Ncurses (new curses) started as a freely distributable clone of SVr4
curses. It has outgrown the clone description, and now contains many
features which are not in SVr4 curses. Curses is a pun on the term
"cursor optimization". It is a library of functions that manage an
application's display on character-cell terminals.

This is an update to the latest major release with new features:

As we have already been using "ABI 6" for some time, this update remains
ABI compatible with our 5.9 packages.
