[chaz/openbox] / CHANGELOG.Blackbox

ChangeLog from Blackbox (this code's previous project):

Changes from 0.62.0 to 0.62.1:
  - the lock modifier code handles user redefined modifiers better
  - check if the locale actually needs multibyte support before using multibyte
    functions
  - use srcdir in all of the makefiles
  - added zh_CN (Chinese) nls support


Changes from 0.61.1 to 0.62.0:
  - the immorel release
  - added the ja_JP nls directory and man pages
  - general code touchups
  - blackbox-nls.hh is always generated even if --disable-nls is used.
    This allows us to not have all of those hideous #ifdef NLS chunks.
    Nothing to worry about, if you do not want NLS this does not affect you
  - Workspace::placeWindow() cleanups.  Also a speed bump from reducing the
    use of iterator->current() and changing the delta from 1 to 8
  - cleanups to compile with g++ 3.0
  - make distclean actually removes Translation.m and blackbox-nls.hh.
    Also fixed Makefile.am to pass --foreign instead of --gnu when calling
    the autotools.
  - fixed a desciptor leak in BScreen::parseMenuFile, seems opendir
    lacked a matching closedir.
  - fix transient window handling code in Workspace::removeWindow() so
    transients give focus back to their parents properly.  The code originally
    handled sloppy focus then transient windows, so we just flopped the
    if/elsif.  This is immediately noticable with web browsers and their open
    location windows.
  - plugged a small leak in ~Toolbar
  - fixed list::insert so you really can insert at item number 2.  While there
    I cleaned up the code a bit.
  - added decoration to the atom state stored in a window
  - fixed a typo in bsetroot.cc: 'on of' -> 'one of'.
  - fixed the window menu gets left open when another window button is pressed
    issue with a call to windowmenu->hide() in window->maximize()
  - applied xOr's patch for decoration handling
  - applied xOr's patch for the maximize, shade, unmaximize bug
  - applied Kennis' patch for sending incorrect Slit configure notices
  - BlackboxWindow's flags have been moved into a flags structure
  - applied xOr's patch for border handling
  - resizing a window turns off its maximized flag.  Before a resized window
    thought it was still maximized and maximizing a double action
  - BlackboxWindow::withdraw no longet sets the state to Withdrawn.
    This confused some X clients.
  - updated the manpages and added Dutch NLS support (thanks Wilbert)
  - added it_IT nls files, thanks Luca Marrazzo <marra.luca@libero.it>
  - the menu file mentioned in the manpage is now based on DEFAULT_MENU
  - configure script found basename in -lgen, but did not set HAVE_BASENAME
    causing compilation problems on irix and possibly others.  Added a call
    to AC_DEFINE in AC_CHECK_LIB to fix this.
  - menu is no longer installed, you need to copy it yourself
  - cleaned up i18n code a little.  Several member functions were declared
    but never used and getMessage() had a default argument which was also
    never used.
  - i18n will now compile cleanly on machines without nl_types.h
  - the lock modifiers no longer stop blackbox!
  - maximize a window via bbkeys and the maximize button is not redrawn, fixed
  - now exit with an error code if an unknown option is passed
  - autoraise and multiple dialog windows yields segv bug fixed
    also lengthened the default auto raise delay from 250 to 400
  - another iteration of autoraise and dialog box handling, this time we
    noticed that nothing ever reset blackbox.focused_window to 0 when a window
    was removed
  - check if the window is visible before changeBlackboxHints() calls maximize
  - placeWindow no longer takes edgeSnapThreshhold into account
  - ignore style files ending in ~
  - support locale specifiers with @euro in them
  - added Slovenian man pages and nls, thanks Ales Kosir
  - Toolbar name editing buffer reduced to 128 chars, logic added to make sure
    this buffer is not overrun
  - added German nls files, thanks Jan Schaumann
  - added my name to the code, updated the version output


Changes from 0.61.0 to 0.61.1:
  - fixed some of the code to explicitly use colormaps so that when
    blackbox decides to use a non-default visual everything will
    still work (although it may look darn ugly)
  - optimizations to the deiconify/raising code to (hopefully) deal
    with a rather nasty bug, plus make things a little more efficient
  - changed the code so that the close button is always redrawn on
    button release events, just in case the client decides not to
    close in response to the message (see Acroread)
  - tinkered with the Makefiles again to make sure Blackbox
    completely cleans up after itself during an uninstall
  - fixed a glitch in window placement that was making Blackbox
    place some larger windows at coordinates near 2**31
  - merged in a patch from nyz which fixed a bug with not sending
    configure events when a window is both moved and resized (eg
    when the left resize grip is used) as well as optimized some
    of the show/hide code to use the stacking order
  - fixed a bug in blackbox's support of the X shape extension...
    it wasn't correctly resetting the bounding region after a window
    was resized
  - fixed a glitch with the geometry window where it would persist
    if the client was unmapped while in motion
  - tweaked the code for decorating transient windows so that it
    is possible to use MOD1+Mouse3 to resize transients as long as
    there is not some other reason to disable functions.resize


Changes from 0.60.3 to 0.61.0:
  - added slightly updated copies of the blackbox/bsetroot manpages.
  - reworked the Windowmenu code so that using the second mouse
    button on the Send To menu moves you along with the window
  - merged in bsd-snprintf.(h|c) from openssh so that Blackbox can
    compile on older boxes without (v)snprintf in their standard lib.
  - fixed a pair of problems where blackbox was not returning icons
    and slit apps to a useable state at shutdown
  - fixed a problem with menus not getting layered correctly after
    a reconfigure or menu reload
  - changed the behavior of the various MOD1+ButtonPresses on windows...
    they should now be more consistent with the button behavior on the
    decorations :
            . MOD1+Button1 raises and moves the window (unchanged)
            . MOD1+Button2 lowers the window (used to resize the window)
            . MOD1+Button3 resizes the window (new button combo)
  - fixed a small but _extremely_ annoying bug exposed by cvsup
  - styled frames are now a thing of the past... the textures formerly
    known as window.frame.(un)focus have been replaced by solid colors
    window.frame.(un)focusColor... the thickness of the frame is now
    determined by frameWidth, which will default to bevelWidth if not
    specified
  - middle clicking on a window in a workspace's window list now moves
    the window to the current workspace
  - fixed a minor glitch with the appearance of window labels for
    certain newly-started apps (i.e. rxvt)
  - added a new configure option for both the toolbar and the slit --
    autohide. Hopefully this should help quell the demands for the
    removal of the toolbar...
  - added code to better handle apps that change the window focus
  - changed the command execution code (used to handle rootCommands
    and executable menu items) to be more robust... compound commands
    should now work
  - a new-and-slightly-improved implementation of unstyled frames should
    mean slightly better performance than previously
  - fixed a couple of stupid bugs in the new code for handling
    Solid Flat textures more efficiently
  - fixed the nls makefiles so that they respect DESTDIR, behave better
    if you reinstall over an existing installation, and actually remove
    their files on a make uninstall
  - added cthulhain's bsetbg script to the util directory... see the
    file README.bsetbg for more information
  - added Estonian, French and Danish translations


Changes from 0.60.2 to 0.60.3:
  - put in a (temporary?) fix for a bug with the new way icons are
    handled. Previously an icon was created only for non-transient
    windows, which means that 1) minimized transient windows were
    not getting cleaned up at shutdown, and that 2) one could
    conceivably lose access to a minimized transient if there were
    a break in the transient chain.

