| Latest Version: 2.14.1 |
New stable version. Advantages over 2.12.x:
- Edge resistance when moving windows
- Dozens and dozens of moving, resizing, and placement bugs fixed
- Raise-on-click is a pref now
- Display hostname in titlebar for remote X clients.
- Fixed multiple bugs with multi-head support
- Real vertical and horizontal maximization exist now
- Make Alt-Esc really behave as "switch between windows immediately" including showing minimized windows
- Don't allow focus stealing from terminals (sadly, some consider this a misfeature; will probably be an option in 2.16.x)
- Real support for --disable-gconf for e.g. embedded systems
- An --enable-compositor mode that should be workable "if you're the right kind of person"; disabled by default
- Tons of other miscellaneous bug fixes
