| ChangeLog for Blackbox 0.50.xx | ||
| Enjoy! :) | ||
| ChangeLog for 0.62.x | ||
|
|
||
| Changes from 0.40.14 to 0.50.0: | ||
| - added util/ subdirectory to place small, utility programs to use in | ||
| conjunction with blackbox. | ||
| - updated the README... it's still vague and useless, but gives a better | ||
| view of whats going on | ||
| - the configure script now checks for a few more headers, setlocale and | ||
| strftime in addition to basename functions to better include support for | ||
| multiple arch/langs/etc. | ||
| - updated default menu file... made it a little more general... and made | ||
| the default style menu [include]'d instead of explicitly included... | ||
| this break off of the style menu allows for custom menus to include the | ||
| default style menu for a create selection of styles | ||
| - changed all the default styles to use bsetroot instead of xsetroot | ||
| - menu handling has been improved... no more than one menu at a time may be | ||
| visible on the desktop (save for the root menu and it's tear off menus) | ||
| this means that you can't have multiple window menus and the workspace menu | ||
| open all at once... which saves screen space and reduces clutter | ||
| - much of the code has been reorganzied and reformatted for better | ||
| readability... this consists of function name changes and function | ||
| "ownership" (which basically means workspaces aren't managed by the toolbar | ||
| itself anymore, but by a general screen class on which the toolbar can | ||
| operate) | ||
| - the workspacemenu now autohides when selecting a window from one of the | ||
| window lists | ||
| - removed many empty destructors for Basemenu subclasses to improve code | ||
| readability | ||
| - two new files, Screen.cc and Screen.hh, have been added to the distribution | ||
| they add the new class BScreen which was needed for the biggest change of | ||
| the Blackbox code base, the addition of multiple screen (i.e. multihead) | ||
| support. A separate BScreen is created for each screen, and all screens | ||
| work inconjunction with the other... windows can't be passed between | ||
| screens, because the X server doesn't allow this (more investigation on | ||
| this later) | ||
| - the toolbar's clock format is now controlled by the strftime() function... | ||
| if configure can't find this function on your system, the old date/time | ||
| format is used... with strftime, clicking on the clock doesn't display the | ||
| date... as the date may now be part of the clock display... read the man | ||
| page for the strftime function to write a format string for your clock, | ||
| and place it in .blackboxrc (i.e. | ||
| session.strftimeFormat: %I:%M %p on %a, %b %d is my strftime format | ||
| string) | ||
| - the toolbar has been stripped of it's workspace responsibilities, but this | ||
| change has no effect on the end user. | ||
| - common code interspersed through out the code has been consolodated into | ||
| small functions and called multiple times instead of having the same or | ||
| similar code repeated in the same class | ||
| - the window startup code has been improved upon again so that shaded windows | ||
| are restored between restarts | ||
| - some ICCCM code has been updated to properly reflect the state of windows | ||
| while shaded or on different workspaces... this state code change should | ||
| also fix the JX toolkit problem of deiconifying and nothing being redrawn | ||
| - the main Blackbox class has been changed to purely handle X events... it | ||
| doesn't manage resources (save for those necessary for proper event | ||
| handling, like the focus model for each screen) | ||
| - the format of .blackboxrc has changed slightly, the session.menuFile, | ||
| session.doubleClickInterval, session.imageDither, session.styleFile, | ||
| and session.colorsPerChannel resources are unchanged. However, the | ||
| following resources are screen dependant: | ||
| Changes from 0.62.1: | ||
| - bsetroot now sets _XROOTPMAP_ID, so pseudo transparent apps will be happy | ||
|
|
||
| session.screen<num>.strftimeFormat | ||
| session.screen<num>.workspaces | ||
| session.screen<num>.workspaceNames | ||
| session.screen<num>.toolbarRaised | ||
| session.screen<num>.focusModel | ||
| Changes from 0.62.0 to 0.62.1: | ||
| - the lock modifier code handles user redefined modifiers better | ||
| - check if the locale actually needs multibyte support before using multibyte | ||
