Release-0 1 10
The most noticable change in this release is the new default theme. Many thanks
to Adriano Foschi for sharing his great work with us.
As usual we have some bugfixes as listed below. There aren't that many code
changes this time to allow pekwm to stabilise again after the rather unlucky
0.1.9 release.

NEWS pekwm-0.1.9a
=================
alas, we missed two rather critical bugs in the 0.1.9 release. We decided to
make a new release 0.1.9a that fixes the "lower" action and a crash related
to the search dialogue. You can download the release as usual from
http://www.pekwm.org or use git to fetch it.
NEWS pekwm-0.1.9
================
Another maintenance release with both bug fixes and feature
enhancements. For pekwm-0.1.9 both default configuration and the
documentation has been updated to be more useful by default and to
reveal more configuration options, it might be worth having a look at
the default configuration if you upgrade from a previous version.
What also might be worth having a look at is the added contrib folder
with scripts and other useful things that is not included in the "main"
distribution due to dependency issues.
Bugs fixed:
* #13, One-click menu access and selection doesn't work. Add the
following to the Mouse section in the main configuration file to
enable:
Select = "Motion MotionPressed"
Enter = "ButtonPress MotionPressed"
* #20, Search dialog for finding clients. Run ShowSearchDialog and
start typing, a list of matching clients should be displayed.
* #47, Tab completion for CmdDialog. Activate with Complete and
CompleteAbort actions. Currently only includes command completion.
Look in default configuration for an example.
* #75, Dynamic menus inside dynamic menus. Reported by Krister
Svanlund
* #80, CMDDIALOG theme structure appears to be ignored now. Now both
CmdDialog and InputDialog are valid names for decorating CmdDialog
window.
* #81, Configuration uses system level config on first run and not
user configuartion.
* #82, Workspace indicator doesn't show up when workspace is
switched by a pager or other program
* #84, Unable to make mplayer window fullscreen when
FullscreenDetect=True. Reported and fixed by Vladimir A. Pavlov
* #88, TitleRules does not apply on pekwm generated menus. Reported
and fixed by Matt Hayes
* #96, Properly include cstdio to fix compilation errors with
gcc-4.4. Reported and fixed by Daniel Moerner
* #104, ButtonRelease events should check actual area beneath them
for context. Reported by Walther.
* #119, Harbour can "float away" when components get resized.
Walther.
* Fix re-loading of dynamic menus, caching caused menus not to
reload.
Compatibility fixes:
* #72, Work on EWMH support. Support for the following hints has
been added: _NET_DESKTOP_GEOMETRY, _NET_WORKAREA,
_NET_WM_ICON_NAME, _NET_WM_VISIBLE_ICON_NAME.
Configuration changes:
* #86, Icon rendering in menus is now optional. In the Menu section
of the main configuration DisplayIcons option has been introduced,
setting it to false disables menu icons.
* #98, Configurable icons in root menu. Reported by Krister
Svanlund.
* #103, Template entries with a "name" cannot be replaced. Template
overriding is now valid in mouse, keys and autoproperties.
Reported by Walther.
* #109, Environment variables should be set for window menus. Now
$CLIENT_PID and $CLIENT_WINDOW is available in dynamic menu
scripts. Reported by Matt Hayes
* #110, ShowStatusWindowCenteredOnRoot option introduced. When True
old status window behavior is used, when set to False (default
value) the status window is displayed centered on the current
window.
* #122, Setting icon limitations depending on menu. Example in the
default configuration file.
* #XX, Default configuration for window types has been updated with
saner defaults.
* #XX, Make templates available in autoproperties only with require
syntax. In order to support having templates overwriting in
autoproperties file a Require section was added just as in the
theme file. To enable templates overwriting and set up a single
property using it add this to your autoproperties file:
Require {
Templates = "True"
}
Property = "name,class,role,title,apply on" {
Sticky = "True"
}
Theme changes
* #91, Renamed Hoover to Hover. Hoover is still a valid name.
