# Change Log / Release Notes
|
|
|
|
## 0.13
|
|
|
|
### Breaking Changes
|
|
|
|
* The type of `completionKey` (of `XPConfig` record) has been
|
|
changed from `KeySym` to `(KeyMask, KeySym)`. The default value
|
|
for this is still binded to `Tab` key.
|
|
|
|
* New constructor `CenteredAt Rational Rational` added for
|
|
`XMonad.Prompt.XPPosition`.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Prompt` now stores its history file in the XMonad cache
|
|
directory in a file named `prompt-history`.
|
|
|
|
### New Modules
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Layout.SortedLayout`
|
|
|
|
A new LayoutModifier that sorts a given layout by a list of
|
|
properties. The order of properties in the list determines
|
|
the order of windows in the final layout. Any unmatched windows
|
|
go to the end of the order.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Prompt.Unicode`
|
|
|
|
A prompt to search a unicode character by its name, and put it into the
|
|
clipboard.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Util.Ungrab`
|
|
|
|
Release xmonad's keyboard and pointer grabs immediately, so
|
|
screen grabbers and lock utilities, etc. will work. Replaces
|
|
the short sleep hackaround.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Util.Loggers.NamedScratchpad`
|
|
|
|
A collection of Loggers (see `XMonad.Util.Loggers`) for NamedScratchpads
|
|
(see `XMonad.Util.NamedScratchpad`).
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Util.NoTaskbar`
|
|
|
|
Utility function and `ManageHook` to mark a window to be ignored by
|
|
EWMH taskbars and pagers. Useful for `NamedScratchpad` windows, since
|
|
you will usually be taken to the `NSP` workspace by them.
|
|
|
|
### Minor Changes
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Layout.LayoutBuilder`
|
|
|
|
Merge all functionality from `XMonad.Layout.LayoutBuilderP` into
|
|
`XMonad.Layout.LayoutBuilder`.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Actions.DynamicProjects`
|
|
|
|
- Switching away from a dynamic project that contains no windows
|
|
automatically deletes that project's workspace.
|
|
|
|
The project itself was already being deleted, this just deletes
|
|
the workspace created for it as well.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Actions.WindowGo`
|
|
|
|
- Fix `raiseNextMaybe` cycling between 2 workspaces only.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Actions.UpdatePointer`
|
|
|
|
- Fix bug when cursor gets stuck in one of the corners.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Actions.Submap`
|
|
|
|
Establish pointer grab to avoid freezing X, when button press occurs after
|
|
submap key press. And terminate submap at button press in the same way,
|
|
as we do for wrong key press.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Actions.DynamicProjects`
|
|
|
|
- Added function to change the working directory (`changeProjectDirPrompt`)
|
|
|
|
- All of the prompts are now multiple mode prompts. Try using the
|
|
`changeModeKey` in a prompt and see what happens!
|
|
|
|
## 0.12 (December 14, 2015)
|
|
|
|
### Breaking Changes
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Actions.UpdatePointer.updatePointer` arguments were
|
|
changed. This allows including aspects of both of the
|
|
`TowardsCentre` and `Relative` methods. To keep the same behavior,
|
|
replace the entry in the left column with the entry on the right:
|
|
|
|
| < 0.12 | >= 0.12 |
|
|
|-------------------------------------|----------------------------------|
|
|
| `updatePointer Nearest` | `updatePointer (0.5, 0.5) (1,1)` |
|
|
| `updatePointer (Relative x y)` | `updatePointer (x,y) (0,0)` |
|
|
| `updatePointer (TowardsCentre x y)` | `updatePointer (0.5,0.5) (x,y)` |
|
|
|
|
### New Modules
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Actions.AfterDrag`
|
|
|
|
Perform an action after the current mouse drag is completed.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Actions.DynamicProjects`
|
|
|
|
Imbues workspaces with additional features so they can be treated
|
|
as individual project areas.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Actions.LinkWorkspaces`
|
|
|
|
Provides bindings to add and delete links between workspaces. It
|
|
is aimed at providing useful links between workspaces in a
|
|
multihead setup. Linked workspaces are viewed at the same time.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Config.Bepo`
|
|
|
|
This module fixes some of the keybindings for the francophone
|
|
among you who use a BEPO keyboard layout. Based on
|
|
`XMonad.Config.Azerty`
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Config.Dmwit`
|
|
|
|
Daniel Wagner's configuration.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Config.Mate`
|
|
|
|
This module provides a config suitable for use with the MATE
|
|
desktop environment.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Config.Prime`
|
|
|
|
A draft of a brand new config syntax for xmonad.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Hooks.DynamicProperty`
|
|
|
|
Module to apply a `ManageHook` to an already-mapped window when a
|
|
property changes. This would commonly be used to match browser
|
|
windows by title, since the final title will only be set after (a)
|
|
the window is mapped, (b) its document has been loaded, (c) all
|
|
load-time scripts have run.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Hooks.ManageDebug`
|
|
|
|
A `manageHook` and associated `logHook` for debugging `ManageHook`s.
