of the Xfce desktop environment and hopefully succeeds in fulfilling a number
of long time requests. Among the most notable updates is the new application
finder that merges the functionality of the old appfinder and xfrun4. The Panel
also has a new vertical mode [aka Deskbar] for better space usage on
wide-screen monitors and a new actions plugin. On the settings side the
settings helper is integrated in xfsettingsd, saving 1 running process. There
is also a reworked settings dialog with categories and pluggable dialogs
enabled by default. Basic Synaptics and Wacom settings in the Mouse settings
and a new MIME-Type editor. Thunar gained a more polished layout to reduce
space usage and more responsive interaction with the thumbnail generator.
Because we have not decided on how to merge the desktop functionality into
Thunar yet, Xfdesktop has instead received various improvements, including
single-click support, deskt
op icon thumbnails and better pasting of files. The Session Manager has
improved power management code, tips have been removed and cleanup sessions
from the interface. Last but not least, the Window Manager now has support for
tiling windows and arrow key navigation in the task switcher.'),
R_('Another big change for users is the removal of user
documentation of the packages and introduction of <a

the limited contribution of documentation since Xfce 4.8, so we hope the wiki
will attract more contributors. The help buttons in the interface still work,
but you\'ll be asked to open the documentation website in your web browser.'),

web application made release management a lot easier. We worked hard on
improving the situation of Xfce translators which led us to setting up our own
