The header "wraster.h" needs different behaviour depending on whether the
support for X Shared Memory extension was enabled or not; but the related
macro USE_XSHM is defined by WindowMaker's configure. After this header
have been installed, the macro is no more useable.
This patch makes the "wraster.h" a generated file, so it will be different
depending on USE_XSHM, but will not make use of the macro itself.

Autoconf have been providing the option '--localedir' for a long time now,
so this patch removes the deprecated '--with-nls' option and makes use of
the standard '--localedir' instead.
Took opportunity to define the path in the 'config-paths.h' in the same way
the other paths are defined to be consistent, which also simplify the
compilation commands.

A few files are generated using custom commands, which so far did not
follow the silent rule as the compilation stuff.
This patch adds the needed stuff so they will also be silent if the user
wants so, leading to a cleaner build process where warning/error messages
are more visible.

Based on libexif feature, this patch is adding orientation
detection and provides 2 more shortcuts for live
right/left rotation. Internal version was bumped to 0.7.
On the one hand, libWINGs wasn't linking against -lX11 when it should
have been. And on the other, only libWINGs needs Xft, only wmaker needs
Xrandr, only wmaker and wmsetbg need Xinerama, only libwraster needs
Xmu, and -lpng may not need -lz.
Cleaning this up can help distributions get their dependencies correct,
and might even avoid loading the unused libraries at runtime, so we may
as well do it.

If you link against a library A that itself links against a library B,
it may or may not work to use symbols from library B in your executable;
this is known as "indirect linking". GNU ld does indirect linking by
default (but it can be disabled using --no-add-needed), but the new
experimental GNU gold linker does not do this. It's an easy fix for us,
as the tests are all already done in ./configure, we just need to tell
the Makefile.ams to use the results.
This should fix Debian bug #556677, if they ever start using this
branch.

I just spent an hour trying to find out why the latest wmaker-crm was
ignoring a number of the preferences in my configuration file. It turns
out the problem was that commit f41db5 added a value into the middle of
the enum in src/keybind.h, and the setting of
AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = no-dependencies in all the Makefile.ams meant that
make wasn't smart enough to rebuild the files depending on it.
Would anyone mind if we just remove no-dependencies from
AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS? People can still run ./configure with
--disable-dependency-tracking to disable it at configure time.
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.
The "make dist" command can be used to generate the release tarball, but
only if the Makefile.am correctly specifies EXTRA_DIST, specifies
headers in foo_SOURCES, and so on.
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
[mafra@Pilar:~]$ time wmgenmenu &> /dev/null
real 0m0.020s
user 0m0.006s

This patch modifies the linking of the WINGs libraries
to create a shared library. wmaker used to do this, but
it was dropped around wmaker-0.90/0.91.
The shared .so library is needed when compiling and running
the wdm display manager and any other programs which link
to libWINGs.

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
event.c: In function 'executeButtonAction:
event.c:711: error: WScreen has no member named root_menu
event.c:712: error: WScreen has no member named root_menu
event.c:713: error: WScreen has no member named root_menu
event.c:715: error: WScreen has no member named root_menu
event.c:720: error: WScreen has no member named switch_menu
event.c:721: error: WScreen has no member named switch_menu
event.c:722: error: WScreen has no member named switch_menu
event.c:724: error: WScreen has no member named switch_menu
make[2]: *** [event.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
But instead of fixing this (it would be trivial), let's get
rid of the whole ugliness altogether.
This patch adds the --disable-verbose-compile switch to the
configure script.
When this option is used it reduces the verbosity of compilation
messages to the essential. However compiler warnings are not affected
and thus gain visibility by not standing in the middle of a storm
of other messages.
In summary, the compilation messages are reduced to a stream of
CC array.o
CC bagtree.o
CC configuration.o
CC connection.o
CC data.o

- 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
- 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).
written in the libwraster.la file allowing automatic linking against
all the libs libwraster depends upon without specifing them again when
linking programs that use libwraster. -lwraster will be enough.
