Changes:
winprefs* - Add a system to allow the user to specify arbitrary commands for the system tray menu (e.g. program launching shortcuts) as well as custom icons for certain window classes. This is a huge system and is really very amazing. Preferences are stored in ~/.XWinrc or in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/system.XWinrc, which is formatted as in this example .XWinrc file. (Earle F. Philhower III) winmultiwindowclass.c - Fix a string copy bug in MultiWindow mode that was likely to have been causing crashes for some people. (Earle F. Philhower III) winconfig.c - Add new defaults for keyboardlayout: English (USA, Dvorak) and Norwegian. (Alexander Gottwald)

(List suggestion) winmultiwindowclass.c - Add checks for NULL pointers. Should help fix some crashes in MultiWindow mode. (Ralf Habacker) General - Add global variable that tracks whether XInitThreads () has been called so that it is only called once per process. Calling XInitThreads multiple times may have been contributing to crashes. (Harold L Hunt II)

Changes:
winconfig.c - Change nodeadkeys default to NULL for the German (Germany) keyboard layout. (Alexander Gottwald, Benjamin Riefenstahl) X.ico - Add 24 x 24 - 256 color and 24 x 24 - 16 color icons. (Harold L Hunt II, Benjamin Riefenstahl) wintrayicon.c - Change hard-coded 16 x 16 icon load to use GetSystemMetrics (SM_CXSMICON) and GetSystemMetrics (SM_CYSMICON) to retrieve size of small icon to be used. Hopefully this loads the 24 x 24 icon on systems that have been changed to use 24 x 24 icons for the notification tray. (Harold L Hunt II, Benjamin Riefenstahl) winmultiwindowwindow.c - Break some functions from this file into several new files: winmultiwindowicons.c, winmultiwindowshape.c, and winmultiwindowwndproc.c. Provide enough Tender Loving Care (TLC) to the various header files so that all files still build with no warnings. Note that this drops the size of winmultiwindowwindow.c from 55 KiB to 21 KiB and creates three new files, none of which is larger than 23 KiB. Of those three new files, winmultiwindowicons.c is 10 KiB, winmultiwindowshape.c is 6 KiB, and winmultiwindowwndproc.c is 23 KiB. Finally, it is interesting to note that winmultiwindowwndproc.c contains a single function, winTopLevelWindowProc(), so that file cannot be made any smaller by breaking other functions into separate files. (Harold L Hunt II) winclass.c, winclass.h - Rename these files to winmultiwindowclass.c and winmultiwindowclass.h, respectively, since they are only used in MultiWindow mode. Prefix the functions in these files with MultiWindow. (Harold L Hunt II)

Changes:
wintrayicon.c/winInitNotifyIcon() - Replace call to LoadIcon with a call to LoadImage that specifies the 16x16 icon as the size to be loaded. This makes the tray icon look much cleaner. (Colin Harrison) wintrayicon.c/winDeleteNotifyIcon() - Call DestroyIcon on the icon that was loaded in winInitNotifyIcon(). (Harold L Hunt II) Clean up all compiler warnings in xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xwin. The code now builds without a single warning when using the default compilation flags on a Cygwin host.

Changes:
winmultiwindowwindow.c/winTopLevelWindowProc() - Rework the mouse polling timer so that it is attached to the root-level window. This prevents multiple mouse polling timers from being created, which was happening in the old versions. Introduce a new way of determining that the timer should be created or deleted, which will hopefully fix some corner cases where the timer was not being created. (Harold L Hunt II) XWin.rc - Remove a couple of window style flags that were not compatible with Earle's patch for removing the minimize and maximize buttons from the dialog boxes. (Earle F. Philhower III) XWin.rc - Make ``x'' and ``C'' hotkeys for the Exit Confirmation dialog box. (Colin Harrison, Biju G C)

Changes:
winmultiwindowwindow.c/winScaleXBitmapToWindows() - Clear the bits in the alpha channel of the converted 32 bpp bitmap because it was causing problems with window icons for certain display drivers. Most notably, display drivers from ATI were exhibiting these problems. (Earle F. Philhower III) wincursor.c/winPointerWarpCursor() - Discard the first cursor warp message, since this is just X putting the mouse cursor in the center of the screen, which is undesirable in Windows. (Earle F. Philhower III, Harold L Hunt II) windialogs.c/winDisplay[Exit|DepthChange]Dialog() - Add calls to drop the minimize and maximize buttons from the Exit Confirmation and Depth Change dialog boxes, while preserving the icon on the upper left hand corner of the dialog window. (Earle F. Philhower III)

