Not so Common Desktop Environment (NsCDE) 2.1
This release fixes some glitches and bugs accumulated during the transition from 1.X to 2.0, but it has also some new features:
-
Qt5 widgets now have dinamically generated Kvantum engine which can be choosen in Color Style Manager as alternative to the gtk2 connector oriented engine. This works well, but glitches may still be expected even after tests with many Qt5 and modern KDE applications. It will improve during the time. It is perfectly usable.
-
Key bindings set mechanism introduced. For now, there is only one set defined: default (nscde). This enabled NsCDE in future versions to implement standard key binding sets as IBM CUA standard or some other custom set.
-
Color templates for Konsole and Qterminal - Qt5 based terminals
-
New colormgr.local is simplified and can call functions from the /share/NsCDE/config_templates/colormgr.addons.
-
FVWM3: EwmhBaseStruts now follows Front Panel if it is moved across monitors.
-
FVWM3: default root setter fvwm-root can be replaced by specifying InfoStore variable rootsetcmd in user's ~/.NsCDE/NsCDE.conf
-
Sysinfo dialog now correctly displays NsCDE version after update and dynamic restart of FVWM.
-
Initial bootstrap wizard backs up user's GUI widget configurations such as gtkrc and qt5ct.conf if they exist before changing them.
-
Fix some polkit agents start/restart
-
Updated documentation
