Hi there, things get more and more stable and usable, thus it is time once again to release a new snapshot which can be downloaded from:
http://wmii.de/snaps/wmii-20060309.tar.gz (59kB) This snapshot contains many changes: - Fixed several crashing bugs (much more stable than yesterday's snap) - Implemented /ws/sel/sel/class (/client/X/class) file which contains the class:instance string of the specific client - tags which are prefixed with the '~' character have the effect that the specific client is forced to be floating - Transient windows have this prefix now - Implemented /def/class namespace which can be used to predefine specific tags for special class:instance definitions of clients, ie wmiir create /def/class/'Gimp:*' echo -n '~3' | wmiir write /def/class/'Gimp:*' which results that all Gimp windows will appear floating in tag 3. - If you don't supply any tag after the floating character (~), then an entry will only force that the specific class:instance is attached as floating, regardless the client, ie: wmiir create /def/class/Xterm:xterm echo -n '~' | wmiir write /def/class/Xterm:xterm which results that all xterms will be attached as floating and inherit the tag of the specific ws (or /def/tag if none exists). - If you apply a tag like '~1 2' to a client this will force wmii to show it floating in tag "1" and normal in tag "2". - wmiir create has been changed, it does not implies any write anymore (this is because one might want create directories) - the /bar/ namespace has been changed as well, the /bar/new mechanism is gone, instead you create labels through, ie wmiir create /bar/status This has the advantage that you can easily dynamically create remove labels. The labels are sorted alphabetically to its directory names defined in the create argument. - The mentioned bar change allows us to display all labels which are currently in use in the bar and you can simply click a label ($MODKEY-Control-t has been removed, because it is much simplier now). - $MODKEY-space sends the selected client to the floating layer, - $MODKEY-Shift-space sends the selected client to the first column (this allows moving clients between floating/managed layer) - a new restacking algorithm makes sure that floating clients are always top-most - fixed several focus issues recently reported Have fun && kindly regards, -- Anselm R.
