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.
+20070825
+ + fix a sign-extension bug in infocmp's repair_acsc() function
+ (cf: 971004).
+ + fix old configure script bug which prevented "--disable-warnings"
+ option from working (patch by Mike Frysinger).
+
+20070818
+ + add 9term terminal description (request by Juhapekka Tolvanen) -TD
+ + modify comp_hash.c's string output to avoid misinterpreting a null
+ "\0" followed by a digit.
+ + modify MKnames.awk and MKcodes.awk to support big-strings.
+ This only applies to the cases (broken linker, reentrant) where
+ the corresponding arrays are accessed via wrapper functions.
+ + split MKnames.awk into two scripts, eliminating the shell redirection
+ which complicated the make process and also the bogus timestamp file
+ which was introduced to fix "make -j".
+ + add test/test_opaque.c, test/test_arrays.c
+ + add wgetscrreg() and wgetparent() for applications that may need it
+ when NCURSES_OPAQUE is defined (prompted by Bryan Christ).
+
20070812
+ amend treatment of infocmp "-r" option to retain the 1023-byte limit
unless "-T" is given (cf: 981017).
