Changes through 1.9.9e did not credit all contributions; it is not possible to add this information. +20151212 + + improve CF_XOPEN_CURSES macro used in test/configure, to define as + needed NCURSES_WIDECHAR for platforms where _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED + does not work. Also modified the test program to ensure that if + building with ncurses, that the cchar_t type is checked, since that + normally is since 20111030 ifdef'd depending on this test. + + improve 20121222 workaround for broken acs, letting Solaris "work" + in spite of its m.isconfigured wcwidth which marks all of the line + drawing characters as double-width. + +20151205 + + update form_cursor.3x, form_post.3x, menu_attributes.3x to list + function names in NAME section (patch by Jason McIntyre). + + minor fixes to manpage NAME/SYNOPSIS sections to consistently use + rule that either all functions which are prototyped in SYNOPSIS are + listed in the NAME section, or the manual-page name is the sole item + listed in the NAME section. The latter is used to reduce clutter, + e.g., for the top-level library manual pages as well as for certain + feature-pages such as SP-funcs and threading (prompted by patches by + Jason McIntyre). + +20151128 + + add option to preserve leading whitespace in form fields (patch by + Leon Winter). + + add missing assignment in lib_getch.c to make notimeout() work + (Debian #805618). + + add 't' toggle for notimeout() function in test/ncurses.c a/A screens + + add viewdata terminal description (Alexandre Montaron). + + fix a case in tic/infocmp for formatting capabilities where a + backslash at the end of a string was mishandled. + + fix some typos in curs_inopts.3x (Benno Schulenberg). + +20151121 + + fix some inconsistencies in the pccon* entries -TD + + add bold to pccon+sgr+acs and pccon-base (Tati Chevron). + + add keys f12-f124 to pccon+keys (Tati Chevron). + + add test/test_sgr.c program to exercise all combinations of sgr. + +20151107 + + modify tset's assignment to TERM in its output to reflect the name by + which the terminal description is found, rather than the primary + name. That was an unnecessary part from the initial conversion of + tset from termcap to terminfo. The termcap program in 4.3BSD did + this to avoid using the short 2-character name (report by Rich + Burridge). + + minor fix to configure script to ensure that rules for resulting.map + are only generated when needed (cf: 20151101). + + modify configure script to handle the case where tic-library is + renamed, but the --with-debug option is used by itself without + normal or shared libraries (prompted by comment in Debian #803482). + +20151101 + + amend change for pkg-config which allows build of pc-files when no + valid pkg-config library directory was configured to suppress the + actual install if it is not overridden to a valid directory at + install time (cf: 20150822). + + modify editing script which generates resulting.map to work with the + clang configuration on recent FreeBSD, which gives an error on an + empty "local" section. + + fix a spurious "(Part)" message in test/ncurses.c b/B tests due + to incorrect attribute-masking. + +20151024 + + modify MKexpanded.c to update the expansion of a temporary filename + to "expanded.c", for use in trace statements. + + modify layout of b/B tests in test/ncurses.c to allow for additional + annotation on the right margin; some terminals with partial support + did not display well. + + fix typo in curs_attr.3x (patch by Sven Joachim). + + fix typo in INSTALL (patch by Tomas Cech). + + improve configure check for setting WILDCARD_SYMS variable; on ppc64 + the variable is in the Data section rather than Text (patch by Michel + Normand, Novell #946048). + + using configure option "--without-fallbacks" incorrectly caused + FALLBACK_LIST to be set to "no" (patch by Tomas Cech). + + updated minitel entries to fix kel problem with emacs, and add + minitel1b-nb (Alexandre Montaron). + + reviewed/updated nsterm entry Terminal.app in OSX -TD + + replace some dead URLs in comments with equivalents from the + Internet Archive -TD + + update config.guess, config.sub from + http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/config.git + 20151017 + modify ncurses/Makefile.in to sort keys.list in POSIX locale (Debian #801864, patch by Esa Peuha).
