News in 1.0rc:
* External tabs are back.
- option in Configure menu to enable/disable
No restart required.
* Added support for following atoms:
_NET_WM_MOVERESIZE
_NET_WM_STATE_DEMANDS_ATTENTION (flashing titlebar/iconbar)
_NET_WM_ALLOWED_ACTIONS
_NET_WM_ACTION_
_NET_WM_STATE_MODAL
_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_SPLASH
_NET_RESTACK_WINDOW
For a complete list of supported net wm atoms
go to: http://www.fluxbox.org/docs/ewmh-support.html
* Added new commands:
* ToggleCmd
Works like a macro but executes the commands one at the time in order.
Example:
Mod1 T :ToggleCmd {Exec xterm} {NextWindow}
When Mod1 T is press the first time it will start xterm, the second time
it will do NextWindow. When it reaches end it will start at the beginning.
* CloseAllWindows
Closes all windows.
* Supports urgency hint ( flashing titlebar/iconbar )
* Pressing shift while pressing enter in menu item will fake a right mouse
button press. Useful for increase/decrease values in menu.
* Updated documentation
* Flashing titlebar/iconbar when the window depamands attention with urgency
hint or using _NET_WM_STATE_DEMANDS_ATTENTION.
The blink rate can be configured with the following resource:
session.screen0.demandsAttentionTimeout: <timeout in milliseconds>
Default value is 500.
If the value is zero this feature will be disabled.
* Better UTF-8 handling
* fbrun: Move the cursor to the end when tab completing
(rfe #1333003, patch #1475578)
* Added option to reverse desktop wheeling (patch #1034287)
session.screen0.reversewheeling: true|false
* Vertical toolbar is back.
* Provide "Key Modes"
- New action in keys file:
Modifier Key :Keymode <Name> <End Modifier> <End Key>
Will define a keybinding namespace activated by the given mod/key
combination. The End Modifier and key are optional. They define
the key combination that quits the given key mode. They default
to just 'Escape'.
- New keys file optional prefix:
<Name>: Modifier Key :Command
will only work when the <Name> keymode is activated.
- <Name> is "default" if not specified - so:
**default commands will not be activated inside another keymode**
- Handy Example:
Mod1 X :KeyMode XNest
XNest: Mod1 X :KeyMode default
Will switch to XNest keymode when you press Alt-X. Then the
default bindings will not be caught by normal fluxbox, and will
pass through to an Xnested one! Groovy... Alt-X will switch back
to normal.
