manpage: improve locale setup in example .xsession (Thanks Harald König)
Harald mentioned he was surprised about the locales we recommend in the
.xsession example, so I’ve re-investigated.
Here is the test program I have used:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <locale.h>
int main() {
/* SUSv2 setlocale(3) says:
* Internationalised programs must call setlocale() to initiate
* a specific language operation. This can be done by calling
* setlocale() as follows: */
setlocale(LC_ALL, "");
printf("LC_NUMERIC is %s\n", setlocale(LC_NUMERIC, NULL));
}

fix resizing floating windows by height
When resizing floating windows, changing the height was not correctly
handled. This commit fixes that and adds testcases for shrinking and
growing the width and height of floating windows.
Bugfix: don’t change tabbed/stacked cons to splitv/splith layout (Thanks Merovius)
To automagically do the right thing when rotating monitors with regards
to splith/splitv layout (depending on width/height of the monitor), we
change the orientation of existing workspaces and the first child.
If that first child happens to be a stacked/tabbed con, we cannot change
the layout unconditionally (previously, the orientation was not in the
layout, so we never noticed this problem).
i3 --moreversion: use readlink /proc/$pid/exe instead of realpath(argv[0])
The latter is actually wrong. For example, when running i3
--moreversion, it will print $(pwd)/i3 instead of $(which i3). In my
previous tests, this coincidentally was the same.
logging: make libi3 use verboselog()/errorlog(), provide it in each caller
While this is a bit ugly, it makes the log messages end up where they
are supposed to: in the shmlog/stdout in case of i3 and on stdout in
case of utilities such as i3-input
This changes the SHM log format, it doesn’t use 0-bytes to separate
entries anymore. Instead of using lots of printf() calls in i3-dump-log,
we now do precisely one big write().
So, to be clear: i3-dump-log and i3 both need to be upgraded.
Mismatching versions will lead to garbage output (no crashes of i3, just
garbage output).
The -f flag uses an inter-process pthread_cond_t in the shared memory
header to broadcast the arrival of new messages to all i3-dump-log
processes. This internally uses futexes and thus doesn’t even mean a
kernel call in most cases. inter-process pthread_cond_ts require NPTL
(the Native Posix Thread Library, introduce in Linux 2.6).
Connects to i3 to find out the currently running version. Useful since it
might be different from the version compiled into this binary (maybe the
user didn’t correctly install i3 or forgot te restart it).
See also commit 0e752070ac2bed02d0858bbc450ddcee36e3b9b5, which broke
source code listings in gdb unless you cd into i3/src. This should give
us best of both :-).
When starting i3 initially (and after each change to the connected
outputs), this function fixes the resolution of the __i3
pseudo-output. When that resolution is not set to a function which
shares a common divisor with every active output’s resolution,
floating point calculation errors will lead to the scratchpad window
moving when shown repeatedly.
Since we advertise _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW support (but only set the
corresponding atom currently), it makes sense to also support the
ClientMessage. Apps such as Gajim use it to set focus to the roster
window when clicking on the tray icon for example.
Compilers store the path with which they were called in the debug
symbols. Therefore, this will make backtraces show something like
../i3-4.2/src/main.c instead of src/main.c.

ipc: implement GET_VERSION to find out the i3 version
This is useful for third-party scripts which require certain features
and want to error out cleanly when they are run with an old i3 version.
Additionally, i3 --version might be different from what’s actually
running (an old version of the binary), so i3-msg -t get_version will be
the best way to figure out the i3 version you are actually running from
this commit on.
With this commit, the "default" layout is replaced by the splith and
splitv layouts. splith is equivalent to default with orientation
horizontal and splitv is equivalent to default with orientation
vertical.
The "split h" and "split v" commands continue to work as before, they
split the current container and you will end up in a split container
with layout splith (after "split h") or splitv (after "split v").
To change a splith container into a splitv container, use either "layout
splitv" or "layout toggle split". The latter command is used in the
default config as mod+l (previously "layout default"). In case you have
"layout default" in your config file, it is recommended to just replace
it by "layout toggle split", which will work as "layout default" did
before when pressing it once, but toggle between horizontal/vertical
when pressing it repeatedly.
The rationale behind this commit is that it’s cleaner to have all
parameters that influence how windows are rendered in the layout itself
rather than having a special parameter in combination with only one
layout. This enables us to change existing split containers in all cases
without breaking existing features (see ticket #464). Also, users should
feel more confident about whether they are actually splitting or just
changing an existing split container now.
As a nice side-effect, this commit brings back the "layout toggle"
feature we once had in i3 version 3 (see the userguide).
AFAIK, it is safe to use in-place restart to upgrade into versions
after this commit (switching to an older version will break your layout,
though).
This is necessary because the autobuilder uses a dist tarball to build
i3 from. If we store $VERSION, the autobuiluder binaries will not run in
developer mode, thus defeating the purpose of developer mode.
