This page describes the changes of the CERN customisation of the HEPiX X11 scripts.
The versions prior to 3.1.1 are described elsewhere.
/usr/local/bin/mailreg -zephyr -notest
to xclients.m
wm/fvwm2_configuration
This is essentially identical to 3.2.2 with a few cleanups:
fvwmrc_migrate
in xclients.m
xprofile
fvwm2
menus to avoid hanging
"sh -c" processes
This version is identical to 3.2.1 except that it contains some
temporary scripts (fvwmrc_convert
and fvwmrc_migrate
)
to ease the transition from fvwm
to fvwm2
.
The scripts will convert the fvwm
configuration files
at login time. The user can then switch from one window manager to another.
This version is the first one with fvwm2
as the default
window manager.
The only change is that the files have been recompiled for the updated ASIS architectures (HP-UX 10.20 and Solaris 2.5) and for the de-facto standard version of Linux at CERN: Red Hat 4.1.
Also, because of problems with fvwm
on ASIS, the
default window manager is now fvwm2
for Linux (only).
xprofile
,
HX_WM
is now 'fvwm -prepare' and
HX_FONT_PATH
has now multiple entries
prepare_fvwmrc
is now obsolete and will soon
be removed; one should use prepare-wmrc
instead
fvwm
and fvwm2
configuration files now use prepare-wmrc
;
also a buggy URL has been fixed
fvwm
version 2
that should work with prepare-wmrc
(part of the HEPiX X11 scripts version 3.2)
HX_GROUP_DIR=$GROUP_DIR
" in xprofile
to prepare the transition with the version 3.2 of the HEPiX X11 scripts
prepare_fvwmrc
to handle a 'focus' section
(because the focus policy cannot be unset) and to look for user menu
templates at all levels, from user to hep
adam
to the DeskTop popup
cernvm
(but left x3270
)
from the StdTools popup
ksh
syntax in the files
xclients
and xclients.m
