- Convert to new options framework
- Reset PORTREVISION in slave port
- Trim Makefile headers
PR: ports/172421
Submitted by: Chris Petrik <c.petrik.sosa@gmail.com> (maintainer)
New features and highlights:
Left Half / Right Half Maximize.
Maximus: tiled maximization. Maximizes a window such that it occupies the
largest area without overlapping others.
New mouse-resizing functionality. Windows can now be resized vertically
(horizontally) using MOD+Wheel (CTRL+Wheel).
History and TAB completion in dialogs. To use this new functionality in
your old WMRootMenu, replace %a by %A in the relevant entry. It will
look like this (Run..., SHEXEC, "%A(Run, Type command:)"). Or use
wmgenmenu to generate a new menu.
Bouncing appicon effect.
New applications (wmgenmenu and wmmenugen) to generate the root menu
automatically by looking which applications you have on your $PATH.
Translations to German, Spanish and French of menus generated by
wmgenmenu.
Improved dockapp recognition.
And many trivial things which reduce little annoyances one might have.
For example, an option was added to control whether or not Window Maker
should do automatic workspace switching to satisfy a focus request from
a window located in another workspace.
Added keyboard shortcut to uncover/cover the dock.
Mac OS X-style window cycling.
Preliminary XRandR support (needs a bit more work to be bug-free).
Many other bug fixes.
For the ports:
* Remove patches that have been adopted upstream or otherwise made
obsolete
* Remove the OPTIONS, and enable all features
* Improve PREFIX-safety
* Otherwise simplify the windowmaker port
* Make libwraster a proper slave port
It contains several bug fixes, especially for the new alt-tab code.
1. Adopt this port, at least for the time being. I use it every day,
and follow the wm-user list so I'm probably qualified.
2. Update the descriptions of the OPTIONS.
3. Restore the knob for KDE, and add knobs for XINERAMA and the
additional LINGUAS files. These, and the XKB_STATUS knobs are all
off by default, but on for the PACKAGE_BUILDING case. I borrowed
this concept from the fluxbox port.
4. Add a knob for the experimental virtual desktop code, off by default.
The window maker folks warn that this is still experimental, so users
shouldn't wander into it by mistake.
5. Instead of bumping the SHLIB version number to 5, set it back to 4.
The window maker folks use N.N.N for their libwraster version string,
and their version for the 0.80.2 version of window maker was 2.3.0.
Thus, our previous version number of 4 was already bogus, so keep it
bogus even though they've bumped their version to 3.N.N. The new lib
is forward compatible for apps compiled with old library (I've tested
many of them), and this "fixes" all the ports that depend on libwraster.
6. Make the locale files hidden under the LINGUAS knob conditional
in the plist.
This release adds many new features, including font anti-aliasing.
1. Update LIB_DEPENDS to include Xft
2. Modernize USE_LIBTOOL
3. Hermes is no longer relevant
4. Update man page list and pkg-plist for new version
