With the fonts I use here, the memory information line in the "Info panel"
did not fit inside the window. So make that line a bit shorter by displaying
Total memory allocated: 2600 kB (in use: 2182 kB)
instead of
Total allocated memory: 2600 kB. Total memory in use: 2182 kB.
Furthermore, the surrounding code was a bit convoluted to display either
"Additional support for: WMSPEC"
or
"Additional support for: WMSPEC and MW"
As WMSPEC is always present and it doesn't seem we are adding more stuff
to support, one can do the same with a shorter code which reads a little
bit better.
Despite having the inotify mechanism compiled in my WM, everytime I
changed a keyboard shortcut definition in the WMRootMenu via WPrefs
I was required to open the WMRootMenu (eg with the F12 key) for the
change to take effect...annoying.
So explicitly reload the key bindings when a modification inside
~/GNUstep/Defaults/ is detected. As the inotify mechanism calls the
function wDefaultsCheckDomains() when that happens, let's add a call
to rebind_key_grabs() in there.
Now it works fine and changes are automatically in effect once WPrefs
writes the menu.
PS: rebindKeygrabs() renamed to rebind_key_grabs()...
There's no need to have a private function while there's one in WINGs.
Besides that, it does not remove trailing whitespaces appropriately as I
just tested by adding trailing space in the shortcut captured by WPrefs.
It is not trimmed before saving it:
[mafra@Pilar:Defaults]$ grep CloseKey WindowMaker
CloseKey = "Mod1+C ";
Using wtrimspace() fixes that and even saves 208 bytes of code:
[mafra@Pilar:WPrefs.app]$ size KeyboardShortcuts.o.*
text data bss dec hex filename
7703 0 0 7703 1e17 KeyboardShortcuts.o.new
7911 0 0 7911 1ee7 KeyboardShortcuts.o.old

There is code duplication with the cropline() function, so get rid
of it and use WINGs wtrimspace() instead.

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.
As pointed out in the comments in
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=304480
it's not possible to rename workspaces with non-ascii characters -- more
precisely characters which require deadkeys with your particular keyboard.
According to the investigation made by Rodolfo Peñas:
http://lists.windowmaker.org/dev/msg02529.html
the fundamental issue behind this bug is the fact that XLookupString can't
handle deadkeys.
So either we do something radical or live with the bug.
However -- as Rodolfo also pointed out -- renaming the workspaces via the
Clip works with non-ascii chars. The reason is that the Clip uses a input dialog
function from WINGs to handle the renaming.
So instead of doing the low-level handling of text inside the menu in order
to rename workspaces, just fire up the same WINGs input dialog to handle it.
It works and the old function editEntry() can be removed.
Furthermore, it makes the whole set of functions in src/wtext.c useless, and
they are removed in the next patch.
Overall, 600 lines of code are gone now.

