2013 09 26: Sawfish 1.10
Hi folks,
we finally did it, Sawfish 1.10 "Soundtropolis" is now available!
Special Thanks
- fuchur
- Jose A. Ortega Ruiz
- everyone else who contributed to this release
Highlights
- bugfixes in tabs / SawfishConfig and more
- tiling. Thanks to the awesome work done by Jose A. Ortega Ruiz Sawfish is now a stacking / tiling hybrid. The NEWS contains example configuration.
- sawfish.wm.prg: integration of external applications into Sawfish / SawfishConfig (trayer, xmobar, xmodmap, xsettingsd, xgamma, fehlstart, pancake), see docs/AUTOSTART for more information about them.
- compton integration. Thanks to fuchurs mind-reading capatibilities the compton compositing manager now neatly integrates with Sawfish / SawfishConfig, allowing you to change most options for compton directly from SawfishConfig.

NEWS
1.10 "Soundtropolis"
====================
* Updated or New dependencies
- PangoX: no longer required
* Bug Fixes
- Always rebuild the list of marked windows in tabs when closing
a marked window. [fuchur]
- In 'sawfish-config' fix the 'make-choice-item' to properly
support settings for the 'Crux' theme. [Vedat Hallac]
- Only allow a window to be tabbed, if the parent window's
framestyle has support for tabs. (Note that in Sawfish
different windows can have different framestyles) [fuchur]
- 'window-ops-menu' was still calling
'resize-window-to-dimension' that didn't exist anymore since
Sawfish 1.7. Use 'resize-window-prompt' instead.
[Christopher Bratusek]
- Make "Sawfish Rootmenu" label an insensitive menu-item, so
that clicking it while the root-menu pops up doesn't make the
menu disappear immediately. [Christopher Bratusek]
- In SawfishConfig you can select different cursor shapes for
different buttons. Some of the definitions have been wrong
and could crash Sawfish when choosing them. This is fixed
now. [fuchur]
- When a windows 'max-width' or 'max-height' would exceed 32767
(X11's maximum) it would result in odd window-behaviour (for
example: no maximization button), this is fixed by capping the
value at 32767. Originally reported with Firefox and
Thunderbird 17.0 [Michael Panteleit]
- Fixed grabbing key-bindings in SawfishConfig. [Christopher
Bratusek]
- Fixed non-working '$height-content' and '$width-content' in
the mxflat theme [Robert Zenz]
- Fixed remembering all window properties after switching
workspaces [fuchur]
* New Features
- Tiling. [Jose A. Ortega Ruiz] [Christopher Bratusek] here are
still minor hickups, but both 'tall-tile' and 'col-tile' are
working (see also 'lisp/sawfish/wm/tile/readme.org'):
'tall-tile': one big (master) window on the left, small
windows on the right
'col-tile': tile windows as columns (recommended for
multi-head configurations)
;; Example Tiling configuration in Sawfish's resource file
(require 'sawfish.wm.tile.tile)
(tall-tiling 0 #:width 1.75 #:top 0 #:bottom 0 #:gap 3 #:max 3 #:right nil #:resize t)
(col-tiling 0 #:top 0 #:bottom 0 #:gap 3 #:cols 3 #:resize t)
(bind-keys global-keymap
"C-S-KP_Add" 'increase-max-windows
"C-S-KP_Subtract" 'decrease-max-windows
"C-M-KP_Add" 'increase-cols
"C-M-KP_Subtract" 'decrease-cols
"C-M-Right" 'tall-rotate-right
"C-M-Left" 'tall-rotate-left
"C-F11" 'next-tiling)
- Added full compton integration (including autostarting compton
with Sawfish). Compton is a fork of xcompmgr with many bug
fixes and many improvements compared to the original.
Using 'sawfish-config' it is also possible to change most
compton options directly from within Sawfish. [fuchur]
- Make 'focus-when-mapped' window-matcher chooseable from 'never
'maybe and 'always. 'never is suggested for KDE users to be
applied to Plasma in order to prevent notification popups to
take focus from currently active window (and possibly loosing
keyboard input) [fuchur]
- Completeley revised 'resize-window-prompt'. Now display
window's name and old width (respectively old height) when
prompt for new values. Shows an information, if one of the
given values is not actually a number. [Christopher Bratusek]
- External Application modules. Those modules allow handling,
setting-up and starting external applications during a sawfish
session. See 'doc/AUTOSTART' for additional notes on them.
++ 'trayer' module. Handles a 'trayer' (a system-tray)
instance during a sawfish session. [Christopher
Bratusek]
++ 'xmobar' module. Handles a 'xmobar' (an on-screen, very
flexible bar, monitoring whatever you like) instance
during a sawfish session. [Christopher Bratusek]
++ 'xmodmap' module. Allows reading '~/.Xmodmap' on
startup of Sawfish. Useful only if using Sawfish
standalone without a session-manager that already does
this. [Christopher Bratusek]
++ 'xsettingsd' module. Handles a 'xsettingsd' (a daemon
implementing XSettings to provide GTK+2 application with
information like what theme to use))instance during a
sawfish session. [Christopher Bratusek]
++ 'xgamma' module. Allows changing display's gamma
settings on startup of Sawfish. [Christopher Bratusek]
++ 'fehlstart' module. Handles a 'fehlstart' (a simple,
but yet flexible application launcher) instance during a
sawfish session. [Christopher Bratusek]
++ 'pancake' module. Handles a 'pancake' (a simple desktop
panel with pager, window-list, taskbar, tray) instance
during a sawfish session [Christopher Bratusek]
- Added 'force-tab' window-matcher, forcing a window to be
tabbed. [fuchur]
- Added 'window-type' window-matcher. This allows you to change
the '_NET_WM_TYPE' of a window. Specifications explicitly
state that the client (Sawfish in this case) is not allowed to
do so. Still, we provide this ability in case of bogus
applications and testing purposes, it is neither desired nor
required for normal work. [fuchur]
- Added 'tab-group-windows-hook', triggered when changing or
creating a tabgroup, returning all windows contained in the
current tabgroup. [fuchur]
* Removed Features
- Removed 'sawfish.wm.ext.expose' in favour of much more
advanced tiling-functions. [Christopher Bratusek]
* Miscellaneous Changes
- Updated 'Elberg-tabbed' and 'gradient-tabbed' for tab-system
as of Sawfish 1.9.1 [fuchur]
- Wallpaper setter now has an option for setting wallpaper on
startup. Image widget is now more robust. [Christopher
Bratusek]
- Improved default keymap for 'titlebar' and 'tabbar'. [fuchur]
- Revived 'decorate-transients', 'menus-include-shortcuts' and
'customize-show-symbols' defcustoms. These options are now
adjustable from 'sawfish-config' again. [Christopher
Bratusek]
- Give the 'root-window' the property ''WINDOW_MANAGER' on
startup with value 'sawfish'. [Christopher Bratusek]
- Updated 'ru' and 'pt_BR' translations via transifex.
2012 09 01: Sawfish 1.9.1

1.9.1 "Voyager"
===============
* Bug Fixes
- `dimension' window-matcher does now properly restore the
window's size [Robert Zenz]
- When destroying a window marked for tabbing, before tabbing
was done, tabbing didn't work anymore until Sawfish
restarted. This is fixed now. [fuchur]
- In `Makedefs.in' source `$(repexecdir)/rules.mk' as first, so
that `--prefix' and co. from `configure' won't get
overwritten. [Allin Cottrell]
- In `tabs' some minor issues have been fixed, like correct
`raise' or `sticky' tabs, and some issue with `move-resize'
tabs. [fuchur]
- Only allow '_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_NORMAL to be marked as a
tabbed window. [fuchur]
* New Features
- In tabbed-windowing it is now possible to add a whole
tab-group to another tab-group, or a single window. By
default the keybinding is `C-Button2-Off'. [fuchur]
- Tabs now support `viewport-sticky' and `workspace-sticky'.
[fuchur]
- Tabs now support coloring the window-title in a different
color, for windows, which are marked for tabbing. Currently
only `StyleTab' uses this feature. [fuchur]
* Miscellaneous Changes
- In razor-qt integration module add `About Razor-Qt' help
entry [Christopher Bratusek]
- Replace `gdk_pixbuf_unref' by `g_object_unref' [Togan
Muftuoglu]
- Fix the address of FSF in all relevant files [Togan Muftuoglu]
- Change cursor shape when working with tabs [fuchur]
- Removed `sawfish.wm.util.marks', now implemented in
`sawfish.wm.tabs.tab'. [fuchur]
- Fix debian packaging scripts for Debian/Unstable, update
install-sh to 2011-01-19.21, also remove NEWS and config.h.in
upon `make gitclean'.[Christopher Bratusek]

ChangeLog
1.9.0 "Next Dimensional World"
=========================
* Updated or New dependencies
- librep 0.92.0 -> 0.92.1
- rep-gtk 0.90.4 -> 0.90.7
- ssd 0.30 [optional, for built-in poweroff-menu]
* Bug Fixes
- When cursor-warping was enabled and user switched to a shaded
window, the cursor warped to the position of the unshaded
window. This is fixed now. [Christopher Bratusek]
- When switching between tabbed themes from SawfishConfig, it
could happens that there were `gaps' in the frame. This is
fixed now. [Christopher Bratusek]
- In SawfishConfig one could only grab key-bindings, but not
mouse- or mixed mouse-key-bindings. This is fixed now. (Move
mouse 20 pixels to grab a `Move' event). [Christopher
Bratusek]
- SawfishConfig became useless when Sawfish restarted. This is
now worked-around by simply restarting SawfishConfig when
Sawfish does. A new `before-restart-hook' has been added for
this purpose. [Christopher Bratusek]
- In EdgeActions `HotSpot', `HotMove' and `EdgeFlip', it was
possible to trigger the same event multiple times at a time.
This is fixed now. [Jeremy Hankins]
- Fixed a bug in apps-menu, failing to generate the menu, if a
desktop-file contains both Categories and the (errorneous)
Category key, or only the later. [Matthew Love]
- Fixed a bug in window-manager selection handling. Set all
fields of the client message event. This prevents bugs, where
Sawfish sometimes isn't able to replace another
window-manager or aquiring the screen if no other WM is
running. [Timo Korvola]
- When making X request, we might receive and `select' will
stuck. This is fixed now [Michal Maruska]
- Avoid calling Xmap for gone windows. [Michal Maruska]
- Fixed a possible segmentation fault in `leave_notify' [Michal
Maruska]
- In SawfishConfig the `choice' widget didn't work when the
choices were numerical values. This is fixed now.
[Christopher Bratusek]
* Sawfish-MMC [Michal Maruska]
Sawfish-MMC was a fork of Sawfish active, while the original
Sawfish was inactive (2004-2007). Next follows a list of changes
merged from Sawfish-MMC.
- Only apply property changes if window as `refresh' property.
- In the pixmap-cache append pixmaps to the age list, rather
than prepending.
- Extend `pixmap-cache-control' to reset and return more
informations.
- `pixmap-cache-images' returns all images in cache.
- When initializing Sawfish, try to initialize XKB, too.
- Misc: Drop unused `prog_name' from `display.c'. Call
`XAddToSaveSet' from a better position in the code. Mar
`mapped_not_override_p' static. Simplified `property_notify'.
* EdgeAction changes [Christopher Bratusek]
- New EdgeActions:
x `HotMove'. Calls an EdgeAction when dragging a window
over the edge.
x `Expose'. Simple expose (one-shot tiling) EdgeAction
(can also be used stand-alone). Original code by Mark
Triggs.
x `Expand'. Drag a window over the edge and it expand to
the half-screen size.
x `Show-Desktop'. Toggles between `show-desktop' and
`hide-desktop'.
x `Maximize'. Just for competitive reasons choosable from
configurator.
- `before-edge-action-hook' and `after-edge-action-hook'. While
`enter-flipper-hook' and `leave-flipper-hook' simply respond
to the mouse entering or leaving the flipper-window, the new
hooks respond only when an EdgeAction was invoked. The two
hooks pass the invoked EdgeAction, activated edge and a
boolean `while-moving' value to the child-function (in that
order).
- Simplified, more robust EdgeFlip (flip-viewport and
flip-workspace are now split).
- Improved logic of blocking an action while another is already
running. On one hand, see `Bug Fixes' above, on the other
hand it's now ensured that we dont' activate an edge twice
when dragging a window over it or when the pointer hits the
edge via mouse-trapping.
- New `move-window-to-corner' and `move-window-to-edge' helpers.
- Updated EdgeAction documentation
* SawfishConfig changes [Christopher Bratusek]
- Updated and Improved widgets in SawfishConfig:
x `file'. The file(-chooser) widget now uses
GtkFileChooserButton in favour of the ancient
GtkFileSelectionDialog. The GtkEntry and GtkVBox used as
helpers became useless and are removed.
x `font'. The font(-chooser) widget now uses
GtkFontChooserButton in favour of the ancient
GtkFontSelectionDialog. The GtkEntry used as helper
became useless and is removed.
x `choice', `symbol', `keymap', `frame-style'. Those
widgets now use GtkComboBoxText in favour of ancient
GtkCombo/GtkComboEntry.
x `scheme-boolean'. This widget is now properly
implemented.
Old: two checkboxes. First for activating setting,
second for choosing yes or no. New: only one checkbox,
yes or no as usual, shows minus when unset.
x `number'. The number-widget now has a `stepping'
property, allowing to change the increment of a
button-press on the spin-button.
- New widgets in SawfishConfig:
x `range'. The range widget represents an integer with a
given range. Basically it uses a GtkScale instead of a
GtkSpinButton, which results in a better user-experience
for those values.
x `image'. The image widget contains a preview and
image-selector. The file-browser openend is setup to
display previews, too. Original code by Lucas Pandolfo.
- Removed widgets in SawfishConfig:
x `program'. Just an alias to `file'.
x All `gtk-only' widgets. Since Sawfish 1.5.0 those have
been dummies, we don't use `libgnome', `libgnomeui' or
`libgnomecanvas' anymore anyway.
- New buttons. SawfishConfig now offers buttons to access Wiki,
Help, ResourceFile and About. Additionally there's now a
file-chooser for installing themes from `*.tar.*' files.
- Widgets that depend on an disabled setting are now hidden
instead of greyed-out.
- Merged sawfish.cfg.widgets into sawfish.gtk.widgets. Old
widgets aren't loaded anymore, even if present from an old
installation.
- All defcustoms do now have a property to change the position
of the label. To change it, append on of the following to
the doc-string: \\left \\right \\top \\bottom.
Example:
(defcustom test-var 'eclipse
"This is just a test with label on top. \\top"
:type (choice eclipse crosshair none)
:group appearance)
Of course that only works, if the label is a GtkLabel widget
on it's own.
* Theme/Theming changes [Christopher Bratusek]
=== spoiler === : StyleTab in Sawfish 1.9 add lots of new
fancyness for the price of beeing slow. So if you experience
a long startup-time of Sawfish, it's a feature, not a bug. :
== /spoiler ===
- StyleTab changes [fuchur]:
x The theme is now fully re-colorable. You can choose
different colors for each button and the frame.
Furthermore you can choose how much to dimm inactive
frames (compared to active).
x Majorly improved the grouping of options in StyleTab.
x Added corners to frames (allowing resize with mouse at
window-corners).
x Available styles: Default (former Dark), WixDa (former
Silver), Reduce, Smoothly and Glass (New).
x Added hash-tables for images.
- New themes:
x Candido
x Zami-like
- Improved themes:
x Gradient has been replaced by Gradient-tabbed.
- Removed themes [still available from Wiki]:
x get-S-tabbed
x brushed-metal
x simple
x smaker
x mono
x gtk
- New theme-related configuration-options [theme independent]:
x Added an option to control the titlebar text position.
If a theme draws something additional in the titlebar
(eg. StyleTab draws an icon), refer to the functions
`update-title-x-offsets', `update-title-y-offsets'.
x Added an option to control the cursor-shape when
hovering frame-buttons.
x Added an option to change the font, depending on the
window state.
- Moved definitons for `previous-workspace-button' and
`next-workspace-button' from StyleTab into Sawfish.
* New Features
- Added `cabinet' application-switcher. `cabinet' is an
advanced application switcher for Sawfish. For more
information please visit:
http://sawfish.wikia.com/wiki/Cabinet [Wang HongQin]
- Added `tab-group' window-matcher. It allows window to be
auto-tabbed together, if they got the same `tab-group'
property [fuchur]
- Added `single-window-mode'. Basically this feature is known
from OS-X, though it's implemented in a more strict way. The
`single-window-mode' window should get all of the users
attention.
This is ensured by auto-iconifying any up-popping window,
which is not in the same group. To additionally not annoy the
user this is done without animation. Avoided or ignored
windows are lowered. When `single-window-mode' is quit, the
opposite happens.
Also `single-window-mode' hooks into unmap-notify-hook to
check whether the user wants to stop `single-window-mode' (by
either closing or iconifying the window). Besides each
workspace can hold it's own `single-window-mode'.
- Added `mouse-trap' feature. It provides a method for moving
the mouse to any place of the screen by zooming with just a
few keystrokes. The mouse is warped to the center of the
screen screen and a outline is drawn dividing the screen in 4
squares (like trapping the mouse on it). [Fernando Carmano
Varo] [Christopher Bratusek]
- Added `shade-stack' feature. It provides an alternative to
`iconify-window'. Instead of iconifying a window or minizing
it to a tray, the windows get shaded and sorted in a stack
starting from the top-left corner (the number of columns can
be changed). Combined with auto-unshade this offers -
possibly - a better way of interacting with windows which
aren't required at the moment. Original code by Luke Gorrie.
[Christopher Bratusek]
- Integrated settings for selecting wallpaper using an external
command (eg: hsetroot). Applying settings to GNOME2 or XFCE4
is also supported. Original code by Lucas Pandolfo.
[Christopher Bratusek]
- Added `toggle-desktop' function. Toggles between
`show-desktop' and `hide-desktop' - always logically correct.
[Christopher Bratusek]
* Miscellaneous Changes
- Improved desktop-integration modules [Christopher Bratusek]
x KDE integration: added entries for user-switch,
hibernate, suspend, lock-screen, menu-editor.
x XFCE integration: added entries for hibernate, suspend,
lock-screen, menu-editor.
x GNOME integration: added entry for lock-screen,
menu-editor.
x MATE integration: full integration module for MATE
Desktop has been added.
x Razor-Qt integration: full integration module for
Razor-Qt has been added.
x LXDE integration: basic integration module for LXDE has
been added.
- The fallback poweroff-menu now uses SSD
`Sawfish-Session-Dialog', a companion to Sawfish, by default.
Support for logout and lockdown has been added. [Christopher
Bratusek]
- Added a `filemanager' launcher. If set the Sawfish root-menu
will show an `Open Home' entry. The KDE, GNOME, MATE, XFCE
and LXDE integration modules will set the program
accordingly, unless it's already user-defined.

