in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)

* The option CurrentGlobalPageAnyDesk was accidentally named
CurrentGlobbalPageAnyDesk before.
* Fixed a problem with fvwm startup and shutdown when the pointer
was grabbed by another application.

See http://securitytracker.com/alerts/2004/Jan/1008781.html
* Security fixes in
fvwm-menu-directory (BugTraq id 9161)
fvwm_make_directory_menu.sh
fvwm_make_browse_menu.sh
* The "Visible" condition does no longer select windows on
different desks.
* Fixed sending M_NEW_PAGE packets to the modules if the page did
not change.
* With the styles StartsOnPage, SkipMapping and UsePPosition,
windows that request a specific position are still placed on the
given page.
* It is now possible to suppress title action or title completely
in menus created by fvwm-menu-directory.
* Added support for new BBC headlines in fvwm-menu-headlines, this
replaces the old BBC-Worlds and BBC-SciTech headlines.
* Bug fixes
* All single letter variables are deprecated now; new variables:
$[w.id], $[w.name], $[w.iconname], $[w.class], $[w.resource],
$[desk.n], $[version.num], $[version.info], $[version.line],
$[desk.pagesx], $[desk.pagesy]
* The NoWarp menu position hint option works with root menus too.
* WindowListFunc is executed now within a window context, so
a prefix "WindowId $0" is not needed in its definition anymore
and it is advised to remove it in user configs.
* FvwmEvent now executes all window related events within a window
context, so PassId is not needed anymore, and all prefixes
"WindowId $0" may be removed in user event handlers.
fvwm2 changelog says they did this to make gmplayer realize it was not
running interactively (ie, its stdin was not a tty), but that means
that all things get executed with stdin closed. That's not a very
good security posture. Some things can get confused or do wrong
things if stdin is closed when they start.
* Fix for gmplayer launched by fvwm. Close stdin on Exec so the
exec'd process knows its not running interactively.
* Windows using the WindowListSkip style do not appear in the
FvwmTaskBar at random.

ChangeBackColor FvwmScript options.

specifies it explicitly.

FvwmIconMan man page. It was accidentally named ShowOnlyIconic
before.

restart.

assumed to be 100 pixels instead of 100 percents.

restarting.

the desktop.
* FvwmIconMan displays windows correctly that were iconified and
then moved to another page.
* Icon titles for windows with an icon position hint no longer
appear at random places.
* Fvwm no longer displays two icon pictures when switching from
NoIconOverride to IconOverride with windows that provide their
own icon window.
* The Current, All, Pick, ThisWindow and PointerWindow commands
work on shaded windows too.
* Fixed a problem stacking iconified transients.
* No more flickering when raising transients.
* Fixed a number of problems with window stacking, some new in
2.4.10 or later, some older problems that have been around for a
long time.
* Windows starting lowered or on any layer other than the default
layer are displayed at the right place in FvwmPager.
* Bindings with the "A"ny context can not be overridden by Gnome
panel or OpenOffice.
* Fixed drawing problems with TiledPixmap and Solid MenuFaces which

command.
* No more flickering when a transient overlapping its parent window
is lowered.
* Fixed hilighting of unfocused windows.

Improvements and compatibility issues:
--------------------------------------
* Setup "fvwm" and "fvwm-root" name symlinks for the executable and

work if you have that in /etc/mk.conf.
Also changce --with-iconpath to --with-imagepath, so the default pixmap
and bitmap path is now correct again. That changed some versions ago.
Fvwm 2.4.7 is a maintenance release for 2.4.6 that fixes a number
of minor or rare problems. System administrators are strongly
encouraged to move to 2.4.6 or 2.4.7 from any earlier 2.4.x release.
Changes:
* Fixed parsing of WindowList with conditions and a position at
the same time that was broken in 2.4.6.

StickyIcon style was ignored).
* Fixed config.h warnings with some compilers introduced in 2.4.6.
* Fixed icon titles being raised when they should not be.

slow opaque window movement and resizing that was not encountered in
the 2.2.x releases. If you do not use opaque window movement or resizing
and did not encounter any of the bugs described below you do not need
to upgrade. System administrators are strongly encouraged to move to
2.4.6 from any earlier 2.4.x release.
