new version of evilwm is out! here comes an ebuild that compiles on my system. I know it is not correctly named , but this way I got it to compile (I'm not that experienced at making ebuilds). there are some lines that I have left commented out for others to decide: - 1st one changes location of configfole from $HOME/.evilwmrc to $HOME/.config/.evilwmrc -my personal preference - 2nd one changes the the key-bind for max-horizontal from '=' to 'z' -again my personal preference - 3rd, 4th and 5th apply som patches I have written, these patches should be applied in the order given, otherwise might fail! 1-focus.patch - fix an InputFocus issue I've had when switching deskops (the issue only occured when firefox and rxvt-unicode was inwolved). 2-vdesk.patch - add two more virtual desktops on key '9' and '0' 3-opacity-patch - add a feature to set window transparency through key-bindings. this feature is not (yet) documented in the man page, but is simple to use: altMask (default: ctrl+alt+shift) + [numeric key] -> '1' ~ 10% opacity (most transparent) ; '2' ~ 20% ; ... ; '9' ~ 90% ; '0' = not transparent. Note_1: the opacity-patch don't have any effect without a composite wm, I use it with xcompmgr! Note_2: the opacity-patch started from playing around with 'transset' by Matthew Hawn! none of the patches have been extensivly tested, but it works on my configuration! any feedback are welcome. Reproducible: Always

+*evilwm-1.1.0_pre8 (13 Jun 2010) + + 13 Jun 2010; Samuli Suominen <ssuominen@gentoo.org> + +evilwm-1.1.0_pre8.ebuild: + Version bump wrt #317357 by Rasmus Thystrup Karstensen. The patches are more of enhancements, and upstream is active so i'd rather wait for him to look at them first, and get them with _pre9. Afterall he's the best to review his own code.
