RPX NEWS


- 1.1 | 2010-02-02

  - bugfixes

    - [R] Call ‘switchwin’ also as a result of unmap, destroy.

    - [R] Reduce keyboard grabbing.

	RPX now interacts better with Firefox and other programs
	(over?)sensitive to keyboard grabbing.

    - [R] Allow binding keys with no associated keycode.

	Previously the KEY argument to ‘bind’ (and ‘definekey’) was
	required to be physically on the keyboard (i.e., to have an
	associated keycode).  Now that restriction is lifted.  This
	means you can do e.g.: "bind ihook windows", even if your
	keyboard has no "ihook" key.

    - [R] Do nothing for top-level keys with no associated keycode.

	Similar to above.  If a given key is not on the keyboard, then
	what's the point grabbing it?

    - [R] On screen resize, also resize help window.

    - [R] Disallow duplicate group names.

	Adding a group with the same name as a currently-defined one now
	results in a "group already exists" error.

    - [R] Disallow ‘swap’ of frames on different screens.

    - [R] Run hook ‘switchgroup’ on command ‘gdelete’.

    - Display correct fg/bg color names in ‘set’ output.

	This bug was introduced by ttn during the port.

    - [R] Synchronize state after tmp wm (command ‘tmpwm’) returns.

	The command ‘tmpwm’ now waits until RPX state can be
	synchronized with the server's cleanup after the tmp wm exits.
	This has been tested to with fvwm 2.5.18 (seems ok).

    - [R] Some commands do tab-completion at the Command: prompt.

	More precisely, the commands ‘addhook’, ‘alias’, ‘definekey’ and
	‘remhook’ now do tab-completion for their "command" arg.

  - new stuff

    - [R] New format characters

      - %M expands to "Maxsize", or nothing

      - %p expands to the ‘_NET_WM_PID’ value (integer), or "?"

    - [R] Handle ‘_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DIALOG’ window types as transient.

	That is, if a window has the property ‘_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE’ with
	(atom) value ‘_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DIALOG’, that window will be
	treated as transient, regardless of its ‘WM_TRANSIENT_FOR’
	property.

    - [R] By default bind ‘C-t P’ to ‘prevscreen’, ‘C-t N’ to ‘nextscreen’.

    - [R] For command ‘groups’, mark "other" group with "+".
    - [R] New command: gother

	Relatedly, on command ‘gdelete’, RPX selects the "other" group
	rather than the next in the (numeric id) series.

    - [R] New command: grename

    - [R] New commands: set fwcolor, set bwcolor

	With these commands you can specify the color of the window
	border for focused and unfocused windows, respectively.

    - [R] Set property ‘_NET_WM_NAME’ on each root window to "rpx".

    - [R] New commands: banishrel, ratinfo, ratrelinfo

  - small code and doc beautifications

  - maintenance uses Autoconf 2.65, Automake 1.11
