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.
+20150926
+ + change makefile rule for removing resulting.map to distclean rather
+ than clean.
+ + add /lib/terminfo to terminfo-dirs in ".deb" test-package.
+ + add note on portability of resizeterm and wresize to manual pages.
+
+20150919
+ + clarify in resizeterm.3x how KEY_RESIZE is pushed onto the input
+ stream.
+ + clarify in curs_getch.3x that the keypad mode affects ability to
+ read KEY_MOUSE codes, but does not affect KEY_RESIZE.
+ + add overlooked build-fix needed with Cygwin for separate Ada95
+ configure script, cf: 20150606 (report by Nicolas Boulenguez)
+
+20150912
+ + fixes for configure/build using clang on OSX (prompted by report by
+ William Gallafent).
+ + do not redefine "inline" in ncurses_cfg.h; this was originally to
+ solve a problem with gcc/g++, but is aggravated by clang's misuse
+ of symbols to pretend it is gcc.
+ + add braces to configure script to prevent unwanted add of
+ "-lstdc++" to the CXXLIBS symbol.
+ + improve/update test-program used for checking existence of stdc++
+ library.
+ + if $CXXLIBS is set, the linkage test uses that in addition to $LIBS
+
+20150905
+ + add note in curs_addch.3x about line-drawing when it depends upon
+ UTF-8.
+ + add tic -q option for consistency with infocmp, use it to suppress
+ all comments from the "tic -I" output.
+ + modify infocmp -q option to suppress the "Reconstructed from"
+ header.
+ + add infocmp/tic -Q option, which allows one to dump the compiled
+ form of the terminal entry, in hexadecimal or base64.
+
+20150822
+ + sort options in usage message for infocmp, to make it simpler to
+ see unused letters.
+ + update usage message for tic, adding "-0" option.
+ + documented differences in ESCDELAY versus AIX's implementation.
+ + fix some compiler warnings from ports.
+ + modify --with-pkg-config-libdir option to make it possible to install
+ ".pc" files even if pkg-config is not found (adapted from patch by
+ Joshua Root).
+
+20150815
+ + disallow "no" as a possible value for "--with-shlib-version" option,
+ overlooked in cleanup-changes for 20000708 (report by Tommy Alex).
+ + update release notes in INSTALL.
+ + regenerate llib-* files to help with review for release notes.
+
+20150810
+ + workaround for Debian #65617, which was fixed in mawk's upstream
+ releases in 2009 (report by Sven Joachim). See
+ http://invisible-island.net/mawk/CHANGES.html#t20090727
