+ correct logic for discarding mouse events, retaining the partial
events used to build up click, double-click, etc, until needed
(cf: 20110917).
+ fix configure script to avoid creating unused Ada95 makefile when
gnat does not work.
+ cleanup width-related gcc 3.4.3 warnings for 64-bit platform, for the
internal functions of libncurses. The external interface of courses
uses bool, which still produces these warnings.
+ 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).
+ remove wide-character checks from unctrl() (patch by Clemens Ladisch).
+ revise wadd_wch() and wecho_wchar() to eliminate dependency on
unctrl().
+ continue integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer (incomplete).
+ continue integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer (incomplete).
+ modify declaration of cur_term when broken-linker is used, but
enable-reentrant is not, to match pre-5.7 (report by Charles Wilson).
+ add configure script --enable-sp-funcs to enable the new set of
extended functions.
+ start integrating patches by Juergen Pfeifer:
+ add extended functions which specify the SCREEN pointer for several
curses functions which use the global SP (these are incomplete;
some internals work is needed to complete these).
+ add special cases to configure script for MinGW port.
+ 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.
+ correct some ifdef's needed for the broken-linker configuration.
+ make debugging library's $BAUDRATE feature work for termcap
interface.
+ make $NCURSES_NO_PADDING feature work for termcap interface (prompted
by comment on FreeBSD mailing list).
+ add screen.mlterm terminfo entry -TD
+ improve mlterm and mlterm+pcfkeys terminfo entries -TD
+ finish changes to wgetch(), making it switch as needed to the
window's actual screen when calling wrefresh() and wgetnstr(). That
allows wgetch() to get used concurrently in different threads with
some minor restrictions, e.g., the application should not delete a
window which is being used in a wgetch().
+ simplify mutex's, combining the window- and screen-mutex's.
+ 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)
+ modify screen.* terminfo entries using new screen+fkeys to fix
overridden keys in screen.rxvt (Debian #478094) -TD
+ modify internal interfaces to reduce wgetch()'s dependency on the
global SP.
+ simplify some loops with macros each_screen(), each_window() and
each_ripoff().
+ continue modifying test/ditto.c toward making it demonstrate
multithreaded use_screen(), using fifos to pass data between screens.
+ fix typo in form.3x (report by Mike Gran).
+ 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.
