+1.0.0pre12:
+ deprecate -p to do nothing, except print a message.
+ scan /proc/[0-9]*/stat for imwheel process to kill on -k
+ (* Security Fix *)
+ http://www.caughq.org/advisories/CAU-2004-0002.txt
+ fixed make distcheck
+
+1.0.0pre11:
+ avoid bad events that cause an infinite loop!
+
+1.0.0pre10:
+ fix @Exclude (argh)
+ this allows xv->grab to function normally again, with the right config.
+ when configuring, error when we can't link to X11
+ apparently too many idiots can't read warnings.
+ at this point all bugs are fixed and all acceptable additions to functionality
+ are finished...
+ if there are no reports within a few weeks, 1.0.0 will be released with
+ full documentation updates, and imwheel itself will be put to rest,
+ except for bug fixes.
+ (until I decided to do a total rewrite in a simpler, yet more powerful, manner.)
+
+1.0.0pre9:
+ default action is now @Repeat,
+ so wheel-active applications get the right stuff
+ imwheel is meant for OLD apps...so in keeping with that
+ now that most modern apps can handle the wheel for real
+ it's time to remove the builtin keys...
+ however the old method of default keys is still available
+ via the -K option
+ -K now uses doWA routine, just like user configured actions do
+
+1.0.0pre8:
+ added Button# syntax for input filter in imwheelrc
+ like Up can now be called Button4, Down can be Button5, etc...
+ (Left=6, Right=7, Thumb1=8, Thumb2=9, like always...)
+ squashed a segfault
+ fixed UNGRAB window name, class, and resource name resolution (used to get "(null)"s)
+ gpm is no longer built by default
+ gpm's docs are no longer built by default
+
+1.0.0pre7:
+ search parent windows for a name, this should remove the need for -f.
+
+1.0.0pre6:
+ fix -b
+ With some help from Malte S. Stretz <mss AT msquadrat.de>
+ example: -b 4589
+ will use button 4 and 5 as Up and Down like normal
+ will use button 8 and 9 as Left and Right, remapped
+ button 6 and 7 are ignored.
+ all imwheel entries that are Thumb1 and Thumb2 events will ne discarded
+ fix window name lookup, now uses XAtoms
+ Thanks Mark Baker <homer1 AT adelphia.net>
+ first tries _NET_WM_NAME(UTF8_STRING) if these Atoms are present
+ - whether UTF8 works in the imwheelrc...I do not know.
+ if that's NULL then it tries WM_NAME(STRING) if these Atoms are present
+ if that's still NULL then then it tries the old method...
+ avoid a possible segfault...dunno if it happens in the real world
+
+1.0.0pre5:
+ added --auto-repeat inspired by a debian patch from
+ Thanks Darren Salt <linux AT youmustbejoking.demon.co.uk>
+ http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=173964&msg=1
+ the code is untested, so all you stick users out there better test the stuff
+ and help debug it too!
+ if you set a repeat number to 0 for an action in the rc file,
+ then it will do autorepeat for as long as that button is held, I hope.
+ hid some warnings/infos/perrors behind -d debugging mode.
+ moved the system imwheelrc to /etc/X11/imwheel/imwheelrc

1.0.0.pre4:
- "\(root\)" works for non-wheel-fifos, as long as @Exclude isn't used.
- instead use :
- "\(root\)"
- ,Up,Button4
- ,Down,Button5
- etc... in your imwheelrc.
- added mid-sequence keyups, put a - befreo the keysym for a keyup like this:
- ".*"
- ,Up,Shift_L|R|-R|-Shift_L|O|-O|F|-F|L|-L|Return
- this will type "Rofl" and press return, in all apps, on wheel up.
- make sure not to press something twice in a row without releasing it.