x `file'. The file(-chooser) widget now uses
GtkFileChooserButton in favour of the ancient
GtkFileSelectionDialog. The GtkEntry and GtkVBox used as
helpers became useless and are removed.
x `font'. The font(-chooser) widget now uses
GtkFontChooserButton in favour of the ancient
GtkFontSelectionDialog. The GtkEntry used as helper
became useless and is removed.
x `choice', `symbol', `keymap', `frame-style'. Those
widgets now use GtkComboBoxText in favour of ancient
GtkCombo/GtkComboEntry.
x `scheme-boolean'. This widget is now properly
implemented.
Old: two checkboxes. First for activating setting,
second for choosing yes or no. New: only one checkbox,
yes or no as usual, shows minus when unset.
x `number'. The number-widget now has a `stepping'
property, allowing to change the increment of a
button-press on the spin-button.
- New widgets in SawfishConfig:
x `range'. The range widget represents an integer with a
given range. Basically it uses a GtkScale instead of a
GtkSpinButton, which results in a better user-experience
for those values.
x `image'. The image widget contains a preview and
image-selector. The file-browser openend is setup to
display previews, too. Original code by Lucas Pandolfo.
- Removed widgets in SawfishConfig:
x `program'. Just an alias to `file'.
x All `gtk-only' widgets. Since Sawfish 1.5.0 those have
been dummies, we don't use `libgnome', `libgnomeui' or
`libgnomecanvas' anymore anyway.
- New buttons. SawfishConfig now offers buttons to access Wiki,
Help, ResourceFile and About. Additionally there's now a
file-chooser for installing themes from `*.tar.*' files.
- Widgets that depend on an disabled setting are now hidden
instead of greyed-out.
- Merged sawfish.cfg.widgets into sawfish.gtk.widgets. Old
widgets aren't loaded anymore, even if present from an old
installation.
- All defcustoms do now have a property to change the position
of the label. To change it, append on of the following to
the doc-string: \\left \\right \\top \\bottom.
Example:
(defcustom test-var 'eclipse
"This is just a test with label on top. \\top"
:type (choice eclipse crosshair none)
:group appearance)
Of course that only works, if the label is a GtkLabel widget
on it's own.
* Theme/Theming changes [Christopher Bratusek]
=== spoiler === : StyleTab in Sawfish 1.9 add lots of new
fancyness for the price of beeing slow. So if you experience
a long startup-time of Sawfish, it's a feature, not a bug. :
== /spoiler ===
- StyleTab changes:
x The theme is now fully re-colorable. You can choose
different colors for each button and the frame.
Furthermore you can choose how much to dimm inactive
frames (compared to active).
x Majorly improved the grouping of options in StyleTab.
x Added corners to frames (allowing resize with mouse at
window-corners).
x Available styles: Default (former Dark), WixDa (former
Silver), Reduce, Smoothly and Glass (New).
x Added hash-tables for images.
- New themes:
x Candido
x Zami-like
- Improved themes:
x Gradient has been replaced by Gradient-tabbed.
- Removed themes [still available from Wiki]:
x get-S-tabbed
x brushed-metal
x simple
x smaker
x mono
x gtk
- New theme-related configuration-options [theme independent]:
x Added an option to control the titlebar text position.
If a theme draws something additional in the titlebar
(eg. StyleTab draws an icon), refer to the functions
`update-title-x-offsets', `update-title-y-offsets'.
x Added an option to control the cursor-shape when
hovering frame-buttons.
x Added an option to change the font, depending on the
window state.
- Moved definitons for `previous-workspace-button' and
`next-workspace-button' from StyleTab into Sawfish.
* New Features
- Added `single-window-mode'. Basically this feature is known
from OS-X, though it's implemented in a more strict way. The
`single-window-mode' window should get all of the users
attention.
This is ensured by auto-iconifying any up-popping window,
which is not in the same group. To additionally not annoy the
user this is done without animation. Avoided or ignored
windows are lowered. When `single-window-mode' is quit, the
opposite happens.
Also `single-window-mode' hooks into unmap-notify-hook to
check whether the user wants to stop `single-window-mode' (by
either closing or iconifying the window). Besides each
workspace can hold it's own `single-window-mode'.
- Added `mouse-trap' feature. It provides a method for moving
the mouse to any place of the screen by zooming with just a
few keystrokes. The mouse is warped to the center of the
screen screen and a outline is drawn dividing the screen in 4
squares (like trapping the mouse on it). [Fernando Carmano
Varo] [Christopher Bratusek]
- Added `shade-stack' feature. It provides an alternative to
`iconify-window'. Instead of iconifying a window or minizing
it to a tray, the windows get shaded and sorted in a stack
starting from the top-left corner (the number of columns can
be changed). Combined with auto-unshade this offers -
possibly - a better way of interacting with windows which
aren't required at the moment. Original code by Luke Gorrie.
[Christopher Bratusek]
- Integrated settings for selecting wallpaper using an external
command (eg: hsetroot). Applying settings to GNOME2 or XFCE4
is also supported. Original code by Lucas Pandolfo.
[Christopher Bratusek]
- Added `toggle-desktop' function. Toggles between
`show-desktop' and `hide-desktop' - always logically correct.
[Christopher Bratusek]
* Miscellaneous Changes
- Improved desktop-integration modules [Christopher Bratusek]
x KDE integration: added entries for user-switch,
hibernate, suspend, lock-screen, menu-editor.
x XFCE integration: added entries for hibernate, suspend,
lock-screen, menu-editor.
x GNOME integration: added entry for lock-screen,
menu-editor.
x MATE integration: full integration module for MATE
Desktop has been added.
x Razor-Qt integration: integration module for Razor-Qt
has been added.
x The fallback poweroff-menu now uses SSD
`Sawfish-Session-Dialog', a companion to Sawfish, by
default. Support for logout and lockdown has been added.

1.8.91 "3 The Hard Way"
=======================
* Updated or New dependencies
- librep 0.92.0 -> 0.92.1
- rep-gtk 0.90.4 -> 0.90.7
* Bug Fixes
- When cursor-warping was enabled and user switched to a shaded
window, the cursor warped to the position of the unshaded
window. This is fixed now. [Christopher Bratusek]
- When switching between tabbed themes from SawfishConfig, it
could happens that there were `gaps' in the frame. This is
fixed now. [Christopher Bratusek]
- In SawfishConfig one could only grab key-bindings, but not
mouse- or mixed mouse-key-bindings. This is fixed now. (Move
mouse 20 pixels to grab a `Move' event). [Christopher
Bratusek]
- SawfishConfig became useless when Sawfish restarted. This is
now worked-around by simply restarting SawfishConfig when
Sawfish does. A new `before-restart-hook' has been added for
this purpose. [Christopher Bratusek]
- In EdgeActions `HotSpot', `HotMove' and `EdgeFlip', it was
possible to trigger the same event multiple times at a time.
This is fixed now. [Jeremy Hankins]
- Fixed a bug in apps-menu, failing to generate the menu, if a
desktop-file contains both Categories and the (errorneous)
Category key, or only the later. [Matthew Love]
- Fixed a bug in window-manager selection handling. Set all
fields of the client message event. This prevents bugs, where
Sawfish sometimes isn't able to replace another
window-manager or aquiring the screen if no other WM is
running. [Timo Korvola]
- When making X request, we might receive and `select' will
stuck. This is fixed now [Michal Maruska]
- Avoid calling Xmap for gone windows. [Michal Maruska]
- Fixed a possible segmentation fault in `leave_notify' [Michal
Maruska]
- In SawfishConfig the `choice' widget didn't work when the
choices were numerical values. This is fixed now.
[Christopher Bratusek]
* Sawfish-MMC [Michal Maruska]
Sawfish-MMC was a fork of Sawfish active, while the original
Sawfish was inactive (2004-2007). Next follows a list of changes
merged from Sawfish-MMC.
- Only apply property changes if window as `refresh' property.
- In the pixmap-cache append pixmaps to the age list, rather
than prepending.
- Extend `pixmap-cache-control' to reset and return more
informations.
- `pixmap-cache-images' returns all images in cache.
- When initializing Sawfish, try to initialize XKB, too.
- Misc: Drop unused `prog_name' from `display.c'. Call
`XAddToSaveSet' from a better position in the code. Mar
`mapped_not_override_p' static. Simplified `property_notify'.
* EdgeAction changes [Christopher Bratusek]
- New EdgeActions:
x `HotMove'. Calls an EdgeAction when dragging a window
over the edge.
x `Expose'. Simple expose (one-shot tiling) EdgeAction
(can also be used stand-alone). Original code by Mark
Triggs.
x `Expand'. Drag a window over the edge and it expand to
the half-screen size.
x `Show-Desktop'. Toggles between `show-desktop' and
`hide-desktop'.
x `Maximize'. Just for competitive reasons choosable from
configurator.
- `before-edge-action-hook' and `after-edge-action-hook'. While
`enter-flipper-hook' and `leave-flipper-hook' simply respond
to the mouse entering or leaving the flipper-window, the new
hooks respond only when an EdgeAction was invoked. The two
hooks pass the invoked EdgeAction, activated edge and a
boolean `while-moving' value to the child-function (in that
order).
- Simplified, more robust EdgeFlip (flip-viewport and
flip-workspace are now split).
- Improved logic of blocking an action while another is already
running. On one hand, see `Bug Fixes' above, on the other
hand it's now ensured that we dont' activate an edge twice
when dragging a window over it or when the pointer hits the
edge via mouse-trapping.
- New `move-window-to-corner' and `move-window-to-edge' helpers.
- Updated EdgeAction documentation
* SawfishConfig changes [Christopher Bratusek]
- Updated and Improved widgets in SawfishConfig:
x `file'. The file(-chooser) widget now uses
GtkFileChooserButton in favour of the ancient
GtkFileSelectionDialog. The GtkEntry and GtkVBox used as
helpers became useless and are removed.
x `font'. The font(-chooser) widget now uses
GtkFontChooserButton in favour of the ancient
GtkFontSelectionDialog. The GtkEntry used as helper
became useless and is removed.
x `choice', `symbol', `keymap', `frame-style'. Those
widgets now use GtkComboBoxText in favour of ancient
GtkCombo/GtkComboEntry.
x `scheme-boolean'. This widget is now properly
implemented.
Old: two checkboxes. First for activating setting,
second for choosing yes or no. New: only one checkbox,
yes or no as usual, shows minus when unset.
x `number'. The number-widget now has a `stepping'
property, allowing to change the increment of a
button-press on the spin-button.
- New widgets in SawfishConfig:
x `range'. The range widget represents an integer with a
given range. Basically it uses a GtkScale instead of a
GtkSpinButton, which results in a better user-experience
for those values.
x `image'. The image widget contains a preview and
image-selector. The file-browser openend is setup to
display previews, too. Original code by Lucas Pandolfo.
- Removed widgets in SawfishConfig:
x `program'. Just an alias to `file'.
x All `gtk-only' widgets. Since Sawfish 1.5.0 those have
been dummies, we don't use `libgnome', `libgnomeui' or
`libgnomecanvas' anymore anyway.
- New buttons. SawfishConfig now offers buttons to access Wiki,
Help, ResourceFile and About. Additionally there's now a
file-chooser for installing themes from `*.tar.*' files.
- Widgets that depend on an disabled setting are now hidden
instead of greyed-out.
- Merged sawfish.cfg.widgets into sawfish.gtk.widgets. Old
widgets aren't loaded anymore, even if present from an old
installation.
- All defcustoms do now have a property to change the position
of the label. To change it, append on of the following to
the doc-string: \\left \\right \\top \\bottom.
Example:
(defcustom test-var 'eclipse
"This is just a test with label on top. \\top"
:type (choice eclipse crosshair none)
:group appearance)
Of course that only works, if the label is a GtkLabel widget
on it's own.

