+ 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).
+ modify test/background.c, adding commmand-line options to demonstrate
assume_default_colors() and use_default_colors().
+ fixes to build c++ binding with clang 3.0 (patch by Alexander
Kolesen).
+ add check for unctrl.h in test/configure, to work around breakage in
some ncurses packages.
+ add "--disable-widec" option to test/configure script.
+ add "--with-curses-colr" and "--with-curses-5lib" options to the
test/configure script to address testing with very old machines.
+ add special check in Ada95/configure script for ncurses6 reentrant
code.
+ regen Ada html documentation.
+ build-fix for Ada shared libraries versus the varargs workaround.
+ add rpm and dpkg scripts for Ada95 and test directories, for test
builds.
+ update test/configure macros CF_CURSES_LIBS, CF_XOPEN_SOURCE and
CF_X_ATHENA_LIBS.
+ add configure check to determine if gnat's project feature supports
libraries, i.e., collections of .ali files.
+ make all dereferences in Ada95 samples explicit.
+ fix typo in comment in lib_add_wch.c (patch by Petr Pavlu).
+ add configure check for, ifdef's for math.h which is in a separate
package on Solaris and potentially not installed (report by Petr
Pavlu).
> fixes for Ada95 binding (Nicolas Boulenguez):
+ improve type-checking in Ada95 by eliminating a few warning-suppress
pragmas.
+ suppress unreferenced warnings.
+ make all dereferences in binding explicit.
+ modify Ada95/configure script to make the --with-curses-dir option
work without requiring the --with-ncurses option.
+ modify test programs to allow them to be built with NetBSD curses.
+ document thick- and double-line symbols in curs_add_wch.3x manpage.
+ document WACS_xxx constants in curs_add_wch.3x manpage.
+ fix some warnings for clang 2.6 "--analyze"
+ modify Ada95 makefiles to make html-documentation with the project
file configuration if that is used.
+ update config.guess, config.sub
+ miscellaneous build-fixes for Ada95 and test-directories when built
out-of-tree.
+ use VPATH in makefiles to simplify out-of-tree builds (Debian #34182).
+ fix typo in rmso for tek4106 entry -Goran Weinholt
+ 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)
+ 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).
+ corrected gcc options for building shared libraries on IRIX64.
+ add configure check for awk programs unable to handle big-strings,
use that to improve the default for --enable-big-strings option.
+ makefile-fixes for --enable-weak-symbols (report by Frederic L W
Meunier).
+ update test/configure script.
+ adapt ifdef's from library to make test/view.c build when mbrtowc()
is unavailable, e.g., with HPUX 10.20.
+ add configure check for wcsrtombs, mbsrtowcs, which are used in
test/ncurses.c, and use wcstombs, mbstowcs instead if available,
fixing build of ncursew for HPUX 11.00
+ add configure option --enable-weak-symbols to turn on new feature.
+ add configure-check for availability of weak symbols.
+ modify linkage with pthread library to use weak symbols so that
applications not linked to that library will not use the mutexes,
etc. This relies on gcc, and may be platform-specific (patch by Dr
Werner Fink).
+ add note to INSTALL to document limitation of renaming of tic library
using the --with-ticlib configure option (report by Dr Werner Fink).
+ document (in manpage) why tputs does not detect I/O errors (prompted
by comments by Samuel Thibault).
+ fix remaining warnings from Klocwork report.
+ update test programs to build/work with various UNIX curses for
comparisons. This was to reinvestigate statement in X/Open curses
that insnstr and winsnstr perform wrapping. None of the Unix-branded
implementations do this, as noted in manpage (cf: 20040228).
+ add code to curses.priv.h ifdef'd with NCURSES_CHAR_EQ, which
changes the CharEq() macro to an inline function to allow comparing
cchar_t struct's without comparing gaps in a possibly unpacked
memory layout (report by Miroslav Lichvar).
+ add a configure check for gcc's options for inlining, use that to
quiet a warning message where gcc's default behavior changed from
3.x to 4.x.
+ improve warning message when checking if GPM is linked to curses
library by not warning if its use of "wgetch" is via a weak symbol.
+ add loader options when building with static libraries to ensure that
an installed shared library for ncurses does not conflict. This is
reported as problem with Tru64, but could affect other platforms
(report Martin Mokrejs, analysis by Tim Mooney).
+ fix build on cygwin after recent ticlib/termlib changes, i.e.,
+ adjust TINFO_SUFFIX value to work with cygwin's dll naming
+ revert a change from 20070303 which commented out dependency of
SHLIB_LIST in form/menu/panel/c++ libraries.
+ fix initialization of ripoff stack pointer (cf: 20070421).
+ increase size of array in _nc_visbuf2n() to make "tic -v" work
properly in its similar_sgr() function (report/analysis by Peter
Santoro).
+ add --enable-reentrant configure option for ongoing changes to
implement a reentrant version of ncurses:
+ libraries are suffixed with "t"
+ wrap several global variables (curscr, newscr, stdscr, ttytype,
COLORS, COLOR_PAIRS, COLS, ESCDELAY, LINES and TABSIZE) as
functions returning values stored in SCREEN or cur_term.
+ move some initialization (LINES, COLS) from lib_setup.c,
i.e., setupterm() to _nc_setupscreen(), i.e., newterm().
+ modify fix_wchnstr() in form library to strip attributes (and color)
from the cchar_t array (field cells) read from a field's window.
Otherwise, when copying the field cells back to the window, the
associated color overrides the field's background color (report by
Ricardo Cantu).
+ improve tracing for form library, showing created forms, fields, etc.
+ ignore --enable-rpath configure option if --with-shared was omitted.
+ add _nc_leaks_tinfo(), _nc_free_tic(), _nc_free_tinfo() entrypoints
to allow leak-checking when both tic- and tinfo-libraries are built.
+ drop CF_CPP_VSCAN_FUNC macro from configure script, since C++ binding
no longer relies on it.
+ disallow combining configure script options --with-ticlib and
--enable-termcap (report by Rong-En Fan).
+ remove tack from ncurses tree.
