+ 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
+ modify configure script and makefiles in c++ and progs to allow the
directory used for rpath option to be overridden, e.g., to work
around updates to the variables used by tic during an install.
+ add -K option to tic/infocmp, to provide stricter BSD-compatibility
for termcap output.
+ add _nc_strict_bsd variable in tic library which controls the
"strict" BSD termcap compatibility from 20110723, plus these
features:
+ allow escapes such as "\8" and "\9" when reading termcap
+ disallow "\a", "\e", "\l", "\s" and "\:" escapes when reading
termcap files, passing through "a", "e", etc.
+ expand "\:" as "\072" on output.
+ modify _nc_get_token() to reset the token's string value in case
there is a string-typed token lacking the "=" marker.
+ fix a few memory leaks in _nc_tgetent.
+ fix a few places where reading from a termcap file could refer to
freed memory.
+ add an overflow check when converting terminfo/termcap numeric
values, since terminfo stores those in a short, and they must be
positive.
+ correct internal variables used for translating to termcap "%>"
feature, and translating from termcap %B to terminfo, needed by
tctest (cf: 19991211).
+ amend a minor fix to acsc when loading a termcap file to separate it
from warnings needed for tic (cf: 20040710)
+ modify logic in _nc_read_entry() and _nc_read_tic_entry() to allow
a termcap file to be handled via TERMINFO_DIRS.
+ modify _nc_infotocap() to include non-mandatory padding when
translating to termcap.
+ modify _nc_read_termcap_entry(), passing a flag in the case where
getcap is used, to reduce interactive warning messages.
+ correct limit-check in wredrawln, accounting for begy/begx values
(patch by David Benjamin).
+ fix most compiler warnings from clang.
+ amend build-fix for OpenSolaris, to ensure that a system header is
included in curses.h before testing feature symbols, since they
may be defined by that route.
+ fix some strict compiler warnings in ncurses library.
+ modify configure macro CF_HEADER_PATH to not look for variations in
the predefined include directories.
+ improve configure macros CF_GCC_VERSION and CF_GCC_WARNINGS to work
with gcc 4.x's c89 alias, which gives warning messages for cases
where older versions would produce an error.
+ modify _nc_capcmp() to work with cancelled strings.
+ correct translation of "^" in _nc_infotocap(), used to transform
terminfo to termcap strings
+ add configure --disable-rpath-hack, to allow disabling the feature
which adds rpath options for libraries in unusual places.
+ improve CF_RPATH_HACK_2 by checking if the rpath option for a given
directory was already added.
+ improve CF_RPATH_HACK_2 by using ldd to provide a standard list of
directories (which will be ignored).
+ for term-driver configuration, ensure that the driver pointer is
initialized in setupterm so that terminfo/termcap programs work.
+ amend fix for Debian #542031 to ensure that wattrset() returns only
OK or ERR, rather than the attribute value (report by Miroslav
Lichvar).
+ reorder WINDOWLIST to put WINDOW data after SCREEN pointer, making
_nc_screen_of() compatible between normal/wide libraries again (patch
by Miroslav Lichvar)
+ review/fix include-dependencies in modules files (report by Miroslav
Lichvar).
+ improve performance of tigetstr, etc., by using hashing code from tic.
+ minor fixes for memory-leak checking.
+ add test/demo_terminfo, for comparison with demo_termcap
+ 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.
+ modify _nc_panelhook() data to account for a permanent memory leak.
+ fix memory leaks in test/demo_menus
+ fix most warnings from Klocwork tool (report by Larry Zhou).
+ modify configure script CF_XOPEN_SOURCE macro to add case for
"dragonfly" from xterm #236 changes.
+ modify configure script --with-hashed-db to let $LIBS override the
search for the db library (prompted by report by Samson Pierre).
+ 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.
+ make _nc_capalias_table and _nc_infoalias_table private, accessed via
_nc_get_alias_table() since they are used only by parse_entry.c
+ make _nc_key_names private since it is used only by lib_keyname.c
+ add --disable-big-strings configure option to control whether
unctrl.c is generated using the big-string optimization - which may
use strings longer than supported by a given compiler.
+ reduce relocation tables for tic, infocmp by changing type of
internal hash tables to short, and make those private symbols.
+ eliminate large fixed arrays from progs/infocmp.c