Changes:
Convert X application icons set in WM_HINTS from XPMs to Windows BMPs using an internal algorithm. Earle, Ralf, and Colin worked together on this one with coding, suggesting ideas, and testing. The end result is, as they say, very nearly perfect. Each top-level X window is now given its own class that has an icon associated with it. The icon can be even changed while the application is running and this is properly handled. Icons are properly freed when a window and its associated class are destroyed. This entry encompasses a flurry of emails and patches that I cannot possibly recount here; hopefully no one feels slighted by this brief summary. (Earle F. Philhower III, Ralf Habacker, Colin Harrison) Set XIconSizes() to the Windows approved 16, 32, and 48. It doesn't seem to be looked at by anything, but it is in the XLib documents as something a WM should set. (Earle F. Philhower III) Removed several misc compile warnings. (Earle F. Philhower III) winmultiwindowwindow.c/winTopLevelWindowProc() - Add a call to winKeybdReleaseKeys () in WM_KILLFOCUS. This fix stops the phantom key presses that people were seeing. The example here would be to launch an xterm, then launch another xterm from that xterm. Type ``exit'' in the first xterm and press enter. The enter keydown message is processed by the second xterm, but the keyup is never processed so it got sent repeatedly to the root-level message loop (which performs all keyboard processing), causing phantom key presses to show up in any X app that currently had the focus. At least, I think that is that the problem was. An interim solution was to press and release the enter key, which would cause a keydown/keyup message combo to be sent, thus ending the crazy looping. This fix pops all keys that are pressed when the current X app looses the keyboard focus. Colin suggested this, Earle move the location of the call to the proper place. (Colin Harrison, Earle F. Philhower III) XWin.rc - Change the Exit Confirmation and Depth Change dialog boxes to be centered by adding the DS_CENTER flag to the STYLE attribute. (Biju G C, Harold L Hunt II) winmultiwindowwindow.c/winTopLevelWindowProc() - Let DefaultWindowProc() handle the Alt+F4 key combo in the WM_*KEYDOWN messages. This allows a user to close a top-level X window (which has an associated Windows window) by pressing Alt+F4. Note that this happens regardless of the -[no]winkill command-line parameter. This is the desired behavior since -[no]winkill should only affect the behavior of the root-level window, not the individual X Client windows. (Biju G C, Harold L Hunt II) winwndproc.c/winWindowProc() - Define a WM_GIVEUP message that calls GiveUp(); remove the GiveUp() call from WM_CLOSE and replace it with a call to winDisplayExitDialog(), which displays the Exit Confirmation dialog box. This only makes sense in conjunction with the next change log entry. (Biju G C, Harold L Hunt II) windialogs.c/winExitDlgProc()/WM_COMMAND/ID_OK - Pass WM_GIVEUP to PostMessage() instead of passing WM_CLOSE. This patch causes the end result that, in MultiWindow mode, selecting Close from the system menu for non-root-level Windows window causes that particular X Client to be killed. The previous result was that the XWin.exe process was exited without displaying the Exit Confirmation dialog box. This must have been a frustrating situation indeed and it makes this bug a marvelous catch on Biju's part. NOTE: The system menu can be opened by right clicking on the title bar, or by left clicking the icon in the upper left-hand corner of the app window, or by right clicking on the application entry in the task bar. (Biju G C, Harold L Hunt II) windialogs.c/winDisplay(Exit)|(ChangeDepth)Dialog() - Call SetForegroundWindow() if the dialog box has already been created. This pulls the dialog box to the foreground if it has been buried by other windows. It is legitimate to do this here because we are responding to user input of some sort when this function gets called. (Harold L Hunt II) XWin.rc - Add the extended style WS_EX_DLGMODALFRAME and the normal style WS_DLGFRAME to the Exit Confirmation dialog box in an attempt to stop the dialog box from being listed in the task bar, which was reported by one user. This task bar listing has been negatively confirmed in Windows 2000 and Windows XP, but it may be happening in other versions of Windows. Of course, this could have been a reference to the fact that the dialog is present in the Alt+Tab list. However, that is the desired behavior and will not be changed (how else could you get back to that dialog box?). (Biju G C, Harold L Hunt II) Try, in vain, to maintain a uniform coding style and variable/function naming convention. I am mostly winning the curly-brace (curly braces on separate lines please), indenting (emacs default please), parameter spacing (e.g. func (x, y) instead of func( x,y ), func( x, y ), or even func(x,y)), and binary operator spacing ((x + y) instead of (x+y)) wars, but I am pitiful excuse for a belligerent dictator when it comes to the variable naming (follow examples in winwndproc.c), variable prefixing (follow winwndproc.c, which is my own sick mix of Hungarian prefixes (int, dw, psz, f) and old-school C prefixes (i, n, l)), and function naming wars. I would like to ask all contributors to try to follow the code that they see in the files that I authored, but I don't feel that I have the right to reject patches that don't follow those conventions. I will, however, try my best to adapt all patches so that I can read them and more easily maintain them in the future. You may also have noticed that I am a profuse commentor... I do that because I have a very poor memory of why things were done they way that they were done, so I sprinkle tips throughout the code to help myself remember things. You know, I have been realizing the entire time that I was writing this change log that I have low blood sugar, I am very tired, and this is so not the place for such huge amounts of text. Time for bed. Change log over. (Anonymous... Like you have to guess)