|
|
Simplest usage: wrap your xmonad config in the `debugManageHook`
|
|
combinator. Or use `debugManageHookOn` for a triggerable version,
|
|
specifying the triggering key sequence in `XMonad.Util.EZConfig`
|
|
syntax. Or use the individual hooks in whatever way you see fit.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Hooks.WallpaperSetter`
|
|
|
|
Log hook which changes the wallpapers depending on visible
|
|
workspaces.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Hooks.WorkspaceHistory`
|
|
|
|
Keeps track of workspace viewing order.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Layout.AvoidFloats`
|
|
|
|
Find a maximum empty rectangle around floating windows and use
|
|
that area to display non-floating windows.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Layout.BinarySpacePartition`
|
|
|
|
Layout where new windows will split the focused window in half,
|
|
based off of BSPWM.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Layout.Dwindle`
|
|
|
|
Three layouts: The first, `Spiral`, is a reimplementation of
|
|
`XMonad.Layout.Spiral.spiral` with, at least to me, more intuitive
|
|
semantics. The second, `Dwindle`, is inspired by a similar layout
|
|
in awesome and produces the same sequence of decreasing window
|
|
sizes as Spiral but pushes the smallest windows into a screen
|
|
corner rather than the centre. The third, `Squeeze` arranges all
|
|
windows in one row or in one column, with geometrically decreasing
|
|
sizes.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Layout.Hidden`
|
|
|
|
Similar to `XMonad.Layout.Minimize` but completely removes windows
|
|
from the window set so `XMonad.Layout.BoringWindows` isn't
|
|
necessary. Perfect companion to `XMonad.Layout.BinarySpacePartition`
|
|
since it can be used to move windows to another part of the BSP tree.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Layout.IfMax`
|
|
|
|
Provides `IfMax` layout, which will run one layout if there are
|
|
maximum `N` windows on workspace, and another layout, when number
|
|
of windows is greater than `N`.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Layout.PerScreen`
|
|
|
|
Configure layouts based on the width of your screen; use your
|
|
favorite multi-column layout for wide screens and a full-screen
|
|
layout for small ones.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Layout.Stoppable`
|
|
|
|
This module implements a special kind of layout modifier, which when
|
|
applied to a layout, causes xmonad to stop all non-visible processes.
|
|
In a way, this is a sledge-hammer for applications that drain power.
|
|
For example, given a web browser on a stoppable workspace, once the
|
|
workspace is hidden the web browser will be stopped.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Prompt.ConfirmPrompt`
|
|
|
|
A module for setting up simple confirmation prompts for
|
|
keybindings.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Prompt.Pass`
|
|
|
|
This module provides 3 `XMonad.Prompt`s to ease passwords
|
|
manipulation (generate, read, remove) via [pass][].
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Util.RemoteWindows`
|
|
|
|
This module implements a proper way of finding out whether the
|
|
window is remote or local.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Util.SpawnNamedPipe`
|
|
|
|
A module for spawning a pipe whose `Handle` lives in the xmonad state.
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Util.WindowState`
|
|
|
|
Functions for saving per-window data.
|
|
|
|
### Miscellaneous Changes
|
|
|
|
* Fix issue #9: `XMonad.Prompt.Shell` `searchPredicate` is ignored,
|
|
defaults to `isPrefixOf`
|
|
|
|
* Fix moveHistory when alwaysHighlight is enabled
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Actions.DynamicWorkspaceGroups` now exports `addRawWSGroup`
|
|
|
|
* Side tabs were added to the tabbed layout
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad/Layout/IndependentScreens` now exports `marshallSort`
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad/Hooks/UrgencyHook` now exports `clearUrgency`
|
|
|
|
* Exceptions are now caught when finding commands on `PATH` in `Prompt.Shell`
|
|
|
|
* Switched to `Data.Default` wherever possible
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Layout.IndependentScreens` now exports `whenCurrentOn`
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Util.NamedActions` now exports `addDescrKeys'`
|
|
|
|
* EWMH `DEMANDS_ATTENTION` support added to `UrgencyHook`
|
|
|
|
* New `useTransientFor` modifier in `XMonad.Layout.TrackFloating`
|
|
|
|
* Added the ability to remove arbitrary workspaces
|
|
|
|
## 0.9 (October 26, 2009)
|
|
|
|
### Updates that Require Changes in `xmonad.hs`
|
|
|
|
* `XMonad.Hooks.EwmhDesktops` no longer uses `layoutHook`, the
|
|
`ewmhDesktopsLayout` modifier has been removed from
|
|
xmonad-contrib. It uses `logHook`, `handleEventHook`, and
|
|
`startupHook` instead and provides a convenient function `ewmh` to
|
|
add EWMH support to a `defaultConfig`.
|
|
|
|
* Most `DynamicLog` users can continue with configs unchanged, but
|
|
users of the quickbar functions `xmobar` or `dzen` will need to
|
|
change `xmonad.hs`: their types have changed to allow easier
|
|
composition with other `XConfig` modifiers. The `dynamicLogDzen`
|
|
and `dynamicLogXmobar` functions have been removed.
|
|
|
|
* `WindowGo` or `safeSpawn` users may need to change command lines
|
|
due to `safeSpawn` changes.
|
|
|
|
* People explicitly referencing the "SP" scratchpad workspace should
|
|
change it to "NSP" which is also used by the new
|
|
`Util.NamedScratchpad` module.
|
|
|
|
* (Optional) People who explicitly use `swapMaster` in key or mouse
|
|
bindings should change it to `shiftMaster`. It's the current
|
|
default used where `swapMaster` had been used previously. It works
|
|
better than `swapMaster` when using floating and tiled windows
|
|
together on the same workspace.
