ncurses 库 可能有用酒用 没用就算了 我觉得还可以用

	  such as tic are not linked with the upper-level ncurses library
	  (suggested by Stanislav Ievlev).
	+ move version.c from ncurses/base to ncurses/tinfo to allow linking
	  of tic, etc., using libtinfo (suggested by Stanislav Ievlev).

20040103
	+ adjust -D's to build ncursesw on OpenBSD.
	+ modify CF_PROG_EXT to make OS/2 build with EXEEXT.
	+ add pecho_wchar().
	+ remove <wctype.h> include from lib_slk_wset.c which is not needed (or
	  available) on older platforms.

20031227
	+ add -D's to build ncursew on FreeBSD 5.1.
	+ modify shared library configuration for FreeBSD 4.x/5.x to add the
	  soname information (request by Marc Glisse).
	+ modify _nc_read_tic_entry() to not use MAX_ALIAS, but PATH_MAX only
	  for limiting the length of a filename in the terminfo database.
	+ modify termname() to return the terminal name used by setupterm()
	  rather than $TERM, without truncating to 14 characters as documented
	  by X/Open (report by Stanislav Ievlev, cf:  970719).
	+ re-add definition for _BSD_TYPES, lost in merge (cf: 20031206).

20031220
	+ add configure option --with-manpage-format=catonly to address
	  behavior of BSDI, allow install of man+cat files on NetBSD, whose
	  behavior has diverged by requiring both to be present.
	+ remove leading blanks from comment-lines in manlinks.sed script to
	  work with Tru64 4.0d.
	+ add screen.linux terminfo entry (discussion on mutt-users mailing
	  list).

20031213
	+ add a check for tic to flag missing backslashes for termcap
	  continuation lines.  ncurses reads the whole entry, but termcap
	  applications do not.
	+ add configure option "--with-manpage-aliases" extending
	  "--with-manpage-aliases" to provide the option of generating ".so"
	  files rather than symbolic links for manpage aliases.
	+ add bool definition in include/curses.h.in for configurations with no
	  usable C++ compiler (cf: 20030607).
	+ fix pathname of SigAction.h for building with --srcdir (reported by
	  Mike Castle).

20031206
	+ folded ncurses/base/sigaction.c into includes of ncurses/SigAction.h,
	  since that header is used only within ncurses/tty/lib_tstp.c, for
	  non-POSIX systems (discussion with Stanislav Ievlev).
	+ remove obsolete _nc_outstr() function (report by Stanislav Ievlev
	  <[e-mail]>).
	+ add test/background.c and test/color_set.c
	+ modify color_set() function to work with color pair 0 (report by
	  George Andreou <[e-mail]>).
	+ add configure option --with-trace, since defining TRACE seems too
	  awkward for some cases.
	+ remove a call to _nc_free_termtype() from read_termtype(), since the
	  corresponding buffer contents were already zeroed by a memset (cf:
	  20000101).
	+ improve configure check for _XOPEN_SOURCE and related definitions,
	  adding special cases for Solaris' __EXTENSIONS__ and FreeBSD's
	  __BSD_TYPES (reports by Marc Glisse <[e-mail]>).
	+ small fixes to compile on Solaris and IRIX64 using cc.
	+ correct typo in check for pre-POSIX sort options in MKkey_defs.sh
	  (cf: 20031101).

20031129
	+ modify _nc_gettime() to avoid a problem with arithmetic on unsigned
	  values (Philippe Blain).
	+ improve the nanosleep() logic in napms() by checking for EINTR and
	  restarting (Philippe Blain).
	+ correct expression for "%D" in lib_tgoto.c (Juha Jarvi
	  <[e-mail]>).

20031122
	+ add linux-vt terminfo entry (Andrey V Lukyanov <[e-mail]>).
	+ allow "\|" escape in terminfo; tic should not warn about this.
	+ save the full pathname of the trace-file the first time it is opened,
	  to avoid creating it in different directories if the application
	  opens and closes it while changing its working directory.
	+ modify configure script to provide a non-empty default for
	  $BROKEN_LINKER

20031108
	+ add DJGPP to special case of DOS-style drive letters potentially
	  appearing in TERMCAP environment variable.
	+ fix some spelling in comments (reports by jmc, Jonathon Gray).
	+ update config.guess, config.sub

20031101
	+ fix a memory leak in error-return from setupterm() (report by
	  Stanislav Ievlev <[e-mail]>).
	+ use EXEEXT and OBJEXT consistently in makefiles.
	+ amend fixes for cross-compiling to use separate executable-suffix
	  BUILD_EXEEXT (cf: 20031018).
	+ modify MKkey_defs.sh to check for sort utility that does not
	  recognize key options, e.g., busybox (report by Peter S Mazinger
	  <[e-mail]>).
	+ fix potential out-of-bounds indexing in _nc_infotocap() (found by
	  David Krause using some of the new malloc debugging features
	  under OpenBSD, patch by Ted Unangst).
	+ modify CF_LIB_SUFFIX for Itanium releases of HP-UX, which use a
	  ".so" suffix (patch by Jonathan Ward <[e-mail]>).

