│ Release notes for i3 v4.4 │
|
|
|
|
|
└──────────────────────────────┘

|
|
This is the i3 v4.4. This version is considered stable. All users of i3 are
|
|
|
|
|
strongly encouraged to upgrade.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An important under-the-hood change is that we now use the same parser
|
|
|
|
|
infrastructure for the configuration file as we do for the commands. This
|
|
|
|
|
makes maintenance and contributions easier and lets us finally escape the
|
|
|
|
|
insanity that is bison/flex.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In case there is a bug and your existing config does not work as expected
|
|
|
|
|
anymore, try using the --force-old-config-parser-v4.4-only flag when starting
|
|
|
|
|
i3 and please report a bug. This option will only be present in v4.4, so if
|
|
|
|
|
you don’t report a bug, you are willingly breaking your own config file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Apart from that, there have been several little fixes and additions which make
|
|
|
|
|
i3 pay more attention to detail, particularly in the floating window area of
|
|
|
|
|
the code. See the changes/bugfixes list for more information.
