JWM v2.4 Release Notes
This is a collection of major changes between JWM v2.3 and JWM v2.4.
Version 2.4.0 was released 20211107.
New Features
* Mouse bindings are now configurable (issue #11).
* Added key bindings (send#) to send a window to a particular desktop (issue
#395).
* Added ~/.config/jwm/jwmrc as the new default location for per-user
configuration (issue #394).
* Maximized windows once again have borders and can be resized (issue #392).
* The placement of window buttons is now configurable (issue #19).
* Restored automatic tray "autohide" functionality using autohide="on" (issue
#398).
* Added support for CDATA to the XML parser (issue #344).
* Moved the group and list attributes to the TaskListStyle tag (issue #309).
* Added key bindings to resize a window from a specific corner or side (issue
#409).
* Add Type tag to Group (issue #453, patch from rdnvndr).
Configuration Changes
The following XSLT is available to update JWM v2.3 configuration files for use
with JWM v2.4: jwm-2.4.xslt.
To convert an existing v2.3 configuration file using xsltproc, run:
cp ~/.jwmrc ~/.jwmrc.old
xsltproc jwm-2.4.xslt ~/.jwmrc.old > ~/.jwmrc
If you have multiple configuration files, it may be necessary to apply the XSLT
to some or all of them depending on what configuration options are stored in
the file.
A summary of configuration changes follows.
* The group and list attributes have moved to the TaskListStyle tag.
See the configuration documentation for documentation on all configuration
options.
Bug Fixes
* Don't SetDefaultCursor in AddClientToWindow (issue #521).
* Use pango to address font fixes (issues #502, #498, and #337).
* Fix for large titles that are centered or right aligned (issue #479, patch
from rdnvndr).
* Fix tooltip delay (issue #431).
Updated Translations
* Portuguese (Hugo Carvalho)
* Portuguese Brazil (marcelo cripe)
* Turkish (Cihan Alkan)
* Spanish (PAblo Roberto Francisco Lezaeta Reyes)
* Danish (scootergrisen)
* Lithuanian (Moo)
• i3bar: fix crash with multiple monitors
• xmlto: fix broken .TH line by extending title length
• i3-msg: fix --raw short form (-r) in manpage
• libi3: add missing sys/stat.h header
• use getcwd(NULL, 0) instead of GNU extension get_current_dir_name()
Changes:
- Fixed ReadConfigFile() to prevent config command overlap collisions.
- Fixed SkipNonSpace() to consider new lines to be white space.
- Fixed handle_configure_request() to support moving windows.
- Added SwallowFocusClick configuration (default: disabled).
Released 2021-09-09 by Morgan Aldridge
Two long-awaited features have been added:
1. You can now use an “include” directive in your i3 config:
https://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html#include
2. You can now enable showing window icons in window titlebars:
https://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html#title_window_icon
Other changes:
• default config: use dex for XDG autostart
• docs/ipc: document scratchpad_state
• ipc: the GET_CONFIG request now returns all included files and their details
• i3-nagbar: position on focused monitor by default
• i3-nagbar: add option to position on primary monitor
• i3bar: use first bar config by default
• i3-dmenu-desktop: ignore duplicate files and directories (fixes crash on NixOS)
• i3-dump-log -f now uses UNIX sockets instead of pthreads. The UNIX socket approach
should be more reliable and also more portable.
• When clicking on a tab, focus its child (like when scrolling), or (if
already focused), focus the tab container (alternatingly).
• Implement the include config directive:
https://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html#include
• Implement optionally showing window icons in titlebar:
https://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html#title_window_icon
• Allow for_window to match against WM_CLIENT_MACHINE
• Add %machine placeholder (WM_CLIENT_MACHINE) to title_format
• 'move container|workspace to output': toggle a workspace (or container)
between multiple outputs when multiple output names specified.
• Add 'move container|workspace to output next'
• Add 'all' window matching criterion
• Acquire the WM_Sn selection when starting as required by ICCCM
• Add --replace command line argument to replace an existing WM
• Notify systemd when i3 is ready, allowing other services in a systemd user session
to use i3 as a dependency
shod has seen a major re-write and upstream has decided to provide a new release
version numbering.
Versions up to 0.5.0 are now archived in a different repository.
┌────────────────────────────┐
│ Changes in i3 v4.19 │
└────────────────────────────┘
• userguide: explain button6 and button7 (scroll wheel right/left)
• ipc: always include the marks property (even if empty)
• ipc: introduce GET_BINDING_STATE command
• ipc: clarify workspace name field semantics
• ipc: document parse_error COMMAND reply field
• i3bar: launch using exec to avoid leaving useless shell process
• i3bar: make dock client order deterministic (sorted by class/instance) as a
side effect, i3bars without an explicit bar-id will be sorted according
to their definition order in the config file
• i3bar: update config when necessary (reduces redraws on bar mode changes)
• i3bar: add coordinates relative to the current output in i3bar click events
• i3bar: add “nonprimary” output option
• i3bar: set WM_CLASS instance to bar id
• i3-input: add different exit codes for when i3-input fails
• i3-dmenu-desktop: Support symlinks in search path
• pod2html: render without stylesheet by default
• introduce “tiling_from” and ”floating_from” criteria
• mention rofi in default config file
• allow ppt values in move direction and move position commands
• allow matching on empty properties like class, title, etc.
Shod is an hybrid (tiling and floating) multimonitor X11 window manager.
Shod sets no keybindings; reads no configuration other than X resources;
and works only via mouse with a given key modifier (Alt by default), and
by responding to client messages with EWMH hints (so you must use wmctrl
to control shod).
NOTE: shod provides no keybindings, use sxhkd for binding keys.
WARNING: Shod is attempt of mine to write a Wm and better understand how
X11 works, Shod is only meant for me for educational purposes.
Shod is an experimental project, and should be used with caution.
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.
* Bug fixes:
- Correctly interpret _NET_WM_STRUT. This fixes panels that leave a bit of
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.
Change log:

