# lcurses NEWS - User visible changes
## Noteworthy changes in release 9.0.0 (2016-01-10) [stable]
- This is the first standalone release since lcurses was absorbed into
luaposix on 2011-09-09.
### Incompatible Changes
- posix.curses has been split back out into its own separate
project again!
- The ncurses-only `KEY_MOUSE` definition has been removed.
### New Features
- Can now be linked against NetBSD curses, albeit with several functions
not implemented by that library returning a "not implemented" error as
a consequence.
- The curses library now includes reasonably comprehensive LDoc
documentation (certainly much better than the single wooly web-page in
previous releases).
- Install curses.html documentation file correctly.
- Add `curses.A_COLOR` (where supported by the underlying curses library) for
extracting color pair assignments from the results of `curses.window.winch`.
- Add missing `curses.KEY_F31` constant.
- All APIs now fully and correctly diagnose extraneous and wrong type
arguments with an error.
- This release adds wresize to curses. Several small improvements
to the documentation were also added.
### Bugs Fixed
- Links to OpenGroup specs for curses function in section 3x now work.
