+ update release notes + minor build-fixes, mostly to test-package scripts + modify check for sizeof(wchar_t) to ensure it gives useful result when cross-compiling. + drop assumption in configure script that Cygwin's linker is broken. + define NCURSES_BROKEN_LINKER if the broken-linker feature is used, to simplify configure-checks for ncurses-examples. + reassert copyright on ncurses, per discussion in ncurses FAQ: https://invisible-island.net/ncurses/ncurses.faq.html#relicensed + modify comparison in make_hash.c to correct a special case in collision handling for Caps-hpux11 + add testing utility report_hashing to check hash-tables used for terminfo and termcap names. + fix a missing prototype for _nc_free_and_exit(). + update a few comments about tack 1.07 + use an awk script to split too-long pathnames used in Ada95 sample programs for explain.txt

You can build ncurses on OS/2 in the EMX environment. But you must build and
|
|
acquire tools. Not all of the tools distributed with EMX work properly, and
|
|
some additional ones are required.
|
|
|
|
First, the configure script distributed with ncurses will not run as-is in EMX.
|
|
You can generate a new one if you have autoconf built for EMX. You will need
|
|
the EMX development tools, of course. Get these programs to start:
|
|
|
|
GNU m4 program (version 1.4)
|
|
GNU autoconf (version 2.13).
|
|
GNU patch (version 2.5)
|
|
|
|
Apply the autoconf patches from
|
|
|
|
https://invisible-island.net/autoconf
|
|
ftp://ftp.invisible-island.net/autoconf
|
|
|
|
These are ordered by date:
|
|
|
|
autoconf-2.13-20030927.patch.gz
|
|
autoconf-2.13-20030927-emx.patch.gz
|
|
|
|
I built my development environment for ncurses using EMX 0.9c at the end of
|
|
1997. Much of the EMX patch for autoconf was done originally by J.J.G.Ripoll,
|
|
using a similar environment (he prefers using the 'ash' shell). Newer versions
|
|
may fix these problems:
|
|
|
|
+ The pdksh program distributed at Hobbes and Leo (with a 1996 date) is
|
|
defective. It does not process "here documents" correctly (which
|
|
renders it useless for running the autoconf script). I built my own
|
|
copy of pdksh 5.2.13, which does have the bug corrected (documented
|
|
in the change log for pdksh).
|
|
|
|
+ I also built from sources (because the distributed binaries did not
|
|
work) the cmp, diff programs.
|
|
|
|
Other required utilities such as ar, cat, chmod, cp, gawk, grep, mv,
|
|
ls, rm, mkdir, sed, sort and tr worked.
|
|
|
|
Once you have autoconf patched and installed, run 'autoconf' from the top-level
|
|
directory of ncurses to generate the EMX-specific configure script.
