What's new in GOK 1.0.5?
* Respond to more children-changed:add events, specifically, rebuild
the UI component list if children are added to ROLE_FRAME objects,
ROLE_ROOT_PANE objects, or ROLE_PANEL objects (in addition to the
roles already listened to, for instance ROLE_HTML_CONTAINER).
* Handle the somewhat aberrant menus that some gtk+ apps exhibit if
their UIs were created with glade - namely, menus may have
ROLE_MENU_ITEM instead of ROLE_MENU. If a ROLE_MENU_ITEM has
children, then we now treat it as though it had ROLE_MENU.
What's new in GOK 1.0.4?
* Fix for #301377, we can now handle actionable table cells even if
they don't have unique names.
* We now grab focus if the actionable item is a button;
this improves behavior with the gtk file selector.
* New languages: "eu" (Basque), Iñaki Larrañaga.
"rw" (Rwandan), Steve Murphy.
* Fix for #172111.
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.
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.

What's new in GOK 1.0.1?
* Fix for #168093 GOK now implements some libwnck API locally to avoid
build compatibility issues with newly changed libwnck API.
* Fix for #168281 Memory allocation issues fixed.
* Fix for #168405 Fixed unwanted activation in dwell mode when the core pointer
happens to enter a GOK window without purposeful user action.
What's new in GOK 1.0.0?
* With version 1.0.0 GOK has reached production quality release. This version
is very similar to 0.12.4. We have updated the README file and made sure
all the appropriate files have been marked for translation.
What's new in GOK 0.12.4?
* Fix for rfe #166552 - GOK now autodetects XInput events from unexpected
devices, and allows user to select the new XInput device. GOK also
attempts to work around corepointer conflicts by swapping the corepointer
while it's running and restoring it on exit.
This gives a great deal more insurance against core-pointer conflicts,
USB-mouse renumbering due to hot-swapping, and other HID configuration
issues.
* Bugfix for #166779 - we've fixed the regression in 'Mouse' functions.
* Bugfix for #159163 (Harry Lu) - we now successfully find more table-cell
children, because we search recursively for names.
What's new in GOK 0.12.3?
* Four new translatable strings, for warning dialogs and alerts.
* Fixes for bugs #151606, #149266, #165828, #134348.
* Branch immediately to a UI Grab keyboard when an ALERT dialog is posted.
What's new in GOK 0.12.1?
* Fix for bugs 155473 (Bill Haneman), 160233 (Danilo Segan),
151831 (David Bolter), 159932, 160717, 154926, 160357.
* New help manual from Irene Ryan.
What's new in GOK 0.12.0?
* bug fixes and a sparse NEWS section.
* Changed some terminology in UI to be consistent, i.e.
"Select" and "Activate" mean pretty much the same thing across
access methods now, 'select' means highlight, 'activate' means
"virtual-click the GOK button".
What's new in GOK 0.11.12?
* Bug fixes including: 155182 (double actions)
What's new in GOK 0.11.10/0.11.11 ?
* Fix regression caused by bugfix 151417; this release
should be used instead of 0.11.9.
What's new in GOK 0.11.9 ?
* Expose multiple actions for UI components which have more than one
possible user action available. Fixes bug #151417.
* Improved table and list behavior: Bugfixes for #153130, #152788,
#153389.
* Rewrite of online help (thanks to Irene Ryan!)
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
* Fixed broken .m4 macro (bugzilla 152086)
* Fixes for bug #144435, #147633, #142831, and #150260.
Non-XKB compose keyboards are working better now with
word completion, and at login with a working 'Menus' key.
* Much improved table handling: many table and list items
that were previously 'inert' when activated from GOK now
work correctly. (#117567, #129450)
* GOK now allows direct interaction with the gtk+-2.4 file selector.
(#136065).
* Fixed a regression in the Settings dialog
when used with HighContrastInverse themes. (#138683)
* Fixed modifier/shift behavior in "alphabetic" keyboards that
aren't created from the XKB keyboard description.
* Improved support for Mozilla-1.6. (This will be visible to end-users
when mozilla changes are pushed out to the main 1.6 tree)
(#135314)

in schemas).

The GNOME On-Screen Keyboard (GOK) is an accessability interface
that gives you control of your system without needing a keyboard.
The GOK makes available a hierarchical button system that enables
keyboardless entry of common accelerators, and contains a
clickable keyboard that sports suggested autocompletion of many
common words, and even some commands. The GOK will provide an
alternative interface to common commands and functions within
applications that utilize the AT SPI.
The GOK is is designed to be usable by many alternative input
methods, i.e. not a common keyboard and mouse combination.
