Dogcows Code - chaz/openbox/blob - TODO

   1 Openbox TODO list:
   2 * get translations for new "Hide Toolbar"
   3
   4 * make Escape key cancel moving/resizing a window
   5
   6 * add asserts all throughout the code to catch bugs.
   7
   8 * new configuration class which handles the X db, with better functionality.
   9   i.e. make changes in the configuraiton save instantly, and stop saving over
  10   the config file on shutdown/reconfig.
  11
  12 * convert char *'s to stl's std::string.
  13
  14 * make the toolbar a compile-time option so it can be disabled entirely.
  15
  16 * make it possible to cuycle workspaces by moving the mouse past the edge of
  17   the desktop?
  18
  19 * make the wheel mouse functionality optional?
  20
  21 * add a modifer key which will scroll workspaces with the mousewheel even when
  22   not on the root window?
  23
  24 * NETWM support (see http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/wm-spec/).
  25
  26 * handle keyboard input natively instead of relying on an external program?
  27
  28 * remappable bindings for keyboard input and for mouse input.
  29
  30 * snap to edges, all edges, including window edges
  31
  32 * port bbconf to Openbox.
  33
  34 * add a close button to root/pinned menus?
  35
  36 * add atoms for most everything in the window manager
  37   e.g. add _BLACKBOX_STYLE and _BLACKBOX_MENU atoms so that bbtools, bbconf,
  38   etc. can get the current path to the style in use and menu.
  39
  40 * when workspace name is greater than the width of its text area the toolbar
  41   gets very ugly. I think waht's really needed is a new toolbar entirely, which
  42   can let apps dock in it (these would, of course then, be very tiny apps).
  43
  44 * get translations of Openbox into more languages.
  45
  46 * window stacking layers (i.e. always on top/bottom).
  47
  48 * draw non-opaque move/resize frames using the style's borderWidth.
  49
  50 * better support for window groups.
  51
  52 * support for Xft, to anti-alias text.
  53
  54 * suppert for XRENDER, and use it for making window decorations/menus/etc
  55   translucent.
  56
  57 * fix any existant memory leaks, this is on-going forever.