    For the time being, every iconified window gets an icon. In
    order to make this a little nicer, if a window doesn't provide
    an icon title, the window title is used in the icon menu, rather
    than 'Unnamed'.
  - fixed a bug in handling the destruction of intermediate
    transient windows. The code was leaving the transient of a
    destroyed window with a reference to the now non-existent
    window. This can lead to all sorts of problems.
  - fixed a slight positioning error when the slit is on the right
    side of the screen
  - included a new style, Minimal, which is designed for use on 8-bit
    displays. It tries to use a bare minimum of colors, and with the
    new code regarding Flat Solid, should consume very little memory.
  - made yet another alteration to the way focus changes after a window
    closes under ClickToFocus. Blackbox now tracks the stacking order of
    all windows and uses this information to give the focus to the topmost
    window.
  - new configure option :
        --enable-styled-frames   include support for fully-styled window
                                 frames -- these are the decorations which
                                 are affected by the window.frame* theme
                                 entries. This option is turned on by
                                 default.

                                 Because of the way they are implemented,
                                 these are typically the most memory and
                                 render intensive of the various blackbox
                                 decorations, even if they are typically
                                 only a pixel or so wide. Disabling this
                                 feature can result in a substantial
                                 decrease in X memory usage, but it's
                                 enabled by default to remain compatible
                                 with previous versions.

  - added a whole mess of logic so that blackbox will use
    XSetWindowBackground for Flat Solid textures instead generating
    a pixmap (which would be subsequently cached)... should help cut
    down some on the X memory usage
  - altered the behavior of the BImageControl timer... now it will
    fire every cacheLife minutes, regardless of when anything has
    been removed from the cache
  - modified the NLS build code yet again... at this point we've
    hopefully hit the least common denominator and it should work
    for everyone
  - dealt with a possible problem in the BlackboxWindow constructor
    where we referred to a member after deletion
  - removed a last lingering bit of the allocate()/deallocate() code
  - fixed a pair of string formatting problems


Changes from 0.60.1 to 0.60.2:
  - updated README.bbtools, since bbpager and bbkeys were updated to work with
    0.60.x (also removed the .diffs from the source tree)
  - fix for compiling with NLS support on Solaris
  - added Turkish, Russian and Swedish translations
  - applied patch for more correct Spanish translations
  - added completed pt_BR (Brazillian Porteguese) translation
  - removed mem.h and the allocate()/deallocate() calls throughout blackbox
    these have been unused for a long time, and needed to go away :)
  - compile fixes for --enable-debug
  - changed the font loading/drawing code... XFontSets are only used if
    the locale is set properly.  So you can still compile with nls support,
    but do not set your LANG environment variable, and your fonts will be
    loaded and drawn the old way
  - smarter Basemenu::drawItem() code added, i noticed alot of flicker when
    moving menus, because of code constantly redrawing menus items... this
    has been significatly modified and sped up quite a bit
  - fixed a bug where iconified windows wouldn't remove themselves from the
    icon menu when they unmapped/closed themselves (which would result in a
    crash if you selected this dead item)
  - fixed a potential crash in Workspace::removeWindow() that had relation
    to focus last window on workspace... one person experience gibberish being
    displayed, another experienced a crash
  - fixed a flicker problem when changing focus between windows rapidly
    (the toolbar's window label was getting redrawn twice per focus, not
    optimum behavior)
  - fixed the infamous bsetroot segfault... this was quite a feat... took 3
    people in excess of 8 hours to find... and it was a simple one line change


Changes from 0.51.3.1 to 0.60.1: (note:  0.60.1 is 0.60.0 non-alpha)
  - changed licensing for Blackbox from GNU GPL to more open BSD license
    see the file LICENSE
  - removed alot of empty files that did nothing but passify automake/autoconf
    Blackbox now passes --foreign to automake to lessen the requirements for
    files like NEWS,AUTHORS,COPYING,README,etc.
  - new configure options:
        --enable-ordered-pseudo this enables a new algorithm for dithering
                                on pseudocolor (8 bit) displays... a noticable
                                pattern is visible when using this.  you may or
                                may not like it... just something different
                                if you want it, but is turned off by default.

        --enable-debug          turn on verbose debugging output... this
                                isn't very complete or really very helpful...
                                right now it just describes memory usage and
                                tracks a few X event handlers... this is turned
                                off by default

        --enable-nls            turn on natural language support... this option
                                will turn on the use of catgets(3) to read
                                native language text from any of the supported
                                locales (see the nls/ directory for current
                                translations)...

                                This option also turns on the use of XFontSets,
                                which allows the display of multibyte
                                characters, like Japanese or Korean.
                                This option is turned on by default.

        --enable-timed-cache    turn on/off the new timed pixmap cache... this
                                differs from the old pixmap cache in that
                                instead of releasing unused pixmaps
                                immediately, it waits for <X> minutes, where
                                <X> is set with session.cacheLife in your
                                ~/.blackboxrc...  this option is turned on
                                by default.

  - changed the default menu to include a listing of workspaces (and their
    window lists) and the new configuration menu (see below)
  - included new default styles, contributed by regulars on
    irc.openproject.net's #blackbox
  - generated default "translation" catalog for the C/POSIX locale... the
    same catalog is used for English (en_US for now, will add others
    as necessary)
  - included translation for Spanish (es_ES) and Brazilian
    Portuguese (pt_BR)... if you are interested in doing a
    translation, email me at blackbox@alug.org
  - properties and hints added for communication with bbpager and bbkeys, the
    two most common "blackbox addons"
  - KDE 1.x support has been completely removed, pending approval of the new
    window manager specification to be used by KDE2 and GNOME
  - a (broken!) base for the new window manager spec was put in place, but
    using --enable-newspec will result in code that will not compile
  - added a timer class to handle internal timeouts without using
    getitimer/setitimer/SIGARLM... this will enable other things to be done,
    as any number of timers with any timeout can be used
  - Blackbox will search for the highest depth supported by each visual on
    each screen... basically this means that blackbox will try to use
    TrueColor if a TrueColor visual exists (but it's not the default visual)
  - menu hilite changed from being just a color to being a texture and new
    window decoration layout... as a result the style file syntax has changed,
    old styles for 0.5x.x will not work.  See the included styles for examples,
    and browse by http://bb.themes.org/
  - added support for enabled/disabled and selectable menuitems, this is for
    use in the configmenu mostly (but is used in the windowmenu)
  - added the Configmenu, which is insertable into your menu by using:

        [config] (Catchy Label)

    changes made in the configmenu take effect immediately, and are saved in
    your ~/.blackbxrc... current tunable settings:

        Focus model
        Window placement
        Image dithering
        Opaque window moving
        Full Maximization
        Focus New Windows
        Focus Last Window on Workspace

    the window placement and focus model options will be discussed below
  - added texture type "ParentRelative" which causes the decoration to display
    the contents of it's parent... this is a sort of pseudo-transparent option
    and doesn't work for all decorations... see the included style named
    "Operation" for an example of ParentRelative
  - added support for solid interlacing... for example:

        toolbar:                raised interlaced solid bevel1
        toolbar.color:          grey
        toolbar.colorTo:        darkgrey

    will cause the toolbar base to be draw with solid lines, one line grey,
    the next darkgrey, the next grey, the next darkgrey, ...
  - changed dithering algorithm for TrueColor displays from Floyd-Steinberg to
    an ordered dither... dithering at 8bpp (Pseudocolor) can be either FS or
    ordered, but must be selected at compile time...

