+ modify _nc_keypad() to make it switch temporarily as needed to the
screen which must be updated.
+ wrap cur_term variable to help make _nc_keymap() thread-safe, and
always set the screen's copy of this variable in set_curterm().
+ restore curs_set() state after endwin()/refresh() (report/patch
Miroslav Lichvar)
+ add null-pointer checks in set_term() and delscreen().
+ move _nc_windows into _nc_globals, since windows can be pads, which
are not associated with a particular screen.
+ change use_screen() to pass the SCREEN* parameter rather than
stdscr to the callback function.
+ force libtool to use tag for 'CC' in case it does not detect this,
e.g., on aix when using CC=powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0-gcc
(report/patch by Michael Haubenwallner).
+ override OBJEXT to "lo" when building with libtool, to work on
platforms such as AIX where libtool supports only static libraries
(report/patch by Michael Haubenwallner).
+ add configure --with-pthread option, for building with the POSIX
thread library.
+ fix a size-difference in _nc_globals which caused hanging of mutex
lock/unlock when termlib was built separately.
+ avoid using nanosleep() in threaded configuration since that often
is implemented to suspend the entire process.
+ remove recursive-mutex definitions, finish threading demo for worm.c
+ remove a redundant adjustment of lines in resizeterm.c's
adjust_window() which caused occasional misadjustment of stdscr when
softkeys were used.
+ several improvements to terminfo entries based on xterm #230 -TD
+ modify MKlib_gen.sh to handle keyname/key_name prototypes, so the
"link_test" builds properly.
+ fix for toe command-line options -u/-U to ensure filename is given.
+ fix allocation-size for command-line parsing in infocmp from 20070728
(report by Miroslav Lichvar)
+ improve resizeterm() by moving ripped-off lines, and repainting the
soft-keys (report by Katarina Machalkova)
+ add clarification in wclear's manpage noting that the screen will be
cleared even if a subwindow is cleared (prompted by Christer Enfors
question).
+ change test/ncurses.c soft-key tests to work with KEY_RESIZE.
+ continue implementing support for threading demo by adding mutex
for use_window().
+ add mrxvt terminfo entry, add/fix xterm building blocks for modified
cursor keys -TD
+ compile with FreeBSD "contemporary" TTY interface (patch by
Rong-En Fan).
+ add new functions to lib_trace.c to setup mutex's for the _tracef()
calls within the ncurses library.
+ for the reentrant model, move _nc_tputs_trace and _nc_outchars into
the SCREEN.
+ start modifying test/worm.c to provide threading demo (incomplete).
+ separated ifdef's for some BSD-related symbols in tset.c, to make
it compile on LynxOS (report by Greg Gemmer).
+ add use_window() and use_screen() functions, to develop into support
for threaded library (incomplete).
+ fix typos in man/curs_opaque.3x which kept the install script from
creating symbolic links to two aliases created in 20070818 (report by
Rong-En Fan).
+ remove a spurious newline from output of html.m4, which caused links
for Ada95 html to be incorrect for the files generated using m4.
+ start investigating mutex's for SCREEN manipulation (incomplete).
+ minor cleanup of codes.c/names.c for --enable-const
+ expand/revise "Routine and Argument Names" section of ncurses manpage
to address report by David Givens in newsgroup discussion.
+ fix interaction between --without-progs/--with-termcap configure
options (report by Michail Vidiassov).
+ fix typo in "--disable-relink" option (report by Michail Vidiassov).
+ restore a call to obtain screen-size in _nc_setupterm(), which
is used in tput and other non-screen applications via setupterm()
(Debian #433357, reported by Florent Bayle, Christian Ohm,
cf: 20070310).
+ modify keyname() to use "^X" form only if meta() has been called, or
if keyname() is called without initializing curses, e.g., via
initscr() or newterm() (prompted by LinuxBase #1604).
+ document some portability issues in man/curs_util.3x
+ add a shadow copy of TTY buffer to _nc_prescreen to fix applications
broken by moving that data into SCREEN (cf: 20061230).
+ add 'O' (wide-character panel test) in ncurses.c to demonstrate a
problem reported by Sadrul H Chowdhury with repainting parts of
a fullwidth cell.
+ modify slk_init() so that if there are preceding calls to
ripoffline(), those affect the available lines for soft-keys (adapted
from patch by Clive Nicolson).
+ document some portability issues in man/curs_getyx.3x
+ 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().
