What is it ?
Metacity is a simple window manager that integrates nicely with GNOME 2.
What’s changed ?
Thanks to Cosimo Cecchi, Jens Granseuer, Jim Huang, Andrea Del Signore, and Thomas Thurman for improvements in this version.
(Cosimo’s patch was very similar to another received from Jason Ribero.)
- Allow horizontal and vertical maximisation using the mouse (Cosimo/Jason ) (GNOME bug 358674)
- Allow “spacer” as a value for buttons, for blank space (Andrea ) (GNOME bug 509165)
- Remove unused code (Jim)
- refactor preferences handling (Thomas)
- make sure we’re valid C89 (Jens ) (GNOME bug 518917)
- some messing with tool scripts (Thomas)
