+Major new features
+------------------
+
+- The SCREEN and WINDOW structures are now opaque.  11671880e2
+  3259719b37
+
+- The WA_ flags are now distinct,  in builds with 64-bit chtypes and
+  attr_ts (the default).  This led to considerable documentation
+  changes and an attempt to make the distinction between WA_ macros
+  (for use with wattr_t) and A_ macros (for use with chtype) clearer.
+  Most implementations of curses have wattr_t == chtype,  including
+  PDCurses* and ncurses,  but you can't really rely on it.
+  78658c94cd

+- KEY_MAX was increased to reserve some key codes for future use.
