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.

the --with-xterm-kbs option.
+ revert 2011-07-16 change to \"linux\" alias, return to \"linux2.2\" -TD

using -O3 (suggested by Nicolas Boulenguez)
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120324
+ 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).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120317
+ 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.

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120225
+ modify configure script to allow creating dll\'s for MinGW when
cross-compiling.
+ add --enable-string-hacks option to control whether strlcat and

reduce bogus warnings with OpenBSD builds.
+ build-fix for OpenBSD 4.9 to supply consistent intptr_t declaration
(cf:20111231)

* several improvements to test/movewindow.c (prompted by discussion on
Linux Mint forum):
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20120107

* various improvments for MinGW (Juergen Pfeifer):
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111231

* modify toe\'s report when -a and -s options are combined, to add
a column showing which entries belong to a given database.

* add -s option to toe, to sort its output.

* modify progs/toe.c, simplifying use of db-iterator results to use
caching improvements from 20111001 and 20111126.

* correct generation of pc-files when ticlib or termlib options are
given to rename the corresponding tic- or tinfo-libraries (report
by Sven Joachim).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111224

* document a portability issue with tput, i.e., that scripts which work
with ncurses may fail in other implementations that do no parameter
analysis.

* add putty-sco entry -TD
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111217

* review/fix places in manpages where --program-prefix configure option
was not being used.

* add -D option to infocmp, to show the database locations that it
could use.

* fix build for the special case where term-driver, ticlib and termlib
are all enabled. The terminal driver depends on a few features in
the base ncurses library, so tic\'s dependencies include both ncurses
and termlib.

* fix build work for term-driver when --enable-wgetch-events option is
enabled.

* use types to fix some questionable casts to void
*.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111210

* modify configure script to check if thread library provides
pthread_mutexattr_settype(), e.g., not provided by Solaris 2.6

* modify configure script to suppress check to define _XOPEN_SOURCE
for IRIX64, since its header files have a conflict versus
_SGI_SOURCE.

* modify configure script to add \".pc\" files for tic- and
tinfo-libraries, which were omitted in recent change (cf: 20111126).

* fix inconsistent checks on $PKG_CONFIG variable in configure script.

Tue Dec 20 13:00:00 2011 cooloAATTsuse.com
- remove call to suse_update_config (very old work around)

Mon Dec 5 13:00:00 2011 wernerAATTsuse.de
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111203

* modify configure-check for etip.h dependencies, supplying a temporary
copy of ncurses_dll.h since it is a generated file (prompted by
Debian #646977).

* modify CF_CPP_PARAM_INIT \"main\" function to work with current C++.

Mon Nov 28 13:00:00 2011 wernerAATTsuse.de
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111126

* correct database iterator\'s check for duplicate entries
(cf: 20111001).

* modify database iterator to ignore $TERMCAP when it is not an
absolute pathname.

* add -D option to tic, to show the database locations that it could
use.

* improve description of database locations in tic manpage.

* modify the configure script to generate a list of the \".pc\" files to
generate, rather than deriving the list from the libraries which have
been built (patch by Mike Frysinger).

* use AC_CHECK_TOOLS in preference to AC_PATH_PROGS when searching for
ncurses
*-config, e.g., in Ada95/configure and test/configure (adapted
from patch by Mike Frysinger).

Thu Nov 24 13:00:00 2011 wernerAATTsuse.de
- Avoid linker script libterminfo.so as bash configure can not
handle this

* remove obsolete/conflicting fallback definition for _POSIX_SOURCE
from curses.priv.h, fixing a regression with IRIX64 and Tru64
(cf: 20110416)

* modify _nc_tic_dir() to ensure that its return-value is nonnull,
i.e., the database iterator was not initialized. This case is needed
to when tic is translating to termcap, rather than loading the
database (cf: 20111001).

- Update to tack 1.07-20110626
- Enlarge hash size for run time linker
- Enforce bind references to global function symbols to the
definition within libncurses and libtinfo

Thu Nov 17 13:00:00 2011 wernerAATTsuse.de
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111112

* add pccon entries for OpenBSD console (Alexei Malinin).

* build-fix for OpenBSD 4.9 with gcc 4.2.1, setting _XOPEN_SOURCE to
600 to work around inconsistent ifdef\'ing of wcstof between C and
C++ header files.

