* Re-enabled the use of ApplyOn = "Workspace" for autoproperties.
* Fixed ops distributing uneven pixels in tab calculation that caused
pixels missing from the title.
* Updated menu rendering to properly honour padding and justification.
* Added Last parameter to GotoWorkspace and SendToWorkspace actions
* Fixed bug in parsing of # and // comments not parsing the content
of the line.
* Switch position of row/col placement.
* Updated and applied patch from koniu{@}sheket{.}org to add OffsetX
and OffsetY options to smart placement to pad with x/y pixels.
* Remove max allowed WidthMin value check.
* Fixed dangling reference crash in configuration parser, triggered by
the parse_key_value feature of the CfgParser. Closing #84
* Removed size limiting in resize.
[0.99.24]
* Remove unused def_cmap field from ScreenInfo struct.
* Added -nosoliddrag option (thanks to Erik Auerswald).
* Rewrite grab_keysym() macro as a function.
[0.99.25]
* Regrab keys on receipt of MappingNotify event
* Make spawn() use find_current_screen()
* Fix build errors/warnings when VWM not defined
* Track vdesk separately on each managed screen
* Remove is_sticky tests when only need to check vdesk
* Only snap against clients on the same screen
* Fix configure requests containing sibling information
* Move unused variable workarounds after declarations
* Flesh out some switches with default cases
* Remove redundant call to XShapeSelectInput()
* Move grab_keysym() to main.c, make static
* Make recalculate_sweep() static
* Wrap client_update_current into select_client
* Restructure client_update_current()
* Wrap fetching of mwm_hints property into init_geometry
* Omit some unneeded code when VWM not defined
EWMH atoms mostly, also some keymap defines.
* Code tidy
Dead declarations removed from evilwm.h. Some reordering of other
declarations. Nothing that should affect anything.
* Use XQueryPointer to find pointer root instead of trying to track it
* Macro-ise get_mouse_position()
* Declare some of opt_* as static in main.c
* Don't track bounding_shaped
This is never used outside set_shape and I'm not convinced that
XShapeQueryExtents refers to the old values.
* Fix foolish lookup of screen number where it's already known
* Expose events not needed on frame windows
* Grab buttons when making client instead of every enter event
* Refactored handle_key_event()
PKGLOCALEDIR and which install their locale files directly under

fluxconf is a tiny GTK based configuration tool for the fluxbox window manager.
It allows basic manipulation of the window manager behaviour:
o Slit configuration
o Window placement
o Focus model
o Workspace configuration
o Keys configuration
fluxter is a newer incarnation of bbpager, which is like the name suggests a
pager tool for Blackbox.
The major changes to bbpager are:
o Accesses fluxbox configuration files, e.g. in ~/.fluxbox, rather than in
blackbox directories.
o Default styles come from the fluxbox configuration. Without
customization it will track the look of the current theme.
o The configuration files have been renamed to fluxter.bb (used in a
fluxbox environment) and fluxter.nobb (used in a non-fluxbox
environment). These files should go in fluxbox configuration
directories, such as ~/.fluxbox.
o The X resource entries in the configuration files use fluxter as a label,
rather than bbpager.
o Per-workspace wallpaper changing is supported by the addition of
per-workspace rootCommand configuration entries. For example:
fluxter.workspace0.rootCommand: Esetroot /usr/share/pixmaps/bg1.png
fluxter.workspace1.rootCommand: Esetroot /usr/share/pixmaps/bg2.png
fluxter.workspace2.rootCommand: Esetroot /usr/share/pixmaps/bg3.png
patch-aa is no longer necessary: rpws is now a perl script
* Changes since 1.4.0-beta4
- new parameters in frame dumps
:screenh and :screenw specify the size of the screen the frame was on.
- New window format characters
- info takes optional argument and new infofmt setting
- aspect ratio hint honoured
- new hook deletewindow
- _net_wm_pid property supported
- set warp change: the mouse position relative to the window is now used
- new command redo
- new editor bindings C-m and C-h
Remove patch-a{b,d} as they are already applied upstream
Main changelog entries:
in 0.9.15.1:
- Removed the green background on styles that are not using the new background
option.
- Bug fixes (compile errors, crash and placement config)
in 0.9.15:
* Added styleOverlay resource
- session.styleOverlay: ~/.fluxbox/overlay
* New theme item: background.*
* Added new resize mode: Center
* Resources changes for titlebar:
- The titlebar is now configured by setting:
* session.screen.titlebar.left
* session.screen.titlebar.right
* nls changes: added ko_KR, updated zh_CN, nb_NO
* Many bug fixes
RECOMMENDED is removed. It becomes ABI_DEPENDS.
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED.foo becomes BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).

