None of the Unix-branded + implementations do this, as noted in manpage (cf: 20040228). + +20080203 + + modify _nc_setupscreen() to set the legacy-coding value the same + for both narrow/wide models. It had been set only for wide model, + but is needed to make unctrl() work with locale in the narrow model. + + improve waddch() and winsch() handling of EILSEQ from mbrtowc() by + using unctrl() to display illegal bytes rather than trying to append + further bytes to make up a valid sequence (reported by Andrey A + Chernov). + + modify unctrl() to check codes in 128-255 range versus isprint(). + If they are not printable, and locale was set, use a "M-" or "~" + sequence. + +20080126 + + improve threading in test/worm.c (wrap refresh calls, and KEY_RESIZE + handling).