x `HotMove'. Calls an EdgeAction when dragging a window
over the edge.
x `Tile'. Simple tiling EdgeAction (can also be used
stand-alone). Original code by Mark Triggs.
- `before-edge-action-hook' and `after-edge-action-hook'. While
`enter-flipper-hook' and `leave-flipper-hook' simply respond
to the mouse entering or leaving the flipper-window, the new
hooks respond only when an EdgeAction was invoked. The two
hooks pass the invoked EdgeAction, activated edge and a
boolean `while-moving' value to the child-function (in that
order).
- Simplified, more robust EdgeFlip (flip-viewport and
flip-workspace are now split).
- Improved logic of blocking an action while another is already
running. On one hand, see `Bug Fixes' above, on the other
hand it's now ensured that we dont' activate an edge twice
when dragging a window over it or when the pointer hits the
edge via mouse-trapping.
- Updated EdgeAction documentation
* SawfishConfig changes [Christopher Bratusek]
- Updated and Improved widgets in SawfishConfig:
x `file'. The file(-chooser) widget now uses
GtkFileChooserButton in favour of the ancient
GtkFileSelectionDialog. The GtkEntry and GtkVBox used as
helpers became useless and are removed.
x `font'. The font(-chooser) widget now uses
GtkFontChooserButton in favour of the ancient
GtkFontSelectionDialog. The GtkEntry used as helper
became useless and is removed.
x `choice', `symbol', `keymap', `frame-style'. Those
widgets now use GtkComboBoxText in favour of ancient
GtkCombo/GtkComboEntry.
x `scheme-boolean'. This widget is now properly
implemented.
Old: two checkboxes. First for activating setting,
second for choosing yes or no. New: only one checkbox,
yes or no as usual, shows minus when unset.
- New widgets in SawfishConfig:
x `range'. The range widget represents an integer with a
given range. Basically it uses a GtkScale instead of a
GtkSpinButton, which results in a better user-experience
for those values.
x `image'. The image widget contains a preview and
image-selector. The file-browser openend is setup to
display previews, too. Original code by Lucas Pandolfo.
- Removed widgets in SawfishConfig:
x `program'. Just an alias to `file'.
x All `gtk-only' widgets. Since Sawfish 1.5.0 those have
been dummies, we don't use `libgnome', `libgnomeui' or
`libgnomecanvas' anymore anyway.
- New buttons. SawfishConfig now offers buttons to access Wiki,
Help, ResourceFile and About. Additionally there's now a
file-chooser for installing themes from `*.tar.*' files.
- Widgets that depend on an disabled setting are now hidden
instead of greyed-out.
- Merged sawfish.cfg.widgets into sawfish.gtk.widgets. Old
widgets aren't loaded anymore, even if present from an old
installation.
- All defcustoms do now have a property to change the position
of the label. To change it, append on of the following to
the doc-string: \\left \\right \\top \\bottom.
Example:
(defcustom test-var 'eclipse
"This is just a test with label on top. \\top"
:type (choice eclipse crosshair none)
:group appearance)
Of course that only works, if the label is a GtkLabel widget
on it's own.
* Theme/Theming changes [Christopher Bratusek]
- New themes:
x Candido
x Zami-like
- Improved themes:
x Gradient has been replaced by Gradient-tabbed.
- Removed themes [still available from Wiki]:
x get-S-tabbed
x brushed-metal
x simple
x smaker
x mono
x gtk
- New theme-related configuration-options [theme independent]:
x Added an option to control the titlebar text position.
If a theme draws something additional in the titlebar
(eg. StyleTab draws an icon), refer to the functions
`update-title-x-offsets', `update-title-y-offsets'.
x Added an option to control the cursor-shape when
hovering frame-buttons.
x Added an option to change the font, depending on the
window state.
- Majorly improved the grouping of options in StyleTab.
- Moved definitons for `previous-workspace-button' and
`next-workspace-button' from StyleTab into Sawfish.
* New Features
- Added `single-window-mode'. Basically this feature is known
from OS-X, though it's implemented in a more strict way. The
`single-window-mode' window should get all of the users
attention.
This is ensured by auto-iconifying any up-popping window,
which is not in the same group. To additionally not annoy the
user this is done without animation. Avoided or ignored
windows are lowered. When `single-window-mode' is quit, the
opposite happens.
Also `single-window-mode' hooks into unmap-notify-hook to
check whether the user wants to stop `single-window-mode' (by
either closing or iconifying the window). Besides each
workspace can hold it's own `single-window-mode'.
- Added `mouse-trap' feature. It provides a method for moving
the mouse to any place of the screen by zooming with just a
few keystrokes. The mouse is warped to the center of the
screen screen and a outline is drawn dividing the screen in 4
squares (like trapping the mouse on it). [Fernando Carmano
Varo] [Christopher Bratusek]
- Integrated settings for selecting wallpaper using an external
command (eg: hsetroot). Applying settings to GNOME2 or XFCE4
is also supported. Original code by Lucas Pandolfo.
[Christopher Bratusek]
* Miscellaneous Changes
- Improved desktop-integration modules [Christopher Bratusek]
x KDE integration: added entries for user-switch,
hibernate, suspend, lock-screen, menu-editor.
x XFCE integration: added entries for hibernate, suspend,
lock-screen, menu-editor.
x GNOME integration: added entry for lock-screen,
menu-editor.
x The fallback poweroff-menu now uses SSD
`Sawfish-Session-Dialog', a companion to Sawfish, by
default. Support for logout and lockdown has been added.

2011 06 19: Sawfish left GNOME
As some of you (following the ML) already know, Sawfish is moving away from GNOME.
Now the move to Tuxfamily is complete, so here is the new list of resources for both users and developers.
Project-Page: A small overview page with quick access to all interesting links can be found at http://sawfish.tuxfamily.org/
Community-Page: The Wiki isn't affected, so you're right here.
Mailing-List: Instructions for use of the new ML can be found at 2011 06 13: New Maling-List in use!
Bug-Tracker: The new BT can be found at http://sawfish.tuxfamily.org/flyspray/ - you'll find all open issues from the old BT.
Releases: Release tarballs are hosted at Tuxfamily since v1.6, so nothing changed here. Find all links at Download.
GIT Repos: GIT repo for SawfishPager was always at Tuxfamily, librep, rep-gtk and Sawfish followed. Find all links at Download#GIT.
Documentation: You can now read the docs for Sawfish and Rep online. Sawfish: http://sawfish.tuxfamily.org/sawfish.html // Rep: http://sawfish.tuxfamily.org/librep.html
Translations: Since we left GNOME.org the gnome-i18n team won't translate anymore. Thus, we are looking for brave users/contributors doing the job for the community. If you feel like "I'd like to, but dunno how", don't be shy and head-over to the Mailing-List and we'll help you.
Themes: Themes from the Wiki are currently still mostly hosted on SourceForge. We need to write a WikiBot to update the links to point to Tuxfamily.
Reasons: Well... the most important reason was to have full control over project-administration. GNOME doesn't allow it as much as Tuxfamily does. SourceForge would have done, too but we (developers) didn't want to use it and also some users said they don't like it that much. Tuxfamily was choosen as I already hosted my own projects there and knew that it would fullfill our needs. No one rejected the proposal.
Other reasons include that I thought an all-in-one workflow would be much better than having Sawfish cluttered around on SourceForge, GNOME and Tuxfamily. Also it would ease users to find what they look for. Of course the different ideologies played a role, though just a very minor.
After it's revival Sawfish evolved indepedently from GNOME and there's no connection between those two projects in any way anymore.
Future: The next release is 1.9.0 scheduled for december 2011. Featuring improved SawfishConfig, merged Sawfish-MMC (a fork of Sawfish that has been active in the years of Sawfish's dead), changed selection of shipped themes and more.
Sawfish 3.0.0 is scheduled for december 2012. It will use GTK+3 and several internal changes are planned, like switching to a better Lisp or Scheme, or improved handling of keyboard and mouse (eg: support for more than 5 mouse-buttons).
Contributing: Sawfish is a community Project. Anyone with or without development skills is welcome to contribute documentation, wiki-writing, scripts, patches, translations or artwork. Just post it the Mailing-List or the Wiki (where appropriate) and that's all.
Have a nice day! Flashrider [Christopher Bratusek] 13:13, June 19, 2011 (UTC)
2011 06 13: New Maling-List in use!
Good morning folks,
As of today we use the new Maling-List @Tuxfamily, instead of the one @GNOME. Of course the old-one is still alive and it's archive will stay accessible. The old ML will be closed for posting in about 1 or 2 weeks. It's the second-last step of moving the whole Sawfish workflow into one place (BugZilla is the last, in case you wondered).
Here are the instructions for use:
Auto-Subscription: everyone who was on the GNOME-ML in April, is already subscribed to the new ML (and should have received a message).
Subscribing: New users subscribe via sending a mail with subject "subscribe" to sawfish-request-[AT]-lists-[DOT]-tuxfamily-[DOT]-org
Posting: After you subscribed send your Mails to sawfish-[AT]-lists-[DOT]-tuxfamily-[DOT]-org // Note that all messages on the new ML get `[Sawfish]' prefixed. Say you send a mail with subject `test mail to new ml', we will receive `[Sawfish] test mail to new ml'. So if you've setup your mail-application to prefix the mails, you can now deactivate that.
Unsubscribing: To unsubscribe send a mail with subject "unsubscribe" to sawfish-request-[AT]-lists-[DOT]-tuxfamily-[DOT]-org
Archive: Visit the archive here. At the moment there's no way downloading the Archive as Tarball. The TF-Staff may provide them on demand, but I already ask for that feature to be added.
Additional infos about using TF can be found here.
On Tuxfamily.org I have privilege 5 (everything), Janek has 4 (everything, except destroying the project). In case there's something wrong, while I'm off, you may contact him instead.
2011 06 10: Sawfish 1.8.90 Snapshot 01 released

We are moving!
Yes, Sawfish is moving away from GNOME. Our new host will be Tuxfamily.org
and the preparations are going well. For more infos visit the ML. Once the
move is done, all required informations for users will be available on our Wiki.

