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.
+20180825
+ + add a section to tput manual page clarifying how it determines the
+ terminal size (prompted by discussion with Grant Jenks).
+ + add "--disable-relink" to rpm test-packages, for consistency with the
+ deb test-packages.
+ + split spec-file into ncurses6.spec and ncursest6.spec to work around
+ toolset breakage in Fedora 28.
+ + drop mention of "--disable-touching", which was not in the final
+ 20180818 updates.
+
+20180818
+ + build-fix for PDCurses with ncurses-examples.
+ + improved CF_CC_ENV_FLAGS.
+ + modify configure scripts to reduce relinking/ranlib during library
+ install (Debian #903790):
+ + use "install -p" when available, to avoid need for ranlib of
+ static libraries.
+ + modify scripts which use "--disable-relink" to add a 1-second
+ sleep to work around tools which use whole-second timestamps, e.g.,
+ in utime() rather than the actual file system resolution.
+
+20180804
+ + improve logic for clear with E3 extension, in case the terminal
+ scrolls content onto its saved-lines before actually clearing
+ the display, by clearing the saved-lines after clearing the
+ display (report/patch by Nicholas Marriott).
+
+20180728
+ + improve documentation regarding feature-test macros in curses.h
+ + improve documentation regarding the virtual and physical screens.
+ + formatting fixes for manpages, regenerate man-html documentation.

+ + add enum, regex examples to test/demo_forms
+ + add configure check for pcre-posix library to help with MinGW port.
+
+20180707
+ + build-fixes for gcc8.
+ + correct order of WINDOW._ttytype versus WINDOW._windowlist in
+ report_offsets.
+ + fix a case where tiparm could return null if the format-string was
+ empty (Debian #902630).
+
+20180630
+ + add acsc string to vi200 (Nibby Nebbulous)
+ add right/down-arrow to vi200's acsc -TD
+ + add "x" to tput's getopt string so that "tput -x clear" works
+ (Nicholas Marriott).
+ + minor fixes prompted by anonymous report on stack overflow:
+ + correct order of checks in _nc_get_locale(), for systems lacking
+ locale support.
+ + add "#error" in a few places to flag unsupported configurations
+
20180623
+ use _WIN32/_WIN64 in preference to __MINGW32__/__MINGW64__ symbols
to simplify building with MSVC, since the former are defined in both