0.9.9:
- Documentation needs updating with the features from this release...argh!
- Made some more comments in the stderr output...plus hints.
- Fixed a segfault on freeing a few strings that were not allocated.
- Added -g option for focus event tracking, so we at least try to regrab
- whenever the focused (ungrabbed) window is left.
- this was code from Patrick Reinelt <preinelt@kullen.rwth-aachen.de>
- -g toggles it on an off, but it is on by default, as it may help some
- people out there.
- pre6
- This may be the last update to the 0.9.9, pending any bugs.
- CVS dirs removed in make dist process...
- Upgraded GPM to version 1.19.3 and generated the patch as usual.
- Added Artec UM530P driver (-t um530p) to gpm.
- This is the imps2 init code without the second half.
- Thanks to: Vicente Aguilar <vaguilar@linuxfreak.com>
- Fixed some references to O_SYNC for FreeBSD users, who don't have it!
- Reduced the fontspec in cfg.c to be more forgiving, may avert a SegFault!
- Added an RPM Source spec file...it might work, I dunno!
- imwheelrc now installs into /etc for "make install"
- Added -Igetopt for when included getopt is used.
- Added a transpose (-x) option to swap the X/Y axis.
- Useful for S-48 OEM gpm driver, also use -b 54 option...
- This is for fifo use only, which is working fine in XFree86 4.0.1
- Added more sanity checks in configure.in
- getopt.h missing causes the included one to be used
- XFree86 only checked for Linux systems
- Added Linux Touch Panel Drivers for the Fujitsu Lifebook B112/B142
- GPM driver to imwheel's gpm (-t b112)
- Thanks to Harald Hoyer <Harald.Hoyer@Parzelle.De> <HarryH@Royal.Net>
- who had the patches for gpm on his site http://parzelle.de/
- Added Logitech OEM S-48 & Firstmouse+ to gpm (-t zilog)
- This works for a Logitech OEM S-48 that I received as a donation
- Thanks to A. Norman <norman@physics.wm.edu> posting his sourcecode!
- His site is at:
- http://www.physics.wm.edu/~norman/Mouse_Diag/index.html
- Added a script to convert the Right-handedly oriented imwheelrc file to
- Left handed (converts _L to _R in the imwheelrc)
- It's simple so patterns matching the _L string will be changed to _R
- watch out for that I suppose...but I haven't seen anything like
- that in other places of the rc file.
- The script is called lefty.sh, execute it before "make install" if you
- are a left handed person or you prefer the right side control keys.
- pre5
- Replaced strsep usage for intel solaris people.
- Fixed the fact that a missing "(null)" section would cause a segfault.
- Fixed an UNGRAB(Exclude) handling code error.
- Optimized the UNGRAB/GRAB search, now we don't go looking for a reason not
- to UNGRAB all the time!
- Added --buttons or -b option, whichs allows you to set the button mapping.
- Default mapping looks like this: "45678"
- You can limit it to just 4 and 5 by doing: imwheel -b 45
- This also allows some people to fix the mapping for weirdo mice ;)
- Here's a reference table for what the numbers mean:
-
- index default button action in imwheel
- 1 4 Wheel/Stick Up
- 2 5 Wheel/Stick Down
- 3 6 Wheel/Stick Left
- 4 7 Wheel/Stick Right
- 5 8 Thumb Button
-
- So that "imwheel -b 86754" does the following:
- Button 8 is Wheel/Stick Up to imwheel
- Button 6 is Wheel/Stick Down to imwheel
- Button 7 is Wheel/Stick Left to imwheel
- Button 5 is Wheel/Stick Right to imwheel
- Button 4 is Thumb Button to imwheel
- Use xev while NOT running imwheel (run "imwheel -kq" first) to find out
- what buttons are what on your mouse!
- Fixed the non-functional Configure Dialog (XGrabButton wasn't working right)
- pre4
- Fixed == tests to = in configure.in, per many complaints. (worked for me ;)
- Updated gpm to version 1.19.2, people kept asking...
- pre3
- Fixed security bug, where a user may symlink to a file they cannot open as
- themselves, then get the first line of that file using the debug mode.
- This could allow the root password of the shadow to be exposed for any
- user who has access to a set-uid-root imwheel.
- Apparently Mandrake (and others perhaps) use a suid-root perl script to
- execute the imwheel program, perhaps meaning to be more safe. In
- reality I do not install imwheel as root, nor do I actively support it,
- nor take any responsibility for those who do install it as a suid-root
- or suid any other user, and who then have a security breach. I'm also
- happy that my friend, Rob C. Ludwick, pointed the hole out to me, as
- no-one on the mailing list he saw this being discussed on bothered to
- write me! Also, about the distros suid perl script jazz...this is the
- second time you've caused me pain, and I'm bitter, and I have no remorse
- for you if you shall perish one million deaths through your foolishness
- of suid-root wrappers.
- One other note, imwheel already DOES check that any process it is looking
- to kill is actually an imwheel process. If this needs improvement
- then somebody send in a patch. I currently consider the possibility
- impossible. (Yes, I like English!)
- pre2
- Added @Priority to allow for people who want visible control over what is
- more important than whatever else. See imwheelrc for more. (tested)
- Fixed the @Exclude bug, where if @Exclude was used with a ".*" regex then
- all windows were excluded, even those defined in the imwheelrc.
- The new priority command can help users tell imwheel how much they'd
- really like to exclude and what doesn't need to be, otherwise position
- in the imwheelrc is all that makes the difference now. (tested)
- Fixed the configuration errors, where variables were unquoted and spaces
- may have freaked m4 and the shell out!
- pre1
- fixed getenv("HOME") type security hole. (tested)
- inclusion of imwheelrc, but no "make install" installation yet.

0.9.8
- finished configure "make dist" handling of unselected stuff.
- seems to work well for all beta testers (at least 5 people wrote back)
- pre4
- fixed @Exclude (tested myself of course, waiting for feedback)
- fixed PIDFILE crap from making the configure.in wrongly...
- hey - I'm still learning autoconfig and friends... ;)
- pre3
- configure (full autoconf, automake, autoheader dealie)
- updated gpm to version 1.19.0
- added -v and --version option, for just the version header of the help
- there will be NO MORE none gpm releases until gpm includes my patch in the
- main distribution! configure doesn't play nice doing dual distros...
- pre2
- updated gpm to version 1.18.1
- pre1
- tfxmms - in gpm - the Serial Trackman FX marble button 4 as stick motion
- toggle and complete mouse driver.
- sensitivity option in imwheel - uses a summation of motion after
- thresholding, to determine when to go!
- @Repeat command (like @Exclude) in imwheelrc files - resends the button to X
- this may not work for non-gpm wheelfifo users, who should rather use
- @Exclude for now.
- minor code cleanups - no bugfixes there! just making code better looking.

0.9.7
- Added --force option to force usage of event data instead of looking for
- the focused window using XGetInputFocus. This may work better for some
- window managers than others. In fvwm2 I do not use the force option,
- whereas in window maker it may be mandatory. I know it's silly but when
- you use the force option you are using the ICCCM method of grabbing the
- current client window, whereas the deffault operation uses the original
- XGetInputFocus method. All you need to know is that if the debug output
- keeps showing the the window title as null, then toggle this option and
- it may work correctly. Please report back to me on window managers and
- whether the force option was required or not to work correctly with
- imwheel. This method was sparked by Brian Craft <bcboy@cisco.com>.
- Fixed a bug where if the winid was not being copied into a correctly sized
- space, therefore causing segfaults when reading an rc like this...
-
- ".*\.[pP][dD][fF]"
- Alt_L,Up,Up
-
- Note that the window match string is longer than the keydef line. This
- is when this bug would rear it's ugly head. It was a dead-in-the-head
- bug that I'm sorry I ever caused to anyone who suffered while making a
- customized rc file. I'm just amazed that I never ran into it in my time!
- This bug was noted by Karoly Segesdi <vrm@scene-hu.com> if not
- by others as well! (But he got me closest to finding the problem by
- giving me an imwheelrc file that consistently caused a segfault)
-
- Fixed a bug where imwheel whould exit when the fifo it was reading for the
- wheel-fifo method was closed and reopened and then written from the other
- side (from gpm or jam restarting).
- Upgraded to gpm-1.18.0
- Added marblefx support to gpm from Ric Klaren <klaren@cs.utwente.nl>,
- untested as I don't have a marblefx. It looked good though!
- Added Primax CyberNavigator [1] mouse to gpm from Alexios Chouchoulas
- <alexios@vennea.demon.co.uk>. This is also untested for the same reason.
- Added left handers Method#1 xmodmap config sent in from
- Marc-Aurèle DARCHE <ma.darche@stellarx.com> to README and manpage.
- And of course other misc. bugfixes, etc...that I've forgotten over time!

