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.
+20140712
+ + correct Charable() macro check for A_ALTCHARSET in wide-characters.
+ + build-fix for position-debug code in tty_update.c, to work with or
+ without sp-funcs.
+
+20140705
+ + add w/W toggle to ncurses.c 'B' test, to demonstrate permutation of
+ video-attributes and colors with double-width character strings.
+
+20140629
+ + correct check in win_driver.c for saving screen contents, e.g., when
+ NCURSES_CONSOLE2 is set (cf: 20140503).
+ + reorganize b/B menu items in ncurses.c, putting the test-strings into
+ subwindows. This is needed for a planned change to use Unicode
+ fullwidth characters in the test-screens.
+ + correct update to form status for _NEWTOP, broken by fixes for
+ compiler warnings (patch by Leon Winter, cf: 20120616).
+
+20140621
+ + change shared-library suffix for AIX 5 and 6 to ".so", avoiding
+ conflict with the static library (report by Ben Lentz).
+ + document RPATH_LIST in INSTALLATION file, as part of workarounds for
+ upgrading an ncurses library using the "--with-shared" option.
+ + modify test/ncurses.c c/C tests to cycle through subsets of the
+ total number of colors, to better illustrate 8/16/88/256-colors by
+ providing directly comparable screens.
+ + add test/dots_curses.c, for comparison with the low-level examples.
+
20140614
+ fix dereference before null check found by Coverity in tic.c
(cf: 20140524).
