  <p>This file contains a list of the changes that I have made for
  luit.</p>

  <p><a id="t20221028" name="t20221028">2022/10/28</a> -</p>

  <ul>
    <li>fix a few compiler-warnings</li>

    <li>updated <code>plink.sh</code>, from xterm.</li>

    <li>updated configure script, to work around regression in grep
    3.8</li>

    <li>updated configure macros for compiler-warning fixes.</li>

    <li>update config.guess, config.sub, install-sh</li>
  </ul>

  <p><a id="t20220111" name="t20220111">2022/01/11</a> -</p>

  <ul>
    <li>rename <code>package/debian</code> to avoid misuse by
    Debian build-system.</li>

    <li>updated <code>plink.sh</code>, from xterm, to work around
    poor performance of gcc on Fedora.</li>

    <li>updated configure macros for compiler-warning fixes.</li>

    <li>update config.guess, config.sub</li>
  </ul>

  <p><a id="t20210218" name="t20210218">2021/02/18</a> -</p>

  <ul>
    <li>repair/improve the check for X manpage's section, using a
    fix from xterm patch #302.</li>

    <li>if a &ldquo;<code>.enc</code>&rdquo; file is found, but no
    built-in character set description is found, add that to the
    internal font-encoding table to allow it to be used, like the
    built-in character sets.</li>

    <li>modify <code>annotate-enc</code> to handle the external
    &ldquo;<code>.enc</code>&rdquo; which were used with the older
    <code>luit</code>.</li>
  </ul>

  <p><a id="t20210214" name="t20210214">2021/02/14</a> -</p>

  <ul>
    <li>add <code>annotate-enc</code> script, use that to annotate
    the ".enc" files.</li>

    <li>add built-in encoding <code>apl2</code> (prompted by patch
    by Jerome Ibanes).</li>
  </ul>

  <p><a id="t20210114" name="t20210114">2021/01/14</a> -</p>

  <ul>
    <li>minor cleanup of file-descriptors, for readability.</li>

    <li>updated configure macros for quoting/escaping fixes.</li>

    <li>update config.guess, config.sub</li>
  </ul>

  <p><a id="t20201003" name="t20201003">2020/10/03</a> -</p>

  <ul>
    <li>updated configure macros:
      <ul>
        <li>compiler-warning fixes</li>

        <li>build-fixes for OpenBSD and macOS</li>
      </ul>
    </li>

    <li>update config.guess, config.sub</li>
  </ul>

  <p><a id="t20191231" name="t20191231">2019/12/31</a> -</p>

  <ul>
    <li>updated configure macros.</li>

    <li>update config.guess, config.sub</li>
  </ul>

  <p><a id="t20190106" name="t20190106">2019/01/06</a> -</p>

  <ul>
    <li>updated configure macros to work around a non-POSIX feature
    of BSDs.</li>

    <li>add a dummy "check" rule to makefile for Arch
    packages.</li>

    <li>add <code>COPYING</code> file for Arch packages.</li>

    <li>use consistent wording for copyright notice in
    source-files.</li>

    <li>update config.guess, config.sub</li>
  </ul>

  <p><a id="t20181211" name="t20181211">2018/12/11</a> -</p>

  <ul>
    <li>build-fixes/updates for cygwin to accommodate
    configure-macro changes.</li>

    <li>updated configure macros:
      <ul>
        <li><code>CF_CC_ENV_FLAGS</code>, add check for
        preprocessor-options in <code>$CFLAGS</code>.</li>

        <li><code>CF_FUNC_GRANTPT</code>, amend the
        <code>posix_openpt</code> vs <code>grantpt</code> change to
        work with BSDs</li>

        <li><code>CF_GNU_SOURCE</code>, fixes a regression for
        Cygwin. The check for _DEFAULT_SOURCE should apply to
        "recent" Cygwin (since early 2016), and except for "NEWLIB"
        vs "GLIBC" in the test, acts the same if I pretend that
        "newlib" is the GNU C library. Without this, the check
        falls through to the _XOPEN_SOURCE test, which breaks the
        pseudoterminal checks for xterm.</li>

        <li><code>CF_LD_RPATH_OPT</code>, suppress check if
        <code>--disable-rpath</code> is given.</li>

        <li><code>CF_XOPEN_SOURCE</code>, add midnightbsd to
        special cases with freebsd</li>
      </ul>
    </li>

    <li>update config.guess, config.sub</li>
  </ul>

  <p><a id="t20180628" name="t20180628">2018/06/28</a> -</p>

  <ul>
    <li>modify configure script to avoid using OpenBSD's
    nonfunctional POSIX pseudoterminal interface.</li>

    <li>add null-pointer checks for all strings printed in trace
    calls.</li>

    <li>updated configure macros, deprecating use of
    <code>_GNU_SOURCE</code> symbol for
    <code>DEFAULT_SOURCE</code>, and preferring
    <code>man2html</code> over groff's html conversion.</li>

    <li>update config.guess, config.sub</li>
  </ul>

  <p><a id="t20160508" name="t20160508">2016/05/08</a> -</p>

  <ul>
    <li>adapt Solaris fix for C11 changes from xterm #325.</li>

    <li>modify <code>parseArgs</code> to check for a special case,
    e.g., from xterm, where a shell command that cannot be exec'd
    is passed as a single parameter. For that case, run the command
    via the shell.</li>

    <li>reset <code>IEXTEN</code> when turning off canonical mode,
    needed to make <code>lnext</code> control/V work consistently
    on BSD platforms (report/patch by Christian Weisgerber).</li>

    <li>updated configure macros:
      <dl>
        <dt>CF_FUNC_POLL</dt>

        <dd>add a fallback to checking with
        <code>posix_openpt()</code>, in case someone's running the
        configure script in batch mode.</dd>

        <dt>CF_LD_RPATH_OPT</dt>

        <dd>change FreeBSD to use <code>-Wl,-rpath</code> rather
        than <code>-rpath</code> option. According to FreeBSD
        #178732, either works since FreeBSD 4.x; however
        <code>scons</code> does not accept anything except the

    file.</li>

    <li>add "US-ASCII" for C/POSIX to the locale-charset
    table.</li>

    <li>add entries to the locale-charset table to correspond with

    also reported in Freedesktop #41857).</li>

    from <code>nl_langinfo(CODESET)</code> by mapping commonly used
    prefixes into the prefixes used by luit.</li>

    unneeded library dependencies, e.g., from fontenc's buggy
    package script.</li>

    <li>eliminate quoted- and duplicate-includes.</li>

    <li>make <code>-g0</code> and similar options actually work, by

    etc.</li>

    <li>add configure option <code>--enable-trace</code>.</li>

    GNU iconv, which is far more portable than fontenc.

        ISO-8859-x.</li>

    syntax no longer supported by bash.</li>

    <li>modify manpage to use "misc" category for the miscellaneous
    Linux manpages cited in the "SEE ALSO" section, prompted by
    xorg change for 1.1.0 version.
      <p>Aside from that (and some cosmetic changes to C source, as
      well as providing a different configure script), and omitting
      this change-log, the xorg 1.1.0 is the same as the <a href=