20031025
	+ update terminfo for xterm-xfree86 -TD
	+ add check for multiple "tc=" clauses in a termcap to tic.
	+ check for missing op/oc in tic.
	+ correct _nc_resolve_uses() and _nc_merge_entry() to allow infocmp and
	  tic to show cancelled capabilities.  These functions were ignoring
	  the state of the target entry, which should be untouched if cancelled.
	+ correct comment in tack/output.c (Debian #215806).
	+ add some null-pointer checks to lib_options.c (report by Michael
	  Bienia).
	+ regenerated html documentation.
	+ correction to tar-copy.sh, remove a trap command that resulted in
	  leaving temporary files (cf: 20030510).
	+ remove contact/maintainer addresses for Juergen Pfeifer (his request).

20031018
	+ updated test/configure to reflect changes for libtool (cf: 20030830).
	+ fix several places in tack/pad.c which tested and used the parameter-
	  and parameterless strings inconsistently, i.e., in pad_rin(),
	  pad_il(), pad_indn() and pad_dl() (Debian #215805).
	+ minor fixes for configure script and makefiles to cleanup executables
	  generated when cross-compiling for DJGPP.
	+ modify infocmp to omit check for $TERM for operations that do not
	  require it, e.g., "infocmp -e" used to build fallback list (report by
	  Koblinger Egmont).

20031004
	+ add terminfo entries for DJGPP.
	+ updated note about maintainer in ncurses-intro.html

20030927
	+ update terminfo entries for gnome terminal.
	+ modify tack to reset colors after each color test, correct a place
	  where exit_standout_mode was used instead of exit_attribute_mode.
	+ improve tack's bce test by making it set colors other than black
	  on white.
	+ plug a potential recursion between napms() and _nc_timed_wait()
	  (report by Philippe Blain).

20030920
	+ add --with-rel-version option to allow workaround to allow making
	  libtool on Darwin generate the "same" library names as with the
	  --with-shared option.  The Darwin ld program does not work well
	  with a zero as the minor-version value (request by Chris Zubrzycki).
	+ modify CF_MIXEDCASE_FILENAMES macro to work with cross-compiling.
	+ modify tack to allow it to run from fallback terminfo data.
	> Philippe Blain:
	+ improve PutRange() by adjusting call to EmitRange() and corresponding
	  return-value to not emit unchanged characters on the end of the
	  range.
	+ improve a check for changed-attribute by exiting a loop when the
	  change is found.
	+ improve logic in TransformLine(), eliminating a duplicated comparison
	  in the clr_bol logic.

20030913
	> Philippe Blain:
	+ in ncurses/tty/lib_mvcur.c,
	  move the label 'nonlocal' just before the second gettimeofday() to
	  be able to compute the diff time when 'goto nonlocal' used.
	  Rename 'msec' to 'microsec' in the debug-message.
	+ in ncurses/tty/lib_mvcur.c,
	  Use _nc_outch() in carriage return/newline movement instead of
	  putchar() which goes to stdout.  Move test for xold>0 out of loop.
	+ in ncurses/tinfo/setbuf.c,
	  Set the flag SP->_buffered at the end of operations when all has been
	  successful (typeMalloc can fail).
	+ simplify NC_BUFFERED macro by moving check inside _nc_setbuf().

20030906
	+ modify configure script to avoid using "head -1", which does not
	  work if POSIXLY_CORRECT (sic) is set.
	+ modify run_tic.in to avoid using wrong shared libraries when
	  cross-compiling (Dan Kegel).

20030830
	+ alter configure script help message to make it clearer that
	  --with-build-cc does not specify a cross-compiler (suggested by Dan
	  Kegel <[e-mail]>).
	+ modify configure script to accommodate libtool 1.5, as well as add an
	  parameter to the "--with-libtool" option which can specify the
	  pathname of libtool (report by Chris Zubrzycki).  We note that
	  libtool 1.5 has more than one bug in its C++ support, so it is not
	  able to install libncurses++, for instance, if $DESTDIR or the option
	  --with-install-prefix is used.

20030823
	> Philippe Blain:
	+ move assignments to SP->_cursrow, SP->_curscol into online_mvcur().
	+ make baudrate computation in delay_output() consistent with the
	  assumption in _nc_mvcur_init(), i.e., a byte is 9 bits.