What's new since 1.7.0?
* Incompatible changes
- Infinite-desktop and edge-flip needs updates.
Open the configurator -> "Edge Actions". Changes will be
easy. (Set 4 pull-downs, and you're done mostly.
"Infinite-desktop" is renamed to "viewport-drag".) For more
options, see "Edge Actions" below.
If your `~/.sawfish/rc' opens related modules, delete those
references. These modules are renamed, and you don't have to
manually load them any more.
- Renamed functions [Teika kazura]
* Popup of operations-menu on a window, renamed from
`popup-window-menu' to `popup-window-ops-menu' (both the
function and command). Old names are still available.
* Renamed window rename, from `rename-window-func' to
`rename-window'. (Old name is still avialable.) The
function `rename-window-interactive' is deleted. Use
`(call-command 'rename-window)' instead.
Even if the old names still remain, it is highly recommended
to update.
- Syntax-change in `jump-or-exec' [Christopher Bratusek]
The previous `class' and `onfocused' parameters are now keys,
and pass them as "#:match-class t/nil" or "#:onfocused
value". Note that `match-class' is _boolean_; To pass a
class, set `#:match-class t' and pass the class name to the
argument `regex'. (*note Application Invocation::)
- Apps-menu options `apps-menu-show-all' is deleted. See below
for more.
- User option `focus-ignore-pointer-events' is deleted. [Teika
kazura]
In fact, it's for internal use, and should not have been a
user option. Use your favorite focus mode instead.
- Animation related modules are renamed [Teika kazura]
All are collected under `sawfish/wm/animation'.
`window-anim.jl' -> `setup.jl', `outline.jl' -> `main.jl',
`util/window-outline.jl' -> `modes.jl'.
* Build and Installation
- Fixed installation for non-root users [Stefano Sabatini]
Previously when installing to a private directory as an
ordinary user, the installation failed, because some files
were forced to be installed in /usr. This is fixed now.
- Session files installation [Christopher Bratusek]
Now you can choose which session files (default: all) to
install with these configure-options:
* `--with/out-kde4session': enable or disable the
installation of session files for KDE4.
* `--with/out-gnome2session': enable or disable the
installation of session files for GNOME2.
* `--with/out-xdmsession': enable or disable the
installation of session files for XDM (or other
display-managers).
- Spec-File compatibility for RHEL 6 beta [Kim B. Heino]
- Debian-Scripts (mostly) updated to the new specification
[Christopher Bratusek]
* Bug fixes
- Poweroff-menu fix [Teika Kazura, Christopher Bratusek]
In Sawfish-1.7.0, poweroff related items in the popup menu
couldn't be invoked, if run without any desktop environment.
Fixed it.
- Correctly build SawfishPager [Christopher Bratusek]
It is ensured that SawfishPager builds correctly, by
improving `sawfish.pc' file.
- At focus in/out, correctly reports the mode [Timo Korvola]
When `focus-in-hook' / `focus-out-hook' are called, Sawfish
wrongly reported a focus change during a grab as "ungrabbed".
Now it's reported as `while-grabbed'.
- Window cycle among groups [Teika Kazura]
Some windows were skipped in window cycles among groups. This
is fixed.
- No more crash at loading wrong theme code [Teika Kazura]
From Sawfish-1.7.0, Sawfish used to crash when a theme with
wrong code is loaded, but it's fixed. It's not complete, and
for example some mxflat options make Sawfish crash.
- Cancellation of `call-command' [Teika kazura]
It used to print an error message when you cancel an
interactive call of `call-command' with the escape key, but
it doesn't any more.
- KDE *.desktop files location [Teika Kazura]
Previously, user's change of the variable
`kde-desktop-directories' was ignored, but this is fixed.
* New Features
- Edge Actions [Christopher Bratusek]
"Edge Actions" is a centralized way to invoke an action when
the mouse pointer hits a screen-edge. It includes former
"edge-flip" and "infinite-desktop" (now renamed to
"viewport-drag"), and a new feature "hot-spot".
Edge-flip and viewport-drag can be configured from the
configurator "Edge Actions" group. Options are easy to
understand.
"Hot-spot" lets you assign an action to each screen-edge and
-corner. An action has to be a lisp function, and can be set
in `~/.sawfish/rc', like this:
(defvar-setq top-left-corner-function
(lambda () (display-message "hello world")))
Hot-spot variable names consist of position (e.g. top-left or
bottom) + "edge"/"corner" + "function".
Other related changes are:
* Viewport-drag and edge-flip (of course hot-spot, too)
can be chosen per direction, top-bottom and left-right.
It's also possible to enable / disable dragging of a
window for each of them.
* It means a window can be dragged during viewport-drag,
which was not possible.
* There're two delay timers now, for edge-flip and
hot-spot.
Internal changes:
* Codes are found in `sawfish.wm.edge.*'. You don't have
to import them for ordinary use.
* Low-level functions now have API in
`sawfish.wm.edge.util' written in Lisp.
- Replace running window manager with Sawfish [Timo Korvola]
New command line option `--replace' is added. With it, Sawfish
will replace the currently running window manager. It's done
by "manager selection" defined in ICCCM secs 2.8 and 4.3.
- Toggle-Or-Exec wrapper added to Jump-Or-Exec [Christopher
Bratusek]
`toggle-or-exec' is similar to jump-or-exec, but turns windows
into quake-like drop-down/pop-up-windows. That means, when
you have the toggle-window focused and press its keybinding
again, it will be hidden.
See the file `jump-or-exec.jl' for more detailed examples.
- `iconify-on-leave' window-matcher [Christopher Bratusek]
This new window-matcher is a companion to `toggle-or-exec'.
When a window matched loses the focus, it gets hidden. Use
this together with `toggle-or-exec' for greater toggle-window
experience.
- Error printing during initialization [Teika Kazura]
When an error occurs during initialization, and if you don't
customize the option `error-handler', then the error is
reported to both the screen and standard-error. After Sawfish
starts, it's printed to the standard-error only.
- New function `report-commands' [Teika kazura]
It returns the list of all commands. (*note Operations on
Commands::).
* Misc Changes
- Tabs and themes [fuchur]
A new, tab-capable, highly configurable theme "StyleTab" is
added. It allows the tab-bar to appear in top, left, right,
and bottom. Use a new window rule `title-position' for it.
"StyleTab" is now the default theme.
Many improvements in tab system are done. For example,
stickiness change on a window applies to all other windows in
the same tab group, though maybe not yet complete. (Please
tell us things you noticed.)
When you used a tab capable theme (Elberg-Tabbed or
Get-S-Tabbed), you had to manually adjust positions by pixel,
but it's not necessary any more.
When a lot of windows are open, they should now be more
responsive.
- Application menu is fully customizable [Matthew Love]
With the new option `apps-menu-filter', you can fully
customize the application menu. For the full description, see
*Note Applications Menu::.
It replaces former options like `apps-menu-show-all' or
`apps-menu-ignore-no-display'.
- Per-window animation mode [Teika kazura]
From the configurator "Window Rules" you can set the animation
mode when iconified. (*note Animating Windows::)
- Behavior modification at focus-in [Harald van Dijk]
In order to support "gnome2-globalmenu", the reaction policy
to `XFocusInEvent' is slightly modified. Sawfish doesn't emit
`_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW' if it's done by (un)grabbing the pointer.
- Revised `get-window-by-*' functions [Christopher Bratusek]
For the details, see *Note Window Attributes::, and *Note
Getting Windows::.
* Added functions `window-role' and `get-window-by-role'
(return NET_WM_ROLE)
* Deleted `get-window-by-name-re' and
`get-window-by-class-re'. Use instead
`get-window-by-name' or `get-window-by-class' with the
new boolean option `#:regex'. (The old name is still
supported.)
* added `#:icon' switch to `get-window-by-name' to get a
window via NET_WM_ICON_NAME (can be used with #:regex
switch, too)
* Commands to resize a window [Christopher Bratusek, Teika
kazura]
Four new commands to resize a window where you can
specify the size by pixels are there. You're either
prompted to type in the new size, or you can preset it
in the configurator.
For the new command `resize-window-to-preset-size',
first you specify a size in the configurator. The
focused window will be resized to that preset size on
invocation. There're also commands to change only one of
the height and width.
`resize-window-prompt' prompts you to enter the new size.
- Window-operation menu improvements [Christopher Bratusek]
+ The window-operation menu now honours window rules
better. For example, if you have a window with
`fixed-size' flag, the window-operations menu-entry
`Resize' becomes unclickable.
+ The entries for moving and copying windows to another
workspace are now bundled in the new `Workspace'
sub-menu.
- Translation related changes [Teika Kazura]
+ Added translator instructions in `po/README' file.
+ Before you run `po/make-pot' to generate `sawfish.pot',
you now have to do `make all' at the top directory.
Previously it was possible to produce wrong
`sawfish.pot'.
+ Translation updates: Spanish [gnome-es team], German
[gnome-de team], Simplified-Chinese [gnome-zh_CN team,
Wang Lei], Norwegian/bokmål [gnome-no team] French
[gnome-fr team], Czech [gnome-cs team] and Slovenian
[gnome-sl team].
+ Updated `sawfish.pot' and subsequently all `*.po'.
Banished some bogus items in `sawfish.pot'.
(Developer's personal extensions had sneaked in.)
- Emacs sawfish-mode now indents `let-fluids' and let-loop
correctly, provided by `sawfish.el' [Teika Kazura]
- Turn `focus-ignore-pointer-events' into an internal variable
(has wrongly been a user-option before) [Teika Kazura]
- Documentations [Teika kazura]
* Section on popup menus is rewritten. (*note Popup
Menus::)
* Functions which return window geometry are now clarified
in the point of frames.
* Correction: The function `commandp' can only take
symbols as its argument. (*note Operations on Commands::)
- SawfishConfig "Window rules" section changes [Teika Kazura]
Category `Placement' is renamed to `Geometry'. The item
`shade-hover' is moved to `appearance' category, and
`fixed-size' to `geometry'.
- Deletion of outdated features in command definition [Teika
Kazura]
Function `define-command-args' is deleted. In `define-command'
function, the keyword argument `doc-key' is dropped.

What's new since 1.7.0?
===============
1.8.0 "Unity Without Words"
=================
* Notes
- Renamed function `popup-window-menu' to
`popup-window-ops-menu' [Teika kazura]
Both the function and the command are renamed. The old name
is still supported, but it's recommended to update your
configuration.
- User option `focus-ignore-pointer-events' is deleted. [Teika
kazura]
In fact, it's for internal use, and should not have been a
user option. Use your favorite focus mode instead.
* Build and Installation
- Fixed installation for non-root users [Stefano Sabatini]
Previously when installing to a private directory as an
ordinary user, the installation failed, because some files
were forced to be installed in /usr. This is fixed now.
- Chooseable session files [Christopher Bratusek]
Now you can choose what session files to install. This is
done by a tripplet of configure-options:
* -with/out-kde4session: enable or disable the
installation of session files for KDE4. Default: enabled
* -with/out-gnome2session: enable or disable the
installation of session files for GNOME2.
Default: enabled
* -with/out-xdmsession: enable or disable the installation
of session files for XDM (or other display-managers like
KDM/GDM). Default: enabled
- Spec-File compatibility for RHEL 6 beta [Kim B. Heino]
- Debian-Scripts compatibility for Debian/Experimental
[Christopher Bratusek]
* Bug fixes
- Poweroff-menu fix [Teika Kazura, Christopher Bratusek]
In Sawfish-1.7.0, poweroff related items in the popup menu
couldn't be invoked, if run without any desktop environment.
Fixed it.
- Correctly build SawfishPager [Christopher Bratusek]
It is ensured that SawfishPager builds correctly, by
improving `sawfish.pc' file.
- KDE *.desktop files location [Teika Kazura]
Previously, user's change of the variable
`kde-desktop-directories' was ignored, but this is fixed.
- Window cycle among groups [Teika Kazura]
Some windows were skipped in window cycles among groups. This
is fixed.
- Cancellation of `call-command' [Teika kazura]
It used to print an error message when you cancel an
interactive call of `call-command' with the escape key, but
it doesn't any more.
* New Features
- EdgeActions [Christopher Bratusek, Teika Kazura]
EdgeActions is a centralized way for performing actions with
your screen-edges. Lots of internal and user-visiable changes
have been made.
Internal changes:
* Some functions have been moved from Lisp to C-Part. Also
EdgeFlip has been highly revised, so that other technics
(namely ViewportDrag and HotSpots) do no longer depend
on active EdgeFlip (no more conflicts)
* The module `sawfish.wm.edge.actions' contains the
EdgeAction infrastructure and most options
* The module `sawfish.wm.edge.util' contains helper
functions for EdgeActions
* The module `sawfish.wm.edge.subrs' contains the C-Part
subroutines for EdgeActions
* InfiniteDesktop is renamed to ViewportDrag (more
self-descriptive)
* General code-revision. Less but more powerful code is
now in use
User-visible changes:
* Centralized customization ("Edge Actions" group in
SawfishConfig)
* EdgeFlip changes. Additionally to the above stated
internal changes, EdgeFlip has been split into
EdgeFlip/Viewport and EdgeFlip/Workspace, giving you
more customizability.
* HotSpots have been added. HotSpots let you call
functions when hitting either the corners or the edges.
By default the corners extend by 50 px in both
directions along the edge, this value is changable.
HotSpot functions need to be set via `~/.sawfishrc',
like this:
( defvar-setq top-left-corner-function ( lambda () (
display-message "hello world" ) ) )
the lambda is very important - it won't work else.
Function names are pretty self-descriptive: position
(eg: top-left or bottom) + variant (edge or corner) +
"function".
* ViewportDrag now also works while moving a window.
* Delay-timer changes. ViewportDrag doesn't have a delay
anymore (doesn't quite make sense). HotSpots
and EdgeFlip have both their own, customizable timer.
* Actions are now split as follows:
top-bottom (normal) top-bottom (while moving)
left-right (normal) left-right (while moving)
That means that you have better control what to do and
when, as actions for when hitting the edge/corner with
the pointer ("normal") and for when hitting the
edge/corner while moving a window are split now.
You can choose from the following actions:
→ flip-viewport (traditional EdgeFlip for Viewports)
→ flip-workspace (traditional EdgeFlip for Workspaces)
→ viewport-drag (drag Viewport to pseudo-increase
it's size making it "infinite")
→ none/hot-spots (either perform nothing or -if
user-set- a HotSpot function)
By default nothing is done.
- New function `report-commands' [Teika kazura]
It returns the list of all commands. (*note Operations on
Commands::).
* Misc Changes
- Tabs-NG [fuchur]
Tabs-NG is a revised version of Sawfish's
Tabbed-Windowing-System. Most changes are internal, but a few
user-visible ones have been done, too. When a lot of windows
are open, it should now be more responsive.
You now no longer need to change the tab-adjustments via
SawfishConfig, when changing or customizing tab-enabled themes
(this is now done internally).
Also there are now vertical and horizontal tabbar-prototypes
available (see `DarkTab' theme), with a keymap both. The
window-matcher `title-position' ensures that the position of
the title will be restored, when using the `DarkTab' theme.
Several smaller fixes have been done. (check `ChangeLog' for
more detailed infos)
- The themes `Elberg-Tabbed' and `Get-S-Tabbed' have been
updated to work with Tabs-NG. The theme `DarkTab' made by
fuchur" is now the default theme.
- revised `get-window-by-*' functions [Christopher Bratusek]
* added `window-role' function (return NET_WM_ROLE)
* added `get-window-by-role' function (takes #:regex
switch)
* merged `get-window-by-name-re' as #:regex switch into
`get-window-by-name' (the old name is still supported)
* merged `get-window-by-class-re' as #:regex switch into
`get-window-by-class' (the old name is still supported)
* added #:icon switch to `get-window-by-name' to get a
window via NET_WM_ICON_NAME (can be used with #:regex
switch, too)
- Window-operation menu improvements [Christopher Bratusek]
+ The window-operation menu now honours window rules
better. For example, if you have a window with
`fixed-size' flag, the window-operations menu-entry
`Resize' becomes unclickable.
+ The entries for moving and copying windows to another
workspace are now bundled in the new `Workspace'
sub-menu.
- `rename-window' function behavior-change [Christopher
Bratusek] The function `rename-window' does now also change
the _NET_WM_VISIBLE_NAME property of a window.
- Translation related changes [Teika Kazura]
+ Added translator instructions in `po/README' file.
+ Before you run `po/make-pot' to generate `sawfish.pot',
you now have to do `make all' at the top directory.
Previously it was possible to produce wrong
`sawfish.pot'.
+ The Spanish translation has been updated [gnome-es
translation-team]
+ The German translation has been updated [gnome-de
translation-team]
+ The Simplified-Chinese translation has been updated
[gnome-zh_tw team]
+ The Norwegian/bokmål translation has been
updated [gnome-no team]
+ Updated `sawfish.pot' and subsequently all `*.po'.
Banished some bogus items in `sawfish.pot'.
(Developer's personal extensions had sneaked in.)
- Emacs sawfish-mode now indents `let-fluids' and let-loop
correctly [Teika Kazura]
- Turn `focus-ignore-pointer-events' into an internal variable
(has wrongly been a user-option before) [Teika Kazura]
- Documentations [Teika kazura]
* Section on popup menus is rewritten. (*note Popup
Menus::)
* Correction: The function `commandp' can only take
symbols as its argument. (*note Operations on Commands::)
- SawfishConfig "Window rules" section changes [Teika Kazura]
Category `Placement' is renamed to `Geometry'. The item
`shade-hover' is moved to `appearance' category, and
`fixed-size' to `geometry'.
- Deletion of outdated features in command definition [Teika
Kazura]
Function `define-command-args' is deleted. In `define-command'
function, the keyword argument `doc-key' is dropped.

