Goals for future releases of Openbox (THIS CAN AND WILL CHANGE):
|
|
2.0:
|
|
* Add XEventHandler class to make event handling better than ever!
|
|
|
|
* using std::string instead of char *'s. bool instead of Bool. proper consting
|
|
everywhere where appropriate. unsigned ints where appropriate. etc.
|
|
|
|
* support for NETWM atoms
|
|
|
|
* separate Font class with support for Xfonts, xfontsets, and xft.
|
|
|
|
3.0:
|
|
* reorganization of class model. Add XWidget class (contains an X drawable).
|
|
|
|
* key/mouse/action bindings
|
|
|
|
* break the themeing into a replaceable plugin/script of some form and possibly
|
|
also for the bindings.
|
|
|
|
4.0:
|
|
* have plugins/scripts for most everything as deemed appropriate.
|
|
|
|
Openbox TODO list:
|
|
* get translations for new NLS entries
|
|
|
|
* make Escape key cancel moving/resizing a window
|
|
|
|
* add asserts all throughout the code to catch bugs.
|
|
|
|
* convert char *'s to stl's std::string. ?? this is a memory leak like no other!
|
|
|
|
* make it possible to cycle workspaces by moving the mouse past the edge of
|
|
the desktop?
|
|
|
|
* make the wheel mouse functionality optional?
|
|
|
|
* add a modifer key which will scroll workspaces with the mousewheel even when
|
|
not on the root window?
|
|
|
|
* NETWM support (see http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/wm-spec/).
|
|
|
|
* handle keyboard input natively instead of relying on an external program?
|
|
|
|
* remappable bindings for keyboard input and for mouse input.
|
|
|
|
* snap to edges, all edges, including window edges
|
|
|
|
* port bbconf to Openbox.
|
|
|
|
* add a close button to root/pinned menus?
|
|
|
|
* add atoms for most everything in the window manager
|
|
e.g. add _BLACKBOX_STYLE and _BLACKBOX_MENU atoms so that bbtools, bbconf,
|
|
etc. can get the current path to the style in use and menu.
|
|
|
|
* when workspace name is greater than the width of its text area the toolbar
|
|
gets very ugly. I think what's really needed is a new toolbar entirely, which
|
|
can let apps dock in it (these would, of course then, be very tiny apps).
|
|
|
|
* get translations of Openbox into more languages.
|
|
|
|
* window stacking layers (i.e. always on top/bottom).
|
|
|
|
* draw non-opaque move/resize frames using the style's borderWidth.
|
|
|
|
* better support for window groups.
|
|
|
|
* support for Xft, to anti-alias text.
|
|
|
|
* suppert for XRENDER, and use it for making window decorations/menus/etc
|
|
translucent.
|
|
|
|
* fix any existant memory leaks, this is on-going forever.