| functions | ||
| - use srcdir in all of the makefiles | ||
| - added zh_CN (Chinese) nls support | ||
|
|
||
| where <num> is the screen number (zero being default and all that would be | ||
| present on a single screen/monitor setup). | ||
| - a utility named bsetroot (mentioned above) has been included in the | ||
| blackbox distribution, to aid in setting root window patterns (ala | ||
| xsetroot). the only different between xsetroot and bsetroot is that | ||
| bsetroot doesn't redefine cursors, and doesn't restore defaults if no | ||
| arguments are given. bsetroot does support multiple screens, and is ideal | ||
| for those setups (instead of running xsetroot for each screen) | ||
| Changes from 0.61.1 to 0.62.0: | ||
| - the immorel release | ||
| - added the ja_JP nls directory and man pages | ||
| - general code touchups | ||
| - blackbox-nls.hh is always generated even if --disable-nls is used. | ||
| This allows us to not have all of those hideous #ifdef NLS chunks. | ||
| Nothing to worry about, if you do not want NLS this does not affect you | ||
| - Workspace::placeWindow() cleanups. Also a speed bump from reducing the | ||
| use of iterator->current() and changing the delta from 1 to 8 | ||
| - cleanups to compile with g++ 3.0 | ||
| - make distclean actually removes Translation.m and blackbox-nls.hh. | ||
| Also fixed Makefile.am to pass --foreign instead of --gnu when calling | ||
| the autotools. | ||
| - fixed a desciptor leak in BScreen::parseMenuFile, seems opendir | ||
| lacked a matching closedir. | ||
| - fix transient window handling code in Workspace::removeWindow() so | ||
| transients give focus back to their parents properly. The code originally | ||
| handled sloppy focus then transient windows, so we just flopped the | ||
| if/elsif. This is immediately noticable with web browsers and their open | ||
| location windows. | ||
| - plugged a small leak in ~Toolbar | ||
| - fixed list::insert so you really can insert at item number 2. While there | ||
| I cleaned up the code a bit. | ||
| - added decoration to the atom state stored in a window | ||
| - fixed a typo in bsetroot.cc: 'on of' -> 'one of'. | ||
| - fixed the window menu gets left open when another window button is pressed | ||
| issue with a call to windowmenu->hide() in window->maximize() | ||
| - applied xOr's patch for decoration handling | ||
| - applied xOr's patch for the maximize, shade, unmaximize bug | ||
| - applied Kennis' patch for sending incorrect Slit configure notices | ||
| - BlackboxWindow's flags have been moved into a flags structure | ||
| - applied xOr's patch for border handling | ||
| - resizing a window turns off its maximized flag. Before a resized window | ||
| thought it was still maximized and maximizing a double action | ||
| - BlackboxWindow::withdraw no longet sets the state to Withdrawn. | ||
| This confused some X clients. | ||
| - updated the manpages and added Dutch NLS support (thanks Wilbert) | ||
| - added it_IT nls files, thanks Luca Marrazzo <marra.luca@libero.it> | ||
| - the menu file mentioned in the manpage is now based on DEFAULT_MENU | ||
| - configure script found basename in -lgen, but did not set HAVE_BASENAME | ||
| causing compilation problems on irix and possibly others. Added a call | ||
| to AC_DEFINE in AC_CHECK_LIB to fix this. | ||
| - menu is no longer installed, you need to copy it yourself | ||
| - cleaned up i18n code a little. Several member functions were declared | ||
| but never used and getMessage() had a default argument which was also | ||
| never used. | ||
| - i18n will now compile cleanly on machines without nl_types.h | ||
| - the lock modifiers no longer stop blackbox! | ||
| - maximize a window via bbkeys and the maximize button is not redrawn, fixed | ||
| - now exit with an error code if an unknown option is passed | ||
| - autoraise and multiple dialog windows yields segv bug fixed | ||
| also lengthened the default auto raise delay from 250 to 400 | ||
| - another iteration of autoraise and dialog box handling, this time we | ||
| noticed that nothing ever reset blackbox.focused_window to 0 when a window | ||
| was removed | ||
| - check if the window is visible before changeBlackboxHints() calls maximize | ||
| - placeWindow no longer takes edgeSnapThreshhold into account | ||
| - ignore style files ending in ~ | ||
| - support locale specifiers with @euro in them | ||
| - added Slovenian man pages and nls, thanks Ales Kosir | ||
