* Rewrite the `refocus` function such that it modifies the windowset
without performing a refresh, instead returning the given layout
object when one is required.
* Message handling which uses `refocus` has been rewritten to less
frequently request unnecessary refreshes.
The 'FullscreenFull' layout modifier hides all windows fully covered by
the fullscreen area, even when no fullscreen windows are present. Fix
this, closing #278. Also switch to 'X.U.Rectangle'.
* don't constrain to precise
* add libxrandr dependency
* test against new GHC versions
* install xmonad from git before cabal can install it from hackage
* Explicitly import pure, (<$>), (<*>) and (<$) from Control.Applicative.
* Use DeriveDataTypeable pragma.
* Remove type signature from pattern synonym.
* Reintroduce the original 'ModifySpacing' type and constructor as
deprecated; the new 'ModifySpacing' type was renamed to
'SpacingModifier'. Suggested by @LSLeary.
* Types 'SpacingWithEdge', 'SmartSpacing', and 'SmartSpacingWithEdge'
have been reintroduced as deprecated type synonyms of 'Spacing'. Work
by @LSLeary.
Also 'borderMap' is now exported; it might be useful.
Make 'stackMerge' safer by implicitly appending any leftover elements
rather than discarding them. Otherwise on refresh the missing windows
will be deleted. This is only necessary if the stack has been shortened
- i.e. not required by this module.
Minor miscellaneous documentation fixes.
* All the backwards-compatibility functions now accept `Int` rather than
`Integer`: `spacing`, `spacingWithEdge`, `smartSpacing`,
`smartSpacingWithEdge`, `setSpacing`, and `incSpacing`. Work done by
@LSLeary.
* Introduce the new functions `setScreenWindowSpacing`,
`incScreenWindowSpacing`, `decScreenWindowSpacing`. Unlike their
original `setSpacing`, `incSpacing` counterparts, these refresh no
more than once. Requires `sendMessages` from my PR of
`XMonad.Actions.MessageFeedback`. Suggestion by @LSLeary and
implemented so any combination of messages can be sent without
triggering unnecessary refreshes.
- Follow the naming conventions of `XMonad.Operations`. Functions returning
`X ()` are named regularly (previously these ended in underscore) while
those returning `X Bool` are suffixed with an uppercase 'B'.
- Provide all `X Bool` and `SomeMessage` variations for `sendMessage` and
`sendMessageWithNoRefresh`, not just `sendMessageWithNoRefreshToCurrent`
(renamed from `send`).
- The new `tryInOrderB` and `tryMessageB` functions accept a parameter of
type `SomeMessage -> X Bool`, which means you are no longer constrained
to the behavior of the `sendMessageWithNoRefreshToCurrent` dispatcher.
- The `send*Messages*` family of funtions allows for sequencing arbitrary
sets of messages with minimal refresh. It makes little sense for these
functions to support custom message dispatchers.
- Remain backwards compatible. Maintain deprecated aliases of all renamed
functions:
- `send` -> `sendMessageWithNoRefreshToCurrentB`
- `sendSM` -> `sendSomeMessageWithNoRefreshToCurrentB`
- `sendSM_` -> `sendSomeMessageWithNoRefreshToCurrent`
- `tryInOrder` -> `tryInOrderWithNoRefreshToCurrentB`
- `tryInOrder_` -> `tryInOrderWithNoRefreshToCurrent`
- `tryMessage` -> `tryMessageWithNoRefreshToCurrentB`
- `tryMessage_` -> `tryMessageWithNoRefreshToCurrent`
The layout now maintains a list of windows that never have borders, and
a list of windows that always have borders. Use 'BorderMessage' to
manage these lists and the accompanying event hook ('borderEventHook')
to remove destroyed windows from them. Also provides the 'hasBorder'
manage hook.
Two new conditions have been added to 'Ambiguity': 'OnlyLayoutFloat' and
'OnlyLayoutFloatBelow'; 'OnlyFloat' was renamed to 'OnlyScreenFloat'.
See the documentation for more information.
