pkgsrc-wip, as the program has changed a lot. So:
AfterStep is a window manager for the Unix X Window System. Based on the
look and feel of the NeXTStep interface, it provides end users with a
consistent, clean, and elegant desktop.
Some of the distinguishing features of AfterStep compared to other window
managers are its low usage of resources, stability and configurability.
Added DefaultGeometry option to database. That should allow to place
window with specifyed geometry when no USPosition was requested,
instead of dragging it around. Useful for things like Netscape.
Example:
Style "*escape*" DefaultGeometry 800x600+10-100
Afterstep-1.8.10 added "Xinerama" support (whatever that is) which we
have to disable in "configure" to build, and multi-head support -- which
is untested on NetBSD.
Follows is the complete ChangeLog since 1.8.9:
1.8.10 patch 1 (sasha+Geoff Burling+Jan Fedak)
o Numerous man page and usage fixes by Geoff Burling.
o Fixed bug in DefaultGeometry handling where check for USPosition/Size
should have been negated.
o Fixed compilation bug in lib/parse.c
o Fixed minor typho in afterstep man page.
o Debugged background setting on multihead config. It apperas that
asetroot cannot be run with -l if it is named other then asetroot.
Otherwise background selection from the menu does not work.
o Updated Clean to use ProcessModuleArgs. Added global var display_name
that is set to --display argument value or env var $DISPLAY 's value.
MOst modules must be updated to remove var with the same name from
main().
o Applied patch from Jan Fedak to add startup geometry to database
parameters.
o Applied patch from Jan Fedak to fix hotkeys in menus.
o Applied patch to get AfterStep to change Icon when Title is changing.
New feel option - FollowTitleChanges in feel has to be used to enable
this feature.
o Fixed Tile's -h handling.
o added support for maximization to not exceed screen size, while
working with xinerama.
o man pages fixes.
o Fixed socket/pipes reading loops to not cause 100% CPU utilization
under CYGWIN and in some cases even on Unix.
o Fixed Menus pointer location handling to use coordinates from events
and not abuse XQueryPointer. Otherwise menus were behaving strange
whenever events were late due to one reason or others.
1.8.9 patch 1 (sasha)
o Fix X libraries order, to have Xext preceed X11 - causes problems on
some Solaris systems.
o fixed two warnings related to time.h
o commented out dependency checking to avoid problems for users with old
compilers. It is not needed in stable series anyways.
o Added functionality to WindowsDesk function. If second argument is
10000 then first is relative desk number, instead of exact.
o Implemented Xinerama support. When window is initially placed - it
will be appropriately moved to not appear in between monitors, unless
user requested geometry explicetely.
o When Xinerama is active, and asetroot is requested to scale or pad
background image to the screen size it will use size of the first head
( the one with origin of 0,0 ).
o Implemented separate Feel, Look, Background and Init/Restart functions
for different screens in multihead config with no Xinerama.
o We now read $TMPDIR in order to locate /tmp directory, and falling back
to /tmp if envvar is not set.
o somewhat fixed Align and Pad fields in the Asetroot config parsing.
Extract from ChangeLog:
o installastheme.pl now uses the first screen depth reported by xdpyinfo
instead of the last; this fixes problems with the look not updating on
XFree86 4.x (allanon)
o removed reference to xiterm from Wharf config file; wharf now tries to
load aterm, and then xterm if that fails (allanon)
o fix to mystyle drawing as applied to empty menu drawing
o removed config reading from the pipe - was causing some compile time
problems and really was never needed.
