│ Release notes for i3 v4.11 │
|
||
└────────────────────────────┘
|
||
|
||
This is i3 v4.11. This version is considered stable. All users of i3 are
|
||
strongly encouraged to upgrade.
|
||
|
||
Aside from plenty of new features, there are several changes that might result
|
||
in behavioral changes, depending on your specific configuration and
|
||
environment. As usual, we tried hard to keep the current behavior, and when we
|
||
changed behavior, we strongly believe it’s for the better.
|
||
|
||
Keyboard binding handling has been made more correct, for details see:
|
||
