+	+ fill in some places where TERMTYPE2 vs TERMTYPE was not used
+	  (report by Allen Hewes).

+	  to help with leak checking.
+	+ use ExitProgram() in error-exit from initscr() to help with leak
+	  checking.
+	+ review test-programs, adding checks for cases where the terminal
+	  cannot be initialized.
+
+20170610
+	+ add option "-xp" to picsmap.c, to use init_extended_pair().
+	+ make simple performance fixes for picsmap.c

+20170603
+	+ add option to picsmap to use color-palette files, e.g., for mapping

+	+ move the data in SCREEN used for the alloc_pair() function to the
+	  end, to restore compatibility between ncurses/ncursesw libtinfo
+	  (report/patch by Miroslav Lichvar).
+	+ add build-time utility "report_offsets" to help show when the various
+	  configurations of tinfo library are compatible or not.
+
+20170527
+	+ improved test/picsmap.c:
+	  + lookup named colors for xpm files in rgb.txt
+	  + accept blanks in color-keys for xpm files.
+	  + if neither xbm/xpm work, try "convert", which may be available.
+
+20170520
+	+ modify test/picsmap.c to read xpm files.
+	+ modify package/debian/* to create documentation packages, so the
+	  related files can be checked with lintian.
+	+ fix some typos in manpages (report/patch by Sven Joachim).
+
+20170513
+	+ add test/picsmap.c to fill in some testing issues not met by dots.

+	+ improve tracemunch, showing screenXX pointers as names.
+
+20170506
+	+ modify tic/infocmp display of numeric values to use hexadecimal when

+	+ improve discussion of portability in curs_mouse.3x
+	+ change line-length for generated html/manpages to 78 columns from 65.
+	+ improve discussion of line-drawing characters in curs_add_wch.3x

+	+ add examples for WACS_D_PLUS and WACS_T_PLUS to test/ncurses.c
