test/demo_terminfo.c
+ continue integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer (incomplete).
+ fix logic for 'V' in test/ncurses.c tests f/F.
+ fix a null-pointer check in _nc_format_slks() in lib_slk.c, from
20070704 changes.
+ modify _nc_find_type_entry() to use hashing.
+ make CCHARW_MAX value configurable, noting that changing this would
change the size of cchar_t, and would be ABI-incompatible.
+ modify test-programs, e.g,. test/view.c, to address subtle
differences between Tru64/Solaris and HPUX/AIX getcchar() return
values.
+ modify length returned by getcchar() to count the trailing null
which is documented in X/Open (cf: 20020427).
+ fixes for test programs to build/work on HPUX and AIX, etc.
