The raising and lowering of the clip is already taken care of
by the "ClipRaiseLowerKey" shortcut.
wmaker gets a bit smaller for free:

This patch adds the DockRaiseLowerKey shortcut, which raises/lowers
the dock depending on whether the dock is lowered/raised.
[crmafra: Reformatted Brad's patch against git repo and removed the
DockRaiseKey and DockLowerKey shortcuts ]
This patch fixes a problem with restarting Window Maker in multi-screen
environments. The code for setting the background by calling wmsetbg
changes the environment. In multi-screen setups the DISPLAY variable
becomes :0.0 instead of :0 (for example). The restarted Window Maker
process therefore only manages one screen.
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.
For those not familiar with the way Macs cycle windows, the Command-Tab
sequence (Alt-Tab elsewhere) switches between DIFFERENT application windows
and Command-Grave (key above tab) switches between windows owned by the
SAME application as is currently focused. So if you had three Safari and
two Finder windows open, and Safari had focus, Command-Tab would switch to
Finder; Command-Tab would switch back to Safari; Command-Grave would switch
to a different Safari window etc.
This patch implements "something like" the above by only populating the
switchpanel with windows matching the currently-focused WWindow's wm_class
when the new cycling mode is activated. In practice this means you can
switch to The Next XTerm or The Next Firefox Window using this method.
The configuration names for these new shortcuts are GroupNext and
GroupPrev. The patch tells WPrefs.app about them. Of course switching to
The Next Window is still possible with the (unchanged) FocusNext and
FocusPrev keys.
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 introduces the "tiled maximization" feature, a.k.a. Maximus.
By pressing the keyboard shortcut associated with Maximus, the focused
window will be maximized to the greatest area satisfying the constraint
of not overlapping existing windows.
This adds Left Half / Right Half Maximize capability to WindowMaker.
It allows you to maximize a window to only the left or right half
of your screen.
It is useful on widescreen displays where one might to bring up
two different windows side-by-side.
Why?
1. The reason for its existence is to "Disable some stuff that are
duplicated in kde", and I don't think I will ever need that.
Furthermore, even the description in the configure script reads
"disable some stuff (dont use it)".
2. It makes the code uglier at some places, e.g.,
#ifdef LITE
{
#if 0
}
#endif
#else
if (!wRootMenuPerformShortcut(event)) {
#endif
which by the way is the ugliness which motivated this patch.
3. Does not even compile anymore. It fails with
CC dockedapp.o
CC event.o

But instead of fixing this (it would be trivial), let's get
rid of the whole ugliness altogether.

The different line break at 115 columns is because

gcc-4.3.2 warns:
defaults.c: In function 'getModMask':
defaults.c:2586: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false
The line in question is
if (mask < 0)
and 'mask' is the return of wXModifierFromKey() which is an 'int' and can
indeed return a negative value (see src/xmodifier.c), so let 'mask' be
an 'int' too.
There is no point in having parameter in wDefaultsCheckDomains() and
not using it, so let's simply remove the parameter altogether and
avoid silly-looking things like
wDefaultsCheckDomains("bla");
gcc was complaining in a few places things like:
defaults.c:890: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned
so let's just make the loop counting variables be unsigned, as
the never get negative anyway.
I also spotted other two variables which can be unsigned too.
gcc-4.3.2 warns:
defaults.c:3136: warning: declaration of 'index' shadows a global declaration
/usr/include/string.h:309: warning: shadowed declaration is here
and in a few other places too. Fix this by renaming 'index' to 'widx'.
This patch fixes the following warnings (with gcc 4.2.3)
defaults.c:980: warning: unused variable 'replace'
main.c:504: warning: 'watchPath' may be used uninitialized in this function
main.c:504: note: 'watchPath' was declared here
startup.c:616: warning: implicit declaration of function 'XrmUniqueQuark'
The handling of user defined shortcuts was not checking the length
of the shortcut before copying it to a fixed-length temporary buffer,
char buf[128];
strcpy(buf, shortcutDefinition);
and strcpy() is well known for not checking if overflows will occur.
In particular, wmaker was crashing here if a big 'shortcut' was defined
either through WPrefs or by directly editing the configuration files.
This is now avoided by using strncpy() instead.
And this patch also fixes a similar buffer overflow for big workspace
names too.
Furthermore, use MAX_SHORTCUT_LENGTH instead of raw number and define
it to be 32 instead of 128.
There may be issues with running applications in 64-bit mode when
they were written with tacit assumptions about 32-bit platforms.
For example,
* Assuming that a pointer can be cast back and forth to an integer
The reason is that the size of the integer and pointer may be different.
See the description of "[PATCH] Warn when casting a pointer (constant)
to an integer of different size." in the gcc mailing list
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2005-12/msg01881.html
where it was also suggested the use of casts to uintptr_t. This is
what this patch does.
As a result the following warnings are fixed, leaving us with an
almost warning-free compilation in 64-bit platforms:

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.
Signed-off-by: Carlos R. Mafra <crmafra@ift.unesp.br>
- Fixed WPrefs path in the installed WMState (changed after recent WPrefs
installation path changes)
- Fixed wmaker.inst (apparently some very noisy individual was unable to get
right his 10 line patch to rename a path)
the old .AppInfo/... to the new Library/WindowMaker/... on the fly when
Window Maker starts.
This should allow a transparent transition without any need for users to do
anything.
- 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.
- Fixed bug in the x86_PseudoColor_32_to_8() function which incorrectly
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>)
- Applied patch to enhance the Virtual Desktop behaviour, and to integrate
it with the NetWM code (Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>)
- Applied a few xinerama and placement fixes (Peter Zijlstra
<a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>)
- Fixed memory leak in dock code.
- Fixed and enhanced the text wrapping in WINGs.
- 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
KDE 3.3.0 mainly). This will allow these apps to get an appicon again.
(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
- fixed the workspace name display problem.
- replaced most of scr->xxx_pixel with scr->xxx_color
- removed some obsoleted GC's in the WScreen structure
WMDrawString() and WMDrawImageString() now take WMColor instead of GC as
arguments. WMDrawImageString() receives 2 colors (text & background).
This is to allow easy extension for Xft/Xrender and hide X low level details
- Added alpha channel to WMColor. 2 new functions also:
WMCreateRGBAColor() and WMSetColorAlpha()
- Miscelaneous code cleanups in wtext.c
- Removed obsoleted acconfig.h and implemented its functionality using
AC_DEFINE and AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED as autoconf 2.5x recommends.
This will definitely enforce the need to use autoconf 2.5x
- 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
the global domain as well and are exactly the same. This fixes a bug where
settings from the global domain file were merged in the user domain file
and further changes in the global domain file for those merged values was
ignored making a system admin unable to set global defaults for all users
using the global domains.
- Fixed bug with not extracting the icon from the client when using
shared appicons.
- Added WMSubtractPLDictionaries() to WINGs (opposite for merging, it will
remove all entries from dest if they are present in source and are exactly
the same. Unique entries in dest and entries with different values from
those present in source will be preserved).
- Also tested the backward compatibility ability of the WINGs proplist code
which seems to work quite well.
Starting with this moment, Window Maker no longer needs libPropList and is
now using the better and much more robust proplist code from WINGs. Also the
WINGs based proplist code is actively maintained while the old libPropList
code is practically dead and flawed by the fact that it borrowed concepts
from the UserDefaults which conflicted with the retain/release mechanism,
making some problems that libPropList had, practically unsolvable without a
complete redesign (which can be found in the more robust WINGs code).
