I am pleased to announce a new version of GNU guile-ncurses.
guile-ncurses is a library for the creation of text user interfaces
in the GNU Guile dialect of the Scheme programming language.  It is
based on the ncurses project's curses, panel, form, and menu libraries.

The web page for GNU guile-ncurses is 
http://www.gnu.org/software/guile-ncurses/

Its canonical download location is http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/guile-ncurses/

Or you can download it from a mirror at 
http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/guile-ncurses/

The NEWS for this release is

Release 1.3
- Reworked support for is-pad? and is-subwin?
  - configure tests for presence of is_pad and is_subwin in ncurses
  - is-pad? and is-subwin? now return #t the ncurses library has no
    way to give information if a window is a pad or subwin
  - new feature test constants %is-pad-broken and %is-subwin-broken
    give information if is-pad? and is-subwin? always return true
- The tests now only run if an xterm terminfo file is avaiable.
- Tests that gave different results when detached from a terminal
  were disabled.
- Disable experimental termios library by default.
- Fix memory double-free error in form library.

  'extra' library