based on a private patch from snow flurry, thx!
There have been a tonne of bug-fixes, and what's listed below are some
key-highlights. Please do read the full CHANGELOG in detail for more
information.
Breaking changes:
* Deprecate librplay support in FvwmEvent
* This therefore means librplay as a dependency is no longer required.
* documentation: remove docbook in favour of asciidoc (ThomasAdam)
* This therefore means that xsltproc as a dependency is no longer
required, but asciidoctor will be for compiling man pages.
* documentation: --enable-htmldoc has been removed -- generating HTML
documentation is longer possible.
Implemented enhancements:
* New Status command in JSON format (over a FIFO) for use with external
bars such as lemonbar
* Add expansion variables for a window's X/Y page
* Introduced a compat-wrapper for FvwmCommand written in Python3
Fixed bugs:
See the Full Changelog
mcwm is a minimalist window manager for the X Window System written from
scratch in C directly on top of XCB. It is a traditional floating window
manager with a lot of features but without the bloat.
In mcwm all functions, including move and resize, are available from the
keyboard but a pointing device can be used for move, resize and raise/lower.
Release 0.9.1 on 2020-12-28
---------------------------
* Client minimization (controlled by the attribute 'minimized' of every client)
* The 'index' attribute of tags is now writable. This allows adjusting the
order of existing tags.
* New child object 'focused_client' for each tag object.
* New child object 'focused_frame' for the tiling object of each tag object.
* New child object 'parent_frame' for each client providing the frame the client sits in
* New command 'mirror'
* New command 'apply_tmp_rule'
* The 'apply_rules' command now reports parse errors
* Reserve space for panels that do not set _NET_WM_STRUT e.g. conky windows
of type 'dock'.
* Only build json object doc if WITH_DOCUMENTATION is activated
* Bug fixes:
- When hiding windows, correctly set their WM_STATE to IconicState (we set
it to Withdrawn state before, which means "unmanaged" and thus is wrong).
This may require restarting pagers when upgrading hlwm live.
- Fix crash in 'split explode'
- 'split explode' preserves the window focus (as in v0.7.2 and before)
macOS. In exchange for avoiding the use of the bundled i386 binary blob,
this drops compatibility with older macOS (by requiring a newer API in
the system libXplugin). In case this had been building for anyone on
semi-recent macOS, bump PKGREVISION.
Addresses pkg/55880.
TinyWM is a tiny window manager created as an exercise in minimalism. It is
also maybe helpful in learning some of the very basics of creating a window
manager. It is only around 50 lines of C.
It lets you do four basic things:
- Move windows interactively with Alt+Button1 drag
- Resize windows interactively with Alt+Button3 drag
- Raise windows with Alt+F1
- Focus windows with the mouse pointer
# From 0.9.9 to 0.9.10
## Additions
- New node descriptor: `first_ancestor`.
- New node modifiers: `horizontal`, `vertical`.
## Changes
- The node descriptors `next` and `prev` might now return any node. The previous behavior can be emulated by appending `.!hidden.window`.
- The node descriptors `pointed`, `biggest` and `smallest` now return leaves (in particular `pointed` will now return the *id* of a pointed receptacle). The previous behavior can be emulated by appending `.window`.
- The *query* command now handles all the possible descriptor-free constraints (for example, `query -N -d .active` now works as expected).
- The rules can now match against the window's names (`WM_NAME`).
- The configuration script now receives an argument to indicate whether is was executed after a restart or not.
- The *intermediate consequences* passed to the external rules command are now in resolved form to avoid unwanted code execution.
This release addresses the following:
New Features:
Add support for infostore in EnvIsSet Test case #240 (ThomasAdam)
Add variable/parameter which indicates the state of the FVWM3 logging #239 (NsCDE)
Support for setting default mouse cursor on all FvwmScript widgets #222 (NsCDE)
Add support for triangle indicator in/out sub options #221 (NsCDE)
Add WindowName option to FvwmButtons #219 (NsCDE)
Build problems:
compilation fails on openbsd-current due to safemalloc.h (va_list) #231
"version of go" misinterpreted by configure script? #202
Unable to build 1.0, bson.h not found [FreeBSD 12.1] #200
Bug-fixes:
_NET_WM_STATE was not updated for maximized windows #203
EwmhBaseStruts calculations don't use monitor's #241
DesktopConfiguration global inherits behaviour from per-monitor mode #236
FvwmEvent: missing monitor\_focus event #228
perllib: doesn't understand MX_MONITOR_* events #226
FvwmButtons subpanels not popped out on primary monitor when desk is > 0 #224

