                                  Release Notes
 
    This  release  is  designed  to  be upward compatible from ncurses 5.0
-   through   5.5;  very  few  applications  will  require  recompilation,
+   through   5.6;  very  few  applications  will  require  recompilation,
    depending   on  the  platform.  These  are  the  highlights  from  the
-   change-log since ncurses 5.5 release.
+   change-log since ncurses 5.6 release.
 
    Interface changes:
      * generate linkable stubs for some macros:
-       getbegx,  getbegy,  getcurx,  getcury,  getmaxx, getmaxy, getparx,
-       getpary, getpary,
-       and (for libncursesw)
-       wgetbkgrnd
+       getattrs
 
    New features and improvements:
      * library
-          + support  hashed databases for the terminal descriptions. This
-            uses  the  Berkeley  database,  has  been  tested for several
-            versions on different platforms.
-          + add    use_legacy_coding()   function   to   support   lynx's
-            font-switching feature.
-          + add extension nofilter(), to cancel a prior filter() call.
-          + add/install a package config script, e.g., ncurses5-config or
-            ncursesw5-config, according to configuration options.
-          + provide  ifdef  for  NCURSES_NOMACROS  which  suppresses most
-            macro  definitions  from  curses.h,  i.e.,  where  a macro is
-            defined to override a function to improve performance.
-          + make  ifdef's  consistent in curses.h for the extended colors
-            so the header file can be used for the normal curses library.
-            The  header file installed for extended colors is a variation
-            of the wide-character configuration.
-          + improve  tgetstr()  by making the return value point into the
-            user's buffer, if provided.
-          + add  ifdef's  allowing ncurses to be built with tparm() using
-            either   varargs   (the   existing   status),   or   using  a
-            fixed-parameter list (to match X/Open).
-          + widen  the  test  for xterm kmous a little to allow for other
-            strings  than  "\E[M",  e.g.,  for xterm-sco functionality in
-            xterm.
-          + modify wgetnstr() to return KEY_RESIZE if a sigwinch occurs.
-          + move  prototypes  for  wide-character  trace  functions  from
-            curses.tail  to  curses.wide to avoid accidental reference to
-            those  if  _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED is defined without ensuring
-            that <wchar.h> is included.
-          + change  the  way  shared  libraries  (other than libtool) are
-            installed.  Rather  than  copying the build-tree's libraries,
-            link  the  shared  objects  into  the install directory. This
-            makes the --with-rpath option work except with $(DESTDIR).
-          + several  improvements for rendering in hpterm. These are only
-            available    if    the    library    is    configured   using
-            --enable-xmc-glitch.
-          + Add    NCURSES_NO_HARD_TABS    and    NCURSES_NO_MAGIC_COOKIE
-            environment  variables  to  allow  runtime suppression of the
-            related hard-tabs and xmc-glitch features.
+          + new  flavor  of  the  ncurses  library  provides  rudimentary
+            support  for  POSIX threads. Several functions are reentrant,
+            but most require either a window-level or screen-level mutex.
+            (This  is  API-compatible,  but  not  ABI-compatible with the
+            normal library).
+          + add  NCURSES_OPAQUE  symbol  to  curses.h,  will  use to make
+            structs opaque in selected configurations.
+          + add   NCURSES_EXT_FUNCS  and  NCURSES_EXT_COLORS  symbols  to
+            curses.h to make it simpler to tell if the extended functions
+            and/or colors are declared.
+          + add wresize() to C++ binding
+          + eliminate fixed-buffer vsprintf() calls in C++ binding.
+          + add  several  functions to C++ binding which wrap C functions
+            that pass a WINDOW* parameter.
+          + adapt mouse-handling code from menu library in form-library
+          + improve  tracing  for  form  library,  showing created forms,
+            fields, etc.
+          + make $NCURSES_NO_PADDING feature work for termcap interface .
+          + add  check  to  trace-file  open,  if  the  given  name  is a
+            directory, add ".log" to the name and try again.
+          + several   new   manpages:  curs_legacy.3x,  curs_memleaks.3x,
+            curs_opaque.3x and curs_threads.3x
      * programs:
-          + add  new  test programs: chgat.c, demo_altkeys.c, echochar.c,
-            foldkeys.c,  movewindow.c,  redraw.c,  (noting  that existing
-            test   programs   also   were  modified  to  test  additional
-            features).
-          + modify tack to test extended capability function-key strings.
-          + modify  toe  to  access  termcap  data,  e.g.,  via cgetent()
-            functions, or as a text file if those are not available.
-          + improve infocmp/tic -f option formatting.
-          + add  toe  -a  option,  to  show  all databases. This uses new
-            private  interfaces  in  the  ncurses  library  for iterating
-            through the list of databases.
-          + modify MKfallback.sh to use tic -x when constructing fallback
-            tables  to allow extended capabilities to be retrieved from a
-            fallback entry.
+          + modified  three  test-programs  to  demonstrate the threading
+            support in this version: ditto, rain, worm.
+          + several    new    test-programs:   demo_panels,   dots_mvcur,
+            inch_wide,    inchs,    key_name,    key_names,   savescreen,
+            savescreen.sh    test_arrays,   test_get_wstr,   test_getstr,
+            test_instr, test_inwstr and test_opaque.
+          + add adacurses-config to the Ada95 install.
+          + modify  tic  -f option to format spaces as \s to prevent them
+            from  being  lost  when  that  is  read  back  in unformatted
+            strings.
+          + The tack program is now distributed separately from ncurses.
      * terminal database
-          + add terminfo entries for xfce terminal (xfce) and multi gnome
-            terminal (mgt)
-          + add nsterm-16color entry
-          + updated mlterm terminfo entry
-          + add kon, kon2 and jfbterm terminfo entry
-          + remove  invis capability from klone+sgr, mainly used by linux
-            entry, since it does not really do this
-          + add ka2, kb1, kb3, kc2 to vt220-keypad as an extension
-          + add  shifted  up/down  arrow  codes  to xterm-new as kind/kri
-            strings
-          + add hpterm-color terminfo entry
-          + add  256color variants of terminfo entries for programs which
-            are reported to implement this feature
-          + correct  order  of use-clauses in rxvt-basic entry which made
-            codes for f1-f4 vt100-style rather than vt220-style.
+          + added entries:
+               o Eterm-256color, Eterm-88color and rxvt-88color
+               o aterm
+               o konsole-256color
+               o mrxvt
+               o screen.mlterm
+               o screen.rxvt
+               o teraterm4.59  is now the primary primary teraterm entry,
+                 renamed original to teraterm2.3
+               o 9term terminal
+               o Newbury Data entries
+          + updated/improved entries:
+               o gnome to version 2.22.3
+               o h19, z100
+               o konsole to version 1.6.6
+               o mlterm, mlterm+pcfkeys
+               o xterm, and building-blocks for function-keys to [3]xterm
+                 patch #230.
 
