This is a port of OpenBSD's excellent cwm[0] to Linux and other
|
|
Unices.
|
|
|
|
cwm is a window manager for X11 which contains many features that
|
|
concentrate on the efficiency and transparency of window
|
|
management. cwm also aims to maintain the simplest and most
|
|
pleasant aesthetic.
|
|
|
|
This port requires pkg-config, Xft, Xinerama and Xrandr. The included Makefile
|
|
should work with both GNU make and BSD make. It has been built successfully on
|
|
OpenBSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OS X 10.9 and Linux.
|
|
|
|
This version actively tracks changes in the OpenBSD CVS repository.
|
|
Releases are roughly coordinated.
|
|
|
|
The revision controlled version is at https://github.com/chneukirchen/cwm
|
|
Releases can be found at http://chneukirchen.org/releases

|
|
|
|
Changes made between OpenBSD 5.1 and 5.2
|
|
* Fixed cwm(1) atom (WM_PROTOCOLS) style handing; closing a window will no
|
|
longer close entire application if the client supports CLIENT_PROTO_DELETE.
|
|
* Re-implement atom handing for more consistent separation of cwm(1) and
|
|
Extended Window Manager Hints.
|
|
* cwm(1) better integrated into the freedesktop.org Window Manager
|
|
Specification Project.
|
|
|
|
Changes made between OpenBSD 5.2 and 5.3
|
|
* Set the initial cwm(1) group to "1".
|
|
* Added cwm(1) per-group vert/horiz tiling support with new bind commands
|
|
"vtile" and "htile."
|
|
* Made cwm(1) screen font an Xft(3) font.
|
|
* Specific last match for autogroup in cwmrc(5).
|
|
* Tab completion support for cwm(1) menus.
|
|
* Allow cwm(1) clients to be resized from a max state.
|
|
* Multibyte input to cwm(1) menu code now possible.
|
|
|
|
Changes made between OpenBSD 5.3 and 5.4
|
|
* Added support for mouse based group {,r}cycle to cwmrc(5).
|
|
* Allow mouse button4 and button5 in cwmrc(5).
|
|
* Made cwm(1) check for, and honour, CWStackMode and CWSibling change requests
|
|
during a ConfigureRequest event.
|
|
* Honour PATH search order for cwm(1)'s exec.
|
|
|
|
Changes made between OpenBSD 5.5 and 5.4
|
|
* Only set the cwm(1) urgency flag if the client is not active.
|
|
* Allow the cwm(1) config parser continue parsing even after encountering an
|
|
error.
|
|
* cwm(1) now follows the EWMH spec: if the cardinal returned is 0xFFFFFFFF (-1)
|
|
then the window should appear on all desktops.
|
|
* Made cwm(1) supply a more useful title for windows launched via the ssh(1)
|
|
command menu ("[ssh] ").
|
|
* Allowed cwm(1) to accept _NET_WM_DESKTOP and _NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP
|
|
ClientMessage.
|
|
* Implemented cwm(1) support for _NET_WM_STATE_FULLSCREEN hint, with keybinding
|
|
changes: CM-f "fullscreen", CM-m "maximize".
|
|
* Instead of using the work area, use the Xinerama area for cwm(1) snap
|
|
calculations.
|
|
* Save-set when cwm(1) is re-exec'ing so as to not lose State on our hidden
|
|
clients.
|
|
* Added cwmrc(5) support for XUrgency and matching
|
|
_NET_WM_STATE_DEMANDS_ATTENTION ewmh hint, with configurable urgencyborder.
|
|
* Prepend the group shortcut in the cwm(1) client search menu;
|
|
prepend shortcut in unhide menu.
|
|
* If not hidden during an UnmapNotify event, cwm(1) will now un-manage the
|
|
client.
|
|
* Like "gap", made cwm(1) "snapdist" per-screen.
|
|
* Removed cwmrc(5) option to bind a key by keycode with brackets, which never
|
|
worked. Users should be using keysym names not keycodes.
|
|
* Re-added cwm(1) support for WM_TAKE_FOCUS. Solves keyboard input focus loss
|
|
for java apps.
|
|
* For cwm(1) clients that support WM_TAKE_FOCUS in their WM_PROTOCOLS property,
|
|
send a ClientMessage event.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