* modify capconvert script to accept more than exact match on \"xterm\",
e.g., the \"xterm-
*\" variants, to exclude from the conversion (patch
by Robert Millan).

* fix a typo misc/Makefile.in, used in uninstalling pc-files.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111030

* modify make_db_path() to allow creating \"terminfo.db\" in the same
directory as an existing \"terminfo\" directory. This fixes a case
where switching between hashed/filesystem databases would cause the
new hashed database to be installed in the next best location -
root\'s home directory.

* add variable cf_cv_prog_gnat_correct to those passed to
config.status, fixing a problem with Ada95 builds (cf: 20111022).

* change feature test from _XPG5 to _XOPEN_SOURCE in two places, to
accommodate broken implementations for _XPG6.

* eliminate usage of NULL symbol from etip.h, to reduce header
interdependencies.

* add configure check to decide when to add _XOPEN_SOURCE define to
compiler options, i.e., for Solaris 10 and later (cf: 20100403).
This is a workaround for gcc 4.6, which fails to build the c++
binding if that symbol is defined by the application, due to
incorrectly combining the corresponding feature test macros
(report by Peter Kruse).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111022

* correct logic for discarding mouse events, retaining the partial
events used to build up click, double-click, etc, until needed
(cf: 20110917).

* fix configure script to avoid creating unused Ada95 makefile when
gnat does not work.

* cleanup width-related gcc 3.4.3 warnings for 64-bit platform, for the
internal functions of libncurses. The external interface of courses
uses bool, which still produces these warnings.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111015

* improve description of --disable-tic-depends option to make it
clear that it may be useful whether or not the --with-termlib
option is also given (report by Sven Joachim).

* amend termcap equivalent for set_pglen_inch to use the X/Open
\"YI\" rather than the obsolete Solaris 2.5 \"sL\" (cf: 990109).

* improve manpage for tgetent differences from termcap library.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111008

* moved static data from db_iterator.c to lib_data.c

* modify db_iterator.c for memory-leak checking, fix one leak.

* modify misc/gen-pkgconfig.in to use Requires.private for the parts
of ncurses rather than Requires, as well as Libs.private for the
other library dependencies (prompted by Debian #644728).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20111001

* modify tic \"-K\" option to only set the strict-flag rather than force
source-output. That allows the same flag to control the parser for
input and output of termcap source.

* modify _nc_getent() to ignore backslash at the end of a comment line,
making it consistent with ncurses\' parser.

* 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.

* improve performance of the database iterator by caching search-list.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110925

* add a missing \"else\" in changes to _nc_read_tic_entry().
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110924

* modify _nc_read_tic_entry() so that hashed-database is checked before
filesystem.

* updated CF_CURSES_LIBS check in test/configure script.

* modify configure script and makefiles to split TIC_ARGS and
TINFO_ARGS into pieces corresponding to LDFLAGS and LIBS variables,
to help separate searches for tic- and tinfo-libraries (patch by Nick
Alcock aka \"Nix\").

* build-fix for lib_mouse.c changes (ch: 20110917).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110917

* fix compiler warning for clang 2.9

* improve merging of mouse events (integrated patch by Damien
Guibouret).

* correct mask-check used in lib_mouse for wheel mouse buttons 4/5
(patch by Damien Guibouret).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110910

* modify misc/gen_edit.sh to select a \"linux\" entry which works with
the current kernel rather than assuming it is always \"linux3.0\"
(cf: 20110716).

* revert a change to getmouse() which had the undesirable side-effect
of suppressing button-release events (report by Damien Guibouret,
cf: 20100102).

* add xterm+kbs fragment from xterm #272 -TD

* add configure option --with-pkg-config-libdir to provide control over
the actual directory into which pc-files are installed, do not use
the pkg-config environment variables (discussion with Frederic L W
Meunier).

* add link to mailing-list archive in announce.html.in, as done in
FAQ (prompted by question by Andrius Bentkus).

* improve manpage install by adjusting the \"#include\" examples to
show the ncurses-subdirectory used when --disable-overwrite option
is used.

