The gwm version 1.5 that will be included in the X11R4 tape is now on
expo.lcs.mit.edu and trinidad.inria.fr (there are no diffs with the old
version, the patch system was becoming a little bit out-of-sync)
I will be also posted on comp.sources.x
It should be a fairly stable version. I will now work on GWM v2.0, which will
be a major re-write... Please mail me what you think I should include
in this new version, which will be out in spring I think. (up to then there
will be only bug fixes and profiles for the 1.5)
I have renamed some of the files in the twm emulator of Arup Mukherjee to
be able to call it by a -f twm
I have supressed the need for external C programs for the rooms package
of Duane Voth.
Here are the changes from 1.4.1.30:
1.5 (89/11/24) X11R4 tape gwm
This is the version that will be included in the X11R4 tape
The standard profile has been cleaned up (some renaming of variables)
Inclusion of the TWM emulator by Arup Mukherjee and the rooms
package by Duane Voth.
The placement functions have been greatly enhanced with the new "rows"
package
NEW FUNCTIONS:
- trigger-error to jump to toplevel
- icon-name and starts-iconic context variable for placed menus
BUGS CORRECTED:
- no more errors on calls to XGrabPointer on R4
- bugs in resizing of menus when items were resized
COMPATIBLE ENHANCEMENTS:
- "-" is now n-ary