    Major bug fixes:
-     * correct  a typo in configure --with-bool option for the case where
-       --without-cxx is used.
-     * move  assignment from environment variable ESCDELAY from initscr()
-       down to newterm() so the environment variable affects timeouts for
-       terminals opened with newterm() as well.
-     * modify  werase  to clear multicolumn characters that extend into a
-       derived window.
-     * modify wchgat() to mark updated cells as changed so a refresh will
-       repaint those cells.
-     * correct  logic  in wadd_wch() and wecho_wch(), which did not guard
-       against   passing  the  multi-column  attribute  into  a  call  on
-       waddch(), e.g., using data returned by win_wch()
-     * fix  redrawing  of  windows other than stdscr using wredrawln() by
-       touching the corresponding rows in curscr.
-     * reduce  memory leaks in repeated calls to tgetent() by remembering
-       the  last TERMINAL* value allocated to hold the corresponding data
-       and freeing that if the tgetent() result buffer is the same as the
-       previous call.
-     * modify  read_termtype() so the term_names data is always allocated
-       as part of the str_table, a better fix for a memory leak.
-     * fix  wins_nwstr(),  which  did  not  handle single-column non-8bit
-       codes.
-     * modify  wbkgrnd()  to avoid clearing the A_CHARTEXT attribute bits
-       since those record the state of multicolumn characters.
-     * improve   SIGWINCH   handling  by  postponing  its  effect  during
-       newterm(), etc., when allocating screens.
-     * remove  970913 feature for copying subwindows as they are moved in
-       mvwin().
-     * add checks in waddchnstr() and wadd_wchnstr() to stop copying when
-       a null character is found.
-     * add  some  checks  to  ensure current position is within scrolling
-       region before scrolling on a new line.
-     * add  a  workaround  to  ACS  mapping to allow applications such as
-       test/blue.c  to  use  the "PC ROM" characters by masking them with
-       A_ALTCHARSET. This worked up til 5.5, but was lost in the revision
-       of legacy coding.
+     * add   logic   to   tic  for  cancelling  strings  in  user-defined
+       capabilities (this is needed for current konsole terminfo entry).
+     * modify  mk-1st.awk  so the generated makefile rules for linking or
+       installing  shared  libraries  do not first remove the library, in
+       case it is in use, e.g., libncurses.so by /bin/sh.
+     * correct check for notimeout() in wgetch().
+     * fix a sign-extension bug in infocmp's repair_acsc() function.
+     * change winnstr() to stop at the end of the line.
+     * make Ada95 demo_panels() example work.
+     * fix for adding a non-spacing character at the beginning of a line.
+     * fill   in   extended-color   pair   to   make   colors   work  for
+       wide-characters using extended-colors.
+     * improve  refresh  of  window  on  top  of multi-column characters,
+       taking   into   account  split  characters  on  left/right  window
+       boundaries.
+     * modify  win_wchnstr()  to ensure that only a base cell is returned
+       for each multi-column character.
+     * 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.
+     * restore curs_set() state after endwin()/refresh()
+     * modify  keyname() to use "^X" form only if meta() has been called,
+       or  if  keyname() is called without initializing curses, e.g., via
+       initscr() or newterm().
+     * 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.
+     * improve  resizeterm()  by  moving ripped-off lines, and repainting
+       the soft-keys.