    NOTE:  when using ordered pseudocolor (8bpp) dithering, your
    session.colorsPerChannel ***MUST*** be 4, otherwise your display will
    not display *any* correct colors
  - fixed TrueColor rendering to do aligned writes (suppresses warnings on
    Alpha Linux machines)
  - added support for GrayScale/StaticGray displays (completely untested)
  - made linked lists smarter, they can now have as many iterators assigned to
    them as you want... no more FATAL errors
  - added the Netizen class, which is a client that has 
    _BLACKBOX_STRUCTURE_MESSAGES listed in their WM_PROTOCOLS... these clients
    get notified of window add, remove, focus, shade, iconify, maximize,
    resize, etc.

    the two most common Netizens are bbpager and bbkeys
  - when loading an incomplete style, blackbox now uses default colors to
    draw decorations (instead of the annoying "see-through" effect)
  - added menu tag [config]... which inserts the Configmenu into your rootmenu
  - made [include] handling smarter, it will only read regular files (it
    won't read a directory in case you ever accidentally put one there)
  - the slit and toolbar menus now include a placement option, which will place
    them in various positions on the screen
  - included a slit menu option to choose it's direction (horizontal or
    vertical)
  - added options to the slit and toolbar menus to have them always stacked
    above other windows
  - right clicking on the workspace label no longer initiates a workspacename
    edit... right clicking anywhere on the toolbar brings up the toolbar menu,
    which has an entry that lets you change the workspace name
  - iconified windows no longer show up in the window list for the current
    workspace... just in the icon submenu
  - ClickToFocus now works like one would think, clicking anywhere in a window
    will focus it
  - overall... this version of blackbox has and does alot more than previously
    just take it for a test drive and see how well you like it


Changes from 0.50.5 to 0.51.0:
  - new default theme, shows off new gradients (see below)
  - many themes updated to show off new menu bullet configuration
  - added new source file Display.cc... it offers an easy way to connect to
    an X display and setup screen info, this was done to make life easier
    for John Kennis, the author of the bbtools.  Image.cc and Image.hh have
    been modified to use classes from this abstraction, so that drop in
    replacements are all that is necessary to update the bbtools image code.
  - configurable menu bullet... 2 new resources for in your style file:

        menu.bulletStyle:    (round|triangle|square|diamond|empty)
        menu.bulletPosition: (left|right)

  - new style resource for setting the borderWidth on menus, client windows and
    the buttons/frame/handle/titlebar... the default theme uses a borderWidth
    of zero... it's pretty neat
  - udpated Image code... blackbox now supports 8 types of gradients (thanks
    to mosfet@kde.org... in exchange for helping him get the diagonal gradient
    code from blackbox into kde, kde gave me the source to their new gradients)
    the 8 gradients are:

        diagonal, vertical, horizontal, crossdiagonal, pipecross, elliptic,
        pyramid, rectangle

    use them just like you would normally (ie. raised elliptic gradient bevel1)
  - merged John Kennis' patch for notifying KDE modules of windows that are
    raised/lowered/activated(focused)
  - new geometry window that is displayed when a window is moved/resized
  - cleaned up code for detecting slit apps
  - window stacking code changed to keep menus above windows, and to keep the
    slit raised when the toolbar is raised
  - fixed compiler error from gcc 2.95 about frame.frame in several places
  - fixed some bugs with shaped windows that set decorations via MWM hints,
    and also fixed bugs with such windows changing their shape
  - more complete ICCCM compliance, default window gravity is now NorthWest
    instead of Static...
  - focus code revamped... window focusing is alot faster and simpler, i
    mimicked the way TWM does it's focusing... proved much faster
  - the window menu always has "Kill Client" as an option now
  - fixed window stacking for windows that have multiple transients (like
    netscape)
  - smartplacement from 0.50.4 has been reinstated... i quickly grew tired of
    waiting on windows to be placed with the old version (if you like the way
    0.50.5 did it... send me an email and i'll consider making it an option)
  - added some new signal handling code (using sigaction, if available on your
    system)...
  - fixed some bugs with KDE support... this makes bbpager behave properly
  - workspace editing via the toolbar has been made a little nicer with the
    new focus code... right clicking on the workspace label will put you into
    edit mode, but no windows can be focused until you leave edit mode...
    ALSO... the window that had focus when you entered edit mode will have the
    focus returned to it after editing is finished
  - added new option to blackbox... -rc <filename> will read <filename> instead
    of .blackboxrc for it's base configuration
  - the option for opaque window moves has been moved from the stylefile into
    .blackboxrc... set the session.opaqueMove: resource to True or False,
    depending on what you want
  - general namespace cleanups... just stuff to make maintaining the code a
    little easier...
  - any form of "beta" has been removed from the version number for 0.51.x
    i am declaring this series as "stable" so that i can begin a major overhaul
    of blackbox, which will be done with John Kennis and Jason Kasper, two
    very sharp guys that think the same way i do ;)


Changes from 0.50.4. to 0.50.5:
  - modified and merged some patches from several contributors.  added their
    names to AUTHORS
  - major documentation updates
  - added a few more platform success reports.  changed development platform
    again :)
  - added new texture option: Interlaced... it is an extension to the gradient
    texture that looks really neat... it is compiled in by default but may
    be removed with --disable-interlace
  - let's see... where do i begin... the code for 0.51.x has been GREATLY
    enhanced over 0.50.4 (and the stupid little compile error for KDE has been
    fixed ;))  Blackbox has undergone major renovation... and i can proudly
    say that this release is rock solid.  Also, i reinstated ccmalloc's tour
    of duty, and spent several days with it stomping memory leaks in blackbox.
    i can proudly say that there are no major memory leaks present in 0.51.x
  - the toolbar has changed it appearance a little bit... the menu button has
    been removed and the labels and buttons are now symmetrically placed on the
    toolbar...  oh no!? how do you get to your icons/workspaces now?  the
    middle click patch from Greg Barlow has been modified, enhanced and merged
    with 0.51.x... the workspace menu now behaves just like the root menu...
    and it can be pinned to the root window (just move it)
  - the image code has once again been worked over... this time a local LUG
    friend and i have hashed it out many times and into the wee hours of the
    morning... this stuff is FAST now... before i added interlacing... we
    had doubled the speed of the dgradient function... yes... *doubled*
  - the code to generate error tables, color tables and other tables that are
    used in image dithering has been rewritten, which severs the last tie to
    window maker's wrlib that blackbox had.  i now understand why and how all
    the code that i "borrowed" works... and it's been improved... because of
    this change... dithering is a lot cleaner... and dithering on 8bpp displays
    is less grainy and less obtrusive...
  - the linked list code has also been rewritten... blackbox has been using
    a doubly linked list, and not taking advantage of all the list's
    capabilities (because it doesnt need them)... so the linked lists are now
    single-link and much quicker at inserting, removing, searching...
  - once again... the menu parsing code has been rewritten... this code is
    very efficient and very extensible... so extensible infact that after
    implementing the current menu syntax... i added a new tag! you can now
    insert the workspaces list into your root menu with this:

        [workspaces] (descriptive label)

  - the slit menu is now spacially correct... if you want the slit in the top
    right corner of the root menu... click the top right corner of the slit
    menu... i think this is a little more user friendly
  - window gravity should be better supported now... restarts and what not
    shouldn't produce all those one pixel shifts or moves anymore...
  - the modifiers for the keygrabs in blackbox are now configurable...
    the "keys" are still hard wired (left/right for workspace changing, tab
    for window cycling)... but you may now configure which modifiers to use
    with the key combos...  this introduces two new resources into your
    .blackboxrc:

        session.workspaceChangeModifier

    and

        session.windowCycleModifier

    these resources may be set to any combination of the following:

        Control Mod1 Mod2 Mod3 Mod4 Mod5 Lock Shift

    also... for convenience... "Alt" is parsed as "Mod1"...
    session.workspaceChangeModifier defaults to "Control" and
    session.windowCycleModifier defaults to "Mod1"
  - smart placement has been made smarter thanks to Dyon Balding's smarter
    placement patch... this patch has been modified from the original slightly
    (mostly speed concerns)
  - signal handling has been made more robust... this allows it to compile on
    more platforms and now prefers to use sigaction() over signal()
  - over all... many code clean ups were made and old commented code was
    purged... this is a very clean very stable release... enjoy people :)


Changes from 0.50.3 to 0.50.4:
  - changed some Copyright information to include the current year
  - added a number of platforms to the Supported Platforms section of the
    README
  - added the Slit... the Slit is a window maker dockapp util that lets users
    use all of applications with Blackbox, and allows users to easily switch
    between Window Maker and Blackbox more easily... it is included by default,
    but you can remove it from the source with --disable-slit on your configure
    command line
  - large Brueghel styles and images removed from the base distribution
  - merged a patch from Benjamin Stewart for very robust menu parsing... this
    patch allows for parenthesis in menu files, and works well for
    automatically generating menus from shellscripts and programs... the menu
    syntax has not changed... it just is understood better :)
  - added shell style tilde-slash (~/) home directory expansion for the
    [include] and [style] tags in menu files
  - added some sanity to window position/gravity code to for GTK applications
  - added Window Maker style Mod1+MouseButton1+Motion window moving (for those
    few braindead apps that like to be positioned where no decorations are
    visible)
  - added a SIGCHLD handler to clean up processes started by a startup script
    that then exec's blackbox (gets rid of all those zombie processes)
  - added a new resource to .blackboxrc which tells Blackbox where to put the
    Slit... editing your .blackboxrc to change this is discouraged and
    discarded, as the Slit has a menu that lets you select where to put it
    (click any mouse button on the slit and see for yourself)
  - fixed a bug in the workspace renaming feature that ate all Shift keypresses


Changes from 0.50.2 to 0.50.3:
  - few documentation updates
  - fixes to let -lgen actually get linked with the executable (fixes compile
    errors on some platforms, most notably, IRIX 6.5)
  - a new series of styles has been added to the distribution (this accounts
    for the increased size)
  - fix to let 16 color servers run blackbox (colormap reduction)
  - various bug fixes... numerous strncpy's changed to sprintfs...
  - default font set internally to "fixed" (to let it run on servers that don't
    have any fonts installed)
  - fixed bug to let blackbox remove all but the last workspace (instead of the
    last two)
  - window gravity offset changes
  - the default key grabs have changed... there are now 4: alt-tab,
    shift-alt-tab, ctrl-alt-right, ctrl-alt-left... these keys perform
    as would be expected
  - fixed wire move bug for transient windows
  - passified error handing for the main window class
  - fixed gravity restore for restart/exit purposes


Changes from 0.50.1 to 0.50.2:
  - minimal KDE integration (configure/compile time option, turned off by
    default).  This is unfinished and i can't really say if i ever will finish
    it, but there is enough there to integrate the panel and other modules
    with Blackbox.
  - changed the regexp in building menus to use a comma (,) as the separator,
    instead of a period
  - various bug fixen (like the one where the window list would stay put after
    the workspace menu went away)
  - some hacks to improve speed in the LinkedList routines
  - new stacking method (to better integrate with the KDE support)... windows
    are no longer in different "levels", raising windows brings them ALL the
    way to the front (so it's possible to obscure override redirect windows
    like image splashes etc.) and lowering throws them ALL the way to the
    back (even under kfm's icons)... however, the rootmenu and the toolbar
    (if configured to be ontop) will be placed above raised windows
  - sticky windows have changed due to the new stack implementation, they can
    be anywhere in the stack (and not always ontop or onbottom)
  - session.screenNUM.toolbarRaised resource has changed to
    session.screenNum.toolbarOnTop
  - the workspace label in the toolbar is sized a little more sanely now
    (i found that it looks the best when the workspace label width == clock
    label width)
  - colormap focus now has it's own resource, session.colormapFocusModel, which
    is set to "Click" by default, which means you have to click a window's
    decorations or the root window to (un)install a colormap... setting this
    resource to "FollowsMouse" will work just as it says... the window under
    the pointer will have it's colormap installed


Changes from 0.50.0 to 0.50.1:
  - eliminated the need for XConvertCase... workspace editing should now print
    any and all characters correctly
  - added check for libgen.h (which provides the prototype for basename() on
    some systems, like OpenBSD)
  - some code obfuscation (i've been removing comments, as some of them don't
    relate to some of the code below them... i plan on recommenting the code
    some time soon)
  - clicking button 3 will hide ANY menu now, and in the case of the workspace
    and or client menus, any other menus and/or buttons associated will be
    closed as well
  - added a patch for multi-screen which sets the DISPLAY env variable so that
    items selected from one screen don't show up on another... many thanks to
    F Harvell <fharvell@fts.net> for this
  - fixed a clock bug... again thanks to F Harvell for this one
  - complete and proper window placement and window restore has been
    implemented... windows that are partially off screen will be placed in the
    center of the root window
  - the toolbar's workspace label is now dynamically sized according to the
    length of the workspace names
  - as stated above... workspace name editing has been completely redone, i
    discovered XLookupString() this weekend and have deemed it the function of
    the week... any and all characters should be printed properly now
  - window placement now has it's own resource...
    session.screen<NUM>.windowPlacement which may be set to SmartPlacement
    (which has been implemented) or anything else to default back to cascade
    placement
  - a new resource, session.screen<NUM>.toolbarWidthPercent has been added, and
    should be set to an integer representing what percentage of the root window
    width the toolbar should occupy (default has been changed back to 67)