The summary now looks like:
Window Maker was configured as follows:
Installation path prefix : /usr/local
Installation path for binaries : /usr/local/bin
Installation path for libraries : /usr/lib64
Installation path for WPrefs.app : /usr/local
Supported graphic format libraries : XPM PNG JPEG TIFF builtin-PPM
Antialiased text support in WINGs : yes
Xinerama extension support : yes
XRandR extension support : yes
Translated message files to install : None
I want to see the library line in order to avoid forgetting that
I should put them in /usr/lib64 (and not in the defaul /usr/local/lib)
The statement under "if (style_file)" in the else branch of
"if (make_pack)" will never be executed because getstyle already
prints out a help message and exits before that.
So remove that code.
Instead of using a temporary buffer to store a "reason" string
which is later printf()'ed by abortar(), use wwarning() directly
and do the small cleanup done by abortar() on the spot.
As this was the only call site for abortar() it can now be removed.
The resulting object code gets smaller as a side effect.
Thanks to Christophe <christophe.curis@free.fr> for finding a mistake
in the first version of this patch.
This is essentially the fetchFile() from wcolorpanel.c from the last
commit, but renamed to a better name.
This patch just adds the function to the lib. Nobody uses it yet.
The idea is to use the fetchFile() in getstyle.c and in wcolorpanel.c
instead of using two very similar functions.
In order to do that, let's move the most generic one (fetchFile()) to
libWUtils, and this is the first step.
Dario Niedermann reported on 27.11.2011:
Selecting "Save Theme" from WMaker's root menu results in dialog box
asking for theme name, but then nothing is saved.
This feature used to work in 0.92.0.
and the reason for it (if he uses a WMRootMenu generated by wmgenmenu) is
the incorrect use of the option "-t" instead of "-p" to getstyle.
Furthermore, let the invocation of getstyle reflect the new default location
for the themes.
When invoked as
getstyle -p NewTheme
Instead of saving the theme inside the topdir ~/GNUstep let's save it
insinde their proper directory ~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/Themes.
There is a problem with getstyle invoked with no arguments:
[mafra@Pilar:util]$ ./getstyle
Usage: getstyle [-t] [-p] [-h] [-v] [file]
or with -t:
[mafra@Pilar:util]$ ./getstyle -t
Usage: getstyle [-t] [-p] [-h] [-v] [file]
In both cases it is supposed to write to the standard output:
[mafra@Pilar:wmaker.git]$ getstyle -h
Usage: getstyle [-t] [-p] [-h] [-v] [file]
Retrieves style/theme configuration and output to FILE or to stdout
This regression was caused by commit 6bf7994520 ("style Stuff up").
When that commit did
argc -= optind;
if (argc != 1)
print_help(0,1);
it excluded the output to stdout as valid, because in this case
argc - optind is zero (see the manpage of getopt(3)).
The correct handling is to set the style_file only when there is
one non-option ARGV-element (argc - optind == 1) and print the
help message when there are more than one non-option element.
Applying patches without needing to fix them first helps me save time,
and this file (stolen from the linux kernel documentation) contains some
valuable tips to configure email clients to not mangle the patches you send.
The goal is that patches are sent in the body of the email (to ease review)
and be applied directly with 'git am'.
I personally use mutt as mail client and xjed as an editor. I insert the patch
in the body of the email using xjed's "Insert file" menu operation. That
works fine, but this documentation file helps you with more choices.
This reverts commit f4890b17e6.
It turns out that I needed some functions from wtext.c to develop
a WINGs front-end to my comic book collection MySQL database.

With the addition of an extra button to the 'Advanced Options' window,
the vertical space of the widget no longer suffices. Increase it from
350 to 360 and adjust other parameters accordingly.
And let's write the button positions as 'PHEIGHT - 40' instead of using
a hardcoded value, avoiding the need to change it everytime PHEIGHT is
changed.

The flag to not let windows be minimized was already defined in
WM (it's called 'no_miniaturizable') and the minimize functions
respect it. However this flag can not currently be set manually.
As can be read in the NEWS file
"NotMiniaturizable option changed to NoMiniaturizeButton"
it seems that the "non miniaturizable" property was a first-class citizen
in ancient times and probably configurable (those changes do not appear in
the old CVS history).
Let's make this property be user-configurable through the "Advanced Options"
panel.

Before this change some lines in the "Advanced Options" window would not
fit into one line and would screw up the others. This depends on the fonts
used, but increasing the width of the panel a bit does not hurt.
Instead of using _old_ and hard-coded predefined menus as the
source for the user's WMRootMenu during installation, generate
the menu automatically using wmgenmenu.

wmagnify stopped working after f65b99e615 ("Remove warnings").
So revert that change in util/wmagnify.c, as it turns out that the
gcc warning was bogus there.
If we Restart() directly, the windows with titlebars come back N pixels
below their original positions before the xrandr-induced restart, where
N is the titlebar height.
To avoid this issue, let's do the proper restart preparation before
actually calling Restart().
Let's also grab ConfigureNotify in the event loop as in the patch
here: http://lists.kde.org/?l=kwin&m=116429907520188&w=2

Some people using nvidia and/or playing some games (e.g. Einstein)

The code was added in 2001 in commit acdc0e3d6b for
"backwards compat". This motivation no longer exists in 2010,
so there is no reason to keep a private implementation of
a standard function from the C library.
Instead of using the --disable-verbose-compile hack, let's
use the standard option --enable-silent-rules (or 'make V=0' directly)
available with autoconf 1.11 and higher.
This is enabled in autoconf by using 'silent-rules' in AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE.
The verbosity of compilation is reduced in a similar manner as using
the --disable-verbose-compile option, so we can remove all that ugly
hackery.
According to the autoconf manual, using AS_HELP_STRING is recommended
to avoid having to manually adjust the alignment of help text
in ./configure --help