Philhower III) Fix a race between the startup of the clipboard thread and MultiWindow window manager thread that caused window title changing to bork. (Harold L Hunt II) Stop calling pthread_exit () from winClipboardErrorHandler (). An error is an error, not a reason to dump core. This may fix problems people have been having with -clipboard, but I don't make any promises. (Harold L Hunt II)

Changes:
Fix/implement window maximizing and restoring in MultiWindow mode. (Earle F. Philhower III) Implement handling in MultiWindow mode for monitors to the left of the primary monitor on systems with multiple monitors. (Earle F. Philhower III) Destroy the Exit confirmation dialog box and NULL its pointer when the server is reset. This fixes a problem that occurred when the Exit confirmation dialog box was displayed and the server was reset; the Exit confirmation dialog box would never display again after that happened, preventing you from normally exiting Cygwin/X. (Harold L Hunt II) Make the Windows window title include the display number and screen number (e.g. Cygwin/X 0:0) for the main window in non-MultiWindow modes and the normally hidden root window in MultiWindow mode.

Changes:
Fix the Exit confirmation dialog box so that the arrow keys, tab keys, and Enter/Escape keys all work. Additionally, make the Exit confirmation dialog box get the keyboard focus when it is opened. It was being set as the active window, but the keyboard focus was not being set properly. (Harold L Hunt II) Make the Cancel button the default button on the Exit confirmation dialog box. Thanks to Biju G C for giving me a heads-up on this one. (Harold L Hunt II) Fix the cursor hiding on the Exit confirmation dialog box that was occurring when no X Client windows were open in MultiWindow mode. (Harold L Hunt II) Fix the Exit confirmation dialog box so that it doesn't prevent the keyboard focus from returning to X Client windows in MultiWindow mode when you dismiss the dialog box by closing it or by pressing Cancel. (Harold L Hunt II) Change the root window title in MultiWindow mode to ``Cygwin/X'' from ``Cygwin/X rl''. (Harold L Hunt II) Change MultiWindow mode to use XWin.log again, instead of XWinrl.log. (Harold L Hunt II) Change the top-level window procedure for MultiWindow mode to share a global cursor hidden/shown flag with the root window procedure. (Harold L Hunt II)

(Harold L Hunt II) Add ``Show Root Window'' and ``Hide Root Window'' commands to the tray icon right-click menu when using MultiWindow mode (-multiwindow command-line parameter). These commands should be self-explanatory. Thanks to Biju G C for the idea for this. (Harold L Hunt II) Add the X icon to the Depth Change dialog box. Has anyone ever seen this dialog box? I added it months ago and have never heard from anyone that it works or doesn't work. (Harold L Hunt II)

(Early Ehlinger) Add popup menu for right-click on tray icon. Add menu item for ``Exit''. (Harold L Hunt II) Add -[no]trayicon command-line parameters. The default is for the tray icon to be created for each screen (as if -trayicon were passed). You can turn tray icons off by placing -notrayicon at the beginning of the parameter list to XWin.exe (must be before any -screen x parameters). You can then enable the tray icon on a screen-by-screen basis by placing -trayicon after any -screen x parameter that you wish to have tray icons enabled for. For example, ``XWin.exe -notrayicon -screen 0 -screen 1 -screen 2 -trayicon'', would create three screens, two of which (screens 0 and 1) would not have tray icons, while the third (screen 2) would. Hide root window in MultiWindow mode. (Early Ehlinger) Add some initial support files that might eventually hold code for the X Video Extension. These files do not currently affect the operation of the server and I have stopped working on them for the time, but I will leave them there as a place holder. (Harold L Hunt II)
