FrankenWM
)."monsterwm's bastard child" or "not the wm your desktop needs, but the one
it deserves".
FrankenWM is a dynamic tiling WM (comparable to dwm or Awesome), featuring the
v-stack, b-stack, grid, fibonacci, dualstack, equal and monocle layouts out of
the box. If you want to, you can add gaps between the windows as well.
It was once based on monsterwm but has undergone many greater changes including
adding pieces from other WMs (hence the name) and porting all sorts of stuff
from Xlib to XCB. Many of the original monsterwm patches have been ported as
well.
All settings must be set at compile time by editing `config.h` and it does not
feature a status bar (but supports leaving preconfigured space for one

This is a minor maintenance release. The only significant changes for
non-developers are bug fixes that correct interactions with the pop-up
windows of particular applications, and also fix startup notifications.
While updating this package, I've fixed SunOS builds as well.

issue 4: twm makes windows too wide

Release 0.8.2 on 2020-05-04
---------------------------
* Selection of empty frames by the mouse (by click or by hover if
focus_follows_mouse is enabled)
* The commands 'close_and_remove' / 'close_or_remove' act like 'close' for
floating clients
* The decoration window allows focusing, moving, and resizing the client
via the mouse (as known from standard floating window managers)
* Improved herbstclient tab completion for the fish shell
* Bug fixes:
- Fix a crash in the error handler when a invalid monitor name is
passed. (Affects list_padding move_monitor rename_monitor lock_tag
unlock_tag)
- Fix the type of WM_STATE
- The client attributes sizehints_tiling and sizehints_floating are now
writable
- Fix EWMH urgency change for clients without WM hints set
- Fix the exit code of the 'focus' command
Release 0.8.1 on 2020-04-21
---------------------------
* the frame index 'e' refers to the first empty frame (e.g. 'rule index=e' places
new windows in empty frames, if possible)
* new setting 'hide_covered_windows' to improve the appearance when used with
a compositor.
* resize floating windows with the same command ('resize') as in tiling mode
and thus the same keybindings as in tiling mode. Therefore, the
'fractiondelta' parameter to the 'resize' command is now optional.
* keybind now checks that the bound command exists.
* cycle_all (Alt-Tab) now also traverses floating clients
* new setting 'auto_detect_panels' controlling the panel detection algorithm.
* improved herbstclient tab completion for the fish shell
* Bug fixes:
- Handle the regular expression "" correctly, since the grammar of extended
regular expressions does not allow "".
- Error handling for the lack of xrandr
- Fixes to make it compile on other systems and architecture
Release 0.8.0 on 2020-04-09
---------------------------
* single window floating (every client has an attribute 'floating' which can
be set at run time and via the rule consequence 'floating=on')
* monitor detection via xrandr
* detection of external panels
* new command: apply_rules
* new command: export (convenience wrapper around setenv)
* new client attribute: keys_inactive (negation of keymask)
* new command: drag (initiates moving/resizing a window by mouse)
* if tags have been configured through EWMH before herbstluftwm starts (from
a previous running window manager), then herbstluftwm re-uses these tags
(start with --no-tag-import to disable this)
* The build system is now cmake. See the INSTALL file if you need to
compile herbstluftwm yourself.
* the 'remove' command now tries to preserve the focus and the client
arrangement. Intuitively speaking, 'remove' is undoing a frame split.
* Many boolean style settings were formerly of type int. Now, these are
boolean settings.
* The 'toggle' command only works for boolean settings. For the former
behavior for int-typed settings, use 'cycle_value'.
* Writing '%%' in the 'sprintf' format string now gives a literate '%', just
as printf. Formerly it stayed '%%'.
* The 'keybind' command now accepts all valid key symbols, even if they are
not present on the current keyboard layout at the time of setup.
* the rules are also applied to those clients that change their WM_CLASS
after being shown already.
* 'detect_monitors' has an additional '--list-all' parameter
* do not change the focus (for focus_follows_mouse=1) when an unmanaged
dialog (e.g. a rofi menu or a notification) closes.
* list_rules now prints regex-based rule conditions with '~' instead of '='
* new attributes on every monitor for pad_up pad_down pad_left pad_right
* new flag --exit-on-xerror (to be used in automated testing only)
* Formerly, double dots in object paths were allowed (similar to double
slashes in file paths in unix). Right now, they are only allowed at the end
(which is necessary for the tab-completion of attr):
- +monitors+ is valid
- +monitors.+ is valid
- +monitors..+ is valid
- +monitors.by-name.+ is valid
- +monitors..by-name.+ is *invalid*

Window Maker 0.95.9:
SwitchPanel is now more configurable: you can configure the switch panel icon size by setting the “SwitchPanelIconSize” option to your preferred value in ~/GNUstep/Defaults/WindowMaker. The font size used in this panel now is also sensible to changes in the system font.
New user configuration directory environment variable. In previous versions, the GNUstep directory used to store a user’s Window Maker configuration files was specified by the GNUSTEP_USER_ROOT environment variable, which defaulted to ~/GNUstep. However, this environment variable was deprecated in gnustep-make v2. Therefore, it has been replaced by the WMAKER_USER_ROOT environment variable.
libXmu is now an optional dependency.If the library is not found, compilation work, the only limitation will arise when trying to install the standard colormap on displays which are not TrueColor. Please note that if you have the library but not the headers, configure will still stop; there is no user option to explicitly disable the library use.
