2006-08-31 (2.8.6pre.1)
2006-08-31 (2.8.6dev.19)
* add --enable-widec configure option to allow building lynx without wide
  character support using ncursesw, to accommodate users with older releases
  of ncurses (request by Emanuele Giaquinta) -TD
* add -stderr option to write error messages when doing a -dump -or -source.
  Normally these are written to the status line but that does not exist when
  dumping to standard output (Debian #375736) -TD
* fixes for GNU TLS configuration (also addresses Debian #231609) -TG, TH
* add check for failure to write to disk, e.g., on disk full, and report
  error condition via HTAlert() -PG
* updated README.sslcerts -Stef Caunter
* add example of -source in manpage to explain how HREF's are constructed
  (Debian #347989) -TD
* fixes to make redraw_part_of_line() to work with double-width characters.
  This is used in color-style to repaint an inactive hyperlink -TD
* ensure the number of "extra" blanks in a line is greater than zero before
  attempting to perform text-justification (Debian #363538) -TD
* improve wrapping logic in LYwaddnstr() by using a derived window.  This fixes
  a problem with wrapping of multibyte character links -TD
* repair fix for Debian #171312 by ensuring that it is only invoked if the
  document was not being reloaded, or popped off the history stack (report
  by TH) -TD
* add error-reporting for the PRETTYSRC_SPEC data in lynx.cfg
  (prompted by discussion by OpenMacNews and Thorsten Glaser) -TD
* add a carriage-return in stop_curses() to work around PDCurses leaving the
  cursor position other places than lower-level when stopping curses (report
  by DK) -TD
* add an explicit wmove() in display_line() to accommodate some wide-character
  pages which are not handled well by the nested-table logic, resulting in
  unexpected wrapping (report by Dan Jacobson) -TD
* modify limit for CDK double-byte characters in display_line() to accommodate
  a test-case rightSideEdgeTest.html provided by TH -TD
* add a workaround in LYStrings.c myGetChar() for PDCurses, which may return an
  ERR value which is not -1 (reports by DK, William McBrine) -TD
* remove ifdef from 2.8.2dev.14 which omitted bindtextdomain() call from DJGPP
  NLS configuration -DK
* modify autoconf macro AM_PATH_PROG_WITH_TEST to account for executable suffix
  in win32 environment -DK
* correct a mistyped parameter to CreateThread() (report by DK) -TD
* do not use LIBOBJS symbol directly in configure script except to support
  AC_REPLACE_FUNCS, since the autoconf macros dealing with that symbol changed
  incompatibly in autoconf 2.54 (report by DK) -TD
* fixes to work with BeOS 5.0 -Nigel Horne
* use portable TXT_R rather than "rt" for popen() mode in clip_grab() (reported
  by Antonio Maria Borneo) -TD
* modify makeutcb.c to avoid compile-time dependency upon gettext, in case it
  is used in cross-compiling -TD
* modify expression for ws_read_per_sec in ws_netread() to avoid potential
  divide-by-zero on a network error
  (reported by David Potter) -Takeshi Hataguchi, -TD
* modify fix for Debian #335593 to ensure that only image maps for the current
  page are listed (report by DK) -TD
* correct URL for HTML'ized description of all settings in lynx.cfg (report
  by DK) -TD
* use configure macro CF_SIGWINCH to work around special case on Mac OS X
  which leaves SIGWINCH undefined -TD
* add configure options --with-cfg-file and --with-lss-file to allow one to
  specify the names and paths of the default configuration and color-style
  files -TD   
* change configure script --enable-color-style so it is enabled by default 
  (prompted by request by Jason Spiro) -TD
* add COLOR_STYLE setting to lynx.cfg -TD
* change default initialization of color-style code when no lss file is given
  to simulate the non-color-style code.  There are some visual differences,
  e.g., links that contain a mixture of styles will display with mixed colors,
  but overall the visual effect matches the non-color-style code well enough
  to change the default configuration.  cf: 2000-07-16 (2.8.4dev.5) -TD
* fix a sign-extension in alignment case-statement in split_line() which could
  cause a large indent for lines which are wider than the display (Debian
  #360832, #372670) -TD
* fix ifdef's in LYOptions.c to make --disable-menu-options work (report by
  PW) -TD
