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.
+20090725
+ + continue integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer (incomplete).
+
+20090718
+ + fix a null-pointer check in _nc_format_slks() in lib_slk.c, from
+ 20070704 changes.
+ + modify _nc_find_type_entry() to use hashing.
+ + make CCHARW_MAX value configurable, noting that changing this would
+ change the size of cchar_t, and would be ABI-incompatible.
+ + modify test-programs, e.g,. test/view.c, to address subtle
+ differences between Tru64/Solaris and HPUX/AIX getcchar() return
+ values.
+ + modify length returned by getcchar() to count the trailing null
+ which is documented in X/Open (cf: 20020427).
+ + fixes for test programs to build/work on HPUX and AIX, etc.
+
+20090711
+ + improve performance of tigetstr, etc., by using hashing code from tic.
+ + minor fixes for memory-leak checking.
+ + add test/demo_terminfo, for comparison with demo_termcap
+
+20090704
+ + remove wide-character checks from unctrl() (patch by Clemens Ladisch).
+ + revise wadd_wch() and wecho_wchar() to eliminate dependency on
+ unctrl().
+ + continue integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer (incomplete).
+
+20090627
+ + update llib-lncurses[wt] to use sp-funcs.
+ + various code-fixes to build/work with --disable-macros configure
+ option.
+ + add several new files from Juergen Pfeifer which will be used when
+ integration of "sp-funcs" is complete. This includes a port to
+ MinGW.
+
+20090613
+ + move definition for NCURSES_WRAPPED_VAR back to ncurses_dll.h, to
+ make includes of term.h without curses.h work (report by "Nix").

+
+20090607

+
+20090606
+ + continue integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer (incomplete).

+20090530
+ + fix an infinite recursion when adding a legacy-coding 8-bit value
+ using insch() (report by Clemens Ladisch).
+ + free home-terminfo string in del_curterm() (patch by Dan Weber).
+ + continue integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer (incomplete).
+
+20090523
+ + continue integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer (incomplete).
+
+20090516
+ + work around antique BSD game's manipulation of stdscr, etc., versus
+ SCREEN's copy of the pointer (Debian #528411).
+ + add a cast to wattrset macro to avoid compiler warning when comparing
+ its result against ERR (adapted from patch by Matt Kraii, Debian
+ #528374).
+
+20090510
+ + continue integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer (incomplete).

+20090418
+ + continue integrating "sp-funcs" by Juergen Pfeifer (incomplete).
+
+20090411
