account for xon -TD
+ correct sgr string for tmux, which used screen's "standout" code
rather than the standard code (patch by Roman Kagan)
+ correct sgr/sgr0 strings in a few other cases reported by tic, making
those correspond to the non-sgr settings where they differ, but
otherwise use ECMA-48 consistently:

+ modify allocation for SCREEN's color-pair table to start small, grow
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.,
/usr/share/ncurses-examples
+ add "-l" option for logging
+ add "-d" option for debugging
+ add "-s" option for stepping automatically through list of images,
with time delay.

icl6402 and m2-nam -TD
+ restore rmir/smir in ansi+idc to better match original ansiterm+idc,
add alias ansiterm (report by Robert King).

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.

+ fix minor memory-leaks in test-programs.
+ further improve ifdef in term_entry.h for internal definitions not
used by tack.
+ change TERMINAL structure in term.h to make it opaque. Some
applications misuse its members, e.g., directly modifying it
rather than using def_prog_mode().

terminal emulators -TD
+ correct a few spelling errors in terminfo.src comments -TD
+ add fbterm -TD

(patch by Leon Winter).
+ improve color-handling section in terminfo manual page (prompted by
patch by Mihail Konev).
+ modify programs clear, tput and tset to pass the actual tty file
descriptor to setupterm rather than the standard output, making
padding work.
+ add tput-colorcube demo script.
+ add -r and -s options to tput-initc demo, to match usage in xterm.
+ flush the standard output in _nc_flush for the case where SP is zero,
e.g., when called via putp. This fixes a scenario where "tput flash"
did not work after changes in 20130112.
+ add configure script option --disable-wattr-macros for use in cases
where one wants to use the same headers for ncurses5/ncurses6
development, by suppressing the wattr* macros which differ due to
the introduction of extended colors (prompted by comments in
Debian #230990, Redhat #1270534).
+ add test/tput-initc to demonstrate tput used to initialize palette
from a data file.
+ modify test/xterm*.dat to use the newer color4/color12 values.
+ modify tset -w (and tput reset) to update the program's copy of the

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.
+ improve CF_GNU_SOURCE configure macro to optionally define
_DEFAULT_SOURCE work around a nuisance in recent glibc releases.
+ move the terminfo-specific parts of tput's "reset" function into
the shared reset_cmd.c, making the two forms of reset use the same
strings.
+ split-out the terminal initialization functions from tset as
progs/reset_cmd.c, as part of changes to merge the reset-feature
with tput.

+ modify configure script to remove deprecated ABI 5 symbols when
building ABI 6.
+ add symbols _nc_Default_Field, _nc_Default_Form, _nc_has_mouse to
map-files, but marked as deprecated so that they can easily be
suppressed from ABI 6 builds (Debian #788610).
+ comment-out "screen.xterm" entry, and inherit screen.xterm-256color
from xterm-new (report by Richard Birkett) -TD

databases were found, as documented for setupterm.
+ add test_setupterm.c to demonstrate normal/error returns from the
setupterm and restartterm functions.

of ret_error, etc., from tinfo_driver.c, to account for the fact that
it should return a bool rather than int (report/analysis by Johannes
Schindelin).
+ add test-packages for cross-compiling ncurses-examples using the
MinGW test-packages. These are only the Debian packages; RPM later.
+ cleanup format of debian/copyright files

#783806)
+ add sample "magic" file, to document ext-putwin.
+ modify gen-pkgconfig.in to add explicit -ltinfo, etc., to the
generated ".pc" file when ld option "--as-needed" is used, or when
ncurses and tinfo are installed without using rpath (prompted by
discussion with Sylvain Bertrand).
+ modify test-package for ncurses6 to omit rpath feature when installed
in /usr.

+ make extra-suffix work for OSX configuration, e.g., for shared
libraries.
+ modify Ada95/configure script to work with pkg-config
+ move test-package for ncurses6 to /usr, since filename-conflicts have
been eliminated.