1.7.0 "Frozen Flame"
====================
* Update dependencies
- librep 0.90.5 -> 0.91.0
- rep-gtk 0.90.2 -> 0.90.4
* Notes
- When you report a crash, please add the backtrace, by
invoking Sawfish with the command line option "--interp".
Read the file `CONTRIBUTING' for more infos.
- Prompt API change [Jeremy Hankins]
If you have code which utilizes prompt, it is affected. When
you call the function `prompt', directly pass helper functions
as function arguments. They used to be set as global
variables.
This change is straightforward, so it's not difficult to
update your code. See `sawfish.wm.util.prompt' for details.
- Mouse-button support state
Sawfish claimed to support mouse-buttons 1 - 9, but it is
known that drag of buttons 6 - 8 may not work. The button 9
doesn't work at all, so we withdraw it.
- Functions `maybe-raise-window' and `maybe-lower-window' are
now obsolete. [Teika Kazura]
Replace them with `raise-window*' and `lower-window*' defined
in `sawfish.wm.util.stacking'. Only difference is that the
obsolete version supports a feature of Nautilus (GNOME file
manager) which was dropped long ago.
* Build and Installation
- Configure-option `--with-nine-mousebuttons' is dropped.
See the item "Keyboard layout switching support" below.
* Bug Fixes
- Maximized windows wrongly covering other windows on startup
[Jeremy Hankins]
Sometimes maximized windows would overlap "avoided" windows
(e.g., the gnome-panel, or a trayer) on startup. Sawfish now
defers maximization until the initialization is complete,
preventing this problem.
- Viewport initialization bugfix [Jeremy Hankins]
Under certain circumstances viewport slots were wrongly
shifted when Sawfish was restarted, ending up with some
windows outside of the virtual desktop. This has been fixed.
- Keyboard-layout switching support [Teika Kazura]
Previously, when you switched the keyboard-layout, or more
correctly the keyboard-"group" (which is mainly for
multilinguals) keyboard- and mouse-bindings got messed-up.
Now, this can be prevented by invoking Sawfish with the new
commandline-option `--5-buttons'. It is assumed that modifiers
are common among keyboard groups.
More precisely, what's supported is switching by
`ISO_Next_Group' or similar, bound to a key (for example ctrl
+ alt). It appears as "option" in X keyboard configuration,
like "grp:ctrl_alt_toggle". If you use some utility to
switch the layout and it confuses Sawfish keybindings, please
restart Sawfish.
With that commandline-option, you won't be able to bind
Sawfish commands to mouse buttons 6 - 8. This may be fixed in
future.
- Atom handling fix on 32-bit architecture (Java fix). [Teika
Kazura]
Function `x-atom-name' now accepts all 32 bits. Previously
only 30 bits were treated if the architecture was 32-bit.
64-bit systems hadn't had this bug.
It used to cause "Bad argument" error, most notably on Java
applications. (In theory, an atom is set by X server, not a
client. But Java applications seem to be affected often by
this bug.)
- Applications menu bugfix [Matthew Love]
Correct alphabetic ordering of menu-entries is done.
Previously they were sorted [A-Z][a-z] (first all upper- then
all loser-case entries).
Also the function for detecting the language has been
improved. It now better follows the freedesktop.org
specification.
- Edge-flip and infinite-desktop now work after
screen-resolution change. [Christopher Bratusek]
- Sawfish now starts up correctly when receiving a session-id or
session-prefix from GNOME-Session [Clinton Ebadi, Christopher
Bratusek]
- Draft animator bugfix. [Christopher Bratusek]
The "draft" animator had two issues: on one hand the drawn
numbers were always black (therefore possibly invisible), on
the other hand those numbers weren't erased from the screen.
Both have been fixed. Internally, it's done by the new
`x-draw-text' function described below.
- Resurrection of two variables [Teika Kazura]
User options `workspace-boundary-mode' and
`workspace-send-boundary-mode' couldn't be set from the
configurator, but this is fixed.
- Command `xterm' fix [Teika kazura]
It couldn't be invoked as a key binging if the optional
"command" argument was unset by the configurator, i.e. an
empty string.
* New Features
- Desktop-environment integration [Christopher Bratusek]
Support for XFCE integration was added. It's just like
GNOME/KDE4 integration: it sets `xterm-program' and
`browser-program' (unless already set by user), and adds XFCE
logout/help/customization menu-entries to the Sawfish
root-menu.
Improvements: All menu-entries for GNOME/KDE4 do now have
accelerators. Entries for invoking `gnome-control-center' or
KDE `systemsettings' have been added. The KDE4 detection has
been improved. See also the item "Applications menu
improvements" below.
A new variable `desktop-environment' tells which desktop
environment is running (*note External Applications::).
- Applications menu improvements [Matthew Love]
Applications menu now looks more like that of GNOME / KDE /
XFCE if one is running. (further improvements are planned)
The user option `apps-menu-ignore-no-display' is now gone and
replaced by `apps-menu-show-all'.
If `apps-menu-show-all' is `nil' (default), the menu looks
much like that of GNOME / KDE / Xfce, by hiding some
applications. If it's `t', then all installed applications are
shown. An intermediate option, the symbol `maybe' is
possible, as described below.
Technically, fields `NotShowIn' and `OnlyShowIn' in files
`/usr/share/applications/*.desktop' tell under which desktop
environment that application wants to be shown. If
`apps-menu-show-all' is `nil' or `maybe', they are respected.
Items with field `Hidden' or `NoDisplay' are usually not to
be shown. They are respected if `apps-menu-show-all' is `nil'.
The KDE specific directory is now searched, too while menu
generation.
- New window rules [Christopher Bratusek]
* `fixed-size': this disables resizing, or more precisely,
functions `resize-window-interactively',
`halve-window-size' and `double-window-size'.
(Maximization is still possible. Use `never-maximize'
to prevent maximization.)
* `never-close': this disables closing. Only interactive
closing is prevented, and you can delete windows with
`never-close' property from a lisp program.
- Update of emacs major mode `sawfish.el' [Teika kazura]
It is now distributed with Sawfish window manager.
Improvements are:
* Evaluation used to choke when it encountered `#f' or
`#t'. This is fixed.
* Highlighting of the keywords like `define' works again.
* `describe-function' have been broken, but it works again.
* In `describe-variable', the value of the variable is
pretty-printed.
* `sawfish-load-symbols' can be called interactively to
update the cached symbols.
* Better introductory part.
- New frame-parts `border-width' and `border-color' [Alexey I.
Froloff]
A "border" of a window surrounds the window and all other
frame parts. (*note Frame Part Definition::)
- New commandline-option `--5-buttons'
See the item "Keyboard-layout switching support" above.
- `x-draw-text' function [Christopher Bratusek]
It is similar to `x-draw-string'. Generally, if you use a
`display-message' like message, call `x-draw-string'. If you
want to draw on the screen directly use `x-draw-text' (*note
X Drawing::.)
* Translation updates
Updated translations since 1.6.0 are Danish (da), British English
(en_GB), German (de), Spanish (es), Slovenian (sl), and Swedish
(sv).
All translation files are now in UTF-8. Changed languages are
Galician (gl), Italian (it), Romanian (ro), and Turkish (tr). The
rest were already UTF-8. [Teika Kazura]
* Miscellaneous Changes
- More error and backtrace printing [Teika Kazura]
Due to librep >= 0.91.0, the backtrace is printed by default
when an error was signaled. It is printed for sawfish-client,
too, but it's sent to Sawfish's standard error, not to
sawfish-client's, sorry.
Phrase "Sawfish error:" is prepended to error messages which
are printed to standard error.
Sawfish-pager's errors are printed to Sawfish's output. More
precisely, when you connected to Sawfish as a server
asynchronously, then the error was not printed. But now it is
printed, to Sawfish's output. (In contrast, a client which
connects synchronously receives the error message itself.)
- Pointer warping in window cycling [Teika Kazura]
In window cycling, some unnecessary pointer warping is
avoided. Previously, the necessity of a warp was judged by
the geometry before the raise was done. Now the updated one
is used.
- Configurator changes (user visible parts) [Christopher
Bratusek]
Icon is now provided. (If it doesn't show up, first run
`gtk-update-icon-cache'.)
If you run the configurator but the Sawfish window manager is
not running, then an alert window is displayed before
abortion. [Teika Kazura, Christopher Bratusek]
Two obsolete features are deleted. One is the command line
option `--socket-id', which was for "capplets", part of very
early GNOME 2.x. The other is the command line option
`--single-level' which has been broken.
- Doc improvements
FAQ items, on how to hide the mouse-pointer, and on
application execution.
Manuals (1) describe all options. KEYBINDINGS file was revised
Newly described functions are: `grab-keymap' and
`ungrab-keymap' (*note Keymaps::), `x-raise-window' and
`x-lower-window' (*note Raising and Lowering Windows::),
`frame-state-mutex' (*note Frame Functions::).
- Root-Menu improvements [Christopher Bratusek]
All menu-entries do now have accelerators. Labels for help
entries have been improved.
- Configurator internals [Christopher Bratusek]
The module `widget-test' is deleted. It provided testing
function of widgets in modules `sawfish.gtk.*'. But allegedly
it is broken and crashed Sawfish.
`widget-dialog.jl' was merged into `simple-dialog.jl'
Previously the functions `remove-newlines' and
`beautify-symbol-name' were defined in several modules, with
the same contents. Now they are defined (only once) in a new
module `sawfish.cfg.utils'.
The `stock-button' function was defined in Sawfish, but now
it's replaced by directly using `gtk-button-new-from-stock'.
Same for the `about-dialog' function, replaced (in version
1.6.0) by `gtk-about-dialog'.
`/usr/bin/sawfish-config' is now minimal, moving most of it's
content to `sawfish.cfg.shell' [Teika Kazura]
- Module `3d-hack' is deleted. [Christopher Bratusek]
The `3d-hack' module was an animation demo, not a feature. It
provided two functions similar to `glxgears', rendered in 2d.
If you want it, it can be downloaded from the Sawfish Wiki,
from the page "3d-hack".

What's new?
0.91.0
======
* Update note [important]:
You need to rebuild rep-gtk and sawfish against this version of
librep, because of an ABI-change.
Your lisp files have to be byte-compiled again, too.
* Halfway improved `debug-on-error' and `backtrace-on-error' [Teika
Kazura]
Previously, setting these values to `t' triggered the debugger /
backtracer even if the error was signalled inside of
`condition-case'. This behavior can still be obtained by setting
them to the symbol `always'.
Now, if they're `t', the debugger / backtracer is invoked only if
the control is not inside of any `condition-case'. Notice that the
condition is NOT if the error is actually handled by an error
handler. It is not the best, but we can't improve it.
The default value of `backtrace-on-error' is now `t'.
* When you evaluate a closure interactively, the module it belongs
to is printed, too. [Teika kazura]
* Improved functions' docstring support [Teika Kazura]
Handling of functions' docstring is improved. The revised
`documenation' function is ensured to return the docstring of
functions, macros, and special forms (*note Docstrings::).
Previously, fuctions' docstrings of byte-compiled user-files (eg:
pager.jlc) were lost, but not now.
* New function `subr-structure' [Teika Kazura]
It returns the module a subr belongs to.
* Major documentation revision [Teika kazura]
Reorganized documentation files. Many capital letter name files
were updated or merged into the info.
New entries: *Note Crash course for Elisp users::, *Note
Closures::, on leading tilde in a filename and tarball access
(*note File Handlers::), fully revised the module section (*note
Modules::), improved description on invocation (*note
Invocation::), improved "fluid" and `let' descriptions (*note
Fluid Variables::, and *note Local Variables::), improved the read
syntax of character (*note Characters::). Module names are
supplied for all functions.
Supplied documentation to some functions: Input stream functions
`peek-char', `read-char' (*note Input Functions::), list functions
`remove-if', `remove-if-not' (*note Mapping Functions::),
`table-size' (*note Hash Tables::), `setcar', `setcdr' and `cdddr'
family (*note Cons Cells::), `assoc-regexp' (*note Association
Lists::).
* `define-special-variable' is replaced by `defvar-setq' [Teika
kazura]
The former is still valid, but it's a very confusing name,
therefore the latter is introduced.
* Makefile's uninstall rule has been fixed [Christopher Bratusek]

Hi folks,
sawfish 1.6.3 "Hava Nagila" is now officially available!
Compilation fix[]
Compilation error fix: Not always, but compilation of Sawfish-1.6.3 fails. To fix it, apply this patch:

What's New?[]
1.6.3 "Hava Nagila"
===================
* Bugfixes
- In tabbed-windows the left/right end is no longer outside the
window, if that is too small [Fuchur]
- Unsupported option `ignore-window-input-hint' is deleted
which has been invalid for long. [Teika kazura]
- Honor the user option `maximize-raises' in
`maximize-window-fullscreen' and
`maximize-window-fullxinerama', too, not just in
maximize-window [Nolan Leake]
- More robustness in applications menu [Teika Kazura, Matthew
Love]
Before it broke for 'R' (statistics software), and whitespace
handling didn't follow the specification.
Some *.desktop files are not ignored any more either, i.e.,
leading empty lines and comments are allowed.
- Allow compilation with -DDEBUG flag passed [Alexey I. Froloff]
* New Features
- XRandR events (eg resolution changes) call the new hook
`randr-changed-notify-hook' [Daniel M. German]
See *Note RandR and Xinerama::.
- Tabbed windowing system improvements [Fuchur]
+ Support for transient tab-frames
+ New frame classes:
x tab-s (side tab)
x tab-ls (side tab, left/bottom end)
x tab-rs (side tab, right/top end)
+ Tabgroups now support a set of new properties and
actions: `type', `set-frame-style', `fixed-position',
`iconify'. In addition, new tabs gain those properties
from their parent window.
- New command `display-window-position' [Teika kazura]
User chooses a window by cursor and click, and it prints its
position and size in a popup. Also available as a function,
defined in `sawfish.wm.util.display-wininfo'.
- New function `window-pid' [Teika kazura]
It returns the process ID of a window. (*note Window
Attributes::
- Window instance name is now accessible [Teika kazura]
Technically, the window class consists of "instance" and
"class", but only the latter was returned previously by the
function `window-class'. Now with the new optional argument,
the instance is returned too. (*note Window Attributes::)
- Customizable lisp directory [Teika kazura]
User can add lisp directories to be read with the
environmental variable `SAWFISH_USER_LISP_DIR'. Its value is
directories separated by colon, like `PATH', and prepended to
`load-path'. If not set, `~/.sawfish/lisp' is assumed. For
example, if you define a module `sawfish.wm.super-hack', then
it can be read from
`~/.sawfish/lisp/sawfish/wm/super-hack.jl'.
User can override system lisp files, too. For example, if
there is `~/.sawfish/lisp/sawfish/wm/windows.jl', then it
defines `sawfish.wm.windows', instead of the installed one.
(But this can easily break your Sawfish startup.) In fact, it
was possible for some lisp files, but now it's guaranteed for
all files.
* Other Changes
- Info improvements [Teika kazura]
+ "Windows" chapter is partly revised. Function
`display-window' is documented. Difference between
`window-wants-input-p' and `window-really-wants-input-p'
is described. Short description on the root window.
+ In past few versions we made more changes which were not
described in the news, including clarification in
viewport, workspace and event, and window matching lisp
functions.
+ Added a faq item on multi-head and workspace.
+ Edition number and the date of last change are dropped
from the info. We now edit the info often, so they are
not so much meaningful.
- Pressing the lock-button does the state-change of the window
accordingly. [Fuchur]
No theme shipped with Sawfish does have the lock-button yet,
though.
- Make xinerama an optional dependency [original patch from
Gentoo]
Have Fun!

