conspy-1.17 (unreleased)
  Bug: -g/--geometry now applies the requested geometry instead of
       printing the version and exiting.
       Closes: https://sourceforge.net/p/conspy/tickets/9/
  Bug: Reconstruct the console geometry algebraically from the vcsa
       buffer length, supporting consoles larger than 1023x511
       (e.g. 4K headless VTs); restore the terminal before exiting
       when the geometry cannot be determined.
       Closes: https://sourceforge.net/p/conspy/tickets/10/
  New: Document the CAP_SYS_ADMIN requirement for TIOCSTI keystroke
       injection (Linux 6.2+); print a helpful hint when the ioctl
       fails with EPERM.
       Closes: https://sourceforge.net/p/conspy/tickets/11/
  Bug: Flush line_buf when full to prevent a stack buffer overflow
       on terminals wider than 256 columns (e.g. HiDPI/4K displays)
       when the spied console has long single-attribute runs.
  Bug: Correctly detect read(2) errors on 64-bit systems by comparing
       against (size_t)-1 instead of ~0U.
  Bug: Cast to size_t inside VIDBUF_SIZE to avoid int overflow before
       promotion when computing buffer sizes for large geometries.
  Bug: Treat empty virtual-console arguments consistently between the
       /dev/vcsa and /dev/vcc/a code paths.
  Bug: Zero file descriptors after closing in cleanup() so a second
       cleanup() call (e.g. from a signal racing normal exit) does
       not double-close a recycled fd.

       was wrong nonetheless.
  Bug: Close and re-open the destination tty every time a key is pressed.
       This will (hopefully) fix errors that occasionally occur when the
       user logs in.
  New: Now handles devfs device names (/dev/ttyX --> /dev/vc/X, and
       /dev/vcsaX --> /dev/vcc/aX).
