version 2.2.12 release
* Session Management. AfterStep will utilize gnome-session for session
management if available. Several things needs to be manually adjusted for
full functionality :
1) go over list of autostart application files in /etc/xdg/autostart and for
those that you want started and have line OnlyShowIn= - add AfterStep to
the list of environments. One example is gnome-keyring* stuff -
by default it is only enabled in GNOME session.
2) if session takes a long time to close after Logout dialog was shown -
most likely culprit is the pulseaudio. You may need to get rid of it and
switch to more standard and stable ALSA.
3) It is recommended to uninstall zeitgeist daemon since its useless under
AfterStep anyway but wastes resources with its snooping activity.
4) gnome-session will save any app that support session mamgement at the end
of the session to be restarted the next time. Unless you run UBUNTU in
which case this functionality my be disabled in stock gnome-session. If
you want it back, then it is recommended that you build your own
gnome-session from sources. On the other hand if you do not want this
functionality, again, get gnome-session source and comment out contents of
maybe_load_saved_session_apps() function in gnome-session/gsm-session-fill.c.
5) If you find that your GTK apps look butt-ugly - its probably because gconfd
is not running. It is normally started by gnome-session, but bastardised
version of it that comes with Ubuntu does not do it for some reason.

pkgsrc changes:
---------------
* Add explicit dependency to textproc/ruby-asciidoctor since
GENERATE_MANPAGES is ON by default and the man pages are generated
if the tool is present.
* Improve the search of asciidoctor binary by including suffixed binaries
in case pkgtools/pkg_alternatives is not installed.
* Bump revision
0.9.2 -> 0.9.3
Fix RestartSystem()/Done() to correctly restart into other window managers
Add RoundedScreenCorners configuration
Changed default font size to 12px
Changed default scroll bar width/height to 16px
Changed default menu bar height to 20px
More accurate sizing & styling of window title bars & controls, scroll bars, and resize handle
0.9.1 -> 0.9.2
Change sprintf() & strcat() to snprintf()
Now it should be more obvious when a package needs it as a dependency,
as it will fail loudly if it isn't declared as a tool.
While here, some duplicate dependencies on itstool were removed from the
MATE packages
(Two of the three code changes had already been applied in pkgsrc.)

Maintenance release of pekwm with a bunch of bug fixes since 0.1.17. Notable changes include an updated default theme, CMake build system support and build fixes for more recent compilers.
Release 0.9.2 on 2021-02-17
---------------------------
* Client window titles (controlled by the theme attributes 'title_height',
'title_color', 'title_font')
* New command 'help' for live documentation on the object tree
* New 'watch' command that emits hooks when attribute values change.
* The 'lock_tag' attribute is now writable.
* New 'geometry' attribute for monitors.

space between the panel and the monitor edge and also panels between two
monitors.
- Correctly handling minimized clients when removing a tag.
- Preserve stacking order when changing the floating state of a tag
- Update frame objects correctly in the commands 'mirror' and 'rotate'
* New dependencies: xft, freetype
2020-05-22: Seventh public release 6.7 of portable cwm.
Changes made between OpenBSD 6.6 and 6.7
* Allowed cwm(1) configuration of window size based on percentage of
the master window during horizontal and vertical tiling actions.
* Allowed use of window-htile and window-vtile with the "empty" group
clients in cwm(1).
The latest macOS Big Sur 11.2.1 and Xcode 12.4 as of 2021-02-24 do not
provide 11.2 SDK. They provide 11.1 SDK instead. mk/platform/Darwin.mk has
workaround for this situation. So use the workaround directly.
OSX_SDK_PATH may be internal, however it is accessible over 5 years.
It may not be a big problem hopefully.
sdorfehs is a tiling window manager descended from ratpoison, which itself is
modeled after GNU Screen.
sdorfehs divides the screen into one or more frames, each only displaying
one window at a time but can cycle through all available windows (those
which are not being shown in another frame).
Like Screen, sdorfehs primarily uses prefixed/modal key bindings for most
actions.
sdorfehs's command mode is entered with a configurable keystroke
(Ctrl+a by default) which then allows a number of bindings accessible with just
a single keystroke or any other combination.
Special thanks to David H. Gutteridge for the patch and explanations.