* install an alias for \"curses\" to the ncurses manpage, tied to the
- -with-curses-h configure option (suggested by Reuben Thomas).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110903

* propagate error-returns from wresize, i.e., the internal
increase_size and decrease_size functions through resize_term (report
by Tim van der Molen, cf: 20020713).

* fix typo in tset manpage (patch by Sven Joachim).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110820

* add a check to ensure that termcap files which might have \"^?\" do
not use the terminfo interpretation as \"\\177\".

* minor cleanup of X-terminal emulator section of terminfo.src -TD

* add terminator entry -TD

* add simpleterm entry -TD

* improve wattr_get macros by ensuring that if the window pointer is
null, then the attribute and color values returned will be zero
(cf: 20110528).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110813

* 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

* improve rpath fix from 20110730 by ensuring that the new $RPATH_LIST
variable is defined in the makefiles which use it.

* build-fix for DragonFlyBSD\'s pkgsrc in test/configure script.

* build-fixes for NetBSD 5.1 with termcap support enabled.

* corrected k9 in dg460-ansi, add other features based on manuals -TD

* improve trimming of whitespace at the end of terminfo/termcap output
from tic/infocmp.

* when writing termcap source, ensure that colons in the description
field are translated to a non-delimiter, i.e., \"=\".

* add \"-0\" option to tic/infocmp, to make the termcap/terminfo source
use a single line.

* add a null-pointer check when handling the $CC variable.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110730

* modify configure script and makefiles in c++ and progs to allow the
directory used for rpath option to be overridden, e.g., to work
around updates to the variables used by tic during an install.

* add -K option to tic/infocmp, to provide stricter BSD-compatibility
for termcap output.

* add _nc_strict_bsd variable in tic library which controls the
\"strict\" BSD termcap compatibility from 20110723, plus these
features:

* allow escapes such as \"\\8\" and \"\\9\" when reading termcap

* disallow \"\\a\", \"\\e\", \"\\l\", \"\\s\" and \"\\:\" escapes when reading
termcap files, passing through \"a\", \"e\", etc.

* expand \"\\:\" as \"\\072\" on output.

* modify _nc_get_token() to reset the token\'s string value in case
there is a string-typed token lacking the \"=\" marker.

* fix a few memory leaks in _nc_tgetent.

* fix a few places where reading from a termcap file could refer to
freed memory.

* add an overflow check when converting terminfo/termcap numeric
values, since terminfo stores those in a short, and they must be
positive.

* correct internal variables used for translating to termcap \"%>\"
feature, and translating from termcap %B to terminfo, needed by
tctest (cf: 19991211).

* amend a minor fix to acsc when loading a termcap file to separate it

getcap is used, to reduce interactive warning messages.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110723

* add a check in start_color() to limit color-pairs to 256 when
extended colors are not supported (patch by David Benjamin).

* modify setcchar to omit no-longer-needed OR\'ing of color pair in
the SetAttr() macro (patch by David Benjamin).

* add kich1 to sun terminfo entry (Yuri Pankov)

* use bold rather than reverse for smso in sun-color terminfo entry
(Yuri Pankov).

* improve generation of termcap using tic/infocmp -C option, e.g.,
to correspond with 4.2BSD (prompted by discussion with Yuri Pankov
regarding Schilling\'s test program):

* translate %02 and %03 to %2 and %3 respectively.

* suppress string capabilities which use %s, not supported by tgoto

at gentoo prefix repository (patch by Michael Haubenwallner).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110626

* move include of nc_termios.h out of term_entry.h, since the latter
is installed, e.g., for tack while the former is not (report by
Sven Joachim).
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110625

* improve cleanup() function in lib_tstp.c, using _exit() rather than
exit() and checking for SIGTERM rather than SIGQUIT (prompted by
comments forwarded by Nicholas Marriott).

not been initialized and when an application passes null pointers
to the library. Added checks to cover this (prompted by Redhat
[#707344]).

* modify MKlib_gen.sh to make its main() function call each function

- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110521

* fix warnings from clang 2.7 \"--analyze\"
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110514

help work around weak-symbol issues.
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110507

* update discussion of MKfallback.sh script in INSTALL; normally the
script is used automatically via the configured makefiles. However
there are still occasions when it might be used directly by packagers
(report by Gunter Schaffler).

