Release notes:
Bugfixes:
* serialize con_id with %p in run_binding() (For FreeBSD)
* ignore InputHint when not in WM_HINTS (fixes e.g. mupdf focus)
* disable physically disconnect RandR outputs
* initialize workspace rect to the output's upon creation
* userguide: quoted strings need to be used, escaping isn’t possible
* mkdirp: do not throw an error if directory exists (fixes layout loss for
in-place restarts)
* i3bar: fix freeing static strings
Version 1.1.1, Mon Jul 13 2015
* Revert client lowering behaviour from 1.1.0. Also fixes a build error
when virtual desktops are disabled.
* Change default to not warp pointer.
* Don't automatically focus notification windows.
* Don't automatically focus dock windows.
* Changes since 1.4.7
This is mostly a bugfix release.
** fix cmd_sfdump with multiple screens
Broken since last release, from Joshua Leners.
** respect --enable-history=no
From Jeroen Roovers (jer@gentoo).
** fix for sloppy.c
The ugly sloppy.c had "a bug". It may be fixed now.
** README improvements
From Jeff Abrahamson.
* Changes since 1.4.6
** More fixes and code cleanup.
** UTF-8 editing support in the input bar
** get rid of "XGetWMName failed" spam on stderr
Introduced in the previous release, sorry!
** groups can now be renumbered (`gnumber')
** contrib/rpdate.sh, fancy calendar shell script to use instead of `time'
** fix `meta', which was sending garbage and made firefox unusable
** handle errors about missing config files
- ratpoison -f missing-config-file -> error
- unreadable ~/.ratpoisonrc file -> warning
** respect --sysconfdir for the global ratpoisonrc file
Rather than a hardcoded /etc/ratpoisonrc location.
** rpws gains a new `current' command (prints the current workspace)
** new manpage, mdoc(7) formatted
** X socket closed before spawning processes
Let's save those precious file descriptors.
** DWIM windows/groups names matching
Window and group names are first looked up for exact match; in last
resort a fuzzy match is attempted.
** try to cope with unset/empty HOME env. variable
** ratpoison.el is now installed at the proper location
ie. in $prefix/share/emacs/site-lisp/
** ratpoison now restricts permissions on your history file
* Changes since 1.4.5
** *Lots* of reliability fixes in ratpoison itself
Please check out the ChangeLog for more details.
** Build process cleanup
e.g. detection of getline() was fixed, build is ok with old gcc's (2.95)
** ratpoison -c now reports errors ($? != 0)
** UTF-8 text is now printed correctly
Both with and without Xft support.
** contrib/ cleanup
Scripts should be more portable, ruby bindings work with newer ruby versions.
** New newwindow and titlechanged hooks
** Functionality was added to rpws
It can now move windows to other workspaces; workspaces can be dumped and
restored.
Highlights include:
* Travis continuous integration
* Better lua autodetection (thanks to Nikolay Orlyuk)
* Various code consistency changes
* Fixing p2 variable scopes in xkbevents handler (thanks to Jon Canning)
* Fixing resizing of dock windows managed by mod_statusbar (thanks
to Edward J. Schwartz)
A fast floating WM, with the particularity of having 2 borders,
written over the XCB library and derived from mcwm written by
Michael Cardell. In 2bWM everything is accessible from the keyboard
but a pointing device can be used for move, resize and raise/lower.
* Added various new abilities to If action, including the <query> tag,
matching class, name, role and window type.
* Added ForEach action.
* Restore the <center> option for window placement.
* New GrowToFill action.
* Updated Portuguese and Polish translations.
* New Galician translation.
* Added strict option to ToggleShowDesktop action.
* Speed optimization in rendering code.
* New <position> tag for ShowMenu action allows placing menus other
than at the mouse cursor.
* Fix some corner cases of relative position to work correctly.
* Allow specifying multiple mousebinds in one tag as we already do
for keybinds (separated by spaces, as "W-Return M-S-F3" for example).
* Added option rebindOnMappingNotify option, on by default, which
controls if we update binds when the keyboard layout changes at runtime.
* The resize action now only considers the part of the client that is onscreen
for purposes of picking an action to perform.
* Make desktop actions non-interactive (means you can have more actions bound
to a key after them, and the dialog disappears on a timer instead of when
releasing the modifier keys).
* obxprop is now not pathologically slow when printing very long arrays.
* Fix menu accelerator underlines sometimes not showing up.
* Fix so you can click menu entries before the menuHideDelay expires if it's
a new click.
* Don't readd the X event fd to the poll set every time we reconfigure.
* Fix some specialized button bitmaps not loading from the correct files.
(toggled + pressed or hover would just be the base toggled image).
* Various small bugfixes.
Changes mentioned in the release notes:
* Cope with non-null-terminated x class properties.
* Get workspace name when renaming current workspace (fixes crash).
* Use a reasonable default sep_block_width if a separator_symbol is given.
* Remove windows from the save set when unmapping.

This is based on a huge amount of work by the NetBSDfr team and Youri Mouton,
who takes over as MAINTAINER, and has been tested by Youri on a large number
of platforms prior to commit. A massive thanks to them. Any issues with the
import are mine alone as the committer-by-proxy.
Alan Coopersmith (5):
configure: Drop AM_MAINTAINER_MODE
autogen.sh: Honor NOCONFIGURE=1
Only use results from GetWindowProperty if it returned success
Remove custom version of system(3c) for Solaris
twm 1.0.9
Gaetan Nadon (1):
config: replace deprecated use of AC_OUTPUT with AC_CONFIG_FILES
Laurent Carlier (1):
Update manpage with the proper location of system.twmrc file
Remove do-install and use post-install for the files not
installed by the install from the package.