20030816
	+ modify logic in waddch_literal() to take into account zh_TW.Big5
	  whose multibyte sequences may contain "printable" characters, e.g.,
	  a "g" in the sequence "\247g" (Debian #204889, cf: 20030621).
	+ improve storage used by _nc_safe_strcpy() by ensuring that the size
	  is reset based on the initialization call, in case it were called
	  after other strcpy/strcat calls (report by Philippe Blain).
	> Philippe Blain:
	+ remove an unused ifdef for REAL_ATTR & WANT_CHAR
	+ correct a place where _cup_cost was used rather than _cuu_cost

20030809
	+ fix a small memory leak in _nc_free_termtype().
	+ close trace-file if trace() is called with a zero parameter.
	+ free memory allocated for soft-key strings, in delscreen().
	+ fix an allocation size in safe_sprintf.c for the "*" format code.
	+ correct safe_sprintf.c to not return a null pointer if the format
	  happens to be an empty string.  This applies to the "configure
	  --enable-safe-sprintf" option (Redhat #101486).

20030802
	+ modify casts used for ABSENT_BOOLEAN and CANCELLED_BOOLEAN (report by
	  Daniel Jacobowitz).
	> Philippe Blain:
	+ change padding for change_scroll_region to not be proportional to
	  the size of the scroll-region.
	+ correct error-return in _nc_safe_strcat().

20030726
	+ correct limit-checks in _nc_scroll_window() (report and test-case by
	  Thomas Graf <[e-mail]> cf: 20011020).
	+ re-order configure checks for _XOPEN_SOURCE to avoid conflict with
	  _GNU_SOURCE check.

20030719
	+ use clr_eol in preference to blanks for bce terminals, so select and
	  paste will have fewer trailing blanks, e.g., when using xterm
	  (request by Vincent Lefevre).
	+ correct prototype for wunctrl() in manpage.
	+ add configure --with-abi-version option (discussion with Charles
	  Wilson).
	> cygwin changes from Charles Wilson:
	  + aclocal.m4: on cygwin, use autodetected prefix for import
	    and static lib, but use "cyg" for DLL.
	  + include/ncurses_dll.h: correct the comments to reflect current
	    status of cygwin/mingw port.  Fix compiler warning.
	  + misc/run_tic.in: ensure that tic.exe can find the uninstalled
	    DLL, by adding the lib-directory to the PATH variable.
	  + misc/terminfo.src (nxterm|xterm-color): make xterm-color
	    primary instead of nxterm, to match XFree86's xterm.terminfo
	    usage and to prevent circular links.
	    (rxvt): add additional codes from rxvt.org.
	    (rxvt-color): new alias
	    (rxvt-xpm): new alias
	    (rxvt-cygwin): like rxvt, but with special acsc codes.
	    (rxvt-cygwin-native): ditto.  rxvt may be run under XWindows, or
	    with a "native" MSWin GUI.	Each takes different acsc codes,
	    which are both different from the "normal" rxvt's acsc.
	    (cygwin): cygwin-in-cmd.exe window.	 Lots of fixes.
	    (cygwinDBG): ditto.
	  + mk-1st.awk: use "cyg" for the DLL prefix, but "lib" for import
	    and static libs.

20030712
	+ update config.guess, config.sub
	+ add triples for configuring shared libraries with the Debian
	  GNU/FreeBSD packages (patch by Robert Millan <[e-mail]>).

20030705
	+ modify CF_GCC_WARNINGS so it only applies to gcc, not g++.  Some
	  platforms have installed g++ along with the native C compiler, which
	  would not accept gcc warning options.
	+ add -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 when configuring with --enable-widec, to
	  get mbstate_t declaration on HPUX 11.11 (report by David Ellement).
	+ add _nc_pathlast() to get rid of casts in _nc_basename() calls.
	+ correct a sign-extension in wadd_wch() and wecho_wchar() from
	  20030628 (report by Tomohiro KUBOTA).
	+ work around omission of btowc() and wctob() from wide-character
	  support (sic) in NetBSD 1.6 using mbtowc() and wctomb() (report by
	  Gabor Z Papp).
	+ add portability note to curs_get_wstr.3x (Debian #199957).

20030628
	+ rewrite wadd_wch() and wecho_wchar() to call waddch() and wechochar()
	  respectively, to avoid calling waddch_noecho() with wide-character
	  data, since that function assumes its input is 8-bit data.
	  Similarly, modify waddnwstr() to call wadd_wch().
	+ remove logic from waddnstr() which transformed multibyte character
	  strings into wide-characters.  Rewrite of waddch_literal() from
	  20030621 assumes its input is raw multibyte data rather than wide
	  characters (report by Tomohiro KUBOTA).

20030621
	+ write getyx() and related 2-return macros in terms of getcury(),
	  getcurx(), etc.
