Changelog for AfterStep-1.8.10-1rh7.i386.rpm :
Wed Jan 17 11:00:00 2001 David Mihm
1.8.9 patch 1 (sasha)
o Fix X libraries order, to have Xext preceed X11 - causes problems on
some Solaris systems.
o fixed two warnings related to time.h
o commented out dependency checking to avoid problems for users with old
compilers. It is not needed in stable series anyways.
o Added functionality to WindowsDesk function. If second argument is
10000 then first is relative desk number, instead of exact.
o Implemented Xinerama support. When window is initially placed - it
will be appropriately moved to not appear in between monitors, unless
user requested geometry explicetely.
o When Xinerama is active, and asetroot is requested to scale or pad
background image to the screen size it will use size of the first head
( the one with origin of 0,0 ).
o Implemented separate Feel, Look, Background and Init/Restart functions
for different screens in multihead config with no Xinerama.
o We now read $TMPDIR in order to locate /tmp directory, and falling back
to /tmp if envvar is not set.
o somewhat fixed Align and Pad fields in the Asetroot config parsing.

1.8.8 patch 1 (sasha+allanon)
o installastheme.pl now uses the first screen depth reported by xdpyinfo
instead of the last; this fixes problems with the look not updating on
XFree86 4.x (allanon)
o removed reference to xiterm from Wharf config file; wharf now tries to
load aterm, and then xterm if that fails (allanon)
o fix to mystyle drawing as applyed to empty menu drawing
o removed config reading from the pipe - was causing some compile time
problems and really was never needed.
o updated README.nl
o fixed configure to sheck if X11/xpm.h should be used or just xpm.h,
updated as_xpm.c accordingly.

1.8.4 patch 4 (sasha)
o Added -fPIC to the compilation flags when compiling with GCC so to
allow for compilation on IA64 architecture( as sugested on AS
MailingList).
1.8.4 patch 3 (sasha)
o Removed lots of memory allocation code from lib/safemalloc.c. It was not
used anyways, but was causing problems on some older compilers.
o Fixed src/afterstep/module.c to use different name for the socket when
compiled under MS Windows (CYGWIN).
1.8.4 patch 2 (sasha)
o fixed bug in iconization of windows with shaped icons, that was causing
some servers to crash.
o fixed harmless bug in menu window creation code, that was causing error
message on startup - trying to create window with width = 0
1.8.4 patch 1 (sasha)
o fixed Audio to wait for delay only after sounds that has been played
successfully
o patched nasty bug in libasimage/mystyle_property.c so that None pixmap
does not get checked.
1.8.0 patch 4 (sasha)
o rewrote Audio. It now autodetects rplay via configure; external player
command has been moved into configure too, only args can be specifyed in
audio config. Two more built-in options added - builtin-cat to stream
contents of the sound file directly to /dev/audio, and builtin-stdout
to dump it to STDOUT.
o fixed afterstep to assign screen = Scr.screen to fix garbled output on
multiscreen
o cosmetic change in startmenu to read Star Office suite instead of site
o added default colors to Pager\'s BorderColor, GridColor and SelectionColor
o changed socket to use /tmp instead of non-configurable
1.8.0 patch 3 (sasha)
o Fixed extra line in .depend files causing make to fail
o backported true transparency changes from 1.9 into pixmap.c
1.8.0 patch 2 (sasha+contrib)
o fixed shaped icons. (contributed by Mark Phillips)
o fixed Pager\'s window stacking order (backported from 1.9 )
o removed screen from libraries (backported from 1.9 )
o fixed .depend files to hopefully compile on dumb Solaris.

[AfterStep-1.8.0-1]
1.7.172-02 (1.7.174)
*
*
*
* This is stable release 1.8.0
*
*
*
*
o Changed Nop \" \" to Nop \"\" in the two a_nop files under start/ tree
o fixed n-c/ dir feels to have CirculateWindowUp (vs old CirculateUp)
o corrected typos in NEW and UPGRADE file (missing Theme/ on
$HOME/GNUstep/Library/AfterStep/Desktop/.include)
o low and behold, to the new stable!

1.7.172-01 (1.7.173)
o installation no longer halts if /usr/share/gnome/wm-properties or
/usr/local/share/gnome/wm-properties exists but is not writable
o balloons now have a ten second maximum time-to-live; they will auto
close after ten seconds, even if the pointer has not left the trigger
window
o modified menu include to backslash-escape all non-alphanumeric chars
in the pathname when the function is Exec; this should be completely
transparent to the user
o removed --enable-makemenus (NO_MAKESTARTMENU); this option\'s
functionality no longer exists
o added tools/testcompile.sh to test configure options easily
o lots of fixes to make compilation options work; every single configure
option now works (by itself) on my system, and ~1000 combinations also
work with no warnings and no errors
o Auto: REMOVED module, as it does not work as well as the equivalent AS
function (AutoRaise)
o Form: modified escaping rules to backslash-escape all non-alphanumeric
characters, not just single quote, double quote, and backslash; this
allows the theme creation form to correctly create themes whose names
contain arbitrary characters