2.13.2
==
This release just contains a merge of all the changes on the
constraints_experiments branch.
Thanks to Havoc Pennington for reviewing the gargantuan patch and
suggesting lots of little fixes for making it better, to Rob Adams and
Soeren Sandmann for grilling me on how some of the difficult internals work
-- allowing me to improve the documentation, to Olav Vitters for finding an
easy-to-fix crasher bug in early testing and for repeatedly extending my
deadline for switching from working on Metacity to Bugzilla, to Ray Strode
for finding two crashers and fixing one of them in early testing, to Bryan
Clark for usability advice, to Davyd Madeley and Christian Kellner for
testing Xinerama stuff, to Sebastien Bacher for packaging an early version
and finding some obscure bugs (that I unfortunately still can't duplicate
and will probably still need to fix once I can),
Bugs fixed:
unfiled - constraints.c is overly complicated[1]
unfiled - constraints.c is not robust when all constraints cannot
simultaneously be met (constraints need to be prioritized)
unfiled - keep-titlebar-onscreen constraint is decoration unaware (since
get_outermost_onscreen_positions() forgets to include
decorations)
unfiled - keyboard snap-moving and snap-resizing snap to hidden edges
86644 - resize should have a shift option like move does
109553 - gravity w/ simultaneous move & resize doesn't work
113601 - maximize vertical and horizontal should toggle and be
constrained
122196 - windows show up under vertical panels
122670 - jerky/random resizing of window via keyboard[2]
124582 - keyboard and mouse snap-resizing and snap-moving erroneously
moves the window multidimensionally
136307 - don't allow apps to resize themselves off the screen (*cough*
filechooser *cough*)
142016, 143784 - windows should not span multiple xineramas unless
placed there by the user
143145 - clamp new windows to screensize and force them onscreen, if
they'll fit
144126 - Handle pathological strut lists sanely[3]
149867 - fixed aspect ratio windows are difficult to resize[4]
152898 - make screen edges consistent; allow easy slamming of windows
into the left, right, and bottom edges of the screen too.
154706 - bouncing weirdness at screen edge with keyboard moving or
resizing
156699 - avoid struts when placing windows, if possible (nasty a11y
blocker)
302456 - dragging offscreen too restrictive
304857 - wireframe moving off the top of the screen is misleading
308521 - make uni-directional resizing easier with alt-middle-drag and
prevent the occasional super annoying resize-the-wrong-side(s)
behavior
312007 - snap-resize moves windows with a minimum size constraint
312104 - resizing the top of a window can cause the bottom to grow
319351 - don't instantly snap on mouse-move-snapping, remove
braindeadedness of having order of releasing shift and
releasing button press matter so much
[1] fixed in my opinion, anyway.
[2] Actually, it's not totally fixed--it's just annoying
instead of almost completely unusable. Matthias had a
suggestion that may fix the remainder of the problems (see
http://tinyurl.com/bwzuu).
[3] This bug was originally about not-quite-so-pathological
cases but was left open for the worse cases. The code from
the branch handles the remainder of the cases mentioned in
this bug.
[4] Actually, although it's far better there's still some minor
issues left: a slight drift that's only noticeable after
lots of resizing, and potential problems with partially
onscreen constraints due to not clearing any
fixed_directions flags (aspect ratio windows get resized in
both directions and thus aren't fixed in one of them)
New feature:
81704 - edge resistance for user move and resize operations; in
particular 3 different kinds of resistance are implemented:
Pixel-Distance: window movement is resisted when it aligns with an
edge unless the movement is greater than a threshold number of
pixels
Timeout: window movement past an edge is prevented until a certain
amount of time has elapsed during the operation since the first
request to move it past that edge
Keyboard-Buildup: when moving or resizing with the keyboard, once a
window is aligned with a certain edge it cannot move past until the
correct direction has been pressed enough times (e.g. 2 or 3 times)
Major code changes:
- constraints.c has been rewritten; very few lines of code from the old
version remain. There is a comment near the top of the function
explaining the basics of how the new framework works. A more detailed
explanation can be found in doc/how-constraints-works.txt
- edge-resistance.[ch] are new files implementing edge-resistance.
- boxes.[ch] are new files containing low-level error-prone functions
used heavily in constraints.c and edge-resistance.c, among various
places throughout the code. testboxes.c contains a thorough testsuite
for the boxes.[ch] functions compiled into a program, testboxes.
- meta_window_move_resize_internal() *must* be told the gravity of the
associated operation (if it's just a move operation, the gravity will
be ignored, but for resize and move+resize the correct value is needed)
- the craziness of different values that
meta_window_move_resize_internal() accepts has been documented in a
large comment at the beginning of the function. It may be possible to
clean this up some, but until then things will remain as they were
before--caller beware.
- screen and xinerama usable areas (i.e. places not covered by
e.g. panels) are cached in the workspace now, as are the screen and
xinerama edges. These get updated with the workarea in
src/workspace.c:ensure_work_areas_validated()

