There are both some good changes and some terribly hacky changes in this
commit.
- Server uses a different struct than client now for windows, so
arbitrary compositor things like effect parameters can be added
without having to rebuild everything. That's good.
- Client window structs no longer attempt to track or use window
locations. That's good.
- Windows do not destroy in response to the destory command, but rather,
a special animation is triggered; the end state for this animation
calls the actually window destruction code. That's a hack.
- Animations are based on rendered frames, not on time. That's a hack.
* Dumb bounding box top_at logic replaced with select buffer
* Select buffer rendered through cairo with AA disabled
Using rectangles for window shapes - this should easily
be expandable to 1bpp bitmaps. Currently, the select buffer
is very inefficient, using twice the space it needs (plus,
it's double buffered, so in reality, 4x the space needed),
however, it's also very accurate and fast, and I like that.
* Window rotation is controlled through Ctrl+Shift+{z,x,c} where
z = rotate 1 degree left
x = rotate 1 degree right
c = reset rotation
* Input is remapped based on window rotation, so you *can* use the
draw app, and it is totally epic.
- Desktop icons use the shadowing
- The login screen uses shadows instead of poorly-executed strokes
- The blur_test app has been updated to show multiple blur levels,
but does not use the library function.
Kernel driver sends raw scancodes, compositor or terminal handle the
rest. Support for F* keys will be added soon, in the mean time userspace
applications can know about the status of modifiers (control, shift,
alt, and super).
Compositor actions have been changed to Alt+Left Click for move and
Alt+Middle Click for resize. I'll work on adding more mouse events once
I get them to be faster (they're annoyingly slow at the moment... I want
more accuracy and less latency).
Also add functionality to the terminal to toggle it on and off.
There's a small, but nice-to-have performance increase from disabling
alpha transparency in the terminal.
Also, the display server sets DISPLAY=... to the shmem endpoint for the
compositor, so if getenv("DISPLAY") returns a pointer, you can assume
you are in a graphical environment, instead of having to rely on things
like arguments. Good for those applications that want to be able to run
both full-screen and windowed.
* Patched crt0 to support a pre_main
* pre_main sets up environment variables, can do other things later,
but then just jumps to main with the same arguments.
* Updated a bunch of apps to pass environment variables around.
