xmonad v0.14 Release Notes

Release Date: 2018-07-30 // over 5 years ago
  • 🐛 Bug Fixes

    • The state file that xmonad uses while restarting itself is now removed after it is processed. This fixes a bug that manifested in several different ways:

      • Names of old workspaces would be resurrected after a restart
      • Screen sizes would be wrong after changing monitor configuration (#90)
      • spawnOnce stopped working (xmonad/xmonad-contrib#155)
      • Focus did not follow when moving between workspaces (#87)
      • etc.
    • Recover old behavior (in 0.12) when focusFollowsMouse == True: the focus follows when the mouse enters another workspace but not moving into any window.

    • Compiles with GHC 8.4.1

    • Restored compatability with GHC version prior to 8.0.1 by removing the dependency on directory version 1.2.3.
