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.
+20141011
+ + add experimental support for xterm's 1005 mouse mode, to use in a
+ demonstration of its limitations.
+ + add experimental support for "%u" format to terminfo.
+ + modify test/ncurses.c to also show position reports in 'a' test.
+ + minor formatting fixes to _nc_trace_mmask_t, make this function
+ exported to help with debugging mouse changes.
+ + improve behavior of wheel-mice for xterm protocol, noting that there
+ are only button-presses for buttons "4" and "5", so there is no need
+ to wait to combine events into double-clicks (report/analysis by
+ Greg Field).
+ + provide examples xterm-1005 and xterm-1006 terminfo entries -TD
+ + implement decoder for xterm SGR 1006 mouse mode.
+
+20140927
+ + implement curs_set in win_driver.c
+ + implement flash in win_driver.c
+ + fix an infinite loop in win_driver.c if the command-window loses
+ focus.
+ + improve the non-buffered mode, i.e., NCURSES_CONSOLE2, of
+ win_driver.c by temporarily changing the buffer-size to match the
+ window-size to eliminate the scrollback. Also enforce a minimum
+ screen-size of 24x80 in the non-buffered mode.
+ + modify generated misc/Makefile to suppress install.data from the
+ dependencies if the --disable-db-install option is used, compensating
+ for the top-level makefile changes used to add ncurses*-config in the
+ 20140920 changes (report by Steven Honeyman).
+
20140920
+ add ncurses*-config to bin-directory of sample package-scripts.
+ add check to ensure that getopt is available; this is a problem in
+ add test/dots_curses.c, for comparison with the low-level examples.
20140614
- + fix dereference before null check found by Coverity in tic.c
+ + fix dereference before null check found by Coverity in tic.c
(cf: 20140524).
+ fix sign-extension bug in read_entry.c which prevented "toe" from
reading empty "screen+italics" entry.
