1 -- ChangeLog for Blackbox 0.70.x
3 Changes from 0.65.x to 0.70.0:
4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6 This is a major update resulting from a long development cycle... the
7 list below is a general list and does not cover all changes in detail.
9 - introduced a utility library (libbt) for aiding in writing
10 small blackbox oriented applications
11 - all menus are now proper popup menus, with keyboard navigation
12 - complete EWMH support
13 - Xft support has been added to support anti-aliased fonts
14 - support for texture borders has been added... any texture can now
15 have a border of arbitrary width and color
16 - ~/.blackboxrc is no longer written on exit or restart. Instead it
17 is written whenever a change is made. This means the rc can be
18 edited while Blackbox is running (finally).
19 - support for always-on-top and always-on-bottom has been added
20 - support for fullscreen windows has been added
21 - support for all EWMH window types has been added (e.g. desktop
22 windows, dock windows, dialogs, etc.)
23 - support for window groups has been added
24 - support for transient windows has been improved
25 - it is now possible to completely disable the toolbar
26 - when the toolbar and slit are no longer in use, they are
27 destroyed... they will be recreated when needed
28 - the style file format has changed. a new utility, bstyleconvert,
29 can be used to convert older 0.65.0 styles to the 0.70.0 format
30 - the format of ~/.blackboxrc has changed. Blackbox will
31 automatically convert to the new format.
32 - both the look and feel have been updated, feedback is encouraged
