+20110101
+ + fix remaining strict compiler warnings in ncurses library ABI=5,
+ except those dealing with function pointers, etc.
+
+20101225
+ + modify nc_tparm.h, adding guards against repeated inclusion, and
+ allowing TPARM_ARG to be overridden.
+ + fix some strict compiler warnings in ncurses library.
+
+20101211
+ + suppress ncv in screen entry, allowing underline (patch by Alejandro
+ R Sedeno).
+ + also suppress ncv in konsole-base -TD
+ + fixes in wins_nwstr() and related functions to ensure that special
+ characters, i.e., control characters are handled properly with the
+ wide-character configuration.
+ + correct a comparison in wins_nwstr() (Redhat #661506).
+ + correct help-messages in some of the test-programs, which still
+ referred to quitting with 'q'.
+
+20101204
+ + add special case to _nc_infotocap() to recognize the setaf/setab
+ strings from xterm+256color and xterm+88color, and provide a reduced
+ version which works with termcap.
+ + remove obsolete emacs "Local Variables" section from documentation
+ (request by Sven Joachim).
+ + update doc/html/index.html to include NCURSES-Programming-HOWTO.html
+ (report by Sven Joachim).
+
+20101128
+ + modify test/configure and test/Makefile.in to handle this special
+ case of building within a build-tree (Debian #34182):
+ mkdir -p build && cd build && ../test/configure && make
+
+20101127
+ + miscellaneous build-fixes for Ada95 and test-directories when built
+ out-of-tree.
+ + use VPATH in makefiles to simplify out-of-tree builds (Debian #34182).

+
+20101120
+ + improve checks in test/configure for X libraries, from xterm #267
+ changes.
+ + modify test/configure to allow it to use the build-tree's libraries
+ e.g., when using that to configure the test-programs without the
+ rpath feature (request by Sven Joachim).
+ + repurpose "gnome" terminfo entries as "vte", retaining "gnome" items
+ for compatibility, but generally deprecating those since the VTE
+ library is what actually defines the behavior of "gnome", etc.,
+ since 2003 -TD
+
20101113
+ compiler warning fixes for test programs.
+ various build-fixes for test-programs with pdcurses.
