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.
+20200816
+ + amend tic/infocmp check to allow for the respective tool's absence
+ (report by Steve Wills, cf: 20200808).
+ + improved some of the build-scripts with shellcheck
+ + filter out -MT/-MD/-MTd/-MDd options in script for Visual Studio C++
+ (discussion with "Maarten Anonymous").
+
+20200808
+ + improve discussion of the system's tic utility when used as part
+ of cross-compiling (discussion with Keith Marshall).
+ + modify configuration checks for build-time tic/infocmp to use
+ AC_CHECK_TOOL. That can still be overridden by --with-tic-path and
+ --with-infocmp-path when fallbacks are used, but even if not using
+ fallbacks, the improved check may help with cross-compiling
+ (discussion with Keith Marshall).
+ + other build-fixes for Ada95 with MinGW.
+ + modify Ada95 source-generation utility to write to a file given as
+ parameter rather than to the standard output, allowing builds with
+ MinGW.
+
+20200801
+ + remove remaining parts of checks for ISC Unix (cf: 20121006).
+ + add user32.lib to LDFLAGS for Visual Studio C++ configuration
+ (discussion with "Maarten Anonymous").
+ + modify MKkey_defs.sh to hide ncurses' definition of KEY_EVENTS to
+ reduce Visual Studio C++ redefinition warnings.
+ + improve/update checks for external functions in test/configure
+
20200725
+ set LINK_TESTS in CF_SHARED_OPTS for msvc (patch by
"Maarten Anonymous")
