- fix recursive redhat-build bug (fixes 577135)
- fix a memory leak in ToolWindow::windowAttributeChange.
- remove server grabs from the Image code. They prove to not be needed (they
no longer exist in the blackbox code.) And they cause the X server to lock
indefinately if you run 2 bbkeys on the same display, running the second
one from a terminal on the display.
- when we recieve a startup message from blackbox, clear out any leftover
windows in the window list. These are caused by the fact that on shutdown
of blackbox, if any windows are unmanaged after bbkeys, bbkeys doesn't get
notified of their destruction and so ends up with extra windows in its list.
- fix compiling issues under solaris. Thanks to grub on irc for use of his
time for testing.
- get rid of work-around for pre-0.60 blackbox, which fixes bug that let you
move the toolbar around with bbkeys.
- fix window focus tracking bug. Fixes bug where you could manipulate the
last focused window on a nono-visible workspace.
- fix multi-head bug in main.cc. We now putenv("DISPLAY=...") so that
applications launched will be launched on the correct display. Thanks to
Greg Gilbert for his patch!
- fix bug in main.cc (| rather than ||). Thanks to Roman Neuhauser!
- fix bug in bbkeys.hh--increasing MaxInstructions to 100 for cthulhain
- fix in bbkeys.cc -- XUngrabKey changed to use same call to find what
screen we're on as the XGrabKey call
- fix in bbkeys.cc -- doing "xterm -e sh -c $command" rather than "xterm -e
$command". Thanks to Magnus Solvang for the bug report. Also, changing
hideous char* and snprintf() to ostrstream, YAY!!
(the first major release from the new maintainer, IIRC). Many new goodies,
bugfixes and overall improvements. This closes PR pkg/18131.
Changes from 0.62.1 to 0.65.0:
- added Taiwan Chinese (zh_TW), Hungarian (hu_HU), Latvian (lv_LV),
Korean (ko_KR), Norwegian (no_NO), Polish (pl_PL), Romanian (ro_RO) and
Ukrainian (uk_UA) nls files and updated most of the others.
- removed the Estonian (ee_ET) and Turkish (tr_TR) locales due to their
being heavily out of date and unmaintained
- remove slit and netwm as compile time options
- strip much of BaseDisplay's original functionality and move it to the
blackbox class.
- huge amounts of internal cleanups
- added emacs local variables to each file that prevent the addition of tabs
- added a Util.cc file which contains useful functions with no obvious home.
- move code over to the STL
- removed several unused variables and otherwise reduced the memory usage
of the objects in Blackbox. For the record the binary is roughly 100k
larger than 0.62.0 and that is mostly due to the STL but there is also a
fair bit of new code. However for the most part blackbox runs faster and
is still one of the leanest window managers out there today.
- bsetroot now sets _XROOTPMAP_ID, so pseudo transparent apps will be happy
- beginnings of a strut implementation. toolbar and slit are removed from
the available screen area if 'full maximize' is not set
- XReparentWindow sends an UnmapNotify to the window manager however
in certain cases the window is already unmapped so the window manager
never gets the event and the unmapNotify event is where reparentNotify was
handled. Added a reparentNotifyEvent handler in the BlackboxWindow class
and a new case in the Blackbox class's process_event function.
- no more blackbox->grab/ungrab calls everywhere
- compression of motion and expose
- Now we have one function which turns ~/ into /home/user/. This is now
called everywhere this expansion should be done. Even added this to the
resource.menu_file so now the menu file may be specified as
~/blackbox_menu.
- added a TimerQueue which is a priority_queue with the ability to release
items it contains before they reach the top of the queue. Also added a
TimerQueueManager protocol class which BaseDisplay now inherits from.
- BTimer now defaults to NOT recurring. Most of the timers in blackbox were
one shots so I saw little benefit in defaulting to repeating timers.
- update transient handling, should solve issues with apps like acroread.
added a getTransientInfo() method of the BlackboxWindow class which
handles checking the transient state in X and setting the appropriate
variables on the window. To attack the infinite loops this
function ensures that client.transient != this and we check for loops
of the form A -> B -> C -> A. The new transient code also allows for one
window to have multiple transients so applications like xmms and web
browsers are better behaved.
- even better ICCCM support and focus handling
- wmswallow works
- fix for clock clipping in the toolbar
- better support for non decorated windows and toggling decor
- the geometry window shown when moving or resizing a window now handles the
parentrelative setting better. parentrelative support has been improved
for all of the other widgets as well.
- better window group handling
- improved edge snap support (still no window to window snapping)
- changing preferences no longer leads to windows being raised
- the window's "send to" menu ignores the current workspace, which is a
better UI approach
- new placeWindow algorithm. Blows the old one out of the water. Not only
is it faster but it is also cleaner code too (-: Went from number 5 in
the profiling results to under 30. Image rendering is now the slowest
part of managing of new windows.
Because of the new code layout, support is now there for new and
different layout options but this will wait for after 0.65.0.
- smart window placement ignores shaded windows now
- new option in the Config menu which allows Scroll Lock to disable
Blackbox's keybindings.
* The commands Maximize, Resize and ResizeMove can be used on icons
as it was in 2.2.x.
* Fixed hilighting of menu items with HGradient and VGradient
MenuFace. Reduced flickering with these options.

