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
The new shutdown.h file includes the shutdown modes and the functions
to shutdown Window Maker.
The function definitios were moved from funcs.h and the struct WShutdownMode
from WindowMaker.h.
Now, externs are not needed, only include shutdown.h
Added CycleIgnoreMinimized configuration option settable on Expert page in WPrefs.
When option is set, switch panel cycling ignores minimized (grayed) windows. They
are still visible and can be selected using left/right arrows or mouse click.
Now that the built-in parser has support for all the feature of CPP
being used by WindowMaker's default menu, we can remove the stuff
related to calling CPP:
- code for preparing and running CPP;
- compile-time option to de-activate the call to CPP;
- command-line option
The functions of main.c should be included in main.h, not in funcs.h.
This patch adds the main.h file and moves the function prototypes to
this file.
The not needed "include funcs.h" are removed.
Center strategy: try to put window at the center of the usable area. If
window would overlap with existing windows, fall back to "Auto"
placement strategy.
It's very useful for fresh workplaces.
(Window|Menu)Title(Min|Max)Height defaults options allow to set
minimum and maximum titlebar height.
For example, to force all titlebars to 24 pixels execute
following commands:
$ wdwrite WindowMaker WindowTitleMinHeight 24
$ wdwrite WindowMaker WindowTitleMaxHeight 24
$ wdwrite WindowMaker MenuTitleMinHeight 24
$ wdwrite WindowMaker MenuTitleMaxHeight 24

I have noticed that in WindowMaker 0.95.2 application icons bounce
when some actions are done, like starting a program, etc.
Disabling Superfluous or Animations also disabled the minimizing
animation which I am used to, so doing that didn't do the job.
Everyone has got his or her own tastes, but I did not like the new
behavior and didn't find any way to disable it without affecting other
things.
So I made a patch to fix just that. It adds a new option in WPrefs.app's
Expert Tab called "Do not make AppIcons bounce" which when enabled,
disables any type of bouncing for Application Icons, restoring the
old behavior.
Bouncing stays the new default behavior.
Replace the ARROWLESS_KBD #define with the ViKeyMenus preference.
When ViKeyMenus is TRUE, users can type h/j/k/l to scroll around menus.
Since ARROWLESS_KBD was previously undefined by default, ViKeyMenus is
FALSE by default.
After using WINGs wInputDialog() to handle renaming the workspace
upon Ctrl+left click on the workspace menu, all functions in src/text.c
become unused.
The window menu displays the shortcut key for operations with a
shortcut, but does not display the modifiers. This reduces the utility
of the display as it's hard to know whether "h" means "Mod4+h" or
"Ctrl+Mod4+h" or something else.
This patch prefixes those shortcut displays with the modifier names,
e.g. Ctrl+Mod4+h, and adds a preference ModifierKeyLabels to allow
overriding this, e.g. to "⌃◇h". It doesn't add this preference to
WPrefs, if someone else wants to do that feel free.

If the appicon is not in the dock/clip, or the dock/clip is not set to
"Keep on Top", there's a good chance you won't actually see the bouncing
because some other window is covering the appicon.
Besides adding the option to raise bouncing windows, this patch adds a
utility method to move a window back into its correct stacking position
after it has been messed with using XRaiseWindow.