2010 02 16: sawfish 1.6.2 released
Hi dear fellows,
Sawfish 1.6.2 is now officially available!
Downloads
=========
* from this release on we provide Tar/BZ2 and Tar/XZ tarballs
* Tar/XZ is ~30% smaller but not all distros shipp the decompression utils
* Moreover all downloads moved from SF to Tuxfamily, caused by the idiotic US laws
* caused SF to deny access from several "evil" countries. Tuxfamily is a french
* service -> therefore we are "save" here.

What's New?
===========
1.6.2 "Mighty Disco King"
=========================
* The 1.6.2 release has some improvements.
* Bugfixes
- Application menu is more robust now. [Matthew Love,
Christopher Bratusek]
Application menu, introduced in 1.6.0, made Sawfish crash if
`*.desktop' file had a malformed key value (say ; as first
character or # somewhere inside), or it was unreadable. It is
fixed.
- Minor fix of window placement by direction [Teika kazura]
When the window placement mode is for example `east' and the
window is wider than the screen, then the window was put
wrongly. It is fixed.
* New features
- New command `maximize-discard' [Teika kazura]
The command `maximize-discard' stops a maximized window to be
treated as maximized any more, so that you can move and
resize the window.
The functinon `maximize-discard' has existed, and now it's
exported.
- New command `jump-or-exec' [Christopher Bratusek]
The user uploaded module "jump-or-exec" has been merged. It
provides `jump-or-exec', a command which may be used to focus
a window, or if it does not exist, start the application.
Unlike the original version this one also supports matching a
window by its class (returned by `window-class' function),
which makes it more flexible for applications like music
player or browsers, which tend to change their WM_NAME
relatively often.
For usage, see `lisp/sawfish/wm/commands/jump-or-exec.jl'
file.
* Misc
- Improved ebuild and specfile [Christopher Bratusek] [Kim B.
Heino]
- Updated documentation [Christopher Bratusek] [Teika Kazura]
- Removed `frame-style-editable-p' and all other remaining
sawfish-themer fragments, as it's dead. [Christopher Bratusek]

2010 02 08: Downloads moved to Tuxfamily
Hi folks,
just wanted to point out that the tarballs have made their way from SF to Tuxfamily.
The two major reasons:
- The ugly and slow SF interface
- The US-Law forcing SF to exclude several countries
- (Yes, I've already read the current solution, but that is even dumper (now the project-maintainers have to know the US-Laws))
- Tuxfamily is in France, so we're safe here :)
librep: http://download.tuxfamily.org/sawfish/librep/ rep-gtk: http://download.tuxfamily.org/sawfish/rep-gtk/ sawfish: http://download.tuxfamily.org/sawfish/sawfish/
Actually the SF projects are still up and running, but I'll remove them in 1 - 2 weeks (when I got nothing else to do).
Happy Hacking, Flashrider [Christopher Bratusek] 15:54, February 8, 2010 (UTC)

2010 01 17: sawfish-pager now on Tuxfamily
The Sawfish-Pager switched from SourceForge to Tuxfamily.
The major reason for the change was that I wanted to add a GIT Repo for sawfish-pager and the release-tarballs should have been hosted on the same server. Of course I could also have used SourceForge, but I dislike their webinterface (and I'm not the only one). So I decided to put it on Tuxfamily, as I'm already familar with it.
So you can now find all release-tarballs from 0.1 'till 0.7.2 here:
In addition, you can now (finally) access Sawfish-Pager GIT via:
In fact the SourceForge project does still exist, but I'm going to remove it the next days and entirely rely on Tuxfamily for Sawfish-Pager.

2010 01 08: sawfish-pager 0.7.2 released
Hi all,
a new version of sawfish-pager is available in stores now.
Where to get it?
================
https://sourceforge.net/projects/sawfish-pager/files/pager/0.7.2/
What's new?
===========
Version 0.7.2 (2010-01-08, Teqnology)
* sawfish-pager now depends on Sawfish 1.6.1 as we do now include
the sawfish-client header directly
* sawfish-pager now depends on librep 0.90.5 as it fixes the issue
that users don't see strings from pager.jlc in sawfish-config,
while they do from pager.jl
* majorly revised Makefile
* the following defines are no longer valid:
+ USE_SAWFISH_LIBCLIENT
+ HAVE_GTK2
they are hardcoded to be default from now on.
the frameover feature is still optional and can be enabled by
passing -DFRAMEOVER
to `make'.
* sawfish.pc is now beeing used to detect which imageloader
(gdk-pixbuf-xlib or imlib1) to use (-DHAVE_GDK_PIXBUF is set
accordingly)
* Fixed a bug where the pager doesn't display windows in the
proper viewport [Jeremy Hankins]

2010 01 08: sawfish 1.6.1 released
Hi all,
Scared about unconfigurable, feature-ressistant window-managers? Have no fear, WindowManager Hero X is here and with him the Sawfish-Crew (Kupo)!
And they present you:
Sawfish 1.6.1 "Astral"
Where to get it?
================
https://sourceforge.net/projects/sawmill/files/sawfish/1.6.1/
What's new?
===========
1.6.1 "Astral"
==============
* The 1.6.1 release brings several bugfixes and improvements
* Build and Installation
- New/Updated requirements:
+ librep 0.90.4 -> 0.90.5
+ rep-gtk 0.90.0 -> 0.90.2
- The configure option `--without-nine-mouse-buttons' is not
allowed to have 4 hyphens, therefore it's renamed to
`--without-nine-mousebuttons'. [Christopher Bratusek]
- Reworked configures help-message for better readability.
[Kim B. Heino]
- Configure now uses `kde4-config --install data' rather than
`kde4-config --path data', so no sed-kludge is needed anymore.
Make $datadir/kde4/apps/ the fallback path, if KDE4 is not
installed. [Kim B. Heino]
- Majorly improved debian and rpm packaging scripts.
[Christopher Bratusek] [Kim B. Heino]
- The spec has been reworked to detect kde4/librep directories
while runtime, instead of hardcoding those paths from
configure, which makes it more portable. [Kim B. Heino]
- Our own implementation of dlmalloc is disabled since 2002, as
it breaks sawfish on several architectures. From this version
on, we don't ship it anymore. [Kim B. Heino]
- Export the imageloader beeing used by sawfish in the .pc file.
[Christopher Bratusek]
- Don't remove the .pot file upon `make distclean'.
[Christopher Bratusek]
- Install Sawfishs header files to $includedir/sawfish/.
[Christopher Bratusek]
- Autotools improvements (Makefile, autogen.sh & Co.)
[Christopher Bratusek]
* Bugfixes
- Fixed a bug where the gnome-panels pager gets confused about
the current viewport when displaying all workspaces. [Jeremy
Hankins]
- Fixed minor bugs in viewport.jl. [Jeremy Hankins]
* Doc
- Fixed a small doc misstake (refered to window-set instead of
window-put). [Christopher Bratusek]
- Fixed the docstrings of shrink and yank. [Timo Korvola]
* Misc
- Last 3 instances of "sawmill" replaced by "sawfish". [Kim B.
Heino]

* Byte compiler bugfix in docstring loss [Teika Kazura]
Practical effect: Previously, if a user byte-compile files, then
the docstring is lost in sawfish-config. This is fixed.
Details: Loss of docstring happened only if (1) byte compiler is
not given `--write-docs', so only byte-compilation by user (2)
defvar is invoked within macro definition, including `defcustom' in
Sawfish. Plain defvar was not affected by this bug. It was
because in 'trans-defvar' in lisp/rep/vm/compiler/rep.jl, the
docstring is stored in a wrong property `variable-documentation'.
It is corrected to `documentation'.
Symbol `variable-documentation' is not used elsewhere, including
Sawfish and emacs' sawfish-mode.
* Our own implementation of dlmalloc is disabled since 2002, as it
breaks librep on several architectures. From this version on, we
don't ship it. [Kim B. Heino]
* Our own implementation of alloca/memcmp is not needed, rely on
libcs instead. [Kim B. Heino]
* Majorly improved the debian and rpm packaging scripts [Christopher

* Install headers to $includedir/rep/ instead of $includedir/

2009 12 22: sawfish 1.6.0 released
Hi folks!
In the name of the sawfish coreteam, I'm pleased to announce the immediate availabilty of:
Sawfish 1.6.0 "Sound Of Thunder"
Some cherrypicks:
- LibAudioFile and ESounD requirements have been dropped.
- Dynamic viewport mode (creates a new viewport when hitting the edge)
- Viewport: windows are restored on the correct Viewport after restart
- Bug fix: Prevent crashing of sawfish under heavy load and fast window destruction
- Bug fix: Prevent window deletion (at least that part sawfish is fault of, bugs in video drivers may still cause that)
- Thanks to librep 0.90.2+, non-English letters are printed correctly
- Trimmed down GNOME support to minimum and new KDE4 support.
- A set of new window-matchers
- Thanks to rep-gtk 0.90.0+ configurator doesn't use obsolete widgets any more.
- and of course a lot changes more. Read the news below.
Get your favourite windowmanager from: https://sourceforge.net/projects/sawmill/files/sawfish/1.6.0/