is lowered.

buildlink2.mk files back into the main trunk. This provides sufficient
buildlink2 infrastructure to start merging other packages from the
buildlink2 branch that have already been converted to use the buildlink2
framework.

Matchbox is a GPL'd X11 window manager designed for computers with
little screen real estate, limited input devices and low CPU/storage
resources. Touchscreen PDA's, phones, set top boxes and even watches
fit well into this category. Children or people with disability's may
also find matchbox useful on desktop machines, due to the way it
simplify's window operation.
Matchbox is small, fast, flexible, dependant only on xlib and very
usable.
The Distribution also include various themes and utility programs,
including a dock (or tray) and various simple dock apps useful for
PDA's.
Remove `-p' from mkdir arguments, it is already part of ${MKDIR}.
While here substitute a couple of ${PREFIX} by `%D' in
`@exec ${MKDIR} ...' lines and add a couple of missing `%D' in such lines too!

IcePref is a graphical configuration utility for IceWM. It is written
in python and uses the Gtk toolkit via the PyGTK bindings. It is
capable of configuring all of the settings contained in the
'preferences' file. More features are forthcoming.
Improvements and compatibility issues:
--------------------------------------
* Setup "fvwm" and "fvwm-root" name symlinks for the executable and
the man page when installing, see INSTALL.fvwm.
* New FvwmIconMan configuration syntax now conforms to the syntax of
other modules, see the man page.
* New WindowList option CurrentAtEnd.
* Always display the current desk number in the FvwmPager window title.
* A small security patch regarding TMPDIR.
* fvwm-menu-headlines: updated the site data, added a configurable timeout on
socket reading (20 sec) to avoid fvwm hanging, new --icon-error option.
* Fonts in double quotes now should work in module configurations.

BBrun is a run utility for BlackBox which can be run in the slit
or in withdrawn mode so that it can be bound to a keystroke from bbkeys.
It also features a history list of the most recent commands.
NetBSD Packages Collection.
Metacity is not a meta-City as in an urban center, but rather
Meta-ness as in the state of being meta. i.e. metacity : meta as
opacity : opaque. Also it may have something to do with the Meta key
on UNIX keyboards.
- Boring window manager for the adult in you. Many window managers
are like Marshmallow Froot Loops; Metacity is like Cheerios.
- Uses GTK+ 2.0 for drawing window frames. This means colors, fonts,
etc. come from GTK+ theme.
- Has a simple theme system and a couple of extra themes come with it.
Change themes via gconf-editor or gconftool:
gconftool-2 --type=string --set /apps/metacity/general/theme Crux
- Change number of workspaces via gconf-editor or gconftool:
gconftool-2 --type=int --set /apps/metacity/general/num_workspaces 5
Can also change workspaces from GNOME 2 pager.
- Change focus mode:
gconftool-2 --type=string --set /apps/metacity/general/focus_mode mouse
