Below are some highlights of the changes for the recent releases of dmenu, dwm, st and tabbed, see the git logs for all details:
General small Makefile improvements, rationale being: just be verbose and show what is done: do not abstract/hide details from the user/developer. Respect (more) the package manager and build system flags (CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, etc).
dwm:
- Improvements to signal handling.
- Fix: Avoid missing events when a keysym maps to multiple keycodes.
- Reduce memory usage for reading the lines.
- Fix: X11 BadMatch error when embedding on some windows.
st:
- Fix: bounds checks of dc.col.
- Fix: buffer overflow when handling long composed input.
- Ignore C1 control characters in UTF-8 mode.
- Improvements to cell handling and wide characters.
- Default config: decrease the default minlatency.
- Various other terminal fixes and compatibility improvements.
- Fix: faulty zombie process reaping.
- Improvements to signal handling.
- Improve compatibility with compiling on older systems such as Slackware 11.
Thanks to all contributors who submitted patches.
