contrib/bsddialog: Import version 0.3
New features overview:
 * Unicode. User interface handles multi-column characters. API can
   handle char* like a multibyte character string. Internally wide
   characters are used for keyboard input, to adapt word wrapping and
   dynamic text auto-sizing for multi-column characters.
 * Forms refactoring. Complete rewrite deleting libformw dependency.
 * Theme. New utility options to save and load custom theme at run-time.
 * TUI navigation. Added keys to navigate input components. Changed
   default focus behavior of input dialogs to be LGPL-dialog-like; a new
   option can set the previous whiptail-like behavior.

See /usr/src/contrib/bsddialog/CHANGELOG '2022-08-29 Version 0.3'
for more detailed information.

FreeBSD Source:

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.

FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree. See build(7), config(8), FreeBSD handbook on building userland, and Handbook for kernels for more information, including setting make(1) variables.
