What's new?
===========
1.10.99 "Carrera Rapida"
========================
* Bug Fixes
- Fix possibly wrong 'input-focus' from 'enter-*' focus-modes in
tabbed-windowing. [fuchur]
- Properly support tabbed-windowing when tiling is active
aswell. [fuchur]
- When installing manpages the 'mandir' from configure is now
honoured. [Christopher Bratusek]
- Fix handling symbol-type defcustoms in sawfish-xgettext,
preventing generation of new sawfish.pot. [Christopher
Bratusek]
* New Features
- 'CTWM' like interactive window placement. Previously pressing
any button while interactively placing a window would place
it. 'Sawfish' now mimics 'CTWM's behaviour: pressing button 1
will just place the window, button 2 will allow dragging to
resize the window and place it when the button releases,
button 3 will place the window and attempt to fill it to the
screen bottom. [Maxime Soulé]
- Add ability to move tabs around in the titlebar.
- Add 'marked-cursor-shape' defcustom (used when marking windows
for tabbing).
* Miscellaneous Changes
- Improve 'cabinet' window-switcher. Code-cleanup, bug fixes,
blacklisting applications (mostly panels, pagers) and icon for
missing window-icons. [fuchur]
- Enable 'shade-hover' and 'auto-raise' in SawfishConfig,
utilize them in tabbed-windowing.
- Improve icon size in StyleTab, add 'Flat' style. Also improve
speed and decrease memory usage by mirroring images [fuchur]
- Use 'menulibre' instead of 'alacarte' in XFCE and MATE
integration by default [fuchur]
- Do not let 'xfce-session' save the session (by adding '-f'
flag in XFCE integration) [fuchur]
- Tweak default compton settings. [fuchur]
- Improve doc strings in many modules [fuchur]
- Add 'html' target to man/Makefile, creating html-documentation
[Christopher Bratusek]
- Add 'make-changelog' script by Marcus D. Hanwell (generates
ChangeLog from git log) [Christopher Bratusek]
- Updated german translation. [fuchur]
- Updated RPM spec file. [Kim B. Heino]
- Updated Debian packaging scripts. [Christopher Bratusek]