* modify misc/ncurses-config.in to omit the \"-L\" option from the
\"--libs\" output if the library directory is /usr/lib.

undoes one of the fixes from 20110319, which added an \"Unused\" member
to representation clauses, replacing that with pragmas to suppress
warnings about unused bits (patch by Nicolas Boulenguez):
- Add ncurses patch 5.9.20110423

* add check in test/configure for use_window, use_screen.

* add configure-checks for getopt\'s variables, which may be declared
as different types on some Unix systems.

characters, i.e., control characters are handled properly with the
wide-character configuration.

* correct a comparison in wins_nwstr() (Redhat #661506).

* correct help-messages in some of the test-programs, which still

- Update to test version 5.7.20100109

* add tiparm(), based on review of X/Open Curses Issue 7.

* minor improvement to tic\'s checking of similar SGR\'s to allow for the
most common case of SGR 0.

* modify getmouse() to act as its documentation implied, returning on
each call the preceding event until none are left. When no more
events remain, it will return ERR.

* add bterm terminfo entry, based on bogl 0.1.18 -TD

* minor fix to rxvt+pcfkeys terminfo entry -TD

* update minix terminfo entry -TD

* add bw (auto-left-margin) to nsterm
* entries (Benjamin Sittler)

* correct transfer of multicolumn characters in multirow
field_buffer(), which stopped at the end of the first row due to
filling of unused entries in a cchar_t array with nulls.

* updated nsterm
* entries (Benjamin Sittler, Emanuele Giaquinta)

* modify _nc_viscbuf2() and _tracecchar_t2() to show wide-character nulls.

* fix case where progs/tput is used while sp-funcs is configure; this
requires save/restore of out-character function from _nc_prescreen
rather than the SCREEN structure (report by Charles Wilson).

* limit hashing for termcap-names to 2-characters (Ubuntu #481740).

* fix a regression in _nc_ripoffline which made test/ncurses.c not show
soft-keys, broken in 20090927 merging.

* update nsterm entries (patch by Benjamin C W Sittler, prompted by
discussion with Fabian Groffen in GenToo #206201).

* add test/xterm-256color.dat

* modify _nc_wgetch() to check for a -1 in the fifo, e.g., after a
SIGWINCH, and discard that value, to avoid confusing application
(patch by Eygene Ryabinkin, FreeBSD bin/136223).

* modify handling of $PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR to use only the first item in
a possibly colon-separated list (Debian #550716).

* fix a sign-extension bug in unget_wch() (report by Mike Gran).

* remove unnecessary kcan assignment to ^C from putty (Sven Joachim)

* add ccc and initc capabilities to xterm-16color -TD

* add linux-16color

* correct initc capability of linux-c-nc end-of-range

* completed integrating \"sp-funcs\" by Juergen Pfeifer in ncurses
library (some work remains for forms library).

* fix typo s/is_timeout/is_notimeout/ which made \"man is_notimeout\" not work.

* add null-pointer checks to other opaque-functions.

* add is_pad() and is_subwin() functions for opaque access to WINDOW
(discussion with Mark Dickinson).

* correct merge to lib_newterm.c, which broke when sp-funcs was enabled.

* build-fix for building outside source-tree (report by Sven Joachim).

* fix Debian lintian warning for man/tabs.1 by making section number
agree with file-suffix (report by Sven Joachim).

* workaround for bug in g++ 4.1-4.4 warnings for wattrset() macro on
amd64 (Debian #542031).

* modify wgetch() to ensure it checks SIGWINCH when it gets an error
in non-blocking mode (patch by Clemens Ladisch).

* fix configure script option --with-database, which was coded as an
enable-type switch.

* modify lib_addch.c to compensate for removal of wide-character test
from unctrl() in 20090704 (Debian #539735).

* modify _nc_find_type_entry() to use hashing.

* modify length returned by getcchar() to count the trailing null
which is documented in X/Open (cf: 20020427).

* improve performance of tigetstr, etc., by using hashing code from tic.

* minor fixes for memory-leak checking.

* remove wide-character checks from unctrl() (patch by Clemens Ladisch).

* revise wadd_wch() and wecho_wchar() to eliminate dependency on unctrl().

* update llib-lncurses[wt] to use sp-funcs.

