This adds a configure option --disable-librsvg, but defaults to
using the library if it is present during configure.
When enabled, Openbox will attempt to load svg image files using
the library, similar to how Imlib2 is used for other image
formats.
Since librsvg uses the libXml2 library, their errors end up in
the same global namespace as Openbox config file parsing. To
avoid this, we reset the libXml current error whenever we start
loading a file, and save the last error that occurred when we
are finished, by storing the error in the ObtXmlInst.
Adds a new placement algorithm that finds a place on the monitor that overlaps
the least amount of windows as possible.
Original patch by Ian Zimmerman <itz@buug.org>.
Port to Openbox 3.5 by David Vogt <dv@adfinis.c>.
We run by default with a panel (default gnome-panel) and then run Openbox
without any panel if one cannot be found.
- Adds a fallback session for if a panel (default gnome-panel) not found.
- Removes notifications as a requirement. Seems to be a legacy thing judging
from the ubuntu .session files. Notifications are being provided by
notify-osd on modern systems, and you can't check for its presence in
gnome-session (gnome-classic.session always fails because it looks for it, so
ubuntu falls back to gnome-fallback.session).
Move the .desktop file parsing details into obt/ddparse.c, which generates
some hash tables holding the data of the file.
Add a new obt/link.c which will build an ObtLink from a parsed .desktop file,
and may support other ways to create these links in the unforseeable future
add /usr/libexec/openbox-autostart which runs the global/user scripts and
launches /usr/libexec/openbox-xdg-autostart (which runs .desktop autostart
stuff)
make openbox-session call openbox with --startup option, to make openbox launch
/usr/libexec/openbox-autostart *after* it is initialized.
add /etc/xdg/openbox/environment and ~/.config/openbox/environment files to let
user change environment variables (locale) for their Openbox session, which
openbox-session loads before running openbox.
This changes how the imagecache works, you can load an image into it directly,
or you can load it by name (then it will load it from a file on disk).
NOTE: The name part is incomplete, as it needs to use the freedesktop.org icon
spec to search for the right file. Also to resize it should look for another
icon on disk with the same name but different size (icon themes).
Image loading is done using the Imlib2 library.
I chose Imlib2 because it's pretty fast, it's easy to use, supports many file
formats (tested xpm, gif, jpeg, png) and doesn't introduce too much bloat (it
depends :)).
I ported the patch to 3.4.7-pre3 and added some enhancements. Caching is much
better now, and icons can be disabled at compile time using --disable-imlib2
option.
What's new?
Syntax of configuration files (namely rc.xml and menu.xml) has been changed
slightly to allow users to associate icons to menu entries. This is done by
specifying path to icon file in the new "icon" attribute in "<item>" element,
e.g:
<item label="Vim" icon="/usr/share/pixmaps/vim-32.xpm">
<action name="Execute"><execute>x-terminal-emulator -T Vim -e
vim</execute></action>
</item>
If user doesn't want to display any icons in his user-defined menus, he/she can
disable icons in rc.xml, inside "<menu>" section:
<menu>
...
<showIcons>no</showIcons>
...
</menu>
Default value is "yes".
(New boolean variable "config_menu_user_show_icons" has been added to source
code.)
An icon is loaded (using menu_item_attach_icon()) when a new entry of menu is
created. Fortunately, I haven't notice any performance problems because of this
:).
Set version stuff to 3.5.0-rc1.
Copy the CHANGELOG from 3.4-working.
Rename the obt-4.0 and obrender-4.0 pkgconfig stuff to obt-3.5 and obrender-3.5
Rename the "render" directory to "obrender" so that the public headers can be
installed in <obrender/*>