+ add configure options for applying the ".map" and ".sym" files to
the ncurses, form, menu and panel libraries.
+ add ".map" and ".sym" files to show exported symbols, e.g., for
symbol-versioning.

conflict with the static library (report by Ben Lentz).
+ document RPATH_LIST in INSTALLATION file, as part of workarounds for
upgrading an ncurses library using the "--with-shared" option.
+ modify test/ncurses.c c/C tests to cycle through subsets of the
total number of colors, to better illustrate 8/16/88/256-colors by
providing directly comparable screens.
+ add test/dots_curses.c, for comparison with the low-level examples.
+ separate masking for sgr in vidputs from sitm/ritm, which do not

+ correct ti924-8 which had confused padding versus octal escapes -TD
+ correct padding in sbi entry -TD
+ fix an old bug in the termcap emulation; "%i" was ignored in tparm()
because the parameters to be incremented were already on the internal
stack (report by Corinna Vinschen).
+ modify tic's "-c" option to take into account the "-C" option to
activate additional checks which compare the results from running
tparm() on the terminfo expressions versus the translated termcap
expressions.
+ modify tic to allow it to read from FIFOs (report by Matthieu Fronton,
cf: 20120324).
> patches by Nicolas Boulenguez:
+ explicit dereferences to suppress some style warnings.
+ when c_varargs_to_ada.c includes its header, use double quotes
instead of <>.
+ samples/ncurses2-util.adb: removed unused with clause. The warning
was removed by an obsolete pragma.
+ replaced Unreferenced pragmas with Warnings (Off). The latter,
available with older GNATs, needs no configure test. This also
replaces 3 untested Unreferenced pragmas.
+ simplified To_C usage in trace handling. Using two parameters allows
some basic formatting, and avoids a warning about security with some
compiler flags.
+ for generated Ada sources, replace many snippets with one pure
package.
+ removed C_Chtype and its conversions.
+ removed C_AttrType and its conversions.
+ removed conversions between int, Item_Option_Set, Menu_Option_Set.
+ removed int, Field_Option_Set, Item_Option_Set conversions.
+ removed C_TraceType, Attribute_Option_Set conversions.
+ replaced C.int with direct use of Eti_Error, now enumerated. As it
was used in a case statement, values were tested by the Ada compiler
to be consecutive anyway.
+ src/Makefile.in: remove duplicate stanza
+ only consider using a project for shared libraries.
+ style. Silent gnat-4.9 warning about misplaced "then".
+ generate shared library project to honor ADAFLAGS, LDFLAGS.

them more consistent with other packages.
+ fix a few compiler warnings in progs and test.
+ minor fix to package/debian-mingw/rules, do not strip dll's.
+ minor fixes to configure script for empty $prefix, e.g., when doing
cross-compiles to MinGW.
+ add script for building test-packages of binaries cross-compiled to
MinGW using NSIS.
+ minor fixes to the --disable-overwrite logic, to ensure that the
configured $(includedir) is not cancelled by the mingwxx-filesystem
rpm macros.
+ add --disable-db-install configure option, to simplify building
cross-compile support packages.
+ add mingw-ncurses.spec file, for testing cross-compiles.
+ minor changes to some configure macros to make them more reusable.
+ fixes for tabs program (prompted by report by Nick Andrik):
+ corrected logic in command-line parsing of -a and -c predefined
tab-lists options.
+ allow "-0" and "-8" options to be combined with others, e.g.,"-0d".
+ make warning messages more consistent with the other utilities by
not printing the full pathname of the program.

as showing how the menu item user-data can be used to pass a callback
function pointer.

