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.
+20120721
+ + improved form_request_by_name() and menu_request_by_name().
+ + eliminate two fixed-size buffers in toe.c
+ + extend use_tioctl() to have expected behavior when use_env(FALSE) and
+ use_tioctl(TRUE) are called.
+ + modify ncurses test-program, adding -E and -T options to demonstrate
+ use_env() versus use_tioctl().
+
+20120714
+ + add use_tioctl() function (adapted from patch by Werner Fink,
+ Novell #769788):
+
+20120707
+ + add ncurses_mingw.h to installed headers (prompted by patch by
+ Juergen Pfeifer).
+ + clarify return-codes from wgetch() in response to SIGWINCH (prompted
+ by Novell #769788).
+ + modify resizeterm() to always push a KEY_RESIZE onto the fifo, even
+ if screensize is unchanged. Modify _nc_update_screensize() to push a
+ KEY_RESIZE if there was a SIGWINCH, even if it does not call
+ resizeterm(). These changes eliminate the case where a SIGWINCH is
+ received, but ERR returned from wgetch or wgetnstr because the screen
+ dimensions did not change (Novell #769788).
+
+20120630
+ + add --enable-interop to sample package scripts (suggested by Juergen
+ Pfeifer).
+ + update CF_PATH_SYNTAX macro, from mawk changes.
+ + modify mk-0th.awk to allow for generating llib-ltic, etc., though
+ some work is needed on cproto to work with lib_gen.c to update
+ llib-lncurses.
+ + remove redundant getenv() cal in database-iterator leftover from
+ cleanup in 20120622 changes (report by Sven Joachim).
+
+20120622
+ + add -d, -e and -q options to test/demo_terminfo and test/demo_termcap
+ + fix caching of environment variables in database-iterator (patch by
+ Philippe Troin, Redhat #831366).
+
+20120616
+ + add configure check to distinguish clang from gcc to eliminate
+ warnings about unused command-line parameters when compiler warnings
+ are enabled.
+ + improve behavior when updating terminfo entries which are hardlinked
+ by allowing for the possibility that an alias has been repurposed to
+ a new primary name.
+ + fix some strict compiler warnings based on package scripts.
+ + further fixes for configure check for working poll (Debian #676461).
+
20120608
+ fix an uninitialized variable in -c/-n logic for infocmp changes
(cf: 20120526).
