Changes through 1.9.9e did not credit all contributions; it is not possible to add this information. +20120407 + + fix an inconsistency between tic/infocmp "-x" option; tic omits all + non-standard capabilities, while infocmp was ignoring only the user + definable capabilities. + + improve special case in tic parsing of description to allow it to be + followed by terminfo capabilities. Previously the description had to + be the last field on an input line to allow tic to distinguish + between termcap and terminfo format while still allowing commas to be + embedded in the description. + + correct variable name in gen_edit.sh which broke configurability of + the --with-xterm-kbs option. + + revert 2011-07-16 change to "linux" alias, return to "linux2.2" -TD + + further amend 20110910 change, providing for configure-script + override of the "linux" terminfo entry to install and changing the + default for that to "linux2.2" (Debian #665959). + +20120331 + + update Ada95/configure to use CF_DISABLE_ECHO (cf: 20120317). + + correct order of use-clauses in st-256color -TD + + modify configure script to look for gnatgcc if the Ada95 binding + is built, in preference to the default gcc/cc (suggested by + Nicolas Boulenguez). + + modify configure script to ensure that the same -On option used for + the C compiler in CFLAGS is used for ADAFLAGS rather than simply + using -O3 (suggested by Nicolas Boulenguez) + +20120324 + + amend an old fix so that next_char() exits properly for empty files, + e.g., from reading /dev/null (cf: 20080804). + + modify tic so that it can read from the standard input, or from + a character device. Because tic uses seek's, this requires writing + the data to a temporary file first (prompted by remark by Sven + Joachim) (cf: 20000923). + +20120317 + + correct a check made in lib_napms.c, so that terminfo applications + can again use napms() (cf: 20110604). + + add a note in tic.h regarding required casts for ABSENT_BOOLEAN + (cf: 20040327). + + correct scripting for --disable-echo option in test/configure. + + amend check for missing c++ compiler to work when no error is + reported, and no variables set (cf: 20021206). + + add/use configure macro CF_DISABLE_ECHO. + +20120310 + + fix some strict compiler warnings for abi6 and 64-bits. + + use begin_va_copy/end_va_copy macros in lib_printw.c (cf: 20120303). + + improve a limit-check in infocmp.c (Werner Fink): + +20120303 + + minor tidying of terminfo.tail, clarify reason for limitation + regarding mapping of \0 to \200 + + minor improvement to _nc_copy_termtype(), using memcpy to replace + loops. + + fix no-leaks checking in test/demo_termcap.c to account for multiple + calls to setupterm(). + + modified the libgpm change to show previous load as a problem in the + debug-trace. + > merge some patches from OpenSUSE rpm (Werner Fink): + + ncurses-5.7-printw.dif, fixes for varargs handling in lib_printw.c + + ncurses-5.7-gpm.dif, do not dlopen libgpm if already loaded by + runtime linker + + ncurses-5.6-fallback.dif, do not free arrays and strings from static + fallback entries + 20120228 + fix breakage in tic/infocmp from 20120225 (report by Werner Fink).
