- 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.
Type to change the text.
Resize if you need more space.
Alt+F4 to quit.
(And remember, focus follows mouse, but does not go through transparent
windows, so if you're in the right box, you'll be fine)
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.
- libc functions not implemented yet
- see `env` for an example of reading variables
- see `esh` for an example of how to set and maintain variables for
sending to other applications
Both of the above will be the basis for the libc implementation.
* Remove old login background [unused]
* Remove glock (graphical lock) [outdated]
* Have toolchain/activate set pkg-config variables
XXX: You will have unset PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR to configure native
software if you have activated the toolchain! Otherwise, your
pkgconfig information will be incorrect.
* Fixed a bug in the compositor where we would give window stack order 0
to applications that didn't ask for it because depths were assigned by
wid which starts at 0. Make it start at 1 instead, no chance of an app
getting the wrong stack order (this shoudn't have any effect on how
things work with a login app, since it grabs wid 0; but if you boot
directly into a non-login environment, minor timing issues can do odd
things.)
The compositor itself still needs work, but the compositing engine
within now does full blitting and is faster than the old method.
Transparency is now supported properly, though telling the compositor to
use it on a window will degrade performance. One terminal is usually
okay, and everything runs faster than it did before; two terminals is
pushing it; three will make you very sad. The stacking logic has also
been updated. Presumably, alpha blitting for transparent windows could
be done with SIMD instructions and be extremely fast.
All graphics libraries have also been updated to (hopefully) work
properly with alpha bits.
You can log out by exiting the terminal for now, this will later be "by
exiting the wallpaper application" or something to that effect, and will
be triggered by an on-screen button or keybinding.
