+2.21 Dynamic driver support in Windows
+
+An interface based on the ltdl library function calls was established
+which allows to open and close dynamic link libraries (DLL) during
+run-time and call functions from these libraries. As a consequence
+drivers can now be compiled into single DLLs separate from the core
+plplot DLL also in Windows. The cmake option ENABLE_DYNDRIVERS is now
+ON by default for Windows if a shared plplot library is built.
