+20140816
+       + fix colors in ncurses 'b' test which did not work after changing
+         it to put the test-strings in subwindows (cf: 20140705).
+       + merge redundant SEE-ALSO sections in form and menu manpages.
+
+20140809
+       + modify declarations for user-data pointers in C++ binding to use
+         reinterpret_cast to facilitate converting typed pointers to void*
+         in user's application (patch by Adam Jiang).
+       + regenerated html manpages.
+       + add note regarding cause and effect for TERM in ncurses manpage,
+         having noted clueless verbiage in Terminal.app's "help" file
+         which reverses cause/effect.
+       + remove special fallback definition for NCURSES_ATTR_T, since macros
+         have resolved type-mismatches using casts (cf: 970412).
+       + fixes for win_driver.c:
+         + handle repainting on endwin/refresh combination.
+         + implement beep().
+         + minor cleanup.
+
 20140802
        + minor portability fixes for MinGW:
          + ensure WINVER is defined in makefiles rather than using headers
