ncurses 库 可能有用酒用 没用就算了 我觉得还可以用

	+ modify waddch_literal() in case an application passes bytes of a
	  multibyte character directly to waddch().  In this case, waddch()
	  must reassemble the bytes into a wide-character (report by Tomohiro
	  KUBOTA <[e-mail]>).

20030614
	+ modify waddch_literal() in case a multibyte value occupies more than
	  two cells.
	+ modify PutAttrChar() to compute the number of character cells that
	  are used in multibyte values.  This fixes a problem displaying
	  double-width characters (report/test by Mitsuru Chinen
	  <[e-mail]>).
	+ add a null-pointer check for result of keyname() in _tracechar()
	+ modify _tracechar() to work around glibc sprintf bug.

20030607
	+ add a call to setlocale() in cursesmain.cc, making demo display
	  properly in a UTF-8 locale.
	+ add a fallback definition in curses.priv.h for MB_LEN_MAX (prompted
	  by discussion with Gabor Z Papp).
	+ use macros NCURSES_ACS() and NCURSES_WACS() to hide cast needed to
	  appease -Wchar-subscript with g++ 3.3 (Debian #195732).
	+ fix a redefinition of $RANLIB in the configure script when libtool
	  is used, which broke configure on Mac OS X (report by Chris Zubrzycki
	  <[e-mail]>).
	+ simplify ifdef for bool declaration in curses.h.in (suggested by
	  Albert Chin-A-Young).
	+ remove configure script check to allow -Wconversion for older
	  versions of gcc (suggested by Albert Chin-A-Young).

20030531
	+ regenerated html manpages.
	+ modify ifdef's in curses.h.in that disabled use of __attribute__()
	  for g++, since recent versions implement the cases which ncurses uses
	  (Debian #195230).
	+ modify _nc_get_token() to handle a case where an entry has no
	  description, and capabilities begin on the same line as the entry
	  name.
	+ fix a typo in ncurses_dll.h reported by gcc 3.3.
	+ add an entry for key_defined.3x to man_db.renames.

20030524
	+ modify setcchar() to allow converting control characters to complex
	  characters (report/test by Mitsuru Chinen <[e-mail]>).
	+ add tkterm entry -TD
	+ modify parse_entry.c to allow a terminfo entry with a leading
	  2-character name (report by Don Libes).
	+ corrected acsc in screen.teraterm, which requires a PC-style mapping.
	+ fix trace statements in read_entry.c to use lseek() rather than
	  tell().
	+ fix signed/unsigned warnings from Sun's compiler (gcc should give
	  these warnings, but it is unpredictable).
	+ modify configure script to omit -Winline for gcc 3.3, since that
	  feature is broken.
	+ modify manlinks.sed to add a few functions that were overlooked since
	  they return function pointers:  field_init, field_term, form_init,
	  form_term, item_init, item_term, menu_init and menu_term.

20030517
	+ prevent recursion in wgetch() via wgetnstr() if the connection cannot
	  be switched between cooked/raw modes because it is not a TTY (report
	  by Wolfgang Gutjahr <[e-mail]>).
	+ change parameter of define_key() and key_defined() to const (prompted
	  by Debian #192860).
	+ add a check in test/configure for ncurses extensions, since there
	  are some older versions, etc., which would not compile with the
	  current test programs.
	+ corrected demo in test/ncurses.c of wgetn_wstr(), which did not
	  convert wchar_t string to multibyte form before printing it.
	+ corrections to lib_get_wstr.c:
	  + null-terminate buffer passed to setcchar(), which occasionally
	    failed.
	  + map special characters such as erase- and kill-characters into
	    key-codes so those will work as expected even if they are not
	    mentioned in the terminfo.
	+ modify PUTC() and Charable() macros to make wide-character line
	  drawing work for POSIX locale on Linux console (cf: 20021221).

20030510
	+ make typography for program options in manpages consistent (report
	  by Miloslav Trmac <[e-mail]>).
	+ correct dependencies in Ada95/src/Makefile.in, so the builds with
	  "--srcdir" work (report by Warren L Dodge).
	+ correct missing definition of $(CC) in Ada95/gen/Makefile.in
	  (reported by Warren L Dodge <[e-mail]>).
	+ fix typos and whitespace in manpages (patch by jmc
	  <[e-mail]>).

20030503
	+ fix form_driver() cases for REQ_CLR_EOF, REQ_CLR_EOL, REQ_DEL_CHAR,
	  REQ_DEL_PREV and REQ_NEW_LINE, which did not ensure the cursor was at
	  the editing position before making modifications.
	+ add test/demo_forms and associated test/edit_field.c demos.
	+ modify test/configure.in to use test/modules for the list of objects
	  to compile rather than using the list of programs.

