CHANGES:
## 0.12 (December 14, 2015)
### Breaking Changes
* `XMonad.Actions.UpdatePointer.updatePointer` arguments were
changed. This allows including aspects of both of the
`TowardsCentre` and `Relative` methods. To keep the same behavior,
replace the entry in the left column with the entry on the right:
| < 0.12 | >= 0.12 |
|-------------------------------------|----------------------------------|
| `updatePointer Nearest` | `updatePointer (0.5, 0.5) (1,1)` |
| `updatePointer (Relative x y)` | `updatePointer (x,y) (1,1)` |
| `updatePointer (TowardsCentre x y)` | `updatePointer (0.5,0.5) (x,y)` |
### New Modules
* `XMonad.Actions.AfterDrag`
Perform an action after the current mouse drag is completed.
* `XMonad.Actions.DynamicProjects`
Imbues workspaces with additional features so they can be treated
as individual project areas.
* `XMonad.Actions.LinkWorkspaces`
Provides bindings to add and delete links between workspaces. It
is aimed at providing useful links between workspaces in a
multihead setup. Linked workspaces are viewed at the same time.
* `XMonad.Config.Bepo`
This module fixes some of the keybindings for the francophone
among you who use a BEPO keyboard layout. Based on
`XMonad.Config.Azerty`
* `XMonad.Config.Dmwit`
Daniel Wagner's configuration.
* `XMonad.Config.Mate`
This module provides a config suitable for use with the MATE
desktop environment.
* `XMonad.Config.Prime`
A draft of a brand new config syntax for xmonad.
* `XMonad.Hooks.DynamicProperty`
Module to apply a `ManageHook` to an already-mapped window when a
property changes. This would commonly be used to match browser
windows by title, since the final title will only be set after (a)
the window is mapped, (b) its document has been loaded, (c) all
load-time scripts have run.
* `XMonad.Hooks.ManageDebug`
A `manageHook` and associated `logHook` for debugging `ManageHook`s.
Simplest usage: wrap your xmonad config in the `debugManageHook`
combinator. Or use `debugManageHookOn` for a triggerable version,
specifying the triggering key sequence in `XMonad.Util.EZConfig`
syntax. Or use the individual hooks in whatever way you see fit.
* `XMonad.Hooks.WallpaperSetter`
Log hook which changes the wallpapers depending on visible
workspaces.
* `XMonad.Hooks.WorkspaceHistory`
Keeps track of workspace viewing order.
* `XMonad.Layout.AvoidFloats`
Find a maximum empty rectangle around floating windows and use
that area to display non-floating windows.
* `XMonad.Layout.BinarySpacePartition`
Layout where new windows will split the focused window in half,
based off of BSPWM.
* `XMonad.Layout.Dwindle`
Three layouts: The first, `Spiral`, is a reimplementation of
`XMonad.Layout.Spiral.spiral` with, at least to me, more intuitive
semantics. The second, `Dwindle`, is inspired by a similar layout
in awesome and produces the same sequence of decreasing window
sizes as Spiral but pushes the smallest windows into a screen
corner rather than the centre. The third, `Squeeze` arranges all
windows in one row or in one column, with geometrically decreasing
sizes.
* `XMonad.Layout.Hidden`
Similar to `XMonad.Layout.Minimize` but completely removes windows
from the window set so `XMonad.Layout.BoringWindows` isn't
necessary. Perfect companion to `XMonad.Layout.BinarySpacePartition`
since it can be used to move windows to another part of the BSP tree.
* `XMonad.Layout.IfMax`
Provides `IfMax` layout, which will run one layout if there are
maximum `N` windows on workspace, and another layout, when number
of windows is greater than `N`.
* `XMonad.Layout.PerScreen`
Configure layouts based on the width of your screen; use your
favorite multi-column layout for wide screens and a full-screen
layout for small ones.
* `XMonad.Layout.Stoppable`
This module implements a special kind of layout modifier, which when
applied to a layout, causes xmonad to stop all non-visible processes.
In a way, this is a sledge-hammer for applications that drain power.
For example, given a web browser on a stoppable workspace, once the
workspace is hidden the web browser will be stopped.
* `XMonad.Prompt.ConfirmPrompt`
A module for setting up simple confirmation prompts for
keybindings.
* `XMonad.Prompt.Pass`
This module provides 3 `XMonad.Prompt`s to ease passwords
manipulation (generate, read, remove) via [pass][].
* `XMonad.Util.RemoteWindows`
This module implements a proper way of finding out whether the
window is remote or local.
* `XMonad.Util.SpawnNamedPipe`
A module for spawning a pipe whose `Handle` lives in the xmonad state.
* `XMonad.Util.WindowState`
Functions for saving per-window data.
### Miscellaneous Changes
* Fix issue #9: `XMonad.Prompt.Shell` `searchPredicate` is ignored,
defaults to `isPrefixOf`
* Fix moveHistory when alwaysHighlight is enabled
* `XMonad.Actions.DynamicWorkspaceGroups` now exports `addRawWSGroup`
* Side tabs were added to the tabbed layout
* `XMonad/Layout/IndependentScreens` now exports `marshallSort`
* `XMonad/Hooks/UrgencyHook` now exports `clearUrgency`
* Exceptions are now caught when finding commands on `PATH` in `Prompt.Shell`
* Switched to `Data.Default` wherever possible
* `XMonad.Layout.IndependentScreens` now exports `whenCurrentOn`
* `XMonad.Util.NamedActions` now exports `addDescrKeys'`
* EWMH `DEMANDS_ATTENTION` support added to `UrgencyHook`
* New `useTransientFor` modifier in `XMonad.Layout.TrackFloating`
* Added the ability to remove arbitrary workspaces
