+       + improve discussion in curs_color.3x about color rendering (prompted
+         by comment on Stack Overflow forum):

+       + clarify handling of carriage return in waddch manual page; it was
+         discussed only in the portability section (prompted by comment on

+
 20150509
        + add test-packages for cross-compiling ncurses-examples using the