Changes from 0.40.14 to 0.50.0:
  - added util/ subdirectory to place small, utility programs to use in
    conjunction with blackbox.
  - updated the README... it's still vague and useless, but gives a better
    view of whats going on
  - the configure script now checks for a few more headers, setlocale and
    strftime in addition to basename functions to better include support for
    multiple arch/langs/etc.
  - updated default menu file... made it a little more general... and made
    the default style menu [include]'d instead of explicitly included...
    this break off of the style menu allows for custom menus to include the
    default style menu for a create selection of styles
  - changed all the default styles to use bsetroot instead of xsetroot
  - menu handling has been improved... no more than one menu at a time may be
    visible on the desktop (save for the root menu and it's tear off menus)
    this means that you can't have multiple window menus and the workspace menu
    open all at once... which saves screen space and reduces clutter
  - much of the code has been reorganzied and reformatted for better
    readability... this consists of function name changes and function
    "ownership" (which basically means workspaces aren't managed by the toolbar
    itself anymore, but by a general screen class on which the toolbar can
    operate)
  - the workspacemenu now autohides when selecting a window from one of the
    window lists
  - removed many empty destructors for Basemenu subclasses to improve code
    readability
  - two new files, Screen.cc and Screen.hh, have been added to the distribution
    they add the new class BScreen which was needed for the biggest change of
    the Blackbox code base, the addition of multiple screen (i.e. multihead)
    support.  A separate BScreen is created for each screen, and all screens
    work inconjunction with the other... windows can't be passed between
    screens, because the X server doesn't allow this (more investigation on
    this later)
  - the toolbar's clock format is now controlled by the strftime() function...
    if configure can't find this function on your system, the old date/time
    format is used... with strftime, clicking on the clock doesn't display the
    date... as the date may now be part of the clock display... read the man
    page for the strftime function to write a format string for your clock,
    and place it in .blackboxrc (i.e.
      session.strftimeFormat: %I:%M %p on %a, %b %d is my strftime format
    string)
  - the toolbar has been stripped of it's workspace responsibilities, but this
    change has no effect on the end user.
  - common code interspersed through out the code has been consolodated into
    small functions and called multiple times instead of having the same or
    similar code repeated in the same class
  - the window startup code has been improved upon again so that shaded windows
    are restored between restarts
  - some ICCCM code has been updated to properly reflect the state of windows
    while shaded or on different workspaces... this state code change should
    also fix the JX toolkit problem of deiconifying and nothing being redrawn
  - the main Blackbox class has been changed to purely handle X events... it
    doesn't manage resources (save for those necessary for proper event
    handling, like the focus model for each screen)
  - the format of .blackboxrc has changed slightly, the session.menuFile,
    session.doubleClickInterval, session.imageDither, session.styleFile,
    and session.colorsPerChannel resources are unchanged.  However, the
    following resources are screen dependant:

        session.screen<num>.strftimeFormat
        session.screen<num>.workspaces
        session.screen<num>.workspaceNames
        session.screen<num>.toolbarRaised
        session.screen<num>.focusModel

    where <num> is the screen number (zero being default and all that would be
    present on a single screen/monitor setup).
  - a utility named bsetroot (mentioned above) has been included in the
    blackbox distribution, to aid in setting root window patterns (ala
    xsetroot).  the only different between xsetroot and bsetroot is that
    bsetroot doesn't redefine cursors, and doesn't restore defaults if no
    arguments are given.  bsetroot does support multiple screens, and is ideal
    for those setups (instead of running xsetroot for each screen)


Changes from 0.40.12 to 0.40.13:
        - added some compile time parameters to allow for clean compiling
        - added support for vertical/horizontal maximization (i did this by
          hand, but kudos to John Martin for the idea ;)
        - added basename() to the distribution... it will only be compiled in
          if basename is not present in standard libraries
        - window focus code has changed yet again... i've decided to completely
          rewrite the focus handling code, instead of trying to fix it... let
          me know how this does
        - a new resource has been added to the style loader... a resource of
          the form:  rootCommand: <shell command string> will execute this
          command when the style is loaded, suitable for setting the root
          window background to an image/pattern/color... this should make
          style integration more seamless


Changes from 0.40.11 to 0.40.12:
        - more migration to autoconf/automake/autoheader etc.
        - changed the default installation prefix... /usr/local is now the
          default... all default config files will be stored in
          ${prefix}/share/Blackbox... any old files will not be used, and
          should be removed
        - a small internal rework has made the "Inverted" option for
          pressed button textures obsolete... please update your configs
        - Makefile.generic has been removed
        - Laurie's tear off menu patch has been adapted into the source tree...
          sorry Laurie, but i had to rework your patch to make it completely
          bullet proof ;)
        - rework of Image code... resizes and maximizations should be much
          faster now
        - existance of XConvertCase is checked by configure... if it is NOT
          found, then when editing the workspace name, pressing shift will
          not print capital letters... sorry... get an uptodate X distribution
          (R6.3 or higher) so that XConvertCase exists...
        - the date format on the clock is controlled by a new .blackboxrc
          resource... session.dateFormat... accepted values are:
                American ( mm/dd/yy )  and
                European ( dd.mm.yy )
          the default is american... if any other string is entered for the
          resource, blackbox defaults again to american...
        - changed some window positioning code so that windows aren't thrown
          to the middle of the screen unless they are completely hidden when
          shown
        - time bugs have been fixed... this is too detailed to go into... so
          read the source if you are curious, otherwise just hit Reconfigure
          when ever you change the system time, and blackbox will update and
          continue to monitor/display the correct time (also... wrt y2k...
          blackbox is y2k compliant is your libc's localtime() is y2k
          compliant)
        - this release has a major internals rework... let me know of any
          problems... i would also love to hear about improved/degraded
          performance... enjoy people... 


Changes from 0.40.10 to 0.40.11:
        - changed the blackbox distribution to use autoconf instead of
          imake... let me know how this works
        - removed all the Imakefiles and Imakeconfig in favor of autoconf...
        - added necessary files for automake and autoconf
        - fixed a bug that would automatically shift focus to the workspace
          label after switching to an empty workspace which would edit the
          workspace name if pressing ctrl-arrow...
        - fixed a bug that wouldn't focus any windows with alt-tab after
          switching workspaces
        - new feature:  click button 1 on the clock to display today's date
          releasing the mouse button redraws the current time
        - implemented double-click window shading by adapting David Edwards'
          <david@dt031n1a.tampabay.rr.com> shade patch
        - added new .blackboxrc resource - session.doubleClickInterval - which
          controls the time between double clicks... used by the double-click
          shade feature... defaults to 250ms is not specified


Changes from 0.40.9 to 0.40.10:
        - fixed the broken menu highlights - they are now a dot in front of
          the menu label
        - enhanced the image rendering code to prebuild dithering lookup
          tables... this saves some multiply and divide instructions during the
          rendering loop... it makes a noticable difference on my lowly p133 ;)
        - just for completeness... i've added some error output for various
          things that could (but rarely do) go awry
        - the focus code has been updated yet again... but this time it's for
          the better ;)  the ctrl arrow keys continue working after a window
          has been closed etc. etc... this should be the final change... unless
          i find more bugs in it


Changes from 0.40.8 to 0.40.9:
        - fixed a menu bug to keep as much of the menu on screen as possible
        - added a patch from Peter Kovacs <kovacsp@egr.uri.edu> to raise the
          current focused window when the user clicks on the window label on
          the toolbar
        - changed some window gravity defaults... nothing major here
        - focus handling code has been spruced up... and majorly tested...
          0.40.8's focus code was about as good as a full tank of gas but
          no corvette... let me know how the focus handles in 0.40.9


