Changes since 1.4.8
* Incompatible changes
** command `compat' and the various def* compat commands were removed
** `msgwait', `rudeness', `startupmessage', `warp' are now variables
The msgwait, rudeness, startup_message and warp commands will stay
around for a few releases. Upgrade your config file now!
* Feature/misc changes
** XRandR support
ratpoison now uses XRandR to detect screens additions/removals at
runtime. The Xinerama support has been removed.
** the focus* commands can be used to navigate across screens
** window completion match by substring, case-insensitive
** new variable `framemsgwait'
Timeout (in seconds) for the `Current frame' message window.
If set to -1, no message is shown.
** better `select' error handling
** the command `set' with no argument dumps a list of all variables/values
** unknown commands are now logged as warnings to stdout too
Should help debugging a config file.
** various cleanups and minor bugfixes
* Packaging changes
** ratpoison now depends on libXrandr instead of libXinerama
** ratpoison doesn't link against libhistory by default any more
Use ./configure --enable-history to force the use of said library.
** no ChangeLog file
Please use the git repository instead. Savannah offers a web interface.
** no more timestamps in compiled code
Should help reproducible builds.
