[PURPOSE]
In editors such as vi and emacs, a user can mark a line in a file with
a shortcut key and afterwards jump back to that line using the shortcut.
The idea is extended to opened windows. A user can assign a keyboard
shortcut to an opened window. Afterwards, the shortcut can be used to
switch focus back to the marked window.
Such shortcuts save the user from pressing "alt+tab" multiple times to
cycle through windows until the desired one is found.
[EXAMPLE USAGE]
The following binding is added to file "~/.fluxbox/keys":
Mod1 m ARG :MarkWindow
Mod1 g ARG :GotoMarkedWindow
User enters "alt+m x" to mark the currently focused window with shortcut
key 'x'
User enters "alt+g x" to switch focus to the marked window
[IMPLEMENTATION SUMMARY]
- Two new commands were added :MarkWindow and :GotoMarkedWindow
- Keys.cc was modified:
- addBinding() method supports parsing an argument placeholder where
the user can pass in a shortcut key
- doAction() method forwards the shortcut key to the command to execute
- Class Keys::t_key was modified to recognize a placeholder key
- New class ShortcutManager was added to maintain mapping of shortcut
keys to marked windows

a fixed position of the style menu won't help (the menu geometry changes
*because* the item geometries do) - warping the pointer would likely be
possible, but warping the pointer is cc. "evil"
BUG: 715
|
|
Also reconfigure menus (recursively) on style load
The most critical call is the shape update - the menus often become
cut-off, preventing mouse interaction with lower items, but also colors
are not applied correctly to menus w/o updating them.
BUG 1022 is most likely this and only a misinterpretation (for the
mentioned items are those with lacking color updates on style updates)
BUG: 1146
BUG: 1017
CCBUG: 1022

Testing one bug, the function seems usually be called with the root
window as parameter, so we can save a pointless lookup for the root of
the root by testing against window before testing against window_root.
Elegantly, this will "fix" the bug where XGetGeometry of the second
heads root will either report the first heads root or some junk (xephyr
case?)
BUG: 1128

Fluxbox now supports three MenuSearch modes:
* NoWhere - essentially "disabling" the menu search.
* Somewhere - the search string matches somewhere.
* ItemStart - the search string matches at the start of a menu item.
The default value is "ItemStart", just in the good old times. As long as
this feature is not configurable via the menu it would irritate users
with distinct muscle memory who type without thinking OR checking the
visual feedback: they would trigger items they did not intent to trigger
after years of the old behavior.
Once this feature get's an entry in the config menu the default value
might change.
|
|
When the windowmenu file is empty in ~/.fluxbox/init the code falls
back to the default. In ab2eef4 I forgot to set the rc_path which
caused this bug to happen.

Sometimes fluxbox is used as a component of a desktop environment (
e.g., the "Lumina Desktop"). It's easier and more stable for this kind
of "users" to disable the toolbar or the slit alltogether. Why not
configure these features out? Because then they would need 2 installations
of fluxbox: One without the slit and the toolbar (and perhaps other
components) and one with them.
This implements feature request #314, at least partially.
This commit also looks bigger than it actually is: I refactored and cleaned
up classes Fluxbox and BScreen.
|
|
There was a subtle flaw in the way fluxbox detects to which BScreen a
given Window belongs: We have to compare the RootWindow of the given
Window against the RootWindow of each BScreen.
That underlying flaw made _NET_REQUEST_FRAME_EXTENTS fail: the code path
needs a valid BScreen for the given window, otherwise we return early.
Closes #1121.

File name expansion is done internally by the Slit::loadClientList, so there
is no need to duplicate the code.

xmodmap (and other tools) trigger MappingNotify events. a single xmodmap
expression such as "keycode comma = comma semicolon" might trigger 4 or 5
MappingNotify events. loading the keys file on each of them is quite
unefficient.
fluxbox now uses a (250ms) timer which is reset upon further events.

This commit fixes primarily a race condition that occurs when xinit(1) shuts
down: by not acting properly fluxbox gets caught in an infinite loop. It
caused bug #1100.
xinit(1) sends a SIGHUP signal to all processes. fluxbox tries to shutdown
itself properly by shutting down workspaces and screens. While doing that, the
Xserver might be gone already. Additionally, fluxbox used to restart() itself
on SIGHUP, which is clearly not the right thing to do when xinit(1) is about
to end the session.
So, fluxbox does this:
* handling SIGHUP now shuts down fluxbox without clearing workspaces and
screens.
* A 2 second alarm() is triggered in Fluxbox::shutdown() as a last resort
* XSetIOErrorHandler() is used to recognize the disconnect from the xserver.
* SIGUSR1 is for restarting fluxbox, SIGUSR2 for reloading the config
* FbTk/SignalHandler.cc/hh is gone; this unused abstraction served currently
no real purpose. Signal handling is now done in main.cc
* Unrelated to the issue itself src/main.cc was trimmed down quite a bit and
the code (responsible for handling the command line interface) was moved to
src/cli*

std::bind2nd() has problems with the existing call because it uses the
argument type passed to std::equal_to() in std::binder2nd()'s constructor,
but WinClient* does not have the const specifier that `client' does.
The call works fine with libstdc++ because of the way it implements
std::bind2nd(), but fails with libc++ and possibly with other STL
implementations as well.

