Changes through 1.9.9e did not credit all contributions; it is not possible to add this information. +20080223 + + fix a size-difference in _nc_globals which caused hanging of mutex + lock/unlock when termlib was built separately. + +20080216 + + avoid using nanosleep() in threaded configuration since that often + is implemented to suspend the entire process. + +20080209 + + update test programs to build/work with various UNIX curses for + comparisons. This was to reinvestigate statement in X/Open curses + that insnstr and winsnstr perform wrapping. 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). Now it hangs in napms(), no matter whether nanosleep() + or poll() or select() are used on Linux. + 20080119 + fixes to build with --disable-ext-funcs + add manpage for use_window and use_screen.
