    Fluxbox description

     

    Fluxbox is a lightweight and highly configurable window manager with pwm-like tabs.

    Fluxbox is yet another windowmanager for X.

    Fluxbox is based on the Blackbox 0.61.1 code. Fluxbox looks like blackbox and handles styles, colors, window placement and similar thing exactly like blackbox (100% theme/style compability).

    Here are some key features of "Fluxbox":

    · Configurable window tabs. | [See screenshot: Window tabs]
    · Iconbar (for minimized/iconified windows) | [See screenshot: Minimized/iconified icons]
    · Wheel scroll changes workspace
    · Configurable titlebar (placement of buttons, new buttons etc) | [See screenshot: Titlebar]
    · KDE support | [See screenshot: KDE Support]
    · New native integrated keygrabber (supports emacs like keychains)
    · Maximize over slit option
    · Partial GNOME support
    · Extended Window Manager Hints support
    · Slit dockap ordering
    · Other minor features

    What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]

    · Changed syntax for window cycling. Instead of bitmask, the window cycling functions takes a list of options enclosed in {} followed by pattern, similar to those used in the apps file.
    · Added new placement policies {Row,Col}MinOverlapPlacement. They behave the same as {Row,Col}SmartPlacement when the window fits but fall back on minimizing overlap with other windows instead of CascadePlacement.
    · New options to client patterns: - focushidden - fullscreen - head - iconhidden - layer - minimized - maximized - shaded - stuck - transient - urgent - workspace - workspacename
    · New commands: - Attach - ClientMenu - Delay - Focus - ForEach - GoToWindow - If - StartMoving - StartResizing - StartTabbing - SetDecor - SetTitle - SetTitleDialog - SetLayer
    · New modifiers to keys file: - OnToolbar - OnWindow - OnTitlebar - Double
    New resources: - session.screen.tabs.usePixmap: - session.screen.maxIgnoreIncrement: - session.screen.noFocusWhileTypingDelay: - session.screen.maxDisable{Move,Resize}: - session.screen.slit.acceptKdeDockapps:
    · New Resize modes: NearestEdge, Left, Right, Top, Bottom.
    · Style changes: New window.label.(un)focused.{justify,border{Color,Width}}, which fallback to window.label.{justify,border{Color,Width}} before - this has the backwards-incompatible effect that toolbar.iconbar.(un)focused.* fallback first to toolbar.iconbar.* and then to window.label.* window.{justify,border{Color,Width}} New style items: window.(un)focus.border{Width,Color}
    · New or updated translations: - de_AT - de_CH - mk_MK - zh_TW
    Added -list-commands command line option, which prints a list of valid fluxbox commands. Bug fixes:
    · #1809786, Fixed gcc 2.96 compile problem.
    · #1787345, Fix crash when cycling focus and window closes.
    · #1836182, Fix division by 0 error when resize increments are set to 0 by an application.
    · #1843325, Fix startup items in apps file with specified screen number
    · #1786566, NLS entries for Mouse Tab Focus and Click Tab Focus were switched.
    · #1806327, Fix `About' menu item with tcsh. See ChangeLog for more details
