ncurses 6.3 - patch 20220115 + improve checks for valid mouse events when an intermediate mouse state is not part of the mousemask specified by the caller (report by Anton Vidovic, cf: 20111022). + use newer version 1.36 of gnathtml for generating Ada html files.
ncurses 6.2 - patch 20200212 + 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
ncurses 6.1 - patch 20190317 + regenerate llib-* files. + modify tic to also use new function for user-defined capability info. + modify _nc_parse_entry() to check if a user-defined capability has an unexpected type; ignore it in that case. + fix a special case of link-anchors in generated Ada html files. + use newer rel=author tag in generated html rather than rev=made, which did not become accepted.
ncurses 5.9 - patch 20140524 + fix typo in ncurses manpage for the NCURSES_NO_MAGIC_COOKIE environment variable. + improve discussion of input-echoing in curs_getch.3x + clarify discussion in curs_addch.3x of wrapping. + modify parametrized.h to make fln non-padded. + correct several entries which had termcap-style padding used in terminfo: adm21, aj510, alto-h19, att605-pc, x820 -TD + correct syntax for padding in some entries: dg211, h19 -TD + correct ti924-8 which had confused padding versus octal escapes -TD + correct padding in sbi entry -TD + fix an old bug in the termcap emulation; "%i" was ignored in tparm() because the parameters to be incremented were already on the internal stack (report by Corinna Vinschen). + modify tic's "-c" option to take into account the "-C" option to activate additional checks which compare the results from running tparm() on the terminfo expressions versus the translated termcap expressions. + modify tic to allow it to read from FIFOs (report by Matthieu Fronton, cf: 20120324). > patches by Nicolas Boulenguez: + explicit dereferences to suppress some style warnings. + when c_varargs_to_ada.c includes its header, use double quotes instead of <>. + samples/ncurses2-util.adb: removed unused with clause. The warning was removed by an obsolete pragma. + replaced Unreferenced pragmas with Warnings (Off). The latter, available with older GNATs, needs no configure test. This also replaces 3 untested Unreferenced pragmas. + simplified To_C usage in trace handling. Using two parameters allows some basic formatting, and avoids a warning about security with some compiler flags. + for generated Ada sources, replace many snippets with one pure package. + removed C_Chtype and its conversions. + removed C_AttrType and its conversions. + removed conversions between int, Item_Option_Set, Menu_Option_Set. + removed int, Field_Option_Set, Item_Option_Set conversions. + removed C_TraceType, Attribute_Option_Set conversions. + replaced C.int with direct use of Eti_Error, now enumerated. As it was used in a case statement, values were tested by the Ada compiler to be consecutive anyway. + src/Makefile.in: remove duplicate stanza + only consider using a project for shared libraries. + style. Silent gnat-4.9 warning about misplaced "then". + generate shared library project to honor ADAFLAGS, LDFLAGS.
ncurses 5.9 - patch 20130518 + corrected ifdefs in test/testcurs.c to allow comparison of mouse interface versus pdcurses (cf: 20130316). + add pow() to configure-check for math library, needed since 20121208 for test/hanoi (Debian #708056). + regenerated html manpages. + update doctype used for html documentation.
ncurses 5.8 - patch 20110319 + regen Ada html documentation. + change order of -I options from ncurses*-config script when the --disable-overwrite option was used, so that the subdirectory include is listed first. + modify the make-tar.sh scripts to add a MANIFEST and NEWS file. + modify configure script to provide value for HTML_DIR in Ada95/gen/Makefile.in, which depends on whether the Ada95 binding is distributed separately (report by Nicolas Boulenguez). + modify configure script to add -g and/or -O3 to ADAFLAGS if the CFLAGS for the build has these options. + amend change from 20070324, to not add 1 to the result of getmaxx and getmaxy in the Ada binding (report by Nicolas Boulenguez for thread in comp.lang.ada). + build-fix Ada95/samples for gnat 4.5 + spelling fixes for Ada95/samples/explain.txt > fixes for Ada95 binding (Nicolas Boulenguez): + add item in Trace_Attribute_Set corresponding to TRACE_ATTRS. + add workaround for binding to set_field_type(), which uses varargs. The original binding from 990220 relied on the prevalent implementation of varargs which did not support or need va_copy(). + add dependency on gen/Makefile.in needed for *-panels.ads + add Library_Options to library.gpr + add Languages to library.gpr, for gprbuild
ncurses 5.7 - patch 20100109 + modify configure macro CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, etc., to use CF_ADD_CFLAGS consistently to add new -D's while removing duplicates. + modify a few configure macros to consistently put new options before older in the list. + add tiparm(), based on review of X/Open Curses Issue 7. + minor documentation cleanup. + update config.guess, config.sub from http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/config (caveat - its maintainer put 2010 copyright date on files dated 2009)
ncurses 5.6 - patch 20081011 + update html documentation. + add -m and -s options to test/keynames.c and test/key_names.c to test the meta() function with keyname() or key_name(), respectively. + correct return value of key_name() on error; it is null. + document some unresolved issues for rpath and pthreads in TO-DO. + fix a missing prototype for ioctl() on OpenBSD in tset.c + add configure option --disable-tic-depends to make explicit whether tic library depends on ncurses/ncursesw library, amends change from 20080823 (prompted by Debian #501421).
