| 2 | * Daniel Kahn Gillmor reported a problem with return codes from xdotool. All |
|---|
| 3 | commands return proper exit status now (0 == success, nonzero == error) |
|---|
| 4 | * I tested on 3 window managers: Gnome2 2.20.0, OpenBox 3.4, ion-3rc-20070608 |
|---|
| 5 | - Gnome and OpenBox pass all tests. |
|---|
| 6 | - ion-3 fails on any desktop-related methods (ion-3 lacks the support). |
|---|
| 7 | |
|---|
| 8 | 20080601: |
|---|
| 9 | * Add new commands: |
|---|
| 10 | - windowactivate: Activate a window. If the window is on another desktop, we |
|---|
| 11 | will switch to that desktop and then activate the window. |
|---|
| 12 | - set_num_desktops number: Changes the number of desktops or workspaces. |
|---|
| 13 | - get_num_desktops: Output the current number of desktops. |
|---|
| 14 | - set_desktop desktop_number: Change the current view to the specified |
|---|
| 15 | desktop. |
|---|
| 16 | - get_desktop: Output the current desktop in view. |
|---|
| 17 | - set_desktop_for_window window_id desktop_number: Move a window to a |
|---|
| 18 | different desktop. |
|---|
| 19 | - get_desktop_for_window window_id: Output the desktop currently containing |
|---|
| 20 | the given window. |
|---|
| 21 | |
|---|
| 22 | windowactivate tested and confirmed working in: ion-3 and Gnome2 (metacity) |
|---|
| 23 | The rest of the new commands have only been tested in Gnome2. They do not |
|---|
| 24 | work in ion-3 due to lacking support for EWMH in ion. |
|---|
| 25 | * Rewrote the man page in perlpod format. |
|---|
| 26 | |
|---|
| 27 | 20080521: |
|---|
| 28 | * Import patches from keynav's xdotool branch (From Lukas Mai) which make |
|---|
| 29 | xdotool compile happily when building with -Wall and -pedantic (and others) |
|---|
| 30 | * Finally convert to using Window type for (hopefully) everything instead of |
|---|
| 31 | incorrectly typecasting Window to int sometimes. |
|---|
| 32 | * Confirmed that the one (but mostly useless) test passes. |
|---|
| 33 | |
|---|
| 34 | 20071230: |
|---|
| 35 | * Manpage contribution by Daniel Kahn Gillmor |
|---|
| 36 | * Add COPYRIGHT from svn to the distributed package. |
|---|
| 37 | |
|---|
| 38 | 20070903: |
|---|
| 39 | * Add xdo_mousemove_relative for relative mouse movements |
|---|
| 40 | * Add xdolib.sh. This is a script library to help with features xdo does not |
|---|
| 41 | explicitly implement, such as querying window attributes, or fetching the |
|---|
| 42 | root window id. An example which uses this is: examples/move_window_away.sh |
|---|
| 43 | |
|---|
| 44 | 20070812: |
|---|
| 45 | * Magnus Boman contributed keysequence_{up,down} adding new commands to |
|---|
| 46 | xdotool: keyup and keydown. These take the same arguments as 'key' but only |
|---|
| 47 | send keyup or keydown events. |
|---|
| 48 | * Lee Pumphret contributed getwindowfocus, which tells you the window id of |
|---|
| 49 | the window currently holding focus. |
|---|
| 50 | * Removed 'Makefile.no-pkg-config' because the original Makefile now knows |
|---|
| 51 | how to build for both cases: with and without pkg-config. |
|---|
| 52 | |
|---|
| 53 | 20070722: |
|---|
| 54 | * Compiles without warnings when using gcc -Wall now |
|---|
| 55 | * Fixed false error reporting due to some functions missing return statements |
|---|
| 56 | |
|---|
| 57 | 20070713: |
|---|
| 58 | * Add flag SIZE_USEHINTS to xdo_window_setsize |
|---|
| 59 | * Add flag --usehints to xdotool windowsize |
|---|
| 60 | |
|---|
| 61 | Increments are used often in terminals that say "my font is 5 by 7 pixels, so |
|---|
| 62 | resize by that increment". So, you can use this to set a terminal to be 80x24 |
|---|
| 63 | characters instead of pixels. Verified by resizing xterm and gnome-terminal |
|---|
| 64 | (with menus enabled). |
|---|
| 65 | |
|---|
| 66 | 20070712: |
|---|
| 67 | Added new search options to 'xdotool search' |
|---|
| 68 | --onlyvisible shows only visible windows in the results |
|---|
| 69 | --title causes only the window title to be matched |
|---|
| 70 | --name causes the window name to be matched |
|---|
| 71 | --class causes the window class to be matched |
|---|
| 72 | |
|---|
| 73 | For information on names and classes, check out the xprop tool. |
|---|
| 74 | For example, for an xterm you will see this in the xprop output: |
|---|
| 75 | WM_CLASS(STRING) = "xterm", "XTerm" |
|---|
| 76 | "xterm" is the name, "XTerm" is the class. Don't ask me what the differences |
|---|
| 77 | are supposed to be. ;) |