Chances are high that Perl is then also installed. Bumped PKGREVISION.
Fixed pkglint warnings.
makeinfo if no native makeinfo executable exists. Honor TEXINFO_REQD
when determining whether the native makeinfo can be used.
* Remove USE_MAKEINFO and replace it with USE_TOOLS+=makeinfo.
* Get rid of all the "split" argument deduction for makeinfo since
the PLIST module already handles varying numbers of split info files
correctly.
NOTE: Platforms that have "makeinfo" in the base system should check
that the makeinfo entries of pkgsrc/mk/tools.${OPSYS}.mk are
correct.
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
Changes:
10-Feb-2006 (Release 0.9.7.10)
~~~~~~~~~~~
* GIMP paint tool slowing down the system fixed:
culprit was title string and icon name book keeping -
support for icon name was removed (commented out for now),
as OroboROX doesn't do anything with that info now and probably
in the future (ROX-Filer's pinboard handles that)
26-Jan-2006
~~~~~~~~~~~
* remove X11 session management code: was useless, as ROX isn't prepared for,
and most probably terribly broken, definitely completely untested.
Take maintainership
* Changes since 1.4.0-beta2
** meta takes a key argument
This can be used to stuff keys.
* Changes since 1.4.0-beta1
** RATPOISON environment variable
RATPOISON is set to the location of the ratpoison binary. This is
useful for scripts.
* Changes since 1.3.0
** command arguments can be wrapped in double quotes.
To include a space in a command argument, wrap the argument with ".
** New command undefinekey
not passing a 3rd argument to definekey and bind no longer unbind the
key. You must use undefinekey and unbind now.
** ratpoison -c prints errors to stderr
You can now capture errors and output seperately depending on whether
its printed to stderr or stdout.
** the mouse warp feature is now turned off by default
to turn it back on, run 'warp on'.
** version now displays the date and time
** new command, sselect
sselect lets you jump to an X11 screen by number.
** configure script warns about missing history lib
Rather than error out, now, ratpoison will just be built without history.
** new commands ratwarp, ratrelwarp, and ratclick
** more new commands
inext, iprev, iother, cnext, cprev, cother, prompt, dedicate,
describekey, focusprev, sdump, sfdump.
** yet two more new commands: putsel, getsel
putsel puts the specified text into the X11 selection so other clients
can yank it. getsel returns the current selection.
Most noticeable changes (there's more than one year worth of them,
anyway):
* Potentially blocking status meters are now in a separate ion-statusd
program. Please write your additional status meters that do not monitor
the state of Ion itself for ion-statusd (and contribute them in the
Ion3 scripts repository at http://iki.fi/tuomov/repos/ion-scripts-3/).
For help on writing such status meters, see e.g. source for statusd_load
in ext_statusbar/ion-statusd.
* Line editor now supports history search; Control+Up/Down only scrolls
through history entries with matching initial part.
* Arbitrary winprop matching criteria is supported. Lua scripts have
access to X properties.
* So-called "placeholders". With the help of these the positions of
full-screen windows are remembered in their original frames, and don't
just get inserted after currently active window when returning from
full-screen mode. Under a session manager placeholders are also used
to remember the original order of windows.
* Experimental auto-show-completions support, which is also on by default
now. In this mode the Tab key can be used to cycle forward through the
completions, and Shift+Tab backwards. Modify the settings seen in the
new mod_query.lua to get normal Tab-completion, or change the completion
delay.
1.2.25: 2006-02-03

- Mave ancestors come along with the transient when moving the window from
one workspace to another (Björn) [#314977]

fix the pick-a-new-window-to-focus algorithm in order to not select
windows that aren't showing (Björn) [#170475]

without affecting packages that are currently using it.
Packages which previously didn't set BUILDLINK_DEPMETHOD to neither "full" nor
"build" now set it to "full", but should be checked whether they really need it
(comment added). Packages which previously set it to "build" now don't set it
anymore.
Ok by jlam, wiz.

