- Back to using select() for main loop. Thus we are not longer relying
on libevent.
- Add generic timeout system (untested) to prepare for D-Bus support.
- Drop troff man pages. Revise Makefile to improve documentation
building, fix double LDFLAGS inclusion, and re-add -lrt. This turns
asciidoc into a build time dependency.
- Change fading time calculation.
- Add --logpath and ostream_reopen() for debugging with -b.
- Drop unused lceil_ntimes() and other helper functions.
- Only very limited tests are done. Bugs to be expected.

- (Hopefully) fix all incorrect handling of w->a.border_width in compton
(#77). Thanks to baskerville for reporting.
- Attempt to fix #73 by correcting a mistake that window data is fetched
from the wrong function. Thanks to zakkak.
- Add git commit/tag detection to Makefile for automatic versioning.
- Change -lGL linking order, to fix a segmentation fault caused by
something in nvidia-drivers under FreeBSD, mentioned in #74. Thanks
for the report from DachiChang.
- Link to -levent_core instead of -levent in Makefile. We might move to
libev soon, though.
- Increase SWOPTI_TOLERANCE to handle the extraordinary delay of
kqueue() under FreeBSD. Thanks for DachiChang's report.
- Add helper function dump_drawable() for debugging.
- Replace XInternAtom() calls with get_atom().
- Remove -lrt as it's unneeded.
- Use libevent for main loop. I will explain the reasons in #56 later.
The preferred libevent version is 2.x, yet 1.4.x should work as well.
- As a result, compton now should build fine on *BSD. Thanks to
DachiChang for the FreeBSD build issue report.
- Another consequence is we now use microsecond-level timing all the
way. Nanosecond-level code will be dropped soon. Start using long
instead of unsigned long to represent time in milliseconds, as both
can't hold the full epoch time in ms, anyway, and a signed type
requires less care in subtraction. Wrap the epoch time in ms to 15
days.
- Fix broken NO_VSYNC_DRM and NO_VSYNC_OPENGL compile-time options.
- Use git revision number for versioning in Makefile, and other small
improvements.
- Reorganize struct _win. Drop unused w->damaged_sequence. w->damaged is
turned to bool.
- Add type and format to winprop_t, as preparation for the new condition
format.
- Add w->shadow_force and w->focus_force, to prepare for D-Bus support.
- Rename wid_get_prop() to wid_get_prop_adv() with more options. Add
wrapper function wid_get_prop().
- Add some extra helper functions, for D-Bus support later.
- Make some functions return a bool value to indicate if it's
successful.
- Modify add_win(), use a static const structure to initialize the new
struct _win.
- Add some helper macros, like printf_err(f)(q). Make some errors fatal.
- Rename some types, constants, and functions. Code clean-up.
- Check for time disorder in paint_preprocess() when calculating fading
steps.
- Rename evpoll() to swopti_handle_timeout(), and partially rewrite it.
- Make -h / --help legal.
- Known issue: compton segfaults on FreeBSD with nvidia-drivers, unless
NO_VSYNC_OPENGL is used. Will look into it later. Thamls to DachiChang
for reporting.

- Remove the region expansion design in win_blur_background(). I must be
sleep-walking when I wrote that!
- Improve performance of blurring when a window is opaque but its frame
is transparent.
- Adjust blur strength according to window opacity.
--blur-background-fixed restores the old behavior.
- Add "use_offset" parameter to a few functions for convenience. Code
clean-up.
- Add window background blur support (--blur-background &
--blur-background-frame), with X Render convolution filter.
The performance sucks. The performance when the window is opaque but
frame is transparent could be improved, but there are two possible
ways and I'm hesitating.
- Known issue: The blurring effect looks very ungraceful during fading.
I could partially fix the problem, but it probably isn't easy to fix
it completely.
- Move some long functions to ./src/compton.c .
- Fix a small potential issue in win_set_focused() when a window with
neither leader nor client window is focused.
- Add DEBUG_LEADER.
- Add auxiliary window detection (--detect-transient &
--detect-client-leader). Thanks to SmilingHorse for inspiring me. The
implementation is not too speed-efficient, and bugs are to be
expected.
- Known issue: auxiliary window detection may not work too well with
windows that are never mapped, for example as client leader.