When using Xinerama, make it possible only to cycle between those
windows that are on the currently active head - AFAICT this means
windows that have the majority of their area on the same head as
the pointer.
Patch complete with WPrefs integration, alas this being quite
unusable - for a lack of a better idea, I tucked the option on the
expert panel, making the item list too tall - making it scrollable
would be a nice addition.
The default for the new option (CycleActiveHeadOnly) should be NO,
that is, no change in default behaviour.
WindowMaker.h already #includes wconfig.h, which checks exactly
the same thing. So remove it from WindowMaker.h.
However, it would be better if WindowMaker.h didn't include
wconfig.h at all. The only reason I see for the inclusion is
the check for KEEP_XKB_LOCK_STATUS, defined in wconfig.h.
But that can be probably cleaned up too (I guess modern X's
enable XKB stuff that by default, by I haven't checked)
But anyway.
Even the option to enable "virtual desktop" in configure.ac was
commented out...and I would never intend to use it anyway.
So let's just remove the ~800 lines of #ifdef'ed code to have a
cleaner code base to read when bored.
This patch adds the ability to resize windows with the mouse wheel
while holding the Mod key. This currently ignores wWindowConstrainSize
until I can figure out a way to repeatably resize windows with
fixed size increments (like xterm) using this method.
This also adds a slider to WPrefs to choose the increment with which
the wheel will resize a window.
Two reasons for removing it:
1) I won't ever want to hear useless sounds
2) The sound support is a bit of a joke. The code is there but you have
to hunt it somewhere else (not in any repository that I know of).
In my 10 years of using wmaker, I never used it for this reason.
Now I consider having no sound in Window Maker a feature, and I like
it that way. So there is no point in carrying useless code around.
PS: There is still the code in WPrefs to be removed.
This patch adds history to some dialog boxes. To use it replace %a with
%A in menu file (like in "Run..." menu item). You can specify third
parameter to %A to use different histories for differen dialogs.
All history files is kept in ~/GNUstep/.AppInfo/WindowMaker/ and the number of
history lines controlled by DialogHistoryLines parameter (one for
all dialogs) defaults to 500 lines.
It also adds Tab completion.

This patch is from the contrib directory. It adds an option to allow starting
DockApps with a single click. It's a handy option that adds only a few lines to
the code.
It is a good feature patch example because it includes modifications
to the WPrefs application so that the feature can be easily enabled or
disabled. The one-click ability allows wmaker to integrate more seemlessly with
programs like ROX-Filer which can be configured to use single or double click
actions.

This patch removes wmaker from PowerTop's shame list, where
it appeared with ~3-4 wakeups/second.
It adds the linux kernel's dnotify mechanism (adapted from
the example in Documentation/dnotify.txt in the kernel source),
to detect when a configuration file in ~/GNUStep/Defaults has
changed to load it again on-the-fly. For me it usually means that
modifications to ~/GNUStep/Defaults/WMRootMenu via the 'genmenu'
script are automatically detected and loaded.
The use of dnotify makes the ancient behaviour of polling unecessary
and cuts down the wakeups count.
Other 'apparently' useless timers are also deleted and it's been almost
one year now that I use this patched exclusively without problems, so
I am pretty sure that it doesn't hurt to remove them.
The end result of all this is that wmaker generates 0 (zero) wakeups
when idle in a Linux system.

- Fixed the signal handler for crashes (ie, removed it) and made wmaker
restarting be made automatically by a monitoring process.
- Made NetWM support be enabled by default
- Removed old code to store/restore workspace state (now relies on netwm)
- Fixed bug in icon chooser dialog that could cause a segmentation fault
in some cases (Pascal Hofstee <caelian@gmail.com>)
- Fixed crash in asm code in wrlib, with new versions of gcc.

used the r, g, b fields in the conversion.
- Fixed x86 ASM code in wrlib to work on 64 bit architectures.
- Fixed the focus flicker seen with some apps (notably gtk2)
(Alexey Spiridonov <snarkmaster@gmail.com>)
- Fixed all crashing bugs that were generated by wmaker starting with the
WMState file missing.
- Added NetWM support (a modified version of the patch originaly written
by Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>)

- Fixed the layout of some elements in WPrefs.app
- Added workaround for aplications that don't set the required hints on the
client leader window, but they set them on normal windows (observer with

(they should be fixed still)
- Added workaround for applications that do not set a command with
XSetCommand(), but instead they set the _NET_WM_PID property. This works
with operating systems that offer a /proc interface similar to what linux
has. (This also is to fix problems with KDE 3.3.0 apps, but not only them).
- Fixed bug with autostart and exit scripts not being executed if user
GNUstep path was different from ~/GNUstep (when setting GNUSTEP_USER_ROOT)
- Added utf8 support in WINGs (removed old X core font code)
- Added utility to convert old font names to new font names in style files
manager" option in the crashing dialog panel.
- Window Maker will now use the WINDOWMAKER_ALT_WM environment variable (if
it is defined) to overwrite the default hardcoded fallback window manager.
- Separated the font caches for normal fonts and fontsets in WINGs (they can
have the same names and collide in the cache giving unwanted results)
- Updated the years in the copyright notices