Info window movement made a bit more sensible.
Don't remove clients from within error handler, instead flag for
removal.
While removing client, only reparent to root if window is withdrawn
or window manager is shutting down (fixes xpdf-in-firefox bug).
Window close key with shift held will XKillClient().
LD: Replace logic to decide if we have a shaped window (cribbed from
fvwm-2.5.10).
LD: Warp mouse pointer to a visible point in shaped windows.

It is more consistent with the tex.buildlink3.mk name. Also, if a package
really needs latex, it just has to set TEX_ACCEPTED to latex distributions
altough today, all TEX_ACCEPTED possibilities are latex distributions
VTWM is a X11 window manager based on TWM. It adds support for a
virtual desktop, processing configuration files using m4, support for
sound effects using rplay, and 3D buttons, frames, titlebars, etc.
VTWM also has support for regular expressions in the configuration
files.

Changes:
- many actions were removed to only have those available that are
absolutely necessary.
- ~/.wmii-3 is the new configuration directory.

border colour (removed approximately 150 lines of code).
- changed wmibar and wmimenu to test some prototypical behavior for
the upcoming 9P versions of those tools (removed about 150 lines of code).

window manager improved 2 (wmii) is an improved, modularized and
lightweight X11 window manager which supports tabbed, tiled and
conventional window management through layouts.
wmii consists of components that are independent processes and
communicate via a socket-based virtual filesystem which is oriented on
the "everything is a file" paradigm of the plan9 operating system.
The core distribution of wmii contains the window manager itself, a
master file system routing utility (wmifs), a generic bar (wmibar), a
shortcut handler (wmikeys), and a generic interaction menu (wmimenu)
beside several tiny utilities like wmir, wmiplumb, and wmiwarp.
Changes:
* integrated changes from Dushkin (thanks!):
* scrolling the mouse wheel in the taskbar now task switches
* integrated changes from Antti Nykänen (thanks!):
* fixed a crash that occurred on the BSDs (and presumably on other
systems without /proc/self/exe)
* integrated changes from Gregor Imboden (thanks!):
* fixed a crash that ocurrred when there are no focused windows
and alt + F12 is pressed was fixed
* events are always replayed rather than sometimes being eaten
* new windows are no longer given focus

cwm is a window manager for X11. It was originally inspired by evilwm,
but was rewritten from scratch due to limitations in the evilwm codebase.
The from-scratch rewrite borrowed some code from 9wm. cwm contains many
new features which all concentrate on the efficiency and transparency of
window management. cwm also aims to maintain the most simplest and
pleasant aesthetic.
as the INSTALL and DEINSTALL scripts no longer distinguish between
the two types of files. Drop SUPPORT_FILES{,_PERMS} and modify the
packages in pkgsrc accordingly.
file's sole purpose was to provide a dependency on pkg-config and set
some environment variables. Instead, turn pkg-config into a "tool"
in the tools framework, where the pkg-config wrapper automatically
adds PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR to the environment before invoking the real
pkg-config.
For all package Makefiles that included pkg-config/buildlink3.mk, remove
that inclusion and replace it with USE_TOOLS+=pkg-config.
around at either build-time or at run-time is:
USE_TOOLS+= perl # build-time
USE_TOOLS+= perl:run # run-time
Also remove some places where perl5/buildlink3.mk was being included
by a package Makefile, but all that the package wanted was the Perl

The IceWM Control Center allows you to run various tools for
configuring IceWM's options.
It contains menu/toolbar editor, winoptions editor, keys editor,
themes switcher and some other tools. It supports themes, so you can add
new (or replace existing) tools and images.