20030419
	+ modify logic of acsc to use the original character if no mapping is
	  defined, noting that Solaris does this.
	+ modify ncurses 'b' test to avoid using the acs_map[] array since
	  20021231 changes it to no longer contain information from the acsc
	  string.
	+ modify makefile rules in c++, progs, tack and test to ensure that
	  the compiler flags (e.g., $CFLAGS or $CCFLAGS) are used in the link
	  command (report by Jose Luis Rico Botella <[e-mail]>).
	+ modify soft-key initialization to use A_REVERSE if A_STANDOUT would
	  not be shown when colors are used, i.e., if ncv#1 is set in the
	  terminfo as is done in "screen".

20030412
	+ add a test for slk_color(), in ncurses.c
	+ fix some issues reported by valgrind in the slk_set() and slk_wset()
	  code, from recent rewrite.
	+ modify ncurses 'E' test to use show previous label via slk_label(),
	  as in 'e' test.
	+ modify wide-character versions of NewChar(), NewChar2() macros to
	  ensure that the whole struct is initialized.

20030405
	+ modify setupterm() to check if the terminfo and terminal-modes have
	  already been read.  This ensures that it does not reinvoke
	  def_prog_mode() when an application calls more than one function,
	  such as tgetent() and initscr() (report by Olaf Buddenhagen).

20030329
	+ add 'E' test to ncurses.c, to exercise slk_wset().
	+ correct handling of carriage-return in wgetn_wstr(), used in demo of
	  slk_wset().
	+ first draft of slk_wset() function.

20030322
	+ improved warnings in tic when suppressing items to fit in termcap's
	  1023-byte limit.
	+ built a list in test/README showing which externals are being used
	  by either programs in the test-directory or via internal library
	  calls.
	+ adjust include-options in CF_ETIP_DEFINES to avoid missing
	  ncurses_dll.h, fixing special definitions that may be needed for
	  etip.h (reported by Greg Schafer <[e-mail]>).

20030315
	+ minor fixes for cardfile.c, to make it write the updated fields to
	  a file when ^W is given.
	+ add/use _nc_trace_bufcat() to eliminate some fixed buffer limits in
	  trace code.

20030308
	+ correct a case in _nc_remove_string(), used by define_key(), to avoid
	  infinite loop if the given string happens to be a substring of other
	  strings which are assigned to keys (report by John McCutchan).
	+ add key_defined() function, to tell which keycode a string is bound
	  to (discussion with John McCutchan <[e-mail]>).
	+ correct keybound(), which reported definitions in the wrong table,
	  i.e., the list of definitions which are disabled by keyok().
	+ modify demo_keydef.c to show the details it changes, and to check
	  for errors.

20030301
	+ restructured test/configure script, make it work for libncursesw.
	+ add description of link_fieldtype() to manpage (report by
	  L Dee Holtsclaw <[e-mail]>).

20030222
	+ corrected ifdef's relating to configure check for wchar_t, etc.
	+ if the output is a socket or other non-tty device, use 1 millisecond
	  for the cost in mvcur; previously it was 9 milliseconds because the
	  baudrate was not known.
	+ in _nc_get_tty_mode(), initialize the TTY buffer on error, since
	  glibc copies uninitialized data in that case, as noted by valgrind.
	+ modify tput to use the same parameter analysis as tparm() does, to
	  provide for user-defined strings, e.g., for xterm title, a
	  corresponding capability might be
		title=\E]2;%p1%s^G,
	+ modify MKlib_gen.sh to avoid passing "#" tokens through the C
	  preprocessor.  This works around Mac OS X's preprocessor, which
	  insists on adding a blank on each side of the token (report/analysis
	  by Kevin Murphy <[e-mail]>).

20030215
	+ add configure check for wchar_t and wint_t types, rather than rely
	  on preprocessor definitions.  Also work around for gcc fixinclude
	  bug which creates a shadow copy of curses.h if it sees these symbols
	  apparently typedef'd.
	+ if database is disabled, do not generate run_tic.sh
	+ minor fixes for memory-leak checking when termcap is read.

20030208
	+ add checking in tic for incomplete line-drawing character mapping.
	+ update configure script to reflect fix for AC_PROG_GCC_TRADITIONAL,
	  which is broken in autoconf 2.5x for Mac OS X 10.2.3 (report by
	  Gerben Wierda <[e-mail]>).
	+ make return value from _nc_printf_string() consistent.  Before,
	  depending on whether --enable-safe-sprintf was used, it might not be
	  cached for reallocating.

