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.
+20200301
+ + modify wbkgd() and wbkgrnd() to avoid storing a null in the
+ background character, because it may be used in cases where the
+ corresponding 0x80 is not treated as a null (report by Marc Rechte,
+ cf: 20181208).
+
+20200229
+ + modify CF_NCURSES_CONFIG to work around xcode's c99 "-W" option,
+ which conflicts with conventional use for passing linker options.
+ > fixes for building with Visual Studio C++ and msys2 (patches by
+ "Maarten Anonymous"):
+ + check for pcre2posix.h instead of pcre2-posix.h
+ + add case in CF_SHARED_OPTS for msys2 + msvc
+ + add fallback definition for STDIN_FILENO in progs.priv.h
+ + modify win_driver.c to use _alloca() rather than gcc's variable
+ length array feature.
+ + add NCURSES_IMPEXP to ncurses wrapped-variable declarations
+ + remove NCURSES_IMPEXP from class variables in c++/cursslk.h
+ + remove fallback prototype for exit() from c++/etip.h.in
+ + use configured check for <sys/time.h> in a couple of places
+ + conditionally include winsock.h in ncurses/win32con/gettimeofday.c,
+ because Visual Studio needs this for the timestruct declaration.
+ + adjust syntax in a couple of files using the NCURSES_API symbol.
+
20200222
+ expanded note in ncurses.3x regarding automatically-included headers
+ improve vt50h and vt52 based on DECScope manual -TD