USE_TOOLS and any of "autoconf", "autoconf213", "automake" or
"automake14". Also, we don't need to call the auto* tools via
${ACLOCAL}, ${AUTOCONF}, etc., since the tools framework takes care
to symlink the correct tool to the correct name, so we can just use
aclocal, autoconf, etc.
Several changes are involved since they are all interrelated. These
changes affect about 1000 files.
The first major change is rewriting bsd.builtin.mk as well as all of
the builtin.mk files to follow the new example in bsd.builtin.mk.
The loop to include all of the builtin.mk files needed by the package
is moved from bsd.builtin.mk and into bsd.buildlink3.mk. bsd.builtin.mk
is now included by each of the individual builtin.mk files and provides
some common logic for all of the builtin.mk files. Currently, this
includes the computation for whether the native or pkgsrc version of
the package is preferred. This causes USE_BUILTIN.* to be correctly
set when one builtin.mk file includes another.
The second major change is teach the builtin.mk files to consider
files under ${LOCALBASE} to be from pkgsrc-controlled packages. Most
of the builtin.mk files test for the presence of built-in software by
checking for the existence of certain files, e.g. <pthread.h>, and we
now assume that if that file is under ${LOCALBASE}, then it must be
from pkgsrc. This modification is a nod toward LOCALBASE=/usr. The
exceptions to this new check are the X11 distribution packages, which
are handled specially as noted below.
The third major change is providing builtin.mk and version.mk files
for each of the X11 distribution packages in pkgsrc. The builtin.mk
file can detect whether the native X11 distribution is the same as
the one provided by pkgsrc, and the version.mk file computes the
version of the X11 distribution package, whether it's built-in or not.
The fourth major change is that the buildlink3.mk files for X11 packages
that install parts which are part of X11 distribution packages, e.g.
Xpm, Xcursor, etc., now use imake to query the X11 distribution for
whether the software is already provided by the X11 distribution.
This is more accurate than grepping for a symbol name in the imake
config files. Using imake required sprinkling various builtin-imake.mk
helper files into pkgsrc directories. These files are used as input
to imake since imake can't use stdin for that purpose.
The fifth major change is in how packages note that they use X11.
Instead of setting USE_X11, package Makefiles should now include
x11.buildlink3.mk instead. This causes the X11 package buildlink3
and builtin logic to be executed at the correct place for buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that previously set USE_X11, and fixes packages
that relied on buildlink3.mk files to implicitly note that X11 is
needed. Package buildlink3.mk should also include x11.buildlink3.mk
when linking against the package libraries requires also linking
against the X11 libraries. Where it was obvious, redundant inclusions
of x11.buildlink3.mk have been removed.

Provided in PR 29965 by Antoine Reilles, modified slighlty by myself to
look in pkgsrc and X11R6 directories when looking for window managers.
selectwm is a small application (using GTK+) which lets you select your
window manager. It looks for a file named .selectwmrc in the user's
directory which contains a list of window managers.
When you start X it should show a list which lets you choose your
window manager (by double clicking on it with the mouse or with the
arrow keys and the return or space key)
To use selectwm, replace the call to your window manager in your
.xinitrc or .xsession configuration file by a call to selectwm, e.g.:
...
# set a solid black background
xsetroot -solid black
# start selectwm
selectwm

* Changes since 1.3.0-rc2-beta2
** new format option %f
This options displays the frame number the window is in or a space if
it is not in a window.
** Super modifier changed from S to s. S is now the shift modifier
* Changes since 1.3.0-rc2-beta1
** New command 'set'
set replaces the def* commands. For example 'defwinliststyle column'
is now 'set winliststyle column'.
The old def* commands now alias to their 'set' version.
* Changes since 1.3.0-rc1
** Top level keymap
The keymap named 'top' is now a top level keymap. No prefix key need
be pressed to access its bindings. In fact, the prefix key is now a
binding in the 'top' keymap.
** hsplit and vsplit switched
To be compatible with emacs these command names have been
switched. The bindings are the same but custom scripts and aliases
will have to make the switch.
** new command defframesels
Allow you to customize the keys used to select frames with fselect.
** Xinerama support
Each xinerama screen is handled as X11 screens normally are. The only
different is that each xinerama screen can select from all the
managed windows.
** focuslast finds the last focused frame among all screens
** fselect selects from frames in all screens
** new command-line option --file
Used to specify an alternate configuration file.
* Changes since 1.3.0-beta3
** new configure option --disable-history
** new commands readkey, newkmap, delkmap, definekey
These commands operate on the new feature: keymaps. They allow you to
have nested keymaps.
* Changes since 1.3.0-beta2
** new command gdelete
Delete a group.
** contrib/allwindows.sh script
A script that lists all groups and the windows in each group.
* Changes since 1.2.2
** Workspace script
rpws is an installed script that adds workspaces to ratpoison. Look at
contrib/rpws for instructions on how to use it.
** new commands addhook and remhook
There are now hooks for various operations.
** Completions
You can now type Tab and get completions on window names, group names,
and colon commands.
** Line editing capabilities
You can now go forward a word, backward a char, delete a word, etc.
** New commands gnewbg, gselect, groups, gmove, and gmerge
These commands allow further manipulation of window groups.
** shell commands return status
If a command the user executed (with the exec command) returns with a
non-zero exit status, the command and exit status are reported in a
message.
** new commands gnew, gnext, gprev
Window are now part of groups. There can be more than one group.
General:
