Spectrwm (previously known as scrotwm) is a small dynamic tiling window
manager for X11. It tries to stay out of the way so that valuable screen
real estate can be used for much more important stuff. It has sane
defaults and does not require one to learn a language to do any
configuration. It was written by hackers for hackers and it strives to be
small, compact and fast.
It was largely inspired by xmonad and dwm. Both are fine products but suffer
from things like: crazy-unportable-language-syndrome, silly defaults,
asymmetrical window layout, "how hard can it be?" and good old NIH.
Nevertheless dwm was a phenomenal resource and many good ideas and code was
borrowed from it. On the other hand xmonad has great defaults, key bindings
and xinerama support but is crippled by not being written in C.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

x11-wm/spectrwm: fix build on GCC architectures
Switch to newer GCC to workaround -Werror:
/usr/local/include/xcb/xinput.h:3072: warning: this decimal constant is unsigned
only in ISO C90
Adding -Wno-error doesn't fix it, it's still overwritten by -Werror.
MFH: 2020Q3 (fix build blanket)
Add USES=xorg USES=gl, ports categories x
Add USES=xorg and USES=gl to ports in categories starting with 'x'
While here, try to sprinkle other USES (mostly gnome and sdl) as needed.
Fix out of bounds memory read when reading bar input.
Add patch from upstream git that fixes an out of bounds read and possible
write if the bar action script returns a NULL as the first character.
It is unclear if this can cause any security issues, but I feel it's prudent
to fix the issue.
MFH: 2017Q4
Update to 3.1.0
Changelog:
Add +R for region index to bar formatting.
Add new bar_color_selected and bar_font_color_selected options.
Add new 'ws_empty' action.
Enable padding in the bar_format using '_' character
Handle MappingNotify during startup.
Reset SIGPIPE before execvp().
Correct size for WM_STATE
This release also fixes a bunch of bugs, linux build and man page nits.
FreeBSD specific changes:
Thhe screenshot.sh script is now installed into the examples dir,
instead of bin/. If you are using it, you need to update your
configuration file.
I've reworked the examples handling and hid all examoles behind the
EXAMPLES knob (on by default). This is mostly some example
configurations, but I also added the baraction.sh script which can be
used to do fancier stuff with the status bar.
Remove indefinite articles and trailing periods from COMMENT, plus
minor COMMENT typos and surrounding whitespace fixes. A few Makefiles
where not included as they contain Latin-1 characters that break
the Phabricator workflow. Category X.

NEW XORG ON FREEBSD 9-STABLE AND 10-STABLE
This update switches over to use the new xorg stack by default on FreeBSD 9
and 10 stable, on osversions where vt(9) is available.
It is still possible to use the old stack by specifying WITHOUT_NEW_XORG in
/etc/make.conf .
FreeBSD 8-STABLE and released versions of FreeBSD still use
the old version.
A package repository with binary packages for new xorg will
be available soon.
This patch also contains updates of libxcb and related ports, pixman, as well
