+ modify the support for filesystems which do not support mixed-case to
generate 2-character (hexadecimal) codes for the lower-level of the
filesystem terminfo database (request by Michail Vidiassov).
+ add configure option --enable-mixed-case, to allow overriding the
configure script's check if the filesystem supports mixed-case
filenames.
+ add wresize() to C++ binding (request by Chris Lee).
+ define NCURSES_EXT_FUNCS and NCURSES_EXT_COLORS in curses.h to make
it simpler to tell if the extended functions and/or colors are
declared.
+ 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).
+ modify makefile rules to allow clear, tput and tset to be built
without libtic. The other programs (infocmp, tic and toe) rely on
that library.
+ add/modify null-pointer checks in several functions for SP and/or
the WINDOW* parameter (report by Thorben Krueger).
+ fixes for field_buffer() in formw library (see Redhat Bugzilla
#310071, patches by Miroslav Lichvar).
+ improve performance of NCURSES_CHAR_EQ code (patch by Miroslav
Lichvar).
+ update/improve mlterm and rxvt terminfo entries, e.g., for
the modified cursor- and keypad-keys -TD
+ 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 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).
+ amend treatment of infocmp "-r" option to retain the 1023-byte limit
unless "-T" is given (cf: 981017).
+ modify comp_captab.c generation to use big-strings.
+ make _nc_capalias_table and _nc_infoalias_table private accessed via
_nc_get_alias_table() since the tables are used only within the tic
library.
+ modify configure script to skip Intel compiler in CF_C_INLINE.
+ make _nc_info_hash_table and _nc_cap_hash_table private accessed via
_nc_get_hash_table() since the tables are used only within the tic
library.
+ 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).
+ add test/key_name.c
+ add stdscr cases to test/inchs.c and test_inch_wide.c
+ update test/configure
+ correct formatting of DEL (0x7f) in _nc_vischar().
+ null-terminate result of wunctrl().
+ add null-pointer check in key_name() (report by Andreas Krennmair,
cf: 20020901).
+ adapt mouse-handling code from menu library in form-library
(discussion with Clive Nicolson).
+ add a modification of test/dots.c, i.e., test/dots_mvcur.c to
illustrate how to use mvcur().
+ modify wide-character flavor of SetAttr() to preserve the
WidecExt() value stored in the .attr field, e.g., in case it
is overwritten by chgat (report by Aleksi Torhamo).
+ correct buffer-size for _nc_viswbuf2n() (report by Aleksi Torhamo).
+ build-fixes for Solaris 2.6 and 2.7 (patch by Peter O'Gorman).
+ 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().
+ regenerated html documentation.
+ add NCURSES_OPAQUE symbol to curses.h, will use to make structs
opaque in selected configurations.
+ move the chunk in lib_acs.c which resets acs capabilities when
running on a terminal whose locale interferes with those into
_nc_setupscreen(), so the libtinfo/libtinfow files can be made
identical (requested by Miroslav Lichvar).
+ do not use configure variable SHLIB_LIBS for building libraries
outside the ncurses directory, since that symbol is customized
only for that directory, and using it introduces an unneeded
dependency on libdl (requested by Miroslav Lichvar).
+ modify mk-1st.awk so the generated makefile rules for linking or
installing shared libraries do not first remove the library, in
case it is in use, e.g., libncurses.so by /bin/sh (report by Jeff
Chua).
+ revised section "Using NCURSES under XTERM" in ncurses-intro.html
(prompted by newsgroup comment by Nick Guenther).
+ change MKunctrl.awk to reduce relocation table for unctrl.o
+ change MKkeyname.awk to reduce relocation table for keyname.o
(patch by Miroslav Lichvar).
+ modify configure check for libtool's version to trim blank lines
(report by sci-fi@hush.ai).
+ modify some modules to allow them to be reentrant if _REENTRANT is
defined: lib_baudrate.c, resizeterm.c (local data only)
+ eliminate static data from some modules: add_tries.c, hardscroll.c,
lib_ttyflags.c, lib_twait.c
+ improve manpage install to add aliases for the transformed program
names, e.g., from --program-prefix.
+ used linklint to verify links in the HTML documentation, made fixes
to manpages as needed.
+ fix a typo in curs_mouse.3x (report by William McBrine).
+ fix install-rule for ncurses5-config to make the bin-directory.
