-focus on previous or next window
-move to previous or next workspace
and adding wheel action to
-switch between windows

Since the resolution of the Retina display tends to make everything small,
the default apercu preview size (twice the icon size) couldn't be used to
distinguish the window contents without tiring too much my eyes.
Therefore, let's make the apercu size a configurable option. You can set
it through the ApercuSize variable with
$ wdwrite WindowMaker ApercuSize 4
in multiples of the icon size (in this case the apercu size will be four
times the icon size).
The default size remains 2 (twice the icon size).
This patch is adding miniwindow apercu when the mouse
is over the miniwindows.
To enable it you have to run WPref, in Miscellaneous Ergonomic
Preferences, check miniwindow apercus.
Then, you will be able to see a screenshot of the app when the mouse
is over the miniwindow.
This patch is replacing XRandR naming to RandR,
as XRandR is the name of the tool used in X11 and RandR
is the technology WMaker wants to support.
I had to update the info panel too, when many features are
activated not all of them can be displayed properly.
The usual way to define a macro in is to name macro with 'USE_xxx' when
they are used to enable a feature 'xxx'.

The default domains were originally defined in different global
variables in C files; This patches groups them in a single
structure placed in global namespace.
The variable session_state, defined in screen.h (WScreen), is moved to
the global variable w_global.

The appicon list is moved out of WScreen. The reason is because
the appicon list is used to create and remove icons (appicons, dock,
clip,...) on the screen, but these icons are not associated with the
WScreen. These icons are associated with the Workspace.
If we check the WWorkspace struct we can see that the Clip is inside
this struct. The dock, the background, the workspace name are other
items related to the Workspace, not with the screen.
So, we should take out the appicon from the WScreen. But, what is the
better place to hold it? The workspace? NO!, because the icon list
is common to the all workspaces. Probably the better place is hold
as independent list in the global namespace, so this is my option.
In the next patches we can see that this is the better option, because
we can create the icons, without think where we should paint them.

The clip, dock, workspaces and drawers menus are common for all
workspaces, so they should be included in the global namespace
instead of the screen struct.
The variable workspace_menu, that contains the workspace_menu
is moved to the global workspace properties.
Now the screen is not needed to know the workspace_menu.
This variable is moved to the global workspace struct because it is
related to the workspace system, and not to the screen.
The variable workspaces, that contains the list of workspaces
is moved to the global workspace properties.
Now the screen is not needed to know the workspaces.
The function getWindowState() doesn't need the WScreen argument.
The variable current_workspace, that contains the current workspace
is moved to the global workspace properties.
Now the screen is not needed to know the workspace_count.
The variable last_workspace, that contains the last used workspace
is moved to the global workspace properties.
Now the screen is not needed to know the workspace_count.
The variable name is changed to workspace.last_used because a similar
variable name is also in the WApplication struct.
The variable workspace_count, that contains the number of workspaces
is moved to the global workspace properties.
Now the screen is not needed to know the workspace_count.
The new workspace struct includes the global information
for the workspaces. All information related with the workspaces
should be included here.
The first variable moved is workspace_name_font, included in this
patch. This variable was included in the screen info, but the
screen and the font used in the workspace name don't have any
relationship.
A default cursor would make sense if we were talking about an API,
where we would propose a 'I-don't-know' choice to devs, but here
we're talking about WindowMaker's internal, where we're supposed
to provide a consistent interface to the user, so picking a
cursor is not an option (and 'Normal' is actually a decent
looking choice anyway).
Suggested-by: Rodolfo García Peñas <kix@kix.es>
As the cursor choice for each action is actually a user choice,
it is logical to put this into the structure, instead of a poorly
defined 'extern' in every file.
Having all the global variables at the same place will provide
better visibility on the code; grouping them in a structure
reduces the risk for name clash; it also offer the possibility
to organise them.
Another BIG benefit is that, when reading the code, an access to
a global variable will now be clearly visible, and distinguished
from a local variable use.
The name will be a problem with next change because it uses a too
common word which will be useful at a better place.
Took the opportunity to rewitre the check in the human logical
thinking order to make it easier to read.
The flag "supports_tiff" doesn't belong to the wScreen, because all
screens has (or not) the same value. If wmaker supports (or not) tiff
files is global to all wmaker, not to the screens.
The original type was not as safe as it looked like to be, and led
to more memory usage than necessary.

If the new preference SwitchPanelOnlyOpen is set to YES, pressing
alt-tab or similar shortcut will only open the panel without
automatically switching to the next window. Shortcuts will continue to
function normally once the panel is open.
Users can enable the new preference if they find themselves regularly
opening the switchpanel just to visualise which windows are open, or to
initiate same-class cycling.
The default value of the new preference is NO. Behaviour is unchanged
unless the preference is explicitly enabled with the following command:
$ wdwrite WindowMaker SwitchPanelOnlyOpen YES
As the name implies, StartWindozeCycle() cycles windows in the same way
that a popular commercially-available operating system does. However
Window Maker's handling of the shift key in the switchpanel does not
currently mirror that of its commercial counterpart.
In the popular operating system:
Holding alt and shift then pressing and releasing tab will highlight
the previous window in the switcher.
Releasing shift with alt still held will not close the switcher.
The window change is commited when alt is released.
In Window Maker:
Holding alt and shift then pressing and releasing tab will highlight
the previous window in the switchpanel.
Releasing shift with alt still held will close the switchpanel and commit
the window change.
This patch adds the StrictWindozeCycle boolean preference. When it is
set to YES the switchpanel will remain open as long as alt is held even
if shift is pressed and released.
The dock will have the up-right and down-left arrows to change workspaces and
the clip will be disabled. That is, if option ClipMergedInDock is set to yes in
GNUstep/Defaults/WindowMaker.
[not thoroughly tested]
Drawers are horizontal docks, and they can themselves only live in the dock
To use them, right click on the dock or a docked appicon and select "Add
a drawer". Then move appicons into the drawer (drag them with the
mouse). You may change the icon of the drawer. By default, drawers
auto-expand and -collapse, and auto-raise/lower. This can be customized
in the same way as for the clip.
Set DisableDrawers to YES in G/D/WindowMaker if you do not want to see
the menu entry to add a drawer.
Just discovered this bug: the auto-attract icon functionality will not
work (to be precise, it crashes WM!) if the clip is disabled
(NoClip=YES). Will fix shortly, of course.
The options are ClipAutoraiseDelay, ClipAutolowerDelay, ClipAutoexpandDelay, ClipAutocollapseDelay
The default values are weird but merely represent the previously
hard-coded ones. They are repeated in Defaults/WindowMaker to avoid a
WPrefs crash (but it's a good idea to make them "visible", too)
WPrefs change coming up