This patch makes wmaker automatically Restart() to take into account
resolution changes done by xrandr.
The motivation to write this patch is that when I start my laptop connected
to an external monitor (VGA1), the resolution in the monitor is initially
wrong (perhaps this is a bug in XOrg or OpenSuse, but anyway), so I always
do this after starting wmaker:
xrandr --output VGA1 --preferred
The resolution in the external monitor gets fixed, but wmaker does not
recognize the change automatically and I have to manually restart it.
So this patch avoids the last step by making wmaker be XRandR-aware.
Wmaker now restarts automatically when it receives a RRChangeScreenNotify
event and I don't have to do the last part of the silly procedure described
above.
I am not sure if restarting wmaker is the most elegant solution, but
it at least solves part of my issue with wmaker + xrandr.
If a window has the skip_window_list flag set wmaker currently not only skips
this window from the window list (F11) but also from the switchpanel (TAB).
This patch makes skip_window_list-windows appear in the switchpanel and be
skipped only in the window list, strictly honoring what the name of the flag
is supposed to mean.
The motivation for this is that I have lots of workspaces and almost all of
them has a xterm, so that I set the skip_window_list for the xterms not to
overcrowd the window list. But I still want to alt+TAB to xterms on the current
workspace.
In addition to that, now the "internal window" flag is not checked before
appearing in the switchpanel.
gcc-4.4.1 was complaining:
fontconv.c: In function ‘mapWeightToName’:
fontconv.c:114: warning: field precision should have type ‘int’, but argument 4 has type ‘size_t’

fontconv.c:157: warning: field precision should have type ‘int’, but argument 4 has type ‘size_t’
The rationale is the same as in commit c7f2a189c4
("Fix the call to XChangeProperty() in 64-bit mode"), because we are
calling XChangeProperty() with format 32, which requires the type of
'data' to be 'long'.
As the README used to say, it was a unfinished work. If someone
wants to finish it after all these years it can be recovered
from the logs. But meanwhile let's not carry dead code around.
By defining a struct containing the coordinates of the
windows (top, bottom, left, right, width, height) and
using a helper function to set up these coordinates, the
whole function becomes much cleaner and easier to read.
It addresses this warning
dialog.c: In function ‘LoadHistory’:
dialog.c:209: warning: passing argument 2 of ‘WMFindInArray’ from incompatible pointer type
../WINGs/WINGs/WUtil.h:455: note: expected ‘int (*)(void *, void *)’ but argument is of type ‘int (*)(const void *, const void *)’
but induces others in other places. One of them was this one
window.c: In function ‘wManageWindow’:
window.c:782: warning: passing argument 2 of ‘WMFindInArray’ from incompatible pointer type
../WINGs/WINGs/WUtil.h:455: note: expected ‘int (*)(const void *, const void *)’ but argument is of type ‘int (*)(void *, void *)’
which is fixed by constifying the arguments of matchIdentifier(). The other warnings are
fixed similarly.
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.
Taking the border width into account was making it hard to follow the
algorithm, and complicating things usually lead to mistakes.
In fact, in trying to account for this +/- 1 pixel issue the maximus
geometry for the requested window would sometimes overlap another window
by one or two pixels (depending if it was on the right or left). Therefore,
applying the maximus geometry to this other window in sequence would
maximize it completely instead of finding the correct tiled geometry.
So that always bugged me. Now I got tired of it and decided to kill the
whole consideration of the border width, and simply put some "+ 1"
inconditionally to be on the safe side.
Now it can happen that the windows will stay away one or two pixels,
but trying to be 'good enough' is better than trying to be 'perfect'
and getting it wrong for corner cases.
And the matter is worse because the size of xterms are 'quantized', so
changing the position of the other windows by a few pixels result sometimes
in a overlap of +1 pixel, or a distance of 1 or 2 pixels. Furthermore,
the bottom of xcalc behaves differently from the bottom of a xterm or
xjed (for xcalc the ad hoc correction for bottom_0 must be -8 in total).
But now my tests show that things are OK, and I can use maximus
for all the windows in the screen and no overlap will occur (except
if one of the windows is a xcalc, I don't know why).
It wasn't defined anywhere and when I defined it, the compilation
did not finish:
appicon.c: In function drawCorner:
appicon.c:206: error: WScreen has no member named focused_texture
appicon.c:208: error: WScreen has no member named unfocused_texture

