This is a log of changes that ncurses has gone through since Zeyd started
Changes through 1.9.9e did not credit all contributions;
it is not possible to add this information.
+20141206
+ + updated ".map" files so that each symbol that may be shared across
+ the different library configurations has the same label. Some
+ review is needed to ensure these are really compatible.
+ + modify MKlib_gen.sh to work around change in development version of
+ gcc introduced here:
+ https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-06/msg02185.html
+ https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-07/msg00236.html
+ (reports by Marcus Shawcroft, Maohui Lei).
+ + improved configure macro CF_SUBDIR_PATH, from lynx changes.
+
+20141129
+ + improved ".map" files by generating them with a script that builds
+ ncurses with several related configurations and merges the results.
+ A further refinement is planned, to make the tic- and tinfo-library
+ symbols use the same versions across each of the four configurations
+ which are represented (reports by Sven Joachim, Werner Fink).
+
20141115
+ improve description of limits for color values and color pairs in
curs_color.3x (prompted by patch by Tim van der Molen).
