Description J.O. Aho 2012-01-06 14:08:22 UTC
A new version of CTWM has been released, new version is 3.8.1

    Changes from version 3.8 to 3.8.1                                                                                                               
    ---------------------------------                                                                                                
    1 - Fix bug causing [de]iconified status of windows to not be maintained across workspaces.                                                                                                              [Matthew Fuller]                                                                                                                                        
    2 - Quite a bunch of compiler warnings.                                                                                                         
        [Matthew Fuller]                                                                                                                            
    3 - Make sure we fully initialize our WorkSpaceWindow structure so                                                                              
        we don't try to dereference uninitialized pointers later on.                                                                                
        [Matthew Fuller]                                                                                                                             
    4 - Increased the number of supported mouse buttons again, having                                                                               
        just heard of a mouse with 9 possible buttons...                                                                                            
        [Richard Levitte]                                                                                                                         
    5 - Fix a bug in the warping "next" function, where if there is a                                                                               
        single window and the cursor is not on it, invoking 'f.warpring                                                                             
        "next"' does nothing.                                                                                                                       
        [Martin Blais]                                                                                                                                    
    6 - Introduce a new feature called "SaveWorkspaceFocus", which when         enabled, makes ctwm remember which window has the focus within                                                                              
        each virtual workspace. As you switch workspaces, the cursor is                                                                             
        automatically warped to the window previous in focus in the                                                                                 
        workspace. This significantly reduces the amount of mouse use.                                                                              
        [Martin Blais]                                                                                                                                      
    7 - From Matthias Kretschmer <kretschm@cs.uni-bonn.de>:                                                                                         
        f.fill patch.                                                                                                                               
        Without the patch, you might get windows which are increased by                                                                             
        two times the border width more than it should be.  Additionally                                                                            
        if you place a window with no/not much size contrainst like                                                                                 
        firefox in the upper left corner and perform f.fill "top" or                                                                                
        f.fill "left" the size of the window will increase by two times                                                                             
        the border width in width and height without changing the                                                                                   
        top-left coordinate without the patch.  Of course in such a           situation the size should not change at all...                                                                                              
        [via Olaf Seibert]

If need, I would be happy to maintain CTWM in Gentoo.
