Release notes for i3 v3.δ
|
||||||
|
-----------------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is the third version (3.δ, transcribed 3.d) of i3. It is considered stable.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This release features tabbing and some more advanced modifications of the
|
||||||
|
stacking window (see the user’s guide), vim-like marks, support for the
|
||||||
|
urgency hint, horizontal resizing of containers (finally), modes (which can
|
||||||
|
make your keybindings a lot simpler), an unlimited amount of workspaces
|
||||||
|
and several bugfixes (see below for the complete list of changes).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Furthermore, the configuration file parsing has been rewritten to use a
|
||||||
|
lex/yacc based lexer/parser. This makes our configuration file more easy to
|
||||||
|
understand and more flexible from the point of view of a developer. For some
|
||||||
|
of the new features, you already need the new lexer/parser. To not break your
|
||||||
|
current configuration, however, the old parser is still included and used by
|
||||||
|
default. I strongly recommend you to add the flag -l when starting i3 and
|
||||||
|
switch your configuration file to the new lexer/parser. This should only
|
||||||
|
require minor changes, if at all. In the next released version of i3, the
|
||||||
|
old configuration file parsing will be removed!
|
||||||

|