- Add "focus" to the wintypes settings in compton.conf, to mark windows
of certain window types to be always focused. Replaces the ugly
is_normal_win().
- Add a ON/OFF/UNSET switch_t type, but it's unused currently.
- Mark client_win if the window client detection hasn't been performed
when we detect WM_STATE's presence in ev_property_notify(), for
performance.
- Attempt to fix client window detection when WM_STATE property is not
yet set when the window is mapped. Thanks to kinclma1 for reporting.
- Apply stricter checks for whether window is mapped in
determine_evmask() and win_mark_client().
- Note I'm not in the best state today (bad cold & sleep-deprived). This
commit is likely to introduce bugs.
- Attempt to fix client window detection failures happening when compton
searches for client window before it's ready.
- Fix build failure with <libpcre-8.20. Thanks to @pvanek for reporting
in #51.
- Move client window detection to a new function win_recheck_client().
- Add win_unmark_client(), which unmarks a client window.
- Rename a few functions.
- Split fetching of values of type-Window properties to a new function
wid_get_prop_window().
- Add extra safety checks and assert calls to various functions, to
expose potential bugs.
- Fix a memory leak that w->role is not freed on window destruction.
- Add support of matching WM_WINDOW_ROLE value. Thanks to Vladimir A.
Pavlov!
- Thanks to Vladimir A. Pavlov for reporting the issues caused by
missing client window, fixed in the last commit!
- Fix a memory leak in wid_get_text_prop() and wid_get_name(). Xlib
documentation did not mention how to free the value XGetTextProperty()
returns, so my fix could lead to troubles.
- Set focus out in unmap_win(), and add w->leader, to prepare for
subsidiary window detection.
- Abstract update of a single string window property to
win_get_prop_str().
- Change wid_get_name() to rely on wid_get_text_prop() as much as
possible.
- Correct a typo in win_get_prop_str() that could cause unnecessary
update of shadow state and window focus.
- Make inactive_dim opacity change according to window opacity by
default, so it looks better when fading. --inactive-dim-fixed restores
the old behavior.
- Make client window default to the window itself. Add w->wmwin to
represent whether the window looks like a WM window instead. A side
effect is, the window type of WM windows are changed from unknown to
normal, making it necessary to use --mark-wmwin-active to avoid
considering them unfocused.
- Add check of PointerRoot to recheck_focus() to avoid BadWindow errors
when the root window is focused.
- Add a few macros to simplify debugging code.
- Add DEBUG_FRAME.
- Add --focus-exclude, which should be used with a list of conditions to
set certain windows to always be considered focused.
- Change focus determination process, with a newly added w->focused_real
that reflects whether the window is actually focused, while w->focused
represents whether compton considers it focused. The primary
difference is now when a window considered focused because of
--mark-wmwin-focused or --mark-ovredir-focused receives a FocusOut
event, it's still considered focused by compton.
- Change opacity target and dim state calculation so that it's done at
most once every paint.
- Split window opacity property fetching from calc_opacity() to a new
function win_update_opacity_prop().
- Silence a warning in wid_get_prop_wintype().
- Rename a few functions. Code clean-up.
- My time is very limited currently, few tests are done, so this commit
may very well introduce bugs.
- Known issue: Dim picture opacity does not change based on window
opacity, causing somehow annoying effects when a window fades off.
- Fix a bug that causes wrong focus detection result in Awesome and
maybe other window managers, when --use-ewmh-active-win is enabled and
_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW changes before the newly-focused window is mapped.
- Fix a typo that causes more than one window to stay focused after a
window destruction with --use-ewmh-active-win.
- Fix a bug that find_clientwin() incorrectly returns a window when
window ID 0 is passed to it.
- Check for window ID 0 in update_ewmh_active_win().
- Create a session_t structure, to get rid of most global variables and
let information pass in/out mostly through parameters. Huge changes,
so bugs may very well appear. I'm worried about resource leakages, in
particular.
- Add gcc attributes on various functions.
- Add Doxygen configuration.
- Replace much Xlib Bool with C99 bool.
- Add and adjust some comments.
- Drop unused parameters from some functions.
- Cache default Visual and Depth, mainly to shorten code.
- Rename some types, variables, and functions.
- Add win_ev_stop() and set_ignore_next() for convenience.
- Modify wid_get_prop_wintype() and wid_get_opacity_prop() to use
wid_get_prop().
- Rename --respect-attr-shadow to --respect-prop-shadow.
- Fix a memory leak in --respect-prop-shadow.
- Many other small changes.