Changes from 0.40.7 to 0.40.8:
        - more menu fixes... highlights are handled as normal... constant
          highlights are draw differently... the rounded edges minus the
          highlighted bar...
        - hand strength reduction in the BImage::renderXImage() method...
          this doesn't offer much of a speed up... but every little bit
          counts
        - stuck clients that open transients now have their transients stuck
          by default
        - changed some input focus code to better handle the sloppy focus
          model... the little annoyances like two focused windows should now
          be fixed...
        - removed gcc specific code... changed use of strsep to strtok (which
          is defined by ANSI C)
        - this is strictly a maintainence release... no new features have
          been introduced


Changes from 0.40.6 to 0.40.7:
        - changed bhughes@arn.net to bhughes@tcac.net throughout the source
          tree
        - menu sanity fixes... like unmapping a submenu when an item is removed
        - image code fixes... no memory is allocated during the rendering...
          only when the BImage is created... thanks to lee.salzman@lvdi.net for
          the frame work for these changes
        - fewer floating point division in gradient rendering routines... again
          thanks to lee.salzman@lvdi.net for the basis of these changes
        - reading workspace names is now a little more robust, but probably not
          bullet proof... events are handled normally while reading the
          workspace name... instead of blocking them all... the label changes
          color... and reverts back to normal when enter is pressed (which
          applies the new workspace name)
        - the window geometry label drawn during window resizing has moved to
          inside the window frame, this allows us to see what size windows are
          being resized to when the right edge is close to the edge of root
        - a lock system has been implemented for the blackbox objects... this
          fixes a nasty little problem of stale windows (decorations with no
          client window) because of on object grabbing the server and another
          unlocking it... the current system works similar to XLockDisplay
          (which is used in threaded X programs).
        - icccm code enhancements for XWMHints and NormalHints
        - window maximizing now properly returns the maximized client to its
          previous location (this is a bug fix... maximize netscape, then
          maximize an xterm... unmaximizing netscape will put it where the
          xterm was previously)


Changes from 0.40.5 to 0.40.6:
        - the workspace and client menus now keep the current workspace and
          focus window highlighted so that we know which window is in focus
          (especially useful with multiple xterms in the same workspace)
        - image dithering code has been updated slightly to hopefully squeeze
          every last drop of performance out of it
        - pixel computation has been simplified
        - gradient code has been changed to use less floating point division
          this breaks Jon Denardis' gradient hack, but the option has been
          left in place in case Jon wants to re-implement it :)
        - more ICCCM compliance code added... window colormap focus has a
          click-to-focus policy... any window that wants to use it's own
          colormap (i.e.  netscape -install) will have it's colormap installed
          when button1 is pressed anywhere on the decorations (like when
          raising)  the default root colormap is reinstalled when pressing
          button1 on the root window
        - workspace names can now be changed on the fly... they are stored in
          the users ~/.blackboxrc file, and may be edited from there, although
          any changes made to the file will be over written when blackbox is
          shutdown or restarted...
        - workspace names can be edited *while blackbox is running* by pressing
          button3 on the workspace label on the toolbar... pressing enter ends
          the edit and normal event processing resumes... these names are saved
          on exit/restart for convienence
        - support for window gravity has been added... this is addition is
          another step closer to complete ICCCM compliance
        - window resizing is a bit more sane now... a bug once pointed out long
          ago that i never noticed plagued me the other day... when resizing a
          window to a large size... blackbox can delay a bit while it renders
          the new decorations... if the user tries to move the window before
          these decorations are finished... the window is resized again... this
          has been fixed


Changes from 0.40.4 to 0.40.5:
        - updated the default style to reflect the button resource change in
          0.40.4
        - added internal menu alignment
        - added internal linked list insertion at a certain point, used in
          menus
        - submenus now update their parent menu to reflect that the submenu
          is no longer open
        - right clicking anywhere on the rootmenu or window menus will now
          unmap them... NOTE: this doesn't work on submenus or the rootmenu
          or on the SendToWorkspaceMenu
        - cleaned up some of the image rendering code to use less comparisons
          while rendering an image... also removed alot of
          multiplication/division use in beveling loops to increase speed
        - changed dithering error distribution to make images smoother at
          15 and 8bpp (8bpp got the most benefit from this change)
        - changed the toolbar appearance... removed the raise/lower button,
          changing the level of the toolbar isn't possible as of yet... a new
          button has been added on the left of the toolbar, pressing it will
          map the workspace menu, which has a few changes
        - the workspace menu now conatins submenus of all the window lists of
          all workspaces... it is now possible to see which window is on which
          workspace... also... the icon button has been removed from the
          toolbar and the iconmenu is now a submenu of the workspace menu
        - window placement has been slightly modified... if clients request a
          certain position, the request is honored, otherwise the client is
          cascaded... if either the cascade or requested position obscures part
          of the window when the window is created, the window is centered in 
          the root window...
        - window state updated... when blackbox is restarted, all client
          windows are placed on the workspace they were previously occupying...
          this is only between restarts... not when X is restarted...
          however... applications may be coded specifically for blackbox to
          start on a certain workspace... for more information on this, email
          me
        - window menu placement has been made a little more sane


Changes from 0.40.3 to 0.40.4:
        - removed the window.handle{.color,.colorTo} resources... the handle
          is now treated as a button, and uses the button resources
        - added window.focus.button and window.unfocus.button resources to the
          style file... this allows colors to be set different from the
          titlebar... the colors are controlled with window.focus.button.color,
          window.focus.button.colorTo, window.unfocus.button.color and
          window.unfocus.button.colorTo
        - transient focus policy has changed... if any window has an open
          transient window... focus is awarded to the trasient instead of the
          parent window, even if the mouse doesn't occupy the trasient window
        - cleaned up some namespace in Basemenu.cc and Basemenu.hh
        - changed dithering error diffusion
        - fixed Bevel2 so that it doesn't sig11 anymore
        - changed stacking code slightly... "stuck" windows now are placed
          in relation to the toolbar... i.e. if the toolbar is on top... stuck
          windows are on top of any other client windows... if the toolbar
          is underneath client windows... stuck windows are also stacked
          underneath the client windows
        - major reworking of Window.cc and Window.hh to fully support the
          _MOTIF_WM_HINTS on client windows... if this hint is present... then
          the window is decorated according to those hints... all the move/
          resize/configure code had to be updated because of this... one step
          closer to gnome compliance
        - window menus now contain different items based on the functions
          available to the client window... if a window cannot be maximized...
          then no maximize item is present in the window menu... also, "Close"
          and "Kill Client" are no longer present at the same time... if the
          client supports the WM_DELETE_WINDOW Protocol, then "Close" is
          present, "Kill Client" is only present for clients that do not
          support the protocol
        - windows may now be moved by the titlebar, handle or thin border
          around the window... window menus are also accessible by pressing
          button 3 on any of these 3 windows
        - a new focus model has been added... it works... but is mostly
          untested... session.focusModel: AutoRaiseSloppyFocus in .blackboxrc
          will retain the sloppy focus model... but raise windows to the
          top when focused...


