+       + in-progress changes to win_driver.c to implement output without
+         allocating a console-buffer.  This uses a pre-existing environment
+         variable NCGDB used by Juergen Pfeifer for debugging (prompted by
+         discussion with Erwin Waterlander regarding Console2, which hangs
+         when reading in an allocated console-buffer).
+       + add -t option to gdc.c, and modify to accept "S" to step through the
+         scrolling-stages.
+       + regenerate NCURSES-Programming-HOWTO.html to fix some of the broken
+         html emitted by docbook.
