This involves:
• Compiling with xcb-util instead of xcb-{atom,aux} (they merged the libraries)
• Not using xcb-{event,property} anymore (code removed upstream)
• Not using the predefined WINDOW, CARDINEL, … atoms (removed upstream)
• Using the new xcb_icccm_* data types/functions instead of just xcb_*
(for example xcb_icccm_get_wm_hints instead of xcb_get_wm_hints)
Also I refactored the atoms to use x-macros.
Due to lots of cases which were added and added to tree_move(), the function
was not really easy to understand. For this refactoring, I wrote tree_move()
from scratch, thinking about (hopefully) all cases. The testsuite still passes.
The move command also has different parameters now. Instead of the hard to
understand 'before v' stuff, we use 'move [left|right|up|down]'.
Instead, we attach them to their workspace when toggling back to tiling. This
makes more sense; afterall, floating clients are always directly below a
CT_WORKSPACE container.
The file is now created in /tmp using the process PID and the
username of the user running i3. The restart state file is only
loaded when restarting (the --restart option is appended to the
command line prior to the restart). That means that renaming the
old state file with the ".old" extension is no longer needed.
This "--restart" switch is supposed to be only used by i3. The
"-L" switch can be used to load a layout (and not delete it
afterwards). We unlink the state file after we load it so that
we don't keep cruft in /tmp or try to restart from an old config
file if restart_state is set.
Quote from the source:
When the container type is CT_WORKSPACE, the user wants to change the
whole workspace into stacked/tabbed mode. To do this and still allow
intuitive operations (like level-up and then opening a new window), we
need to create a new split container. */
Numbered workspaces (workspaces with a name containing only digits) will be
inserted in the correct order now. Named workspaces are always sorted after
numbered workspaces and in the order of creation.