Changes from 0.40.2 to 0.40.3:
        - fixed a bug in Blackbox::nextFocus that would put blackbox into an
          infinite loop when 2 windows where open, window 0 was iconified and
          window 1 had focus and pressing alt-tab or the next window button
          on the toolbar
        - completely recoded all the graphics stuffs to support all visual
          classes and color depths, also the image code is more compact and
          faster than previous releases
        - removed graphics.cc and graphics.hh from the distribution and added
          Image.cc and Image.hh for the new graphics implementation.  a new
          class called BImageControl is now in charge of all pixmap caching
          and color allocation on displays that don't run/support TrueColor...
          this takes the job away from the Blackbox class... whose job is now
          to manage all it's children and disperse events read from the display
        - fixed bug that didn't handle windows created before blackbox is
          running (again :/)


Changes from 0.40.1 to 0.40.2:
        - added a variable initialize line of code to keep blackbox from
          splattering from a sigsegv on startup


Changes from 0.35.0 to 0.40.1:
        - cosmetic menu rendering fixes, changed the way the submenu dot is
          sized; changed an off by one error in drawing the rounded edges;
          fixed the text to be draw in the center of the item instead of at the
          bottom
        - major changes to the toolbar (formerly the workspace manager) to
          change the way it looks and works.  The large blank space is gone,
          and the toolbar is now half the height it used to be (roughly). the
          workspace label displays the current workspace, with the workspace
          menu accessible by clicking button 1 on the label. the two buttons
          directly to the right of the workspace label change the workspace
          when pressed. the window label displays the current focused window,
          which makes it easier to identify which window has input focus (for
          some people like me that have very dark or very closely colored
          decorations).  the window menu is accessible by pressing button
          one on the window label, and selecting an item from the window menu
          will set input focus to that window (if it can receive focus). the
          two buttons to the right of the window label circulate focus (up and
          down, respectively) through the window list, skipping windows that
          cannot receive focus.  the icon button displays a menu of all
          iconified applications.  both the icon menu and the window menu will
          not become visible if they are empty.  the next button on the toolbar
          is a raise/lower button for the workspace manager. the toolbar is
          stacked on startup according to the resource set in ~/.blackboxrc,
          but this button will raise and lower the workspace to the users
          desire, saving the stack order when blackbox is exited or restarted.
          the clock is still the same, but editing the session.clockFormat
          will change it from normal time (session.clockFormat: 12) to 24hour
          format (session.clockFormat: 24)
        - a pixmap cache has been implemented. a linked list stores all images
          rendered, removing them from the list and freeing them with the X
          server when all applications have removed references to them. for
          those who start man instances of the same applications will benefit
          greatly from this, as the same decorations are not redraw for each
          and every window.  this greatly reduces the load on the X server
          (my X server went from taking 20-28mb of memory to 8-11mb, a dramatic
          improvement, especially on this 32mb machine).  as a result of this,
          reconfiguring is faster, as is startup and restarting.
        - click to focus has been implemented, with some restrictions. other
          window managers allow the user to click anywhere on the decorations
          OR the client itself to set focus.  i have not found an elegant way
          to do this yet, so focus can only be set by pressing button 1 on
          the decorations (like the titlebar, handle, buttons, border, etc.)
          just not on the client itself.  i am looking more into this, but
          don't expect anymore than what is in place now.  to use
          click-to-focus, put session.focusModel: ClickToFocus in ~/.blackboxrc
        - 2 new commands have been added to the menu syntax, [include] and
          [style]... the [reconfig] command still has the option to reconfigure
          after a command has been run, but probably will be faded out...
          [include] (/path/to/file) includes the file inline with the current
          menu, meaning that a submenu isnot created for the separate file,
          if a submenu is desired, the file should include the [submenu] and
          [end] tags explicitly.
          [style] is a new addition for the style file support. syntax is:
          [style] (label here) {/path/to/style/file} which will read the new
          style file and reconfigure when selected.
        - style files have been added to allow for easier switching between
          configurations.  the style file resources are dramtically different
          from those in 0.3x.x, see app-defaults/Blackbox-style.ad for an
          example...
        - with the addition of style files, menus have been given their own
          justification resource, allowing (for example) menus to be left
          justified while titles are center or right justified.
        - please read the sample configuration files in app-defaults/ for the
          new and improved configuration system.  NOTE: Blackbox.ad is a
          sample ~/.blackboxrc, but you shouldn't copy this file to
          ~/.blackboxrc, as Blackbox will store the resources it needs
          automatically
        - an unofficial release numbered 0.40.0 was given out to some 
          testers, and even this release needs the same treatment as 0.35.0
          with respect to the new config system (0.40.0 only implemented the
          pixmap cache, the new toolbar and *part* of the new config system,
          but not the style files or automatic generation of ~/.blackboxrc)


Changes from 0.34.5 to 0.35.0:
        - changed the way menus are draw to round both end of the highlight...
        - cosmetic enhancements for the various justifications...
        - this is the first stable release of blackbox


Changes from 0.34.4 to 0.34.5:
        - hopefully... this will be the last bug fix... so i can begin working
          on new features... i fixed event mask selection on client windows
          after reparenting them to the decoration frame... this should get
          xv working again...
        - changed the signal hander to core on sigsegv and sigfpe... sigint and
          sigterm will just exit blackbox cleanly... sighup will cause blackbox
          to reconfigure itself
        - changed the way the version string is printed... 


Changes from 0.34.3 to 0.34.4:
        - changed the window stacking code to stack windows and their menus
          more sanely... window menus are stacked directly ontop of the client
          windows... instead of on top of every other client window... the
          workspace manager is now by default stacked above client windows...
        - reworked alot of code in Window.cc, blackbox.cc, Workspace.cc and
          WorkspaceManager.cc to properly handle ICCCM state hints... the
          startup and shutdown code has been completely reworked as a result of
          this

Changes from 0.34.2 to 0.34.3:
        - this was a small change in the code... but a BIG change for the user
          base... the X error handler is now non fatal... yes... this means if
          blackbox encounters an X error (like a bad window or a bad match) it
          will fprintf() the error and continue running... the quick window bug
          has been mostly fixed... i have a small app that i wrote that quickly
          maps a window, calls XSync()... then destroys the window and exits...
          the first time i ran this little beauty... blackbox died a horrible
          death... blackbox now handles this app nicely... but does
          occasionally report an error (during the decoration creation... which
          is promptly destroyed from the destroy notify event placed in the
          queue by the X server... thus... no memory leaks... no memory
          corruption... blackbox just keeps chugging along nicely


Changes from 0.34.1 to 0.34.2 (unreleased):
        - fixed MSBFirst byte order image rendering at 32bpp (24bpp pending)
          (for machines better than this intel machine of mine)
        - changed BImage to allocate dithering space when the image is created
          and to delete it when the image is destroyed... instead of allocating
          the space and deleting the space each time the image is rendered to 
          an XImage... hopefully this will provide a speed increase (albeit a
          small one)
        - changed blackbox to call XListPixmapFormats once at startup...
          instead of each time an image is rendered... this should afford some
          speed increase (a small one at best :)
        - fixed a bug in Window.cc that re-reads the window name...
          Jon Denardis discovered this bug while playing with netscape 4.5...
          the validation call is now directly before the XFetchName call...
          instead of before an if() { } block that calls strcmp and XFree()
        - edit Window.cc to change the way buttons are decorated and sized
          the associatedWindow.button.color(To) resources have been removed,
          but the associatedWindow.button texture resource is still there


