This was to reinvestigate statement in X/Open curses + that insnstr and winsnstr perform wrapping. None of the Unix-branded + implementations do this, as noted in manpage (cf: 20040228). + +20080203 + + modify _nc_setupscreen() to set the legacy-coding value the same + for both narrow/wide models. It had been set only for wide model, + but is needed to make unctrl() work with locale in the narrow model. + + improve waddch() and winsch() handling of EILSEQ from mbrtowc() by + using unctrl() to display illegal bytes rather than trying to append + further bytes to make up a valid sequence (reported by Andrey A + Chernov). + + modify unctrl() to check codes in 128-255 range versus isprint(). + If they are not printable, and locale was set, use a "M-" or "~" + sequence. + +20080126 + + improve threading in test/worm.c (wrap refresh calls, and KEY_RESIZE + handling). Now it hangs in napms(), no matter whether nanosleep() + or poll() or select() are used on Linux. + +20080119 + + fixes to build with --disable-ext-funcs + + add manpage for use_window and use_screen. + + add set_tabsize() and set_escdelay() functions. + +20080112 + + remove recursive-mutex definitions, finish threading demo for worm.c + + remove a redundant adjustment of lines in resizeterm.c's + adjust_window() which caused occasional misadjustment of stdscr when + softkeys were used. + +20080105 + + several improvements to terminfo entries based on xterm #230 -TD + + modify MKlib_gen.sh to handle keyname/key_name prototypes, so the + "link_test" builds properly. + + fix for toe command-line options -u/-U to ensure filename is given. + + fix allocation-size for command-line parsing in infocmp from 20070728 + (report by Miroslav Lichvar) + + improve resizeterm() by moving ripped-off lines, and repainting the + soft-keys (report by Katarina Machalkova) + + add clarification in wclear's manpage noting that the screen will be + cleared even if a subwindow is cleared (prompted by Christer Enfors + question). + + change test/ncurses.c soft-key tests to work with KEY_RESIZE. + 20071222 + continue implementing support for threading demo by adding mutex for delwin(). |
