Perhaps it would make sense to rename them to tabbed-elberg and
tabbed-get-s.

Because when I was looking for tabbed themes I scrolled down the list
of themes to check if any of them started with "tab*". I suppose
that's the intuitive way.

NEWS on 1.6.0

Hi all,

Half of the time for Sawfish 1.6 has passed, so it's time for some news
for those who didn't follow the HEAD.

(refer to ChangeLog/NEWS to know who is responsible for what)

* Removed built-in Audio Support
	- Instead we rely on an extern playbin ("/usr/bin/paplay")
	- important customization options:
		° audio-events-enabled (bool)
		° play-sample-program
			^ there's more, check OPTIONS ("audio options")
	- So we got rid of ESounD and LibAudioFile dependencies
		° Sawfish is now Deprecated-GNOME-Cruft free
			^ Project Ridley finished for Sawfish

* Themes in tar.xz and tar.lzma formats are now supported (librep .90.1)

* SawfishUI ("sawfish-ui") is now SawfishConfig ("sawfish-config")
	- modules moved from sawfish.ui.* to sawfish.cfg.*

* SawfishConfig non-ASCII string issue has been fixed
	- bug in librep < .90.2

* An own implementation of the FDO Applicationmenu is now shipped
	- it's automagically beeing used
		° if there's no customized apps-menu

* SawfishConfig/Sawfish UI improvements

GtkComboBox in rep-gtk

Hi all,

I just implemented the GtkComboBox in rep-gtk.

But I've got one question: Should I replace the deprecated GtkCombo
Widgets in SawfishConfig by GtkComboBox or GtkComboBoxEntry Widgets?

The later is derived from the former so it takes just a few minutes to
implement it, but It's late now, so I'll do that tommorow ;)

Regards,
Chris

How about displaying Viewport name when changing a Viewport?

Oh, do you also plan to fix

  http://sawfish.wikia.com/wiki/Proposed_Goals#Restart_and_viewport

for 1.6.0 ? I suffer from this one too...

Maybe (just maybe..) I will sit down this sunday to fix that 

  http://sawfish.wikia.com/wiki/Proposed_Goals#Crash_fix

And I wanted to skip installing 1.6.0 now, because I have just
installed 1.5.0.

I hope that if I fix this in 1.5.0, will it be portable to 1.6.0?
How do you think?

Stupid problem, is that I can only manage one day for doing this, and
it's sunday. So waiting for some answers from the mailing list, when
I hit an obstacle when fixing this bug is not an option :/

Viewports don't really have names, they have coordinates.  I guess you
could display those.  But wouldn't a pager make more sense?

yes I have a pager. But you could assign names to those "coordinates"
and call viewport 1,4 "email" or such. Those would be displayed in
similar manner as assigning name "email" to workspace number 3.

Sorry, I quoted your text badly -- I was talking about saving viewport
state across restart, not the crash.  I shouldn't have included that
part of your text in my reply.

Re: ChangeLog -> git log?

Thanks, German. Can I ask more?

1. It may not be your case, but if people have different branches,
which should be the date of hand-written ChangeLog? The day git commit
is done, or the day merge to the trunk is done? With the former, you
can easily see the relation between ChangeLog item and git/svn log
counterpart.  With the latter, suppose you want to see what happend
recently, and it suffices to read the some first lines, through the
items you've met last time.

# By the way, I put
 alias PG='git tag -f pull; git pull'
So after pull, I can see the change with 'git log pull..'

2. Commit log is more firmly attached to the change. When you done git
/ svn blame, first you see is the commit log. So it should talk more
verbosely then ChangeLog, like why the commit is desired, what lied
behind, etc. And manual ChangeLog is more concise. (So when you do
git-pull / svn update, first you read will be ChangeLog.) Am I right,
do you think?

Teika (Teika kazura)