EwmhBaseStruts missing screen info from manpage #208
EwmhBaseStrut: fix calculations for per-monitor #242 (ThomasAdam)
Fix window locations in Global mode #237 (ThomasAdam)
Release 0.9.0 on 2020-10-31
---------------------------
* When an application fails to focus itself (because
focus_stealing_prevention is active), then the window is marked as urgent.
* New optional argument for the 'split' command for splitting non-leaf frames
* Frame objects: the frame layout can be introspected via the 'tiling' object
present in each tag, e.g.: 'tags.focus.tiling'.
* New command 'foreach' for iterating over objects
* New attribute 'urgent_count' for tags, counting the number of urgent clients on a tag
* New rule consequence 'floatplacement' that updates the placement of floating
clients ('floatplacement=smart' for little overlap,
'floatplacement=center' for centering) or leaves the floating position as
is ('floatplacement=none')
* New rule condition 'pgid'
* New format specifier '%c' in the 'sprintf' command (useful in combination with 'foreach')
* The 'new_attr' command now also accepts an initial value
* React to a change of the 'floating_focused' attribute of the tag object
* New frame index character 'p' for accessing the parent frame
* Object tree documentation as a json file
* Bug fixes:
- Fix wrong behaviour in 'cycle_layout' in the case where the current layout
is not contained in the layout list passed to 'cycle_layout'.
- Fix handling of delta -1 in 'focus_monitor' and 'cycle_monitor'
- Fixed precision decimals in the layout tree (more reliable in- and output
of fractions in frame splits)
- Fixes in maximize.sh
Based on work by Dan Cîrnaț and myself in pkgsrc-wip.
Mutter is a window and compositing manager that displays and manages your

This was deleted a few years ago due to the gtk1 deprecation, but
removing its dependency on gtk1 is trivial and does not impact
its functionality.
I consider qvwm essential software for fun.
-
qvwm is a window manager for the X Window System which provides a user
experience very close to Windows 95/98. It is small and extremely fast.
Add xft2 as a recommended option, following the example of fluxbox.
While here, also make nls a recommended option, rather than being
unconditionally enabled.
Fvwm3 is a multiple large virtual desktop window manager, originally (a
looooong time ago!) derived from twm.
Fvwm3 is intended to have a small memory footprint but a rich feature set,
be extremely customizable and extendible, and have a high degree of Motif
mwm compatibility.

As of 1.24, MATE requires GNU-specific msgfmt features. meta-pkgs/mate/
Makefile.common r. 1.10 expressed this tool dependency using
USE_BUILTIN.gettext=no, but this exposed pkgsrc gettext-libs in the
build environment as well, which some MATE packages then linked
against, but gettext-libs didn't end up being declared as a run-time
dependency, so binary package installations were broken (with the
workaround of manually installing the undeclared gettext-libs
dependency). Express this dependency differently, so GNU msgfmt is
used as a tool without exposing pkgsrc gettext-libs.
(The pkgsrc tooling infrastruture could be altered to provide a
distinct "gmsgfmt" tool, same with "gxgettext", and perhaps others.
Here I'm just immediately concerned with fixing this packaging issue.)
Addresses PR pkg/55503 by Jay Patel.

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
