The test programs such as picsmap, ncurses were created or updated during 2017 to use this feature. + the new format is written by the wide-character configuration of tic when it finds a numeric capability larger than 32767. + other applications such as infocmp built with the wide-character ncurses library work as expected. + applications built with the \"narrow\" (8-bit) configuration will read the new format, but will limit those extended values to 32767. + in either wide/narrow configuration, the structure defined in term.h still uses signed 16-bit values. + because it is incompatible with the legacy (mid-1980s) binary format, a new magic value is provided for the \"file\" program. + the term.5 manual page is updated to describe this new format. + the limit on file-size for compiled terminfo is increased in the wide-character configuration to 32768.- Add ncurses patch 20180120 + build-fix in picsmap.c for stdint.h existence. + add --disable-stripping option to configure scripts. + modify ncurses-examples to install test-scripts in the data directory. + work around tool-breakage in Debian 9 and later by invoking gprconfig to specify the C compiler to be used by gnatmake, and conditionally suppressing Library_Options line for static libraries. + bump the compat level for test-packages to 7, i.e., Debian 5.- Add tack patch 1.08-20170818
* Tue Jan 09 2018 wernerAATTsuse.de- Add ncurses patch 20180106 + fixes for writing extended color pairs in putwin. + modify test/savescreen.c to add test patterns that exercise 88-, 256-, etc., colors. + modify configure option --with-build-cc, adding clang, c89 and c99 as possible default values. + modify ncurses-examples configure script to use pkg-config for the extra form/menu/panel libraries, to be more consistent with the handling of the curses/ncurses library. + modify test-packages for mingw to supply \"pc\" files. + modify gen-pkgconfig.in to list -lpthread as a private library when configured to access it via weak symbols. + simplify gen-pkgconfig.in, adding -ltinfo without the special linker checks because some versions of the linker simply hard-code the behavior. + update URLs for ncurses website to use https. + modify CF_CURSES_LIBS to fill in $cf_nculib_root in case the ncurses-examples are built with a system ncurses that lacks the standard \"curses\" symbolic link, as done by SuSE. The symbol is needed to make a followup check for the pthread library work, and would be set properly using the options \"--with-screen\", etc. + generate misc/
*.pc with \"all\" rule, as done for \"sources\" rule (report by Jeffrey Walton).
* Mon Jan 08 2018 wernerAATTsuse.de- Add ncurses patch 20171230 + build-fix for ncurses-examples with Fedora27, adding check for reset_color_pairs() -- not yet in Fedora\'s package. + consistently add $CFLAGS to $MK_SHARED_LIB symbol in configure script when the latter happens to use the C compiler rather than directly using the loader (report by Jeffrey Walton). + set ABI for upcoming 6.1 release in \"
*.map\" files. While there are some remaining internals to apply, no ABI-related changes are anticipated. + add configure --with-config-suffix option to work around filename conflict with Redhat packages versus test-packages.- Add ncurses patch 20171223 + modify ncurses-examples to quiet const-warnings when building with PDCurses. + modify toe to not exit if unable to read a terminal description, e.g., if there is a permission problem. + minor fix for progs/toe.c, using _nc_free_termtype2. + assign 0 to pointer in _nc_tgetent_leak() after freeing it. Also avoid reusing pointer from previous successful call to tgetent if the latest call is unsuccessful (patch by Michael Schroeder, OpenSuSE #1070450). + minor fix for test/tracemunch, initialize $awaiting variable.
* Fri Dec 22 2017 wernerAATTsuse.de- Disable memory leak checking (boo#1070450)
* Mon Dec 18 2017 wernerAATTsuse.de- Add ncurses patch 20171216 + repair template in test/package/ncurses-examples.spec (cf: 20171111). + improve tic\'s warning about the number of parameters tparm might use for u1-u9 by making a special case for u6. + improve curs_attr.3x discussion of color pairs.
* Mon Dec 11 2017 wernerAATTsuse.de- Add ncurses patch 20171209 + modify misc/ncurses-config.in to make output with --includedir consistent with --cflags, i.e., when --disable-overwrite option was configured the output should show the subdirectory where headers are. + modify MKlib_gen.sh to suppress macros when calling an \"implemented\" function in link_test.c + updated ftp-url used in test-packages, etc. + modify order of -pie/-shared options in configure script in case LDFLAGS uses \"-pie\", working around a defect or limitation in the GNU linker (prompted by patch by Yogesh Prasad, forwarded by Jay Shah). + add entry in man_db.renames for user_caps.5

* Mon Oct 16 2017 wernerAATTsuse.de- Add ncurses patch 20171014 + minor cleanup to test/view.c: + eliminate \"-n\" option by simply reading the whole file. + implement page up/down commands. + add check in tput for init/reset operands to ensure those use a terminal. + improve manual pages which discuss chtype, cchar_t types and the attribute values which can be stored in those types. + correct array-index when parsing \"-T\" command-line option in tabs program. + modify demo_new_pair.c to pass extended pairs to setcchar(). + add test/dots_xcurses.c to illustrate a different approach used for extended colors which can be contrasted with dots_curses.c. + add a check in tic to note when a description uses non-mandatory delays without xon_xoff. This is not an error, but some descriptions for a terminal emulator may use the combination incorrectly.
* Mon Oct 09 2017 wernerAATTsuse.de- Add ncurses patch 20171007 + modify \"-T\" option of clear and tput to call use_tioctl() to obtain the operating system\'s notion of the screensize if possible. + review/repair some exit-codes for tput, making usage-message exit with 2 rather than 1, and a failure to open terminal 4+errno. + amend check in tput, tabs and clear to allow those to use the database-only features in cron if a -T option gives a suitable terminal name (report by Lauri Tirkkonen). + correct an ifdef in test/ncurses.c for systems with soft-keys but not slk_color(). + regenerate man-html documentation.

Normally tack is no longer built in-tree, but a few packagers combine it during the build. If term_entry.h is installed, there is no advantage to in-tree builds. + adjust configure-script to define HAVE_CURSES_DATA_BOOLNAMES symbol needed for tack 1.08 when built in-tree. Rather than relying upon internal \"_nc_\" functions, tack now uses the boolean, number and string capability name-arrays provided by ncurses and SVr4 Unix curses. It still uses term_entry.h for the definitions of the extended capability arrays. + add an overlooked null-pointer check in mvcur changes from 20170722- Modify patch ncurses-5.7-tack.dif and ncurses-6.0.dif to get position independent executables as well

Legacy tack versions supply this file; ongoing tack development has dropped the dependency upon tic-library and new releases will not be affected.
* Tue Jul 18 2017 wernerAATTsuse.de- Fix build by removing workaround in patch ncurses-5.7-tack.dif which was required since patch 20170415 but had become obsolete with patch 20170715

* restore a special-case check for directory needed to make termcap text files load as if they were databases (cf: 20110924).
* modify tic\'s resolution/collision checking to attempt to remove the conflicting alias from the second entry in the pair, which is normally following in the source file. Also improved the warning message to make it simpler to see which alias is the problem.

* add substitution for $RPATH_LIST to misc/ncurses-config.in
* improve performance of tic with hashed-database by caching the database connection, using atexit() to cleanup.
* modify treatment of 2-character aliases at the beginning of termcap entries so they are not counted in use-resolution, since these are guaranteed to be unique. Also ignore these aliases when reporting the primary name of the entry (cf: 20040501)
* double-check gn (generic) flag in terminal descriptions to accommodate old/buggy termcap databases which misused that feature.
* minor fixes to _nc_tgetent(), ensure buffer is initialized even on error-return.- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110807