So let's simply remove those #ifdefs.
The non-gpl warnings in WPrefs.app/tiff/README
and WPrefs.app/README were misleading, because
they were refering to Marco van Hylckama Vlieg's
work which was licensed with OpenContent License.
But as Alfredo Kojima wrote in the Changelog in
commit f65c549814 from 30.03.2010,
Marco's icons were licensed with the GPL.
Furthermore, in an email to wmaker-dev on 10.03.2010,
Marco confirmed:
"Anyway, I have no problem with the artwork being
licensed under GPL or whatsoever."
The inspiration comes from Geir T. Kristiansen's 'genmenu' shell script
(http://gtk.no/genmenu) which I have been hapilly using for
the last 9 years or so.
That script generates the Window Maker menu by asking a few questions
and checks whether the applications in a predefined list exist in
the user's $PATH, so that the menu contains only the applications
which are guaranteed to exist and which the user cares about.
However I always thought it was a bit slow to finish, even
when having a file containing the answers to the questions to
be piped in.
And as Kristiansen states in his webpage, his script does not
support internationalization:
"If you want internationalization I really suggest you rewrite
genmenu from scratch anyway in a more sensible language and remove
other limitations while you are at it."
so I decided to rewrite in C and make it support internationalization
(only English and German so far). While I am not sure yet if I removed
"other limitations while you are at it" I definitely made it finish faster.
This C program does not make you questions though.
But in the same spirit as the author of 'genmenu', who says:
"Genmenu is a hack, deal with it, it just happens to serve my needs."
I present you 'wmgenmenu', which you can use like this:
wmgenmenu > /home/mafra/GNUstep/Defaults/WMRootMenu
and the menu is automatically generated from the list of
predefined apps which are contained in the C sources (wmgenmenu.h).
And when you generate the WMRootMenu as above, wmaker will automatically
load the new menu for you (due to the 'inotify' mechanism in wmaker-crm).
As for 'wmgenmenu' being faster than 'genmenu':
[mafra@Pilar:~]$ time ./genmenu.sh < answers.txt &> /dev/null
real 0m3.626s
user 0m0.968s
sys 0m1.830s

Once upon a time (< 2005) the CachedPixmaps directory was located
at ~/GNUstep/.AppInfo/ and that was later moved to
~/GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker. So Dan Pascu introduced this function
in 24519b6292 to make the convertion
automatically to users back then.
As it is highly unlikely that there is an old-timer wmaker user still
running a pre-2005 wmaker which suddenly decides to switch to wmaker-crm
and runs into trouble with his CachedPixmaps folder, let's simply remove it
to make defaults.o 1.8% smaller (596 bytes).
No new translations were added. The .po file was recreated with
make WPrefs.pot
msgmerge de.po WPrefs.pot > de.po.new
(remove old strings from it)
mv de.po.new de.po
It was fun trying to translate them, but even after several
minutes of deep thoughts about the different cases etc I managed
to translate them wrongly.
So I thank Martin Dietze for kindly fixing them!
I wanted to learn some German and got curious to read the Window Maker
translations. After noticing that some strings with translations
were already removed from the main source I decided to recreate the
German .po file to get rid of those messages.
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.
The raising and lowering of the clip is already taken care of
by the "ClipRaiseLowerKey" shortcut.
wmaker gets a bit smaller for free:
text data bss dec hex filename
449483 17384 8208 475075 73fc3 src/.libs/wmaker.old
449307 17256 8192 474755 73e83 src/.libs/wmaker.new
I don't want the (small) overhead of the window birth zoom special effects
because I like apps popping up instantly when I open them (specially now
with the SSD).
Another way to not get the birth animation is to unset "animations" in
WPrefs, but that makes the other animations which I care (ie they don't have
the effect of making my computer seem slower than it really is) go away.
Paul Harris reported that using the mouse wheel over a miniwindow
would deiconify it to a different workspace than the original one
where it was iconified.
This happens because after the window begins to be deiconified the
"residual" mouse wheel scrolling hits the workspace background, and
Window Maker changes workspace with wWorkspaceRelativeChange().
But if it all happens fast enough (so the deiconification animation
did not finish yet) the workspace will have changed before the
window reaches its final deiconified destination, leading to
the situation that Paul described in the link below.
So to avoid this, let's set a 'ignore_wks_change' variable
from wDeiconifyWindow() and make wWorkspaceRelativeChange() respect it.