The earlier _GNU_SOURCE definitions possibly did not take effect
everywhere where it was intended.
|
|
Do not try to be too smart which compilations need config.h, as most of
them will simply because of the config.h has information about system
capabilities.

The changes made in b178bed60b5bd8b2c9ed0cbc67fd729ff3820589 used the wrong
variable to set the default state of '--enable-randr' in configure.in, that is fixed now. I
also removed '--enable-randr12': If support for the Xrandr-extension is
available at compile time we set HAVE_RANDR; if there is also support for
Xrandr-1.2 (or higher), we also set HAVE_RANDR1_2 automatically.
Other changes:
* cleaned out public interface of 'class Fluxbox'
* added 'RANDR' to output of 'fluxbox -info'
|
|
* reduced duplicated auto-code
* renamed '--enable-newwmspec' to '--enable-ewmh'
* don't compile 'Slit'-code when '--disable-slit'
* use AS_IF() in configure.in
* use AS_HELP_STRING() instead of obsolete AC_HELP_STRING in configure.in
* removed redundant calls to 'imlib2-config' to fill in $IMLIB2_CFLAGS
and $IMLIB2_LIBS, AC_PATH_GENERIC() does that out of the box already

gettimeofday() is subject to be changed on daylight-saving or to ntp-related
(think leap-seconds). even worse, it is subject to be changed BACK in time. this
is hard to fix correctly (see commit 45726d3016e and bug #3560509). it is
irrelevant for timers to know the nano-seconds since the epoch anyways.

Found with cppcheck:
"Prefix ++/-- operators should be preferred for non-primitive
types. Pre-increment/decrement can be more efficient than
post-increment/decrement. Post-increment/decrement usually
involves keeping a copy of the previous value around and adds
a little extra code."

nowadays every app should use the extended window manager hints exclusively.

the deleted function was never used, otherwise it would generate an error with other compilers as
well. icc noticed that it was nonsensical even when it wasn't used and complained.

biggest change: renaming of 'class Layer' to 'class ResourceLayer' in
Layer.hh to handle complaints about 'ambiguous Layer: Layer or FbTk::Layer'.
'ResourceLayer' sounds crappy, but that was the best I could come
up with right now.

before bringing up the first instance of Fluxbox we prepare the directory
and the files it needs. if the config version of exiting files is lower
than what we expect, we upgrade the config files. after that we bring
up Fluxbox.
the old way was problematic because setupConfigFiles() calls
'fluxbox-update_configs' which does its job in the background while
fluxbox continues to boot. 'fluxbox-update_configs' sends a USR2 signal
to the booting fluxbox (it might even be finished, no one knows) which
triggers 'load_rc()' which triggered 'setupConfigFiles()' again which
might trigger 'fluxbox-update_configs' again (on my machine
'fluxbox-update_configs' was called 3 times and left a pretty crippled
'keys' file when it was done).
bootstrapping before bringing up fluxbox resolves the issue. as a bonus:
no need to send USR2 to fluxbox to reload the config file because fluxbox
has not even tried to read it yet.

* use FbTk::StringUtil::number2String() to avoid 'sprintf'
* use FbTk::Util::clamp()
* use FbTk::STLUtil::destroyAndClear()
* whitespaces

we do not need a std::map just to store an attribute on an AtomHandler,
it makes housekeeping just more annoying.

our users should migrate seamlessly to our new windows-cycling behaviour
without losing their current way of doing things. so, 'fluxbox-update_configs'
tries its best to add '(workspace=[current])' wherever it looks like a valid
place for it. such changed lines are marked by '!! FBCV13' at the end and can
be easily spotted in case the updater got it wrong.
addtional changes:
* added '-check' to 'fluxbox-update_configs' to check the version number in
'~/.fluxbox/init' vs. the version number of 'fluxbox-update_configs'
* moved the update-code for each version into its own function, easier
housekeeping

This will reduce the number of #ifdef DEBUG for
simple debug messages.
include "Debug.hh" and use fbdbg instead of cerr for debug.

initialize this from that'