| - Toolbar name editing buffer reduced to 128 chars, logic added to make sure | ||
| this buffer is not overrun | ||
| - added German nls files, thanks Jan Schaumann | ||
| - added my name to the code, updated the version output | ||
|
|
||
| Changes from 0.61.0 to 0.61.1: | ||
| - fixed some of the code to explicitly use colormaps so that when | ||
| blackbox decides to use a non-default visual everything will | ||
| still work (although it may look darn ugly) | ||
| - optimizations to the deiconify/raising code to (hopefully) deal | ||
| with a rather nasty bug, plus make things a little more efficient | ||
| - changed the code so that the close button is always redrawn on | ||
| button release events, just in case the client decides not to | ||
| close in response to the message (see Acroread) | ||
| - tinkered with the Makefiles again to make sure Blackbox | ||
| completely cleans up after itself during an uninstall | ||
| - fixed a glitch in window placement that was making Blackbox | ||
| place some larger windows at coordinates near 2**31 | ||
| - merged in a patch from nyz which fixed a bug with not sending | ||
| configure events when a window is both moved and resized (eg | ||
| when the left resize grip is used) as well as optimized some | ||
| of the show/hide code to use the stacking order | ||
| - fixed a bug in blackbox's support of the X shape extension... | ||
| it wasn't correctly resetting the bounding region after a window | ||
| was resized | ||
| - fixed a glitch with the geometry window where it would persist | ||
| if the client was unmapped while in motion | ||
| - tweaked the code for decorating transient windows so that it | ||
| is possible to use MOD1+Mouse3 to resize transients as long as | ||
| there is not some other reason to disable functions.resize | ||
|
|
||
|
|
||
| Changes from 0.60.3 to 0.61.0: | ||
| - added slightly updated copies of the blackbox/bsetroot manpages. | ||
| - reworked the Windowmenu code so that using the second mouse | ||
| button on the Send To menu moves you along with the window | ||
| - merged in bsd-snprintf.(h|c) from openssh so that Blackbox can | ||
| compile on older boxes without (v)snprintf in their standard lib. | ||
| - fixed a pair of problems where blackbox was not returning icons | ||
| and slit apps to a useable state at shutdown | ||
| - fixed a problem with menus not getting layered correctly after | ||
| a reconfigure or menu reload | ||
| - changed the behavior of the various MOD1+ButtonPresses on windows... | ||
| they should now be more consistent with the button behavior on the | ||
| decorations : | ||
| . MOD1+Button1 raises and moves the window (unchanged) | ||
| . MOD1+Button2 lowers the window (used to resize the window) | ||
| . MOD1+Button3 resizes the window (new button combo) | ||
| - fixed a small but _extremely_ annoying bug exposed by cvsup | ||
| - styled frames are now a thing of the past... the textures formerly | ||
| known as window.frame.(un)focus have been replaced by solid colors | ||
| window.frame.(un)focusColor... the thickness of the frame is now | ||
| determined by frameWidth, which will default to bevelWidth if not | ||
| specified | ||
| - middle clicking on a window in a workspace's window list now moves | ||
| the window to the current workspace | ||
| - fixed a minor glitch with the appearance of window labels for | ||
| certain newly-started apps (i.e. rxvt) | ||
| - added a new configure option for both the toolbar and the slit -- | ||
| autohide. Hopefully this should help quell the demands for the | ||
| removal of the toolbar... | ||
| - added code to better handle apps that change the window focus | ||
| - changed the command execution code (used to handle rootCommands | ||
| and executable menu items) to be more robust... compound commands | ||
| should now work | ||
| - a new-and-slightly-improved implementation of unstyled frames should | ||
| mean slightly better performance than previously | ||
| - fixed a couple of stupid bugs in the new code for handling | ||
| Solid Flat textures more efficiently | ||
| - fixed the nls makefiles so that they respect DESTDIR, behave better | ||
| if you reinstall over an existing installation, and actually remove | ||
| their files on a make uninstall | ||
| - added cthulhain's bsetbg script to the util directory... see the | ||
| file README.bsetbg for more information | ||
| - added Estonian, French and Danish translations | ||
|
