+    6.2 (Feb 12, 2020)
+       Interface changes:
+
+       + the terminal database must be compiled with ncurses 6.2 tic;
+         older versions of tic/infocmp will not work.  Aside from that,
+         the compiled database will work with older applications.
+
+       + "*.pc" and "ncurses*-config" files give the same information.
+
+       + vwprintw and vwscanw are deprecated.
+
+       Added extensions:
+
+       + These make it simpler to substitute a debug-configuration of the
+         library for non-debug:
+               curses_trace
+               exit_curses
+               exit_terminfo
+
+       Added internal functions (other than "_sp" variants):
+
+       + These provide fast-lookup of common user-defined capabilities:
+               _nc_find_user_entry
+               _nc_get_userdefs_table
+               _nc_get_hash_user
+
+       + This is added to work around compiler-warnings:
+               _nc_fmt_funcptr
+
+       Removed internal functions:
+
+       + _nc_import_termtype
+
+       Modified internal functions:
+
+       + _nc_reserve_pairs no longer returns a value

-              a call to <STRONG>doupdate</STRONG>, but <STRONG>doupdate</STRONG> is the function responsible for
-              updating the <EM>physical</EM> <EM>screen</EM>.
-
-       <STRONG>del_panel(pan)</STRONG>
-              removes the given panel from  the   stack  and  deallocates  the
-              <STRONG>PANEL</STRONG> structure (but not its associated window).
-
-       <STRONG>hide_panel(pan)</STRONG>
-              removes  the  given panel from the panel stack and thus hides it
-              from view.  The <STRONG>PANEL</STRONG> structure is not lost, merely removed from
-              the stack.
-

-              returns  <STRONG>TRUE</STRONG> if the panel is in the panel stack, <STRONG>FALSE</STRONG> if it is
-              not.  If the panel is a null pointer, return <STRONG>ERR</STRONG>.
-
-       <STRONG>show_panel(pan)</STRONG>
-              makes a hidden panel visible by placing it on top of the  panels
-              in the panel stack.  See COMPATIBILITY below.
-
-       <STRONG>top_panel(pan)</STRONG>
-              puts  the given visible panel on top of all panels in the stack.
-              See COMPATIBILITY below.
-
-       <STRONG>bottom_panel(pan)</STRONG>
-              puts panel at the bottom of all panels.
-