20030201
	+ minor fixes for memory-leak checking in lib_tparm.c, hardscroll.c
	+ correct a potentially-uninitialized value if _read_termtype() does
	  not read as much data as expected (report by Wolfgang Rohdewald
	  <[e-mail]>).
	+ correct several places where the aclocal.m4 macros relied on cache
	  variable names which were incompatible (as usual) between autoconf
	  2.13 and 2.5x, causing the test for broken-linker to give incorrect
	  results (reports by Gerben Wierda <[e-mail]> and Thomas Esser
	  <[e-mail]>).
	+ do not try to open gpm mouse driver if standard output is not a tty;
	  the gpm library does not make this check (from bug report for dialog
	  by David Oliveira <[e-mail]>).

20030125
	+ modified emx.src to correspond more closely to terminfo.src, added
	  emx-base to the latter -TD
	+ add configure option for FreeBSD sysmouse, --with-sysmouse, and
	  implement support for that in lib_mouse.c, lib_getch.c

20030118
	+ revert 20030105 change to can_clear_with(), does not work for the
	  case where the update is made on cells which are blanks with
	  attributes, e.g., reverse.
	+ improve ifdef's to guard against redefinition of wchar_t and wint_t
	  in curses.h (report by Urs Jansen).

20030111
	+ improve mvcur() by checking if it is safe to move when video
	  attributes are set (msgr), and if not, reset/restore attributes
	  within that function rather than doing it separately in the GoTo()
	  function in tty_update.c (suggested by Philippe Blain).
	+ add a message in run_tic.in to explain more clearly what does not
	  work when attempting to create a symbolic link for /usr/lib/terminfo
	  on OS/2 and other platforms with no symbolic links (report by John
	  Polterak).
	+ change several sed scripts to avoid using "\+" since it is not a BRE
	  (basic regular expression).  One instance caused terminfo.5 to be
	  misformatted on FreeBSD (from a FreeBSD bug report by Kazuo Horikawa
	  <[e-mail]>).
	+ correct misspelled 'wint_t' in curs_get_wch.3x (Michael Elkins).

20030105
	+ improve description of terminfo operators, especially static/dynamic
	  variables (comments by Mark I Manning IV <[e-mail]>).
	+ demonstrate use of FIELDTYPE by modifying test/ncurses 'r' test to
	  use the predefined TYPE_ALPHA field-type, and by defining a
	  specialized type for the middle initial/name.
	+ fix MKterminfo.sh, another workaround for POSIXLY_CORRECT misfeature
	  of sed 4.0
	> Philippe Blain:
	+ optimize can_clear_with() a little by testing first if the parameter
	  is indeed a "blank".
	+ simplify ClrBottom() a little by allowing it to use clr_eos to clear
	  sections as small as one line.
	+ improve ClrToEOL() by checking if clr_eos is available before trying
	  to use it.
	+ use tputs() rather than putp() in a few cases in tty_update.c since
	  the corresponding delays are proportional to the number of lines
	  affected: repeat_char, clr_eos, change_scroll_region.

20021231
	+ rewrite of lib_acs.c conflicts with copying of SCREEN acs_map to/from
	  global acs_map[] array; removed the lines that did the copying.

20021228
	+ change some overlooked tputs() calls in scrolling code to use putp()
	  (report by Philippe Blain).
	+ modify lib_getch.c to avoid recursion via wgetnstr() when the input
	  is not a tty and consequently mode-changes do not work (report by
	  <[e-mail]>).
	+ rewrote lib_acs.c to allow PutAttrChar() to decide how to render
	  alternate-characters, i.e., to work with Linux console and UTF-8
	  locale.
	+ correct line/column reference in adjust_window(), needed to make
	  special windows such as curscr track properly when resizing (report
	  by Lucas Gonze <[e-mail]>).
	> Philippe Blain:
	+ correct the value used for blank in ClrBottom() (broken in 20000708).
	+ correct an off-by-one in GoTo() parameter in _nc_scrolln().

20021221
	+ change several tputs() calls in scrolling code to use putp(), to
	  enable padding which may be needed for some terminals (patch by
	  by Philippe Blain).
	+ use '%' as sed substitute delimiter in run_tic script to avoid
	  problems with pathname delimiters such as ':' and '@' (report by John
	  Polterak).
	+ implement a workaround so that line-drawing works with screen's
	  crippled UTF-8 support (tested with 3.9.13).  This only works with
	  the wide-character support (--enable-widec); the normal library will
	  simply suppress line-drawing when running in a UTF-8 locale in screen.

20021214
	+ allow BUILD_CC and relat