* move definition for NCURSES_WRAPPED_VAR back to ncurses_dll.h, to
make includes of term.h without curses.h work (report by \"Nix\").

* fix a regression in lib_tputs.c, from ongoing merges.

* fix an infinite recursion when adding a legacy-coding 8-bit value
using insch() (report by Clemens Ladisch).

* work around antique BSD game\'s manipulation of stdscr, etc., versus
SCREEN\'s copy of the pointer (Debian #528411).

* add a cast to wattrset macro to avoid compiler warning when comparing
its result against ERR (adapted from patch by Matt Kraii, Debian #528374).

* add vwmterm terminfo entry (patch by Bryan Christ).

* build fix for _nc_free_and_exit() change in 20090418 (report by Christian Ebert).

* extend ansi.sys pfkey capability from kf1-kf10 to kf1-kf48, moving
function key definitions from emx-base for consistency -TD

* improve install-rules for pc-files (patch by Miroslav Lichvar).

* make it work with $DESTDIR

* modify init_pair() to allow caller to create extra color pairs beyond
the color_pairs limit, which use default colors (request by Emanuele Giaquinta).

* fix typo \"==\" where \"=\" is needed in ncurses-config.in and
gen-pkgconfig.in files (Debian #512161).

* add screen.Eterm terminfo entry (GenToo #124887) -TD

* add case for FreeMINT to configure macro CF_XOPEN_SOURCE (patch from
GenToo #250454).

* add check in mouse-driver to disable connection if GPM returns a
zero, indicating that the connection is closed (Debian #506717,
adapted from patch by Samuel Thibault).

* turn on _XOPEN_CURSES definition in curses.h

* add eterm-color entry (report by Vincent Lefevre) -TD

* add a manpage to discuss memory leaks.

* add teraterm4.59 terminfo entry, use that as primary teraterm entry, rename
original to teraterm2.3 -TD

* update \"gnome\" terminfo to 2.22.3 -TD

* update \"konsole\" terminfo to 1.6.6, needs today\'s fix for tic -TD

* add \"aterm\" terminfo -TD

* add \"linux2.6.26\" terminfo -TD

* add logic to tic for cancelling strings in user-defined capabilities,
overlooked til now.

* add configure option --disable-tic-depends to make explicit whether
tic library depends on ncurses/ncursesw library, amends change from
20080823 (prompted by Debian #501421).

* add environment variable NCURSES_GPM_TERMS to allow override to use
GPM on terminals other than \"linux\", etc.

* disable GPM mouse support when $TERM does not happen to contain
\"linux\", since Gpm_Open() no longer limits its assertion to terminals
that it might handle, e.g., within \"screen\" in xterm.

* fix bug in mouse code for GPM from 20080920 changes (reported in
Debian #500103, also Miroslav Lichvar).

* correct check for notimeout() in wgetch() (report on linux.redhat
newsgroup by FurtiveBertie).

* corrected fix for --enable-weak-symbols (report by Frederic L W Meunier).

* add configure check for awk programs unable to handle big-strings,
use that to improve the default for --enable-big-strings option.

* makefile-fixes for --enable-weak-symbols (report by Frederic L W Meunier).

* consistently use NCURSES_BOOL in lib_gen.c

* filter #line\'s from lib_gen.c

* use pthread_mutexattr_init() for initializing pthread_mutexattr_t,
makes threaded code work on HPUX 11.23

* fix a bug in demo_menus in freeing menus (cf: 20080804).

* modify configure script for the case where tic library is used (and
possibly renamed) to remove its dependency upon ncurses/ncursew
library (patch by Dr Werner Fink).

* add Eterm-256color, Eterm-88color and rxvt-88color (prompted by
Debian #495815) -TD

* add configure option --enable-weak-symbols to turn on new feature.

* add configure-check for availability of weak symbols.

* modify linkage with pthread library to use weak symbols so that
applications not linked to that library will not use the mutexes,
etc. This relies on gcc, and may be platform-specific (patch by Dr Werner Fink).

* add note to INSTALL to document limitation of renaming of tic library
using the --with-ticlib configure option (report by Dr Werner Fink).

* document (in manpage) why tputs does not detect I/O errors (prompted
