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.
+20071006
+ + add code to curses.priv.h ifdef'd with NCURSES_CHAR_EQ, which
+ changes the CharEq() macro to an inline function to allow comparing
+ cchar_t struct's without comparing gaps in a possibly unpacked
+ memory layout (report by Miroslav Lichvar).
+
+20070929
+ + add new functions to lib_trace.c to setup mutex's for the _tracef()
+ calls within the ncurses library.
+ + for the reentrant model, move _nc_tputs_trace and _nc_outchars into
+ the SCREEN.
+ + start modifying test/worm.c to provide threading demo (incomplete).
+ + separated ifdef's for some BSD-related symbols in tset.c, to make
+ it compile on LynxOS (report by Greg Gemmer).
+20070915
+ + modify Ada95/gen/Makefile to use shlib script, to simplify building
+ shared-library configuration on platforms lacking rpath support.
+ + build-fix for Ada95/src/Makefile to reflect changed dependency for
+ the terminal-interface-curses-aux.adb file which is now generated.
+ + restructuring test/worm.c, for use_window() example.
+
20070908
+ add use_window() and use_screen() functions, to develop into support
for threaded library (incomplete).
