Rumai 3.0.0

Ruby interface to the wmii window manager

http://snk.tuxfamily.org/...

Rumai is a [1]Ruby interface to the [2]wmii window manager.

* It excels at dynamic arrangement of clients, columns,
views, and tags.

* It provides an [3]interactive shell for live
entertainment and experimentation.

* It contains a pure Ruby client for the [4]9P2000 protocol
on which wmii's [5]IXP file-system interface is built.

Version 3.0.0 (2009-05-11)

This release revises method names, adds new methods, and
fixes a bug.

Incompatible changes

* Rename #toggle_ methods to use ! suffix in their names.

* Rename #float methods to #floating.

* Rename View#floater method to View#floating_area.

New features

* Add Client#stick methods to manipulate sticky status.

* Add Client#fullscreen methods to manipulate fullscreen
status.

* Add Client#slay method which is a forceful version of
#kill.

* Add View#select method to move focus relatively inside a
view.

* Add Area::floating method for symmetry with Area::curr.

* Add View#managed_area aliases for View#column methods.

Bug fixes

* Fix error when unzooming clients from temporary view.

* Fix code that launches temporary terminals in
[6]Tutorial.
Use the /bin/sh version of the read command for
portability.

Housekeeping

* Use Client#send instead of #swap in automated
arrangements because it causes less traffic on /event/.

* Add old release notes from blog to user manual.
