"SfR Fresh" - the SfR Freeware/Shareware Archive

Member "WindowMaker-0.92.0/TODO" of archive WindowMaker-0.92.0.tar.gz:


As a special service "SfR Fresh" has tried to format the requested source page into HTML format using source code syntax highlighting with prefixed line numbers. Alternatively you can here view or download the uninterpreted source code file. That can be also achieved for any archive member file by clicking within an archive contents listing on the first character of the file(path) respectively on the according byte size field.
    1 remake wrlib rule to not compile with -fomit-frame-pointer and stuff
    2 if its added to CFLAGS
    3 
    4 Do ASAP:
    5 ========
    6 - fix bestvisual selection code. Broken.
    7 - fix RemakeStackList() to account for transient windows
    8 - blink border of clients with UrgencyHint set between red and black
    9 - finish session stuff
   10 - remove colors_per_channel stuff from wmaker after?
   11 + finish the ability to browse for files/dirs in the WPrefs menu editor
   12 - check whether window states are being saved/restored properly via netwm
   13   on restart/crash-restart (grep for XXX/TODO)
   14 
   15 Need to do:
   16 ===========
   17 - figure out a better gnustep path for wprefs.app installation
   18 - impelment a generic pixmap type, which receives attributes
   19   (scaled/maxscaled/centered/tiled, smoothed, size/position, ...)
   20 - allow user to select/restore default root menu from wprefs
   21 - support for X11R6.4 extension for getting extra visual info in wrlib's
   22   automatic best context guessing
   23 - docklet to control AccessX (keyboard accessibility) functions
   24 - rewrite all redundant stuff to use WINGs
   25 - add function to directly make a thumbnail of an image, using the
   26   functionality provided by the image libraries to load a minimal
   27   amount of data.
   28 - rewrite defaults/wdefaults stuff to use WINGs UD stuff. Search list:
   29   ~/G/D/WindowMaker /u/l/s/W/D/WindowMaker built-in-defaults
   30 - remake internal string processing to use wchar? unicode?
   31 - add new file for stuff like default commands and dnd commands for
   32   docked apps, balloons for the dock etc
   33 - check whether apps with name.class set to empty strings should be treated
   34   like if name.class is NULL.NULL
   35 - review the defaults handling code (not to reread after we update a
   36   domain if possible, check WINGs apps updating WMWindowAttributes after
   37   start making screen to flash on update)
   38 
   39 
   40 Maybe some day:
   41 ===============
   42 - virtual workspace
   43 - optimize for size
   44 
   45 
   46 Never: (so, dont even bother to ask)
   47 ======
   48 - different themes for each workspace. Unless you give us a SGI/Power Onyx
   49   with 2 CPUs ;). 
   50 - anything that requires the mouse pointer to be jumped by WindowMaker to
   51   somewhere. This is *terrible* behaviour. And it's not just IMO.
   52 - rewrite to use Gtk... I wont even bother to explain why...
   53 
   54 
   55 - ICCCM 2.0: ICCCM 2.0 (not 1.0, which is what everybody supports so so) is
   56 a relatively new standard and nobody, AFAIK, complies with it (not even
   57 twm as people tend to think). It has some neat things, but many of the new
   58 stuff is really weird and tricky to implement, not to say unworthy (read the
   59 specs and you'll see). This is not bad, since I think it is very unlikely
   60 that a client that requires it exists... Anyway, if we get an "official"
   61 sample implementation (twm?) it might be supported. Maybe dtwm supports
   62 it? I dont know...