      * library:
-          + ignore wide-acs line-drawing characters that wcwidth() claims
-            are  not one-column. This is a workaround for Solaris' broken
-            locale support.

-            HAVE_xxx symbols.

+          + rewrite  wrapper  for  wcrtomb(),  making it work on Solaris.
+            This  is  used in the form library to determine the length of
+            the buffer needed by field_buffer.

+          + 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.
+          + reset mouse file-descriptor when unloading GPM library.
      * test programs:
-          + modify  test/configure script to allow building test programs
-            with PDCurses/X11.
-          + modified  test  programs  to  allow  some to work with NetBSD
-            curses.  Several  do  not  because NetBSD curses implements a
-            subset  of  X/Open  curses,  and  also  lacks  much  of  SVr4
-            additions. But it is enough for comparison.
-          + improved  test/configure  to  build  test/ncurses  on HPUX 11
-            using the vendor curses.
-          + change  configure  script  to produce test/Makefile from data

     you may encounter when building a system with different versions of
     ncurses:
 
+    5.7 (November 2, 2008)
+	Interface changes:
+
+	+ generate linkable stubs for some macros:
+		getattrs
+
+	+ Add new library configuration for tic-library (the non-curses portion
+	  of the ncurses library used for the tic program as well as some
+	  others such as tack.  There is no API change, but makefiles would be
+	  changed to use the tic-library built separately.
+	  
+	  tack, distributed separately from ncurses, uses some of the internal
+	  _nc_XXX functions, which are declared in the tic.h header file.
+
+	  The reason for providing this separate library is that none of the
+	  functions in it are suitable for threaded applications.
+
+	+ Add new library configuration (ncursest, ncurseswt) which provides
+	  rudimentary support for POSIX threads.  This introduces opaque
+	  access functions to the WINDOW structure and adds a parameter to
+	  several internal functions.
+
+	+ move most internal variables (except tic-library) into data blocks
+	  _nc_globals and _nc_prescreen to simplify analysis.  Those were
+	  globally accessible, but since they were not part of the documented
+	  API, there is no ABI change.
+
+	+ changed static tables of strings to be indices into long strings, to
+	  improve startup performance.  This changes parameter lists for some
+	  of the internal functions.
+
+	Added extensions:
+
+	+ add NCURSES_OPAQUE definition in curses.h to control whether internal
+	  details of the WINDOW structure are visible to an application.  This
+	  is always defined when the threaded library is built, and is optional
+	  otherwise.  New functions for this:  is_cleared, is_idcok, is_idlok,
+	  is_immedok, is_keypad, is_leaveok, is_nodelay, is_notimeout,
+	  is_scrollok, is_syncok, wgetparent and wgetscrreg.
+
+	+ the threaded library (ncursest) also disallows direct updating of
+	  global curses-level variables, providing functions (via macros) for
+	  obtaining their value.  A few of those variables can be modified by
+	  the application, using new functions:  set_escdelay, set_tabsize
+
+	+ added functions use_window() and use_screen() which wrap a mutex
+	  (if threading is configured) around a call to a user-supplied
+	  function.
+
+	Added internal functions:
+		_nc_get_alias_table
+		_nc_get_screensize
+		_nc_keyname
+		_nc_screen_of
+		_nc_set_no_padding
+		_nc_tracechar
+		_nc_tracemouse
+		_nc_unctrl
+		_nc_ungetch
+
+		These are used for leak-testing, and are stubs for
+		ABI compatibility when ncurses is not configured for that
+		using the --disable-leaks configure script option:
+
+		_nc_free_and_exit
+		_nc_leaks_tinfo
+
+	Removed internal functions:
+		none
+
+	Modified internal functions:
+		_nc_fifo_dump
+		_nc_find_entry
+		_nc_handle_sigwinch
+		_nc_init_keytry
+		_nc_keypad
+		_nc_locale_breaks_acs
+		_nc_timed_wait
+		_nc_update_screensize
+
+		Use new typedef TRIES to replace "struct tries":
+
+		_nc_add_to_try
+		_nc_expand_try
+		_nc_remove_key
+		_nc_remove_string
+		_nc_trace_tries

+
+20081004
+	+ some build-fixes for configure --disable-ext-funcs (incomplete, but

+	+ 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

+	+ change CC_SHARED_OPTS from -KPIC to -xcode=pic32 for Solaris.
+	+ add "-shared" option to MK_SHARED_LIB for gcc on Solaris (report
+	  by Poor Yorick).
+
+20080607
+	+ finish changes to wgetch(), making it switch as needed to the
+	  window's actual screen when calling wrefresh() and wgetnstr().  That
+	  allows wgetch() to get used concurrently in different threads with
+	  some minor restrictions, e.g., the application should not delete a
+	  window which is being used in a wgetch().
+	+ simplify mutex's, combining the window- and screen-mutex's.
+
+20080531
+	+ modify wgetch() to use the screen which corresponds to its window
+	  parameter rather than relying on SP; some dependent functions still
+	  use SP internally.
+	+ factor out most use of SP in lib_mouse.c, using parameter.
+	+ add internal _nc_keyname(), replacing keyname() to associate with a
+	  particular SCREEN rather than the global SP.
