Window Maker 0.92.0 is available for download from http://windowmaker.org/

This release includes the following fixes/new features:

- fixed crash with info panel and alt-tabbing
- allow disable of switch panel when SwitchPanelImages=None
- added X Input Methods support in WINGs
- fixed issues with compiling on Solaris with openwin
- reduced minimum required version number for the Xft library to 2.1.0
- fixed some compilation issues with gcc-2.9x
- removed --with-appsdir option and replaced it with --with-gnustepdir. Also,
  default installation path (for non GNUstep users) is now $(prefix)/bin
- fixed bug with infinite loop in some circumstances in fitText() in WINGs
- fixed to allow parallel builds on SMP systems using make -j
- applied .AppInfo --> Library path rename patch
- added code to automatically update the icon paths from the old .AppInfo
  style to the new Library/WindowMaker style in WMWindowAttributes when
  Window Maker starts to make transition transparent for users.
- fixed issue with window being moved by 1 pixel up and left when the window
  move was initiated by the client
- improved hide/unhide animation for applications with multiple windows
  (only animate the active window hiding/unhiding, which makes Window Maker
  faster and more responsive for such applications). This also makes the
  restart operation much faster.
- fixed bug with windows shrinking to very small sizes when Unmaximize was
  used on them, after they were closed in a maximized state.
- fixed bug with restoring maximized state from NetWM atoms.
- fixed issue with GNUstep applications losing focus when all their windows
  are closed and there remains only their menu (Matt Rice <[email protected]>)
- try fixed font for the technical drawing font if helvetica-12 is not
  available to avoid crashing (Timo Juhani Lindfors <[email protected]>)
- new algorithm for placing miniwindows after unhiding the application they
  belong to, that works without auto-arranging the icons, while still avoiding
  multiple icons in the same spot by moving the miniwindows to a new slot if
  their old slot was occupied in the meantime.
- double clicking an appicon will also raise the miniwindows that belong to
  that application to the front (along with the normal windows).