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

into a user-data structure, keeping the original string for later
expansion to free-format input/out demo.
+ modified test/demo_forms.c to load data from file.
+ added note to clarify Terminal.app's non-emulation of the various
terminal types listed in the preferences dialog -TD
+ fix regression in error-reporting in lib_setup.c (Debian #711134,
cf: 20121117).
+ build-fix for a case where --enable-broken_linker and
--enable-reentrant options are combined (report by George R Goffe).
+ further fixes to mvcur to pass callback function (cf: 20130112),
needed to make test/dots_mvcur work.
+ reduce calls to SetConsoleActiveScreenBuffer in win_driver.c, to
help reduce flicker.
+ modify configure script to omit "+b" from linker options for very
old HP-UX systems (report by Dennis Grevenstein)
+ add HP-UX workaround for missing EILSEQ on old HP-UX systems (patch
by Dennis Grevenstein).
+ restore memmove/strdup support for antique systems (request by
Dennis Grevenstein).
+ change %l behavior in tparm to push the string length onto the stack
rather than saving the formatted length into the output buffer
(report by Roy Marples, cf: 980620).
+ correct prototype in manpage for vid_puts.
+ 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).
+ also replace MinGW's wctomb(), fixing a problem with setcchar().
+ 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.
+ realign these related pages:
curs_add_wchstr.3x
curs_addchstr.3x
curs_addstr.3x
curs_addwstr.3x
and fix a long-ago error in curs_addstr.3x which said that a -1
length parameter would only write as much as fit onto one line
(report by Reuben Thomas).
+ remove obsolete fallback _nc_memmove() for memmove()/bcopy().
+ remove obsolete fallback _nc_strdup() for strdup().
+ cancel any debug-rpm in package/ncurses.spec
+ reviewed vte-2012, reverted most of the change since it was incorrect
based on testing with tack -TD
+ un-cancel the initc in vte-256color, since this was implemented
starting with version 0.20 in 2009 -TD
+ add --enable-interop to sample package scripts (suggested by Juergen
Pfeifer).
+ update CF_PATH_SYNTAX macro, from mawk changes.
+ modify mk-0th.awk to allow for generating llib-ltic, etc., though
some work is needed on cproto to work with lib_gen.c to update
llib-lncurses.

+ corrected fix for building c++ binding with clang 3.0 (report/patch
by Richard Yao, Gentoo #417613, cf: 20110409)
+ correct configure check for working poll, fixing the case where stdin
is redirected, e.g., in rpm/dpkg builds (Debian #676461).
+ add rpm- and dpkg-scripts, to test those build-environments.
The resulting packages are used only for testing.
+ modify configure script to allow creating dll's for MinGW when
cross-compiling.
+ add --enable-string-hacks option to control whether strlcat and
strlcpy may be used. The same issue applies to OpenBSD's warnings
about snprintf, noting that this function is weakly standardized.
+ add configure checks for strlcat, strlcpy and snprintf, to help
reduce bogus warnings with OpenBSD builds.
+ build-fix for OpenBSD 4.9 to supply consistent intptr_t declaration
(cf:20111231)
+ update config.guess, config.sub
+ various improvments for MinGW (patch by Juergen Pfeifer):

+ change recommended regular expression library.
+ modify rain.c to allow for threaded configuraton.
+ modify tset.c to allow for case when size-change logic is not used.

exit() and checking for SIGTERM rather than SIGQUIT (prompted by
comments forwarded by Nicholas Marriott).
+ reduce name pollution from term.h, moving fallback #define's for
tcgetattr(), etc., to new private header nc_termios.h (report by
Sergio NNX).
+ two minor fixes for tracing (patch by Vassili Courzakis).
+ improve trace initialization by starting it in use_env() and
ripoffline().
+ review old email, add details for some changelog entries.
+ add check in test/configure for use_window, use_screen.
+ add configure-checks for getopt's variables, which may be declared
as different types on some Unix systems.
+ add check in test/configure for some legacy curses types of the
function pointer passed to tputs().
+ modify init_pair() to accept -1's for color value after
assume_default_colors() has been called (Debian #337905).