Big shouts to the whole Sawfish-Posse! Stay Tuned!
Happy Installing, a lots of christmas-presents and a happy new year, Chris
Last but not least the complete NEWS from 1.5.0 to 1.6.0:
1.6.0
=====
* The 1.6.0 release has new features and bugfixes
* Build and installation changes
- New/Updated requirements:
+ librep 0.90.0 -> 0.90.4
+ rep-gtk 0.18.4 -> 0.90.0
- Removed requirements: LibAudioFile and ESounD
- Mouse buttons 6 - 9 support is now optional
Support for 6 - 9 mouse buttons is now optional.
X.Org/XFree86 headers only define up to 5 buttons, and we use
a working but somewhat hackish workaround for getting buttons
6 - 9 which is suspected to cause some problems with
modifiers. Support for them is enabled by default. If you
want to disable it, add the following flag to configure:
`--without-nine-mousebuttons'
If you drop it, then you can't use mouse button 8 to, for
example, drag windows.
- Installation directory change
Directory `libexec' is not used anymore for library files
installation. Instead, they go into `lib' by default.
* Incompatible user visible changes:
- Configurator's binary, `sawfish-ui', is renamed to
`sawfish-config' [Christopher Bratusek]
Its window class is changed to `sawfish-configurator' /
`Sawfish-Configurator', too. The lisp module is renamed from
`sawfish.ui' to `sawfish.cfg'.
- Infinite Desktop boundary behavior and option
In `infinite-desktop', the option to specify the boundary
behavior has changed. If `viewport-boundary-mode' is
`dynamic', then you can go as far as you like. Otherwise, it
stops at the workspace boundary of which size is specified by
`viewport-dimensions'. Now the latter is the default. See also
"dynamic viewport" described below.
The previous variable,
`infinite-desktop.stop-at-workspace-borders', which is used
for this purpose, no longer exists.
- User config file changes
In Sawfish < 1.6, `sawfish.wm.defaults' is loaded by default,
only if the `~/.sawfishrc' lacks. Now, it is always read, so
you don't have to `require' it. It sets up GNOME or KDE
support if found running, and does load the error-handling
module.
Since Sawfish 1.5 `~/.sawmillrc' is no longer a valid
configuration- file. From this version on, Sawfish will
rename `~/.sawmillrc' to `~/.sawfishrc', if the former does
exist on your system, but the latter doesn't.
- In configurator, the "Matched Windows" group has been renamed
to "Window Rules"
- Sound support has changed. [Christopher Bratusek]
Sawfish used to rely on ESounD and LibAudioFile to play
sound, but we dropped that. If you want sound, set the
variable `play-sample-program' to the path of the program
capable of playing *.wav file. You can set the variable from
the Configurator, too. By default `paplay' is beeing used.
You can't set any arguments to pass from this variable. If
you want to give arguments or redirect output, write a wrapper
program. (*note FAQ::, "Sound support" section.)
- GNOME integration updates [Christopher Bratusek]
GNOME support is trimmed down. All we offer now is as follows:
If GNOME runs, in `session' submenu under Sawfish root menu,
logout and shutdown from GNOME are added. Don't remove `quit'
and `restart' from menu now. GNOME help is available in menu.
Unless set by user, gnome-terminal.wrapper and
gnome-www-browser are used for user options `xterm-program'
and `browser-program'.
Most of dropped GNOME integrationcode is ancient, mainly for
1.x and early 2.x. Files `lisp/sawfish/wm/commands/gnome.jl'
and `lisp/sawfish/wm/state/gnome.jl' are deleted.
GNOME-Detection has been updated for recent versions. [Alexey
I. Froloff]
- xterm and browser changes
Module `sawfish.wm.commands.xterm' is renamed to
`sawfish.wm.commands.launcher'. Option `xterm-args' is
dropped. If you use it, simply append its value to
`xterm-program'.
Customization-group is changed from `misc' to `External
Applications'.
The functinon `display-url' is renamed to `browser', now
defined in the module cited above. Variable
`display-url-command' is renamed to `browser-program'.
- Sawfish pager
If you've been using Sawfish-pager, then you have to
recompile it, due to library files location change.
- Deletion of `user-level' property
(This affects almost none.) There has been a defcustom
property `user-level'. It has been deprecated for years, and
it's now deleted.
* Bugs fixed:
- Prevents crashes for quick window destructions, especially
under high load
There have been crashes if a window is destroyed soon after
its creation. It happens in `add_window' function, and the
cause is guessed to be garbage collection following window
destruction before the object access.
Now most parts of `add_window' are protected from garbage
collection with `rep_PUSHGC' / `rep_POPGC'. It also prevents
`add_window_hook' from being called with uninitialised
argument. [Timo Korvola, Janek Kozicki]
- Random window disapperance prevention
There're reports of sudden, random window disapperance, under
Xinerama and some other drivers. It is partly prevented, but
not completely, as this may also be caused by other libraries
or buggy video drivers.
Now in error_handler() in src/display.c, when a window sends
request_code 12 (X_ConfigureWindow), don't auto-assume it to
be unmapped. [Janek Kozicki]
- Build and Installation:
+ Library check: Fix in `SMlib' and `libICE' check on
x11r7 [Christopher Bratusek]
+ `.desktop' files fixes: typos fixed and unneeded entries
removal [Christopher Bratusek]
+ In spec file, repexecdir definition is fixed
[Christopher Bratusek]
+ In `po/Makefile.in', a wrong call of make-pot is fixed
[Christopher Bratusek]
+ Always build the FAQ upon make [Christopher Bratusek]
+ Expand REP_ENVIRON in scripts/Makefile.in [Luis Rodrigo
Gallardo Cruz]
+ Add `--tag=CC' to libtool where necessary. It unbrakes
compilation on some arches [Gentoo Linux]
+ Use $prefix/lib instead of $prefix/libexecdir, to
satisfy the FHS [Christopher Bratusek]
- In configurator,
Strings are now fully translatable [Alexey I. Froloff]
SpinButton listens to manual value change. (It's now
connected to the correct signal.) [Christoper Bratusek]
Position parameters can be negative [Christopher Bratusek,
Teika Kazura]
- Fixed Focus issues with KDE4 Menu/Run-Dialog [Timo Korvola]
- Fix cursor-warping in conjuction with Infinite-Desktop
[Jeremy Hankins]
- Fixed group of the stagger options [Christopher Bratusek]
- Fixed a call of `select-workspace-from-first' [Michal Maruška]
- In `Simple' theme, windows are now resizable from the right
border [Christopher Bratusek]
- Missing exports are now supplied, for shrink-yank functions
and `send-to-workspace'. [Christopher Bratusek]
- Commands `maximize-window-fullscreen' and
`maximize-window-fullxinerame' work. [Teika kazura]
- Variable `this-command' is `nil' outside of command call.
- Customization option `uniconify-to-current-viewport' has been
undeprecated. [Teika kazura]
* New features:
- New application menu [Matthew Love, Timo Korvola]
Sawfish now generates application menu automatically, by
reading `/usr/share/applications/*.desktop' files. If you
manually set `apps-menu', then it won't be. If you like to
have both your own applications menu and auto the generated
one, then refer back to `user-apps-menu' rather than
`apps-menu'. In addition you can use the variable
`desktop-directory' to specify a different directory to look
for *.desktop files, or a set of directories, if desired.
Root, and Window-Operations menus are revamped, too.
[Christopher Bratusek]
- Added options to change the font color of window title,
independent of the theme in use [Matthew Love, Christopher
Bratusek, Timo Korvola]
Internally, a new function `remove-frame-part-value' which
allows to change/remove values from frame-parts is used.
[Timo Korvola]
- Sawfish does now support theme-tarballs compressed with XZ
(aka LZMA2) and LZMA [Christopher Bratusek]
- Xinerama support for Grow/Pack [Nolan Leake]
Make grow/pack Xinerama aware. The support still remains
basic. Shrink-yank hasn't been changed at this point.
- Window rules can be set by lisp
Window rules (former "matched windows") can easily be set from
configurator, but it can now be set by lisp, too, with
`add-window-matcher' function. For the details, *Note Window
Rules by Matching::. An example usage is like this:
(add-window-matcher '((WM_NAME . "^root$")
(WM_CLASS . "^XTerm/xterm$"))
'((ignore-program-position . t)
(maximize . vertical)))
In fact, this function has already existed, but now it can
now specify both windowname and -class, also the grammar has
changed. The old syntax is still allowed, but deprecated.
- Keymap translation [Scott Scriven]
Sawfish can "translate" keymaps for each window. Suppose you
have the following lines in your `~/.sawfish/rc':
(add-window-matcher
'((WM_NAME . "^Terminal$"))
'(keymap-trans . (("C-n" "C-S-t")
("C-w" "C-S-w"))))
Then, when you press `C-n', any windows with name "Terminal"
receive `C-S-t', and so on.
This is part of window rules, but it cannot be exposed in the
configurator yet.
- New window rules
+ Maximizations `fullscreen' and `full-xinerama' are
available now (*note Maximizing Without Borders::)
[Jeremy Hankins]
+ Window position can also be specified by the direction,
like north or east, instead of the coordinates. [Jeremy
Hankins]
+ New window rules `new-workspace' and `new-viewport',
which place a window on the first empty Workspace or
Viewport (if there's none, one will be generated), have
been introduced [Jeremy Hankins]
If `new-workspace' is chosen, then the window is put in
an empty workspace, or a new workspace is created if
none. A workspace with sticky windows only are
considered empty. `new-viewport' is the same but an
empty viewport is chosen. If none is, the workspace is
enlarged, and the window is put in a new viewport.
+ `window-name' can change the window's name. [Christopher
Bratusek]
- New commands [Christopher Bratusek]
5 new move-cursor commands, 4 diagonals and 1 to center.
(*note Pointer Functions::
Three window manipulation commands, `double-window-size',
`halve-window-size', and `move-window-center'. The former
two are based on the `resize-by-factor' metafunction.
`browser' invokes a browser instance.
- New functions `rename-window' changes the window name. [from
"mmc" fork, Christopher Bratusek]
In practice, it works, but technically speaking, the window
name is not supposed to be changed in ICCCM, by the
Window-Manager.
`viewport-windows' returns windows in a viewport. [Jeremy
Hankins]
`get-window-by-class' and `get-window-by-class-re'
[Christopher Bratusek]
- Dynamic Viewport-Boundary-Mode [Jeremy Hankins]
When you set `viewport-boundary-mode' to `dynamic', then the
workspace grows and shrinks dynamically so that it contains
all windows and the current viewport. For the details, *Note
Dynamic Viewport::.
- KDE4 integration module [Christopher Bratusek]
KDE4 is automatically detected. KDE help, and KDE logout,
shutdown, and reboot are provided in the menu. In KDE4 WM
Selector, Sawfish is added.
Unless set by user, konsole and konqueror are used for user
options `xterm-program' and `browser-program'.
- Poweroff from menu
Added poweroff commands in menu for non KDE/GNOME users.
There are reboot, halt, suspend and hibernate. The used shell
commands can be set from configurator, under "Misc" ->
"External Applications". If you don't want it, set
`want-poweroff-menu' to nil.
User needs the appropriate privilege. For a way to do so, see
*Note FAQ::, "Shutdown privilege" section.
Reboot and halt call `before-exit-hook' and do
`delete-window' to each window before actually rebooting or
halting, to ensure everything is fine on the next startup.
- New Frame Classes [Christopher Bratusek]
A "frame class" defines frame component and are used by
themers to add buttons or frames to their theme in charge.
There are no user visible changes.
+ `sticky-button', a button to toggle window `sticky' or
`viewport-sticky'
+ `lock-button', a button to toggle window position `fixed'
+ `rename-button', a button to rename the window-title and
window-icon properties (not ICCCM compliant)
+ `move-resize-button', a button to perform various move
and resize actions on a window
+ `raise-lower-button', a button to perform various
raising and lowering actions on a window
* Widget Transistion [Christopher Bratusek]
- Custom make-url-widget replaced by GtkLinkButton
- Custom about-dialog replaced by GtkAboutDialog
- GtkButton + GtkPreview + GtkColorSelection trio replaced by
single GtkColorButton
* Other Changes:
- Startup window placement improvement [Jeremy Hankins]
At Sawfish startup including restart, maximized windows and
position specified windows used to mess up viewport, appearing
in wrong viewports. It's fixed now.
- Renamed `after-add-window' to `maxmize-after-add-window'
This function is only used in a hook [Teika Kazura]
- Don't let `cycle-class' and `cycle-class-backwards' ignore
WINDOW-ORDER [Daniel M. German]
- Docks/panels are unframed, and window type is set to `dock'
by default [Timo Korvola]
- You can exit from sawfish-client with `,quit' (also `C-d'),
unlike `C-c' it won't kill the WM [Teika Kazura, Timo Korvola]
- Number widget (GtkSpinButton) can take optional initial value
[Teika Kazura]
- Changing `raise-tabs-on-hover' takes effect immediately now
[Christopher Bratusek]
- Inactive windows in Crux theme do now have black text for
better readability [Christopher Bratusek]
- With new option `customize-redirect', configurator's output
can be redirected. [Teika Kazura]
- Grow/Pack and Shrink/Yank options are in the same group now
[Christopher Bratusek]
These commands are now available from window operation menu,
too.
- When moving a window the cursor shape is now `hand2', when
resizing `crosshair' [Christopher Bratusek]
- In the theme document in the configurator, the cursor is
invisible and the wrap mode is set to word-char [Christopher
Bratusek]
- Build, installation and source
+ Improved ebuild [Christopher Bratusek]
+ Encoding is unified to utf-8 for all distributed files
[Teika Kazura]
+ Squashed all bytecompiler warnings [Matthew Love]
Some warnings were superfluous, though.
+ To info file `dir' the section `sawfish' has been added
[Luis Rodrigo Gallardo Cruz]
+ Distclean rule for po/Makefile.in [Christopher Bratusek]
+ Removed ancient sawmill removal fragments from Makefile
[Christopher Bratusek]
+ Block comments in lisp files are now semicolons
Sorry, without reason. Block comment remains allowed.
- Docs
+ Added man-pages for `sawfish', `sawfish-client' and
`sawfish-config' [Debian]
+ News items for 1.5.0 are rewritten in a more readable
fashion [Teika Kazura]
+ Info manual updates [Christopher Bratusek, Jeremy
Hankins, Teika Kazura]
+ Added new contributors to `THANKS' section of
`CONTRIBUTING' [Christopher Bratusek]
+ Updated OPTIONS and KEYBINDINGS [Christopher Bratusek]
+ Fixed the license header of tabbed-windowing files
[Christopher Bratusek]

Happy Hacking, Chris
List of Changes since 1.5.0:
1.6.0
=====
* The 1.6.0 release has new features and bugfixes
* Build and installation changes
- New/Updated requirements:
+ librep 0.90.0 -> 0.90.4
+ rep-gtk 0.18.4 -> 0.90.0
- Removed requirements: LibAudiofile and ESounD
- Mouse buttons 6 - 9 support is now optional
Support for 6 - 9 mouse buttons is now optional.
X.Org/XFree86 headers only define up to 5 buttons, and we use
a working but somewhat hackish workaround for getting buttons
6 - 9 which is suspected to cause some problems with
modifiers. Support for them is enabled by default. If you
want to disable it, add the following flag to configure:
`--without-nine-mousebuttons'
If you drop it, then you can't use mouse button 8 to, for
example, drag windows.
* Incompatible user visible changes:
- Configurator's binary, `sawfish-ui', is renamed to
`sawfish-config' [Christopher Bratusek]
Its window class is changed to `sawfish-configurator' /
`Sawfish-Configurator', too. The lisp module is renamed from
`sawfish.ui' to `sawfish.cfg'.
- Infinite Desktop boundary behavior and option
In `infinite-desktop', the option to specify the boundary
behavior has changed. If `viewport-boundary-mode' is
`dynamic', then you can go as far as you like. Otherwise, it
stops at the workspace boundary of which size is specified by
`viewport-dimensions'. Now the latter is the default. See also
"dynamic viewport" described below.
The previous variable,
`infinite-desktop.stop-at-workspace-borders', which is used
for this purpose, no longer exists.
- User config file changes
In Sawfish < 1.6, `sawfish.wm.defaults' is loaded by default,
only if the `~/.sawfishrc' lacks. Now, it is always read, so
you don't have to `require' it. It sets up GNOME and KDE
support if they run, and does `(require
'sawfish.wm.ext.error-handler)'.
Since Sawfish 1.5 `~/.sawmillrc' is no longer a valid
resoucefil. From this version on, Sawfish will rename
`~/.sawmillrc' to `~/.sawfishrc', if the former does exist on
your system, but the latter doesn't.
- In configurator, the "Matched Windows" group has been renamed
to "Window Rules"
- Sound support has changed. [Christopher Bratusek]
Sawfish used to rely on esound and libaudiofile to play
sound, but we stopped it. If you want sound, set the variable
`play-sample-program' to the path of the program capable of
playing *.wav file. You can set the variable from the
Configurator, too.
You can't set any arguments to pass from this variable. If
you want to give arguments or redirect output, write a wrapper
program. (*note FAQ::, "Sound support" section.)
- GNOME integration updates [Christopher Bratusek]
Gnome support is trimmed down. All we offer now is as follows:
If GNOME runs, in `session' submenu under Sawfish root menu,
logout and shutdown from GNOME are added. Don't remove `quit'
and `restart' from menu now. Gnome help is available in menu.
Unless set by user, gnome terminal and gnome help browser are
used for user options `xterm-program' and `browser-program'.
Most of dropped GNOME integrations are ancient, mainly for
1.x and early 2.x. Files `lisp/sawfish/wm/commands/gnome.jl'
and `lisp/sawfish/wm/state/gnome.jl' are deleted.
GNOME-Detection is updated. [Alexey I. Froloff]
- Xterm and browser changes
Module `sawfish.wm.commands.xterm' is renamed to
`sawfish.wm.commands.launcher'. Option `xterm-args' is
dropped. If you use it, simply append the value to
`xterm-program'.
Customization group is changed from `misc' to `External
Applications'.
The functinon `display-url' is renamed to `browser', now
defined in the module cited above. Variable
`display-url-command' is renamed to `browser-program'.
* Poweroff actions
Added poweroff command for letting none KDE/GNOME users easily
reboot, halt, suspend or hibernate their machine. The commands
beeing used to do so are also user-settable. In addition, when
it's used to reboot or halt, when we call the `before-exit-hook'
and `map-windows delete-window' before actually rebooting or
halting, to ensure everything is fine on the next startup.
Furthermore entries to the session-menu are beeing added. If
you're using KDE or GNOME then those are not generated.
* Bugs fixed:
- Prevents crashes for quick window destructions, especially
under high load
There have been crashes if a window is destroyed soon after
its creation. It happens in `add_window' function, and the
cause is guessed to be garbage collection following window
destruction before the object access.
Now most parts of `add_window' are protected from garbage
collection with `rep_PUSHGC' / `rep_POPGC'. It also prevents
`add_window_hook' from being called with uninitialised
argument. [Timo Korvola, Janek Kozicki]
- Random window disapperance prevention
There're reports of sudden, random window disapperance, under
Xinerama and some other drivers. It is partly prevented, but
not completely.
Now in error_handler() in src/display.c, when a window sends
request_code 12 (X_ConfigureWindow), don't auto-assume it to
be unmapped. [Janek Kozicki]
- Build and Installation:
+ Library check: Fix in `SMlib' and `libICE' check on
x11r7 [Christopher Bratusek]
+ `.desktop' files fixes: typos fix and removed unneeded
entries [Christopher Bratusek]
+ In spec file, fixed repexecdir definition [Christopher
Bratusek]
+ In `po/Makefile.in', fixed wrong call of make-pot
[Christopher Bratusek]
+ Build the FAQ upon make [Christopher Bratusek]
+ Expand REP_ENVIRON in scripts/Makefile.in [Luis Rodrigo
Gallardo Cruz]
+ Add `--tag=CC' to libtool where necessary. It unbrakes
compilation on some arches [Gentoo Linux]
+ Use $prefix/lib instead of $prefix/libexecdir, to satify
the FHS [Christopher Bratusek]
- In configurator,
Strings are fully translatable [Alexey I. Froloff]
SpinButton listens to manual value change. (It's connected to
correct signal.) [Christoper Bratusek]
Position parameters can be negative [Christopher Bratusek,
Teika Kazura]
- Fixed Focus issues with KDE4 Menu/Run-Dialog [Timo Korvola]
- Fix cursor warping in Infinite-Desktop [Jeremy Hankins]
- Fixed group of the stagger options [Christopher Bratusek]
- Fixed a call of `select-workspace-from-first' [Michal Maruška]
- In `Simple' theme, windows are now resizable from right
border [Christopher Bratusek]
- Missing exports are now supplied, for shrink-yank functions
and `send-to-workspace'. [Christopher Bratusek]
- Commands `maximize-window-fullscreen' and
`maximize-window-fullxinerame' work. [Teika kazura]
- Variable `this-command' is `nil' outside of command call.
- Customization option `uniconify-to-current-viewport' is valid
again. [Teika kazura]
* New features:
- New application menu [Matthew Love, Timo Korvola]
Sawfish now generates application menu automatically, by
reading `/usr/share/applications/*.desktop' files. If you set
`apps-menu', then it won't be done. If you like to have both
your own applications menu and auto generated one, then set
your own in `user-apps-menu' instead of `apps-menu'.
Root and Window-History menus are revamped, too. [Christopher
Bratusek]
Now you can reboot and shutdown your computer from the root
menu -> "session", but the user needs the appropriate
privilege. For a way to do so, see *Note FAQ::, "Reboot and
shutdown privilege" section.
- Added options to change the font color of window title,
independent of used theme [Matthew Love, Christopher
Bratusek, Timo Korvola]
Internally, a new function `remove-frame-part-value' which
allows to change/remove values from frame-parts is used.
[Timo Korvola]
- Sawfish does now support theme-tarballs compressed with XZ
(aka LZMA2) and LZMA [Christopher Bratusek]
- Xinerama support for Grow/Pack [Nolan Leake]
Make grow/pack Xinerama aware. The support still remains
basic. Shrink-yank doesn't yet.
- Window rules can be set by lisp
Window rules (former "matched windows") can easily be set from
configurator, but it can now be set by lisp, too, with
`add-window-matcher' function. For the details, *Note Window
Rules by Matching::. An example usage is like this:
(add-window-matcher '((WM_NAME . "^root$")
(WM_CLASS . "^XTerm/xterm$"))
'((ignore-program-position . t)
(maximize . vertical)))
In fact, this function has existed, but now it can now
specify both window name and class, and the grammar has
changed. The old syntax is still allowed, but deprecated.
- Keymap translation [Scott Scriven]
Sawfish can "translate" keymaps for each window. Suppose you
have the following lines in your `~/.sawfish/rc':
(add-window-matcher
'((WM_NAME . "^Terminal$"))
'(keymap-trans . (("C-n" "C-S-t")
("C-w" "C-S-w"))))
Then, when you press `C-n', any windows with name "Terminal"
receive `C-S-t', and so on.
This is part of window rules, but it cannot be set by
configurator yet.
- New window rules
+ Maximizations `fullscreen' and `full-xinerama' are
available (*note Maximizing Without Borders::) [Jeremy
Hankins]
+ Window position can also be specified by the direction,
like north or east, instead of the coordinates. [Jeremy
Hankins]
+ New placement modes `new-workspace' and `new-viewport'
[Jeremy Hankins]
If `new-workspace' is chosen, then the window is put in
an empty workspace, or a new workspace is created if
none. A workspace with sticky windows only are
considered empty. `new-viewport' is the same but an
empty viewport is chosen. If none is, the workspace is
enlarged, and the window is put in a new viewport.
+ `window-name' can change the window's name. [Christopher
Bratusek]
- New commands [Christopher Bratusek]
5 new move-cursor commands, 4 diagonals and 1 to center.
(*note Pointer Functions::
Three window manipulation commands, `double-window-size',
`halve-window-size', and `move-window-center'.
`browser' invokes a browser instance.
- New funcitons `rename-window' changes the window name. [from
"mmc" fork, Christopher Bratusek]
In practice, it works, but technically speaking, the window
name is not supposed to be changed in ICCCM.

