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.
+20120407
+ + fix an inconsistency between tic/infocmp "-x" option; tic omits all
+ non-standard capabilities, while infocmp was ignoring only the user
+ definable capabilities.
+ + improve special case in tic parsing of description to allow it to be
+ followed by terminfo capabilities. Previously the description had to
+ be the last field on an input line to allow tic to distinguish
+ between termcap and terminfo format while still allowing commas to be
+ embedded in the description.
+ + correct variable name in gen_edit.sh which broke configurability of
+ the --with-xterm-kbs option.
+ + revert 2011-07-16 change to "linux" alias, return to "linux2.2" -TD
+ + further amend 20110910 change, providing for configure-script
+ override of the "linux" terminfo entry to install and changing the
+ default for that to "linux2.2" (Debian #665959).
+
+20120331
+ + update Ada95/configure to use CF_DISABLE_ECHO (cf: 20120317).
+ + correct order of use-clauses in st-256color -TD
+ + modify configure script to look for gnatgcc if the Ada95 binding
+ is built, in preference to the default gcc/cc (suggested by
+ Nicolas Boulenguez).
+ + modify configure script to ensure that the same -On option used for
+ the C compiler in CFLAGS is used for ADAFLAGS rather than simply
+ using -O3 (suggested by Nicolas Boulenguez)
+
20120324
+ amend an old fix so that next_char() exits properly for empty files,
e.g., from reading /dev/null (cf: 20080804).
