News in 1.1.0:
* Changed syntax for window cycling.
Instead of bitmask, the window cycling functions takes a list of
options enclosed in {} followed by pattern, similar to those used in
the apps file.
* Added new placement policies {Row,Col}MinOverlapPlacement. They
behave the same as {Row,Col}SmartPlacement when the window fits but
fall back on minimizing overlap with other windows instead of
CascadePlacement.
* New options to client patterns:
- focushidden
- fullscreen
- head
- iconhidden
- layer
- minimized
- maximized
- shaded
- stuck
- transient
- urgent
- workspace
- workspacename
* New commands:
- Attach
- ClientMenu
- Delay
- Focus
- ForEach
- GoToWindow
- If
- StartMoving
- StartResizing
- StartTabbing
- SetDecor
- SetTitle
- SetTitleDialog
- SetLayer
* New modifiers to keys file:
- OnToolbar
- OnWindow
- OnTitlebar
- Double
* New resources:
- session.screen<N>.tabs.usePixmap: <boolean>
- session.screen<N>.maxIgnoreIncrement: <boolean>
- session.screen<N>.noFocusWhileTypingDelay: <int>
- session.screen<N>.maxDisable{Move,Resize}: <boolean>
- session.screen<N>.slit.acceptKdeDockapps: <boolean>
* New Resize modes:
NearestEdge, Left, Right, Top, Bottom.
* Style changes:
New window.label.(un)focused.{justify,border{Color,Width}},
which fallback to window.label.{justify,border{Color,Width}} before
- this has the backwards-incompatible effect that
toolbar.iconbar.(un)focused.* fallback first to toolbar.iconbar.*
and then to window.label.* window.{justify,border{Color,Width}}
New style items:
window.(un)focus.border{Width,Color}
* New or updated translations:
- de_AT
- de_CH
- mk_MK
- zh_TW
* Added -list-commands command line option, which prints a list of
valid fluxbox commands.
Bug fixes:
* #1809786, Fixed gcc 2.96 compile problem.
* #1787345, Fix crash when cycling focus and window closes.
* #1836182, Fix division by 0 error when resize increments are set to
0 by an application.
* #1843325, Fix startup items in apps file with specified screen number
* #1786566, NLS entries for Mouse Tab Focus and Click Tab Focus were
switched.
* #1806327, Fix `About' menu item with tcsh.

Many thanks for the new version. One question: What does "windowmenu"
want to look like? When I ran make install, it hung up on installing a
file called windowmenu, because there wasn't any. I went ahead and set
up a blank file with that name in the data subdirectory, then reran make
install and all went well. But what should it contain?

well done! i just love these new features =)
unfortunately it's significantly slower. when i switch to another
workspace, i can even see the toolbar being populated... the windows
"icons" appear one by one and i can't work on until it finishes (ok,
it's not that long, a second or two... but it used to happen
instantly)
furthermore, fbpager wont work anymore, but as it's "not maintained"
that's ok, i'll find another pager...