2009 11 12: sawfish 1.5.3 released
The last bugfix release of the 1.5 series is available for download now!
Get it from the usual place: https://sourceforge.net/projects/sawmill/files/sawfish/1.5.3
ChangeLog:
1.5.3
=====
* The 1.5.3 release has backports from 1.6.0 (HEAD)
* Bugs fixed:
- Prevents crashes for quick window destructions, especially
under high load
There have been crashes if a window is destroyed soon after
its creation. It happens in `add_window' function, and it
might be due to a window being destroyed, garbage collected
and then accessed.
Now most parts of `add_window' are protected from garbage
collection with `rep_PUSHGC' / `rep_POPGC'. It also prevents
`add_window_hook' from being called with uninitialised
argument. [Timo Korvola, Janek Kozicki]
Sawfish 1.6.0 will hit the floor on 22nd December 2009, be sure to watch out for any bombastic release of ours!
Have Fun,
Chris

2009 07 03: sawfish 1.5.0 released
The long awaited 1.5.0 release of sawfish is finally available!
I've never thought of sawfish 1.5.0 beeing released before e17, two years ago. Thanks to John, Janek, the Sawfish-Crew, all Contributors and Users, Mandriva/Gentoo/Debian/ALT/Arch which did not drop sawfish and provide fresh packages.
It's brings one incompatibility compared to 1.3x: ~/.sawmillrc is no longer a valid configurationfile, if you still use that file, simply rename it to either ~/.sawfishrc or ~/.sawfish/rc, and you're done.
Translation bug[]
Important: the configurator GUI is broken for non-english letters (or non-ascii is more correct?).
Sawfish core members are sorry for it, and it will be fixed in 1.6.
Some additonal notes:[]
for compiling with XFree86 or X.Org 6.x instead of X.Org 7.x, add the following flag to configure:
--without-xorg-x11
for compiling with Imlib1 as image-loader instead of gdk-pixbuf-xlib (which works again), add:
--without-gdk-pixbuf
for not installing translations, add:
--without-nls
or (deprecated, since ="no" would install norwegian translation instead of nothing)
--enable-linguas=" "
to compile without pango, add:
--without-pango
(by default, X.Org 7, gdk-pixbuf-xlib, nls and pango are enabled)
The Overview of changes[]
1.5.0
=====
* The 1.5.0 release has new features and bugfixes
* New/Updated requirements:
- librep 0.17 -> 0.90.0
- rep-gtk 0.18.3 -> 0.18.4
* User visible changes:
- Fully renamed from "sawmill" to "sawfish"
If your `.sawfishrc' has a line `(require 'sawmill-defaults)',
then change it to `(require 'sawfish-defaults)'.
If your configuration file is named `~/.sawmillrc', then
rename it to `~/.sawfish/rc' or `~/.sawfishrc'.
- Configurator GUI's default style is tree view of categories.
Configurator GUI (sawfish-ui) used to display categories in
flat row, but now arranges them in tree diagram.
To use the old style, put `(define-special-variable
customize-program "sawfish-ui --flatten")' in your
configuration file.

2009 06 19: rep-gtk 0.18.6 released
a new minor bugfix release of rep-gtk is available. It's the last
release of 0.18x series, in trunk the development of rep-gtk 0.90.0 will happen the next weeks/months. The goal is to update the rep-gtk API to gtk+ 2.12, which will give us the opportunity to replace the GtkTree and the GtkCombos in sawfish-ui by GtkTreeView and GtkComboBoxes in sawfish-1.6.0 (I know, already speaking of 1.6 prior to 1.5 to be released).
Enough future plans. Now the (mini-)ChangeLog:

Long waited updates for librep & rep-gtk are now available.
librep-0.17.2 and rep-gtk-0.18.3 have many bugfixes. Especially, sawfish-1.3.4 users are encouraged to install the new rep-gtk. You can now choose themes from GUI again.
Before running 'configure' script for librep-0.17.2, do
$ libtoolize --force --copy
to generate 'config.sub'. It is not necessary for rep-gtk-0.18.3.
2008 09 17: Sawfish experimental 1.3.4 released
We are pleased to announce the experimental release of Sawfish 1.3.4. This version has new features added for testing purposes.
This new sawfish-experimental branch can always be re-created using Category:In_experimental from sawfish trunk. In this way we are solving the potential problem of the experimental branch wandering too far from the trunk. This "re-creation" method will be performed from time to time to ensure that it still works.
This release is intended to be packaged separately from sawfish release, for linux distributions, which will allow end users to have a choice between "sawfish" (stable) and "sawfish-experimental" packages.
Many hidden options were re-exposed in the configurator: viewport bindings and dimensions, window animation options, tooltips options, window movement outline modes, move/resize options and edge-flip delay. A new error handler was added which allows printing errors to both: a file and onto a screen dialog box. A new hook after raise/lower window has been added with intention of using it for tabbed-windowing. Added an option for smooth animation when changing viewports. An option allowing to warp the mouse pointer to windows while cycling them was added as well as option to move mouse cursor to active window which was just unmaximized, which prevents this window from losing focus.
See a list of patches being tested here for details.
2008 08 29: Sawfish 1.3.4 released
We are pleased to announce the 1.3.4 sawfish release. This version includes numerous bugfixes and improvements submitted by the Sawfish community.
A new Enter-Click focus mode was added, window property handling was improved, and few new themes were added. It's possible now to maximize a window over all xinerama monitors. A raise-lower-window bug when using transparent windows with xcomposite extension was fixed. Moving a window across viewports with a keybinding no longer causes them to lose focus. A major C part cleanup was done, and a spec file was updated. Finally a deprecated themer was removed.
See a list of accepted patches for details.
Themes absence in GUI[]
Themes don't appear in GUI. Fix it by updating rep-gtk to >= 0.18.3.
2008 07 23: One/two week patches deadline for 1.3.4
Sawfish 1.3.4 will be released in about one or two weeks and all submitted Patches will be considered for inclusion into this release. But there are patches with just one vote, or no votes at all! Your votes are really necessary to make a decision. If you are a sawfish user concerned about sawfish release 1.3.4 please do following:
- pick a particular patch and test it in your sawfish, by applying it to your sawfish installation and checking how it works.
- edit the patch page and put there either {{yes}}, {{no}} or {{wtf}}, with a small comment how well/bad it performs.
To keep things moving, on this release, I'll go into the risky direction, rather accepting patches than not. By this way untested patches will suddenly get a lot of testers which hopefully will bring bugfixes into the next release, or will get a patch removed in the next release. Otherwise some useful patches will keep waiting here forever. This of course means, that future release 1.3.5 will be a bugfix release :) Thanks for staying tuned!
Remeber that your input in this wiki and the mailing list is really important, it's all of you who drives sawfish releases. I'm just humbly making it happen ;)

2008 07 14: Sawfish 1.3.4 release suggested
Janek Kozicki has suggested the release of Sawfish-1.3.4, perhaps the end of this July or so.
To help him for the release, votes for patches are welcomed. - Teika kazura 08:19, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
2008 02 18: Sawfish 1.3.3 released
With our great community effort we have managed to make together the 1.3.3 sawfish release. This version includes several bugfixes. Window titles with UTF-8 are working and no more openoffice crashes, correct handling of pango fonts, inform the running theme when window title length has changed so that the theme can adjust and workaround some problems with KDE not always using freedesktop.org protocol in KDE tray.
This release was brought to you by Timo Korvola, Rodrigo Gallardo, Yuuki Harano and Harald van Dijk. Kudos to them!
See a list of accepted patches for details.
2008 02 05: Bugfix release 1.3.3 in two weeks
sawfish 1.3.3, soon[]
Due to several problems with release 1.3.2 a new bugfix release will be made around 17 february. Two patches, Utf 8 names fix and Titlebar updates shall supposedly fix problems reported at:
- http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=464139
- http://mail.gnome.org/archives/sawfish-list/2008-January/msg00061.html
This is a bugfix release so patches which add new functionality are unlikely to be added here. However I'm still encouraging you to do the usual patch testing:
- pick a particular patch and test it in your sawfish, by applying it to your sawfish installation and checking how it works.
- edit the patch page and put there either {{yes}}, {{no}} or {{wtf}}, with a small comment how well/bad it performs.
sawfish-pager 0.7, soon[]
In related news, I have contacted the sawfish-pager autor, Daniel Pfeiffer, and he was glad to hear that we want to make a new release with few bugfixes. So from now on sawfish-pager will be hosted on our wiki site, and expect a 0.7 release soon, most likely altogether with sawfish 1.3.3 release.

2008 01 20: Sawfish 1.3.2 released
We are pleased to announce the 1.3.2 sawfish release. This version includes patches submitted by sawfish community.
In this release strings are re-encoded in UTF-8 thus window titles will be set correctly regardless of title encoding and documentation was updated. Other bugfixes: nautilus can now restore its desktop window size, the 64 bit client messages were fixed, KDE system tray no longer fights with sawfish to reparent a tray icon, QT applications no longer lose focus when menu is active, window placement was corrected in xinerama/dualhead and few others.
See a list of accepted patches for details.
2008 01 14: One week patches deadline for 1.3.2
Sawfish 1.3.2 will be released around 20 january and all submitted Patches will be considered for inclusion into this release. However it is not possible to make an uninformed choice. Your votes are really necessary to make a decision. If you are a sawfish user concerned about sawfish release 1.3.2 please do following:
- pick a particular patch and test it in your sawfish, by applying it to your sawfish installation and checking how it works.
- edit the patch page and put there either {{yes}}, {{no}} or {{wtf}}, with a small comment how well/bad it performs.
Patches that I'm unable to verify (be it positively or negatively) will remain in submitted patches waiting for next release. All the other patches will be either accepted and included in 1.3.2 release or rejected.
Your input in this wiki and the mailing list is really important, it's all of you who drives sawfish releases. I'm just humbly making it happen ;)

2007 07 27: Sawfish 1.3.1 released
Sawfish 1.3.1 is the first release after the Sawfish author, John Harper, resigned from Sawfish maintainership and the Sawfish community took over.
The release 1.3.1 is to let people know about the revival of Sawfish development and that the process of collecting patches for the next release 1.3.2 has started. Please send your local or distribution-specific patches to the sawfish mailing list for consideration. Documentation was updated with v0.11 from Derek Upham, a tool for automatic screenshot generation of huge number of themes from Scott Scriven was added and a detection for Xrandr extension from Philip Langdale was added.
2007 07 03: Sawfish goes to the community
Sawfish's author, John Harper, has decided to resign from maintainership of Sawfish and currently the project is completely within the hands of Sawfish community. A group of people from the Sawfish mailing list gathered together to work on a new wiki website, and to make a new sawfish release 1.3.1.
A volunteer Janek Kozicki took the lead in the sense that he will have access to the SVN repository (and can give it to others), has administering privileges of Sawfish mailing list, has access to Sawfish website on sourceforge.net and freshmeat.net. With this power he will be able to help in managing the community's effort to make Sawfish releases, patching the code in the SVN repository and improving it (like adding an XComposite extension or tabs support to windows). But since he is not a Sawfish coder (no lisp skills, poor C skills, excellent C++ skills ─ not useful in developing Sawfish), he will rely heavily on input from other people, to get the work done.
