+20080112
+ + 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.
+
+20080105
+ + 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.
+
+20071222
+ + continue implementing support for threading demo by adding mutex
+ for delwin().
+
+20071215
+ + add several functions to C++ binding which wrap C functions that
+ pass a WINDOW* parameter (request by Chris Lee).
+
+20071201
+ + add note about configure options needed for Berkeley database to the
+ INSTALL file.

+
+20071124
+ + modify configure option --with-hashed-db to accept a parameter which
+ is the install-prefix of a given Berkeley Database (prompted by
+ pierre4d2 comments).
+ + rewrite wrapper for wcrtomb(), making it work on Solaris. This is
+ used in the form library to determine the length of the buffer needed
+ by field_buffer (report by Alfred Fung).
+ + remove unneeded window-parameter from C++ binding for wresize (report
+ by Chris Lee).
+
+20071117
+ + modify the support for filesystems which do not support mixed-case to
+ generate 2-character (hexadecimal) codes for the lower-level of the

+ + compile with FreeBSD "contemporary" TTY interface (patch by

+
+20071013
+ + modify makefile rules to allow clear, tput and tset to be built

+ 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
+
+20071006
+ + add code to curses.priv.h ifdef'd with NCURSES_CHAR_EQ, which

+ 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

+20070915
+ + modify Ada95/gen/Makefile to use shlib script, to simplify building
+ shared-library configuration on platforms lacking rpath support.
+ + build-fix for Ada95/src/Makefile to reflect changed dependency for
+ the terminal-interface-curses-aux.adb file which is now generated.
+ + restructuring test/worm.c, for use_window() example.
+
+20070908
+ + 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).
+
+20070901
+ + 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).

+ + fix old configure script bug which prevented "--disable-warnings"
+ option from working (patch by Mike Frysinger).
+
+20070818
+ + add 9term terminal description (request by Juhapekka Tolvanen) -TD
+ + modify comp_hash.c's string output to avoid misinterpreting a null
+ "\0" followed by a digit.
+ + modify MKnames.awk and MKcodes.awk to support big-strings.
+ This only applies to the cases (broken linker, reentrant) where
+ the corresponding arrays are accessed via wrapper functions.
+ + split MKnames.awk into two scripts, eliminating the shell redirection
+ which complicated the make process and also the bogus timestamp file
+ which was introduced to fix "make -j".
+ + add test/test_opaque.c, test/test_arrays.c
+ + add wgetscrreg() and wgetparent() for applications that may need it
+ when NCURSES_OPAQUE is defined (prompted by Bryan Christ).
+
+20070812
+ + 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.
+
+20070728
+ + 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
+
+20070721
+ + change winnstr() to stop at the end of the line (cf: 970315).
+ + add test/test_get_wstr.c
+ + add test/test_getstr.c
+ + add test/test_inwstr.c
+ + add test/test_instr.c

+20070716
+ + 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).
+
+20070714
+ + add test/savescreen.c test-program
+ + add check to trace-file open, if the given name is a directory, add
+ ".log" to the name and try again.
+ + add konsole-256color entry -TD

+ + update config.guess, config.sub
+
+20070707
+ + add continuous-move "M" to demo_panels to help test refresh changes.
+ + improve fix for refresh of window on top of multi-column characters,
+ taking into account some split characters on left/right window
+ boundaries.
+
+20070630
+ + add "widec" row to _tracedump() output to help diagnose remaining
+ problems with multi-column characters.
+ + partial fix for refresh of window on top of multi-column characters
+ which are partly overwritten (report by Sadrul H Chowdhury).
+ + ignore A_CHARTEXT bits in vidattr() and vid_attr(), in case
+ multi-column extension bits are passed there.
+ + add setlocale() call to demo_panels.c, needed for wide-characters.
+ + add some output flags to _nc_trace_ttymode to help diagnose a bug
+ report by Larry Virden, i.e., ONLCR, OCRNL, ONOCR and ONLRET,
+
+20070623
+ + add test/demo_panels.c

+
+20070612
+ + corrected xterm+pcf2 terminfo modifiers for F1-F4, to match xterm

+ 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).
+
+20070526
+ + modify keyname() to use "^X" form only if meta() has been called, or
