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.
+20170401
+ + minor fixes for vt100+4bsd, e.g., delay in sgr for consistency -TD
+ + add smso for env230, to match sgr -TD
+ + remove p7/protect from sgr in fbterm -TD
+ + drop setf/setb from fbterm; setaf/setab are enough -TD
+ + make xterm-pcolor sgr consistent with other capabilities -TD
+ + add rmxx/smxx ECMA-48 strikeout extension to tmux and xterm-basic
+ (discussion with Nicholas Marriott)
+ + add test-programs sp_tinfo and extended_color
+ + modify no-leaks code for lib_cur_term.c to account for the tgetent()
+ cache.
+ + modify setupterm() to save original tty-modes so that erasechar()
+ works as expected. Also modify _nc_setupscreen() to avoid redundant
+ calls to get original tty-modes.
+ + modify set_curterm() to update ttytype[] data used by longname().
+ + modify wattr_set() and wattr_get() to return ERR if win-parameter is
+ null, as documented.
+ + improve cast used for null-pointer checks in header macros, to
+ reduce compiler warnings.
+ + modify several functions, using the reserved "opts" parameter to pass
+ color- and pair-values larger than 16-bits:
+ + getcchar(), setcchar(), slk_attr_set(), vid_puts(), wattr_get(),
+ wattr_set(), wchgat(), wcolor_set().
+ + Other functions call these with the corresponding altered behavior,
+ including chgat(), mvchgat(), mvwchgat(), slk_color_on(),
+ slk_color_off(), vid_attr().
+ + add new functions for manipulating color- and pair-values larger
+ than 16-bits. These are extended_color_content(),
+ extended_pair_content(), extended_slk_color(), init_extended_color(),
+ init_extended_pair(), and the corresponding sp-funcs.
+
+20170325
+ + fix a memory leak in the window-list when creating multiple screens
+ (reports by Andres Martinelli, Debian #783486).
+ + reviewed calls from link_test.c, added a few more null-pointer
+ checks.
+ + add a null-pointer check in ungetmouse, in case mousemask was not
+ called (report by "Kau").
+ + updated curs_sp_funcs.3x for new functions.
+
20170318
+ change TERMINAL structure in term.h to make it opaque. Some
applications misuse its members, e.g., directly modifying it
