                          << FVWM2-ADE CHANGES >>

0.1 - 0.2 (12 October 1997)
---------------------------

    1. Removed extra lines reading

         Style "*" SloppyFocus

       from the bottom of the "styles" file.

    2. Added comments about the ModulePath in "README.INSTALL".

    3. Removed "/usr/local/include/pixmaps" from the PixmapPath in the
       "paths" file.

    4. Fixed grammatical errors in "README.USERS".

    (13 October 1997)

    5. Added title bar gradients to the "styles" file, and changed the
       title positioning to left-justify window titles.  Added
       instructions for getting rid of the gradients to
       "README.USERS".


0.2 - 0.3 (15 October 1997)
---------------------------

    1. Changed labels on the "AppButts" menu so that you could have
       the button bar centered and still get all the sub-menus to pop
       up comfortably, in most cases.

    2. Added a mechanism for centering the button bar.  It is not
       terribly automatic, but it is a start.  The new macros are
       FVWMBUTTONSWIDTH, SCREENWIDTH, and FVWMBUTTONSXPOS.  They are
       located in the button-bar setups in the bbarschemes directory,
       and implemented in the modules/FvwmButtons file.  They are
       also, you'll notice, commented out by default.  Instructions
       for making them work are in "README.USERS".

    3. Narrowed the margins of the README files.

    4. Changed the default action of the "Fvwm Tools" button from
       FvwmConfig to FvwmIdent, in accordance with the removal of
       FvwmConfig from fvwm2 version 2.0.46.  Also removed all
       occurrences of FvwmConfig from the "menus" file.  Some users
       may still want FvwmConfig, but the policy here is this:  a Red
       Hat 4.x user who has fvwm2 on their system (installed as an RPM
       package) should be able to make something happen with every
       button and menu item.

    5. Added execution of the "top" program to the "Monitors" menu in
       "menus".

    (18 October 1997)

    6. Added a mechanism for controlling the length of the label on
       the "Terminals" button.  For some users, this label was
       defaulting to "localhost.localdomain" and creating an obscenely
       wide button bar.  Now, only characters to the left of the first
       "." in the hostname are kept, and the label defaults to
       "localhost" if the remaining hostname is more than nine
       characters long.


0.3 - 0.4 (20 October 1997)
---------------------------

    1. Made the procedure for centering the button bar a little more
       automatic and sophisticated.  All changes are in the files
       inside the "bbarschemes" directory.

    2. Added a macro for borderwidth in the "bbarschemes" files.  This
       addition is useful in controlling the positioning of
       FvwmButtons, and it also gives the user a little control over
       the look of things.

    3. Added an icon style for the "top" program, and removed the
       ineffective style setting for the "QuitVerify" window.

    4. Removed the calculation of the XHOST macro from system.fvwm2rc,
       and placed it it the files in the "bbarschemes" directory,
       giving the user access if he or she wants to override the
       default method for setting XHOST.  Also, the procedure for
       setting XHOST has been tailored to the different arrangements
       in "bbarschemes".  For the "col-48x48" setup, XHOST defaults to
       "localhost" if the hostname is more than nine characters long.
       In the "col-32x32" setup, XHOST defaults to "local" if the
       hostname is more than eight characters long, providing for a
       more narrow button bar.

    5. In "menus", shortened the text in the submenus of the FvwmII
       menu, and removed redundancy in fvwm restarting and quitting
       from the main menu.

    6. In "col-32x32", inside the "bbarschemes" directory, removed the
       quotes and extra spaces from the upper application button label
       (xplaycd).


0.4 - 0.5 (24 October 1997)
---------------------------

    1. Finished the setup for color-backdrops, which I never bothered
       with before.

    2. Added the redhat-letters.xpm icon to the "icons/misc"
       directory.  It is nice to use as a tiled pixmap background,
       which you can set up by following the instructions in section
       IV.I of README.USERS.

    3. Changed a few things in the color setups in the "colorschemes"
       directory, so the backdrops would look good.

    4. Corrected mistakes and typos in README.USERS.


0.5 - 0.6 (November 1997)
-------------------------

    1. This was a pretty serious update, and it changed too often for me
       to keep track of everything.  Sorry.

0.6 - 0.7 (December 1997)
-------------------------

    1. Fixed dynamic user vs. root menus in the "System Tools"
       category.  Now root gets a more substantial "Root Tools"
       submenu as opposed to the minimal "User Tools" submenu.  This
       effort was attempted in version 0.6, but it was broken until
       now.

    2. Added to styles so that all Red Hat configuration tools, when
       iconified, appear as a cool Red Hat logo.

    3. Removed specific remote hosts that I use from the "Hosts" menu in
       menus.  Now only two remain.


0.7 - 0.8 (May 1998)
--------------------

    1. Was not very successful in documenting the ungodly number of
       changes made for this upgrade.  The important facts:  version 0.8
       is different enough from previous versions that you will probably
       have trouble if you use your old configuration files (sorry), and
       the button bar configuration in version 0.8 is much more
       sophisticated than it was before.  I'll try to list the major
       changes that I can remember:

    2. Updated all the button bar configuration tools, replacing
       FvwmForms items with wish scripts.  Many many changes, too
       numerous to document, were made to accomodate the new
       arrangement.  The new tools include an FvwmPager configuration
       tool that allows for multiple desktops.

    3. Changed the method of launching xman in the buttons and menus.
       If you define a MANPATH environment variable in .bashrc, then
       xman, when launched from a menu or button, will use the correct
       path in search of man pages.  This is only helpful if you use
       xdm and runlevel 5.  If you launch X after logging in at the
       console, X is run from within a shell, and all the parent
       shell's environment variables are inherited by X.  If logins
       are handled by xdm, however, then X doesn't inherit any of the
       shell's environment variables.  This measure is not perfect
       (since the correct results still depend on setting the MANPATH
       environment variable in .bashrc), but it helps.

    3. Fixed the changemacro script so that slashes (/) are properly
       escaped.  This will be very important when e.g. the full path
       to an executable is used in a macro defined in
       ~/.fvwm2-ade/bbar.m4.