Changes from 0.34.0 to 0.34.1:
        - fixed the unmanaged rxvt/xconsole/whatever problem that didn't
          decorate windows at start up... just a little logic error that was
          fixed with a few braces
        - fixed the shutdown code so that X and blackbox don't die a gruesome
          death while reparenting the small applets on the workspace manager
          toolbar... the above bug fixed also fixed a bug that didn't reparent
          any existing app windows...
        - updated libBox code to allow for flaws in it's design (forgotten from
          0.34.0)
        - removed #include <sys/select.h> from blackbox.cc so that it compiles
          on any platform (since select is supposed to be defined in unistd.h)
        - removed the NEED_STRNCASECMP block in blackbox.cc until i can get
          a working posix like routine to work (needed for OS2 platforms)
        - edited the Imakefile scheme to have the the toplevel Imakefile and 
          Imakefiles in app-defaults/ lib/ and src/... there now is Imakeconfig
          which includes all the options in one file... so that editing all
          the Imakefiles is no longer necessary


Changes from 0.33.6 to 0.34.0:
        - edited some Imakefiles so that rpm creaters have an easier time
        - added stuff to lib/  which contains a small (VERY small) library for
          letting applications open a window on the workspace manager toolbar
          this is very very new... restarting will cause the app to crash
          (at best) or take X with it (the worst)... play with it an let me
          know how it works
        - further revised window.cc and blackbox.cc to provide better error
          checking... window.cc received the most updates... validating a
          window is now done in the statement before the window is used... not
          at the beginning of the function the window is used in...
        - fixed the stacking order bug when changing workspaces... the windows
          will now be restored in the order that you left them... not in the
          order they were created in...
        - updated the README... a little bit anyway :)
        - updated BlackboxWindow::maximizeWindow() in window.cc to properly
          maximize windows that have specified size increments
        - fixed BlackboxWindow::configureWindow so that shaded windows that re
          size themselves only resize the titlebar
        - added ccmalloc 0.2.3 to the main source tree to aid in debugging...
          this is NOT maintained by myself, see the source tree for details
        - eliminated a double delete call with the aid of ccmalloc!@#!
        

Changes from 0.33.5 to 0.33.6:
        - added Makefile.generic for those of you with foobared imake configs.
          the use of xmkmf -a (i.e. imake) is still prefered... but this should
          work on any system... with a little editing
        - added static int handleXErrors(Display *, XErrorEvent *) in
          blackbox.cc to handle any and all X lib errors while blackbox is
          running... this should produce a coredump and thus the -moron
          community should be able to flood my inbox with stack trace upon
          stack trace :)
        - added some sub directories and moved the sources around, this allows
          for easier inclusion of the library for blackbox specific programs
          (which will run in the dock)
        - hopefully fixed the "disappearing-rxvt-trick"... since i can't
          reproduce it i don't know for sure
        - removed the use of alloca in graphics.cc... i was noticing very odd
          behaviour from malloc() and free()... where blackbox would sig11 
          when exiting because of XCloseDisplay doing something naughty...
          and this seems to have done the trick... no more sig11's from malloc
          or new... everything i've thrown at blackbox is gently but firmly
          beaten into submission...
        - added docboy's curved gradient hack as a compile time option... see
          src/Imakefile and src/graphics.cc


Changes from 0.33.4 to 0.33.5:
        - added a small test to cascade windows that start out partially hidden
          (like netscape, Xnest, xv, etc.)
        - changed icon handling to include a menu of icons accessible from the
          workspace manager toolbar
        - deiconifying a window now takes it to the top of the stack
        - clicking on a menuitem that has a submenu no longer hides the submenu
        - added resource "workspaceManager.24hourClock",  a value of True turns
          on the 24hour clock on the toolbar
        - removed icon pixmap/window/mask support/handling from window.cc and
          window.hh... since icons are now handled in a menu, this is no
          longer needed
        - added session.handleWidth and session.bevelWidth
          to control window sizes (instead of hardcoded defaults)
        - changed parts of Basemenu.cc and WorkspaceManager.cc to follow the
          sizes set by session.bevelWidth
        - fixed Alt-Tab window switching... also fixed some focus handling bugs
          which let two windows become focused at the same time (which is bad
          mojo)


Changes from 0.33.3 to 0.33.4:
        - corrected a typo in the sample Blackbox.ad file to correctly show
          which resource to set for the menu file
        - added moderate window group support for programs like netscape and 
          other motif applications... modified window stacking code and
          internal list code to support window groups (this makes transients
          behave properly... another step towards more complete ICCCM
          compliance)
        - modified focus event handlers to stop applications from focusing out
          when pressing menubars... also window focus is returned to root if 
          the focus window is closed... if another window is under the focus
          window when it is closed... that window is awarded input focus
        - fixed tiny little bug that didn't move the close button when resizing
          a window


Changes from 0.33.2 to 0.33.3: 
        - changed some of the menu code ("updated" in 0.33.1) back to the
          original 0.33.0, which seems to perform better.  Reason behind it? -
          blackbox died too often with 0.33.1/2
        - added "Kill Client" option to window menus... for those applications
          that don't accept the WM_DELETE_WINDOW atom
        - menus that are not partially moved off the root window are shifted to
          a visible position when the pointer enters the frame... it is also
          shifted back to it's original position when left (this is new... let
          me know how it works)


Changes from 0.33.1 to 0.33.2: (unreleased)
        - changed BlackboxIcon to not try and read its config when it was
          created.  This was forgotten from the 0.31.0 -> 0.33.0 move :/


Changes from 0.33.0 to 0.33.1: (unreleased)
        - improved menu handling, less possibilty for SIGSEGV
        - menus now make copies of all label, exec strings and titles, to
          make less loose pointers
        - fixed typo to allow submenus of submenus of submenus (...)
        - fixed workspace menu and window list menu placements


Changes from 0.31.0 to 0.33.0:
        - added #ifdef statements so the C preprocessor doesn't complain about
          _GNU_SOURCE being redefined.
        - changed internal resource data structures
        - added Sticky windows functionality
        - remove old animation code bound with #ifdef ANIMATIONS
        - fixed a silly little bug that sometimes mapped a submenu when its
          parent was unmapping itself
        - added ExecReconfigure option to execute a shell statement before
          performing reconfiguration
        - rearranged window config code to reduce wait time while resizing
        - added internal macro BImageNoDitherSolid to make window frame
          rendering faster (dithering a solid image is silly anyway)
        - added new menu file format
        - added Blackbox::validateWindow to provide a stabler environment for
          Blackbox.  This gives blackbox more error checking and greater
          stability.  For me, random crashes have (nearly) disappeared.
        - removed window name/class dependant frame texture/color
        - with 0.31.0, each entity read it's configuration from the rc database
          loaded at start.  this has changed back to the old behaviour of
          reading all configuration parameters at start, no database reads are
          performed after the initial setup (save for reconfiguring).
        - configuration has changed to be a little cleaner, and a little more
          thorough.  See the Blackbox.ad and BlackboxMenu.ad for exmaples.
