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.
+20111008
+ + moved static data from db_iterator.c to lib_data.c
+ + modify db_iterator.c for memory-leak checking, fix one leak.
+ + modify misc/gen-pkgconfig.in to use Requires.private for the parts
+ of ncurses rather than Requires, as well as Libs.private for the
+ other library dependencies (prompted by Debian #644728).
+
+20111001
+ + modify tic "-K" option to only set the strict-flag rather than force
+ source-output. That allows the same flag to control the parser for
+ input and output of termcap source.
+ + modify _nc_getent() to ignore backslash at the end of a comment line,
+ making it consistent with ncurses' parser.
+ + restore a special-case check for directory needed to make termcap
+ text files load as if they were databases (cf: 20110924).
+ + modify tic's resolution/collision checking to attempt to remove the
+ conflicting alias from the second entry in the pair, which is
+ normally following in the source file. Also improved the warning
+ message to make it simpler to see which alias is the problem.
+ + improve performance of the database iterator by caching search-list.
+
20110925
+ add a missing "else" in changes to _nc_read_tic_entry().
