This is a history of major changes to my wmii
configuration.
2006-10-07
- Fixed handling of multiple arguments to Wmii::Client#untag!
2006-09-30
- Included 1.1.0 release of Ruby-IXP.
2006-09-29
- Fixed bug in toggle_maximize method (in rc.rb) due to accessing a
nonexistent file in IXP file system.
- Thanks to Christian von Mueffling for reporting this bug.
- Fixed problem with reading index (Wmii::Client#index) of
currently selected client.
- Wmii.find_client now accepts a
variable number of places to be searched.
2006-09-28
- Added number_view_buttons method (in rc.rb) which numbers the view buttons
displayed on the bar, from left to right.
2006-09-27
- Included two main concurrency fixes for Ruby-IXP.
2006-09-24
- Added two-stage event handling, to minimize the number of events missed
while processing an event.
2006-09-23
- Fixed event & status bar loop. It was forgotten when I transitioned to
the new Ixp::Node#method_missing
behavior on 2006-09-22.
- Thanks to Fredrik Ternerot for reporting this bug.
- When selecting views based on their first letter: if more than one view
matches, then they are cycled (adapted from Fredrik Ternerot).
- Added focus_view_matching method in rc.rb.
- Fixed errors that occurred when the tile and diamond arrangements were
applied to empty views.
2006-09-22
2006-09-21
- Fix some forgotten changes from show_menu() returning nil.
- Exception error message (xmessage) now lets you restart wmiirc.
- Updated event loop to generate less 9P traffic.
2006-09-20
- Included code from upcoming Ruby-IXP 1.1.0 release.
- Ixp::Node#method_missing now
only dereferences a node if the method is suffixed with an exclamation
mark.
- show_menu now returns nil if nothing was chosen.
- Updated event loop for wmii-3.1's
/event overload bug fix.
- Added explicit termination of already running instances in wmiirc
via Process.kill and `ps`, instead of using /event as a means of
coordinating said task.
2006-09-19
2006-09-18
- Included Ruby-IXP 1.0.2 release.
2006-09-17
- Added Wmii::View#empty? and Wmii::Area#empty? methods.
- change_tag_from_menu now returns the chosen tag.
- Included Ruby-IXP 1.0.1 release.
2006-09-16
- Fixed toggling of maximization of currently focused client, via
toggle_maximize in rc.rb.
- Thanks to Fredrik Ternerot for reporting this bug.
2006-09-15
- Added Wmii.get_view and Wmii.get_client methods, to further
minimize hard-coded IXP file system paths. This will make it easier to
upgrade to wmii-4 later on.
- Fixed ruby-ixp to be internally buffered for Ixp#read.
- Event loop now uses Ixp#read instead of wmiir.
- Already running configurations now correctly exit when another instance
starts up.
2006-09-14
- Added ability to swap current client with the currently focused client in
any other column.
2006-09-13
- Reverted to wmiir for event loop, because Ixp#read isn’t
internally buffered!
- Changed Wmii::View#each to Wmii::View#each_column because
floating area isn’t a column (it doesn’t have /mode file).
- Added shortcuts for setting layouts of all columns in current view.
- Added shortcuts for selection of current column.
- Fixed ability to terminate multiple clients.
2006-09-12
- Event loop now uses Ixp#read instead of wmiir.
- Already running configurations now correctly exit when another instance
starts up.
- Added Wmii::View#diamond! — a diamond-shaped automated client
arrangement.
- Added Wmii::Area#length= for setting number of clients in a column.
2006-09-11
- Added exception logging and recovery mechanism.
- wmiirc is now split into a loader file (wmiirc) and a configuration file
(wmiirc-config.rb), just like in the ruby-wmii project.
- IXPException’ are no longer hidden away inside Ixp.
- Moved support for destructive area-operations from Wmii#with_selection into
Array#each so that it is
generally available.
2006-09-10
- Added wmiish—an interactive Ruby shell for controlling wmii.
- Lots of major refactoring in Ixp and Wmii.
- Moved utility methods from wmiirc into rc.rb.
2006-09-09
- Cleaned up IXP abstraction… now multiple levels of method_missing
works, and so does self[sub_path]
- Wmii#with_selection now supports destructive area-operations.
- Update for compliance with new unique-client-id in filesystem patch.
2006-08-31
- Added facility which sends the selection to temporary view or switches back
again.
2006-08-30
- Add Wmii#with_selection method for operating on all clients in selection.
