Nothing much new this time, but I've been sitting on some bug fixes for
almost a year, so it's overdue. Apart from bugs, the main changes are in
the documentation.

New features:

  • setsyx() is now a function rather than a macro.

Bug fixes and such:

  • In x11, the xc_atrtab table size was under-calculated by half,
    resulting in crashes at (oddly) certain line counts. (It should've
    crashed a lot more.) Reported by Mark Hessling.

  • Test for moved cursor was omitting the window origin offset. Reported
    by Carey Evans.

  • Is DOS and OS/2, the value for max items in key_table was still wrong.
    Reported by C.E.

  • Changed isendwin() so it won't crash after delscreen().

  • Ensure zero-termination in PDC_mbstowcs() and PDC_wcstombs().

  • Disable QuickEdit Mode when enabling mouse input for the Win32
    console; reported by "Zalapkrakna".

  • Fix for building under Innotek C (I hope). Report by Elbert Pol, fix
    courtesy of Paul Smedley.

  • Unified exports list with no duplicates -- pdcurses.def is now built
    from components at compile time.

  • Don't install curspriv.h, and don't include it with binary
    distributions.

  • Building DLLs with LCC is no longer supported, due to the primitive
    nature of its make.exe.

  • Export the terminfo stub functions from the DLLs, too.

  • Added support for Apple's ".dylib" in configure. Suggested by Marc
    Vaillant (who says it's needed with OS 10.5.)

  • In sdl1/Makefile.mng, ensure that CC is set.

  • In the gcc makefiles, "$?" didn't really have the desired effect --
    all the dependencies showed up on the command line, including
    curses.h, and pdcurses.a twice. And apparently, this can mess up some
    old version (?) of MinGW. So, revert to spelling out "tuidemo.o
    tui.o". Reported by "Howard L."

  • Extensive documentation revision and reorganizing. More to do here.
    For example, I moved the build instructions from INSTALL (which never
    really described installation) to the platform-specific READMEs.

  • New indentation standard: four spaces, no tabs.