0.9.6
- Initial support & drivers (gpm & imwheel) for IBM ScrollPoint Mouse
- It is the mm+ps2 mouse type in gpm
- the IBM ScrollPoint PS/2 mouse uses the MouseManPlus Protocol in XFree86
- Support for up and down only for now...I must do a bit before other
- directions are considered! (for stick type mice thingers.)
- Pressing continuously will only result in one action. Release and press
- again to scroll another notch. (the regular scroll events come in too
- fast to be useful yet...)
- THANKS!!!!! TO Felix Klock for the ScrollPoint Mouse he MAILED ME!!!
- This driver is due to the initiative and sacrifice of a few bucks to get
- support for a mouse this guy loves...and from what I've read on newgroups
- many others also love! Well you owe the possibility of this driver to
- Bryan for mailing me a mouse to be able to actually hack on the real
- thing. Now continued support is guaranteed as well!
- mail your appreciation to Felix S Klock at pnkfelix@mit.edu
- He paid $23 or so for the mouse plus shipping to me (with normal 32cent
- stamps no less...due to the effects of the 1cent price increase in stamps
- I'm sure he was kinda glad to be rid of some of his 32cent stash to make
- room for the 33cent ones!) Please consider sending him a dollar for his
- effort since you are reaping the rewards... (and hey send me a dollar! :)
- Added mdump, a program to dump the mouse port, and anything else you want
- with a bitwise breakdown and a 3 byte per line dump. Other interpretation
- is added for assumptions of what may be happening with mouse motions.
- I used this program to create the mm+ps2 driver for gpm. It is not
- installed by 'make install' so copy it yourself if you're interested.
- the first arg on the command-line is taken to be the path of the mouse
- device, which defaults to /dev/mouse. The second arg is how many bytes
- to dump per grab. This defaults to 3 but 4 is another common value to try.
- The third arg is not parsed but if present the first byte will be bit
- dumped like the rest of the bytes in a packet.
- You can also use this program to see the MHz speed for your mouse!
- e.g.: mdump /dev/psaux 4 1 (for imps2 mouse device type)
- mdump /dev/psaux 3 1 (for ps2/mouseman+ mouse device types)
- Added to mouse-mode setup programs for the intellimouse and mouseman plus.
- running these programs sends the right control codes to the mouse to
- activate the intellimouse or mouseman plus protocol. The intellimouse and
- mouseman plus both default to ps2 mode. the intellimouse and mouse man
- plus both support the imps2 protocol. some mouse man plus type mice may
- not be intellimouse capable, but the IBM scrollpoint was capable of this
- mode, restricting it to up and down wheel emulation on it's stick. To
- reset mouse run setps2. setimps2 is for the intellimouse protocol.
- setmmplus is for the mouseman plus protocol. us getmdt to see the mouse's
- reponse to the mouse device type probe. The codes I've seen are as
- follows (<nn> is in hex format):
- <00> mouseman plus (3 byte packets)
- <03> intellimouse (4 byte packets)
- <00> plain ps2 (3 byte packets)
- when mouse is this, <AA> is received also after an <FA>
- Any <FA> type codes are ignored mouse responses, usually confirmation of
- the mouse receiving the controls the program sends it.
- All these debugging programs default to the /dev/mouse device node unless a
- path is passed in as the first argument.
- None of the debugging programs have been tested with serial mice.
- Fixed a missed regrab of the mouse after the configurator is closed.
- Pid file is only used if user is using the /dev/gpmwheel FIFO. (Method #2)
- Killing pids according to pidfile now checks to make sure the process is
- truely an imwheel process, and only kills it if it is an imwheel process.
- It also will only kill if using the /dev/gpmwheel FIFO.
- Imwheel funtions correctly on multiple displays by using the -display
- option or setting the DISPLAY environment variable (use export/setenv!)
- Thanks to Arnd Bergmann <arnd@uni.de> we now have gpm support for the
- Knopex Wineasy 4D mouse. And due to his patches and them prompting me to
- update lotsa code we have support for intellimouse serial, as well as
- support for sideways actions. This is only available through the FIFO.
- You must use Method#2 (a variant of which that is) that uses the wheel
- FIFO as set up by gpm. XWindows cannot handle the 7 buttons correctly,
- it can only handle 5, which means only up and down will work with
- Method #1!
- Added FreeBSD support, see the FREEBSD file for more. It requires no
- changes to compile and install.
- Added threshhold option for stick users of method #2 (it requires gpm)
- Use the -t or --threshhold option to set a threshhold from 0-7.
- The default is 2, it works well.
- Added no-middle-button option (-n) to gpm. Use this if you have trouble
- with unintentional middle button clicks while wheeling/sticking, and you
- would rather use Emulate3Buttons chording in X (XFree86 at least...)
- Added conditional compile for gpm-imwheel directory.
- Added a full manpage.

+ Initial support & drivers (gpm & imwheel) for IBM ScrollPoint Mouse
+ It is the mm+ps2 mouse type in gpm
+ the IBM ScrollPoint PS/2 mouse uses the MouseManPlus Protocol in XFree86
+ Support for up and down only for now...I must do a bit before other
+ directions are considered! (for stick type mice thingers.)
+ Pressing continuously will only result in one action. Release and press
+ again to scroll another notch. (the regular scroll events come in too
+ fast to be useful yet...)
+ THANKS!!!!! TO Felix Klock for the ScrollPoint Mouse he MAILED ME!!!
+ This driver is due to the initiative and sacrifice of a few bucks to get
+ support for a mouse this guy loves...and from what I've read on newgroups
+ many others also love! Well you owe the possibility of this driver to
+ Bryan for mailing me a mouse to be able to actually hack on the real
+ thing. Now continued support is guaranteed as well!
+ mail your appreciation to Felix S Klock at pnkfelix@mit.edu
+ He paid $23 or so for the mouse plus shipping to me (with normal 32cent
+ stamps no less...due to the effects of the 1cent price increase in stamps
+ I'm sure he was kinda glad to be rid of some of his 32cent stash to make
+ room for the 33cent ones!) Please consider sending him a dollar for his
+ effort since you are reaping the rewards... (and hey send me a dollar! :)

0.9.5
- Finished off configure dialog to spec, it's just a helper, not an editor!
- Updated gpm to version 1.16.0, now sticking with stable versions.
- - hopefully I'll get a patch and send it to the gpm team for some
- integration, thus releasing me from this task...
- - the gpm library is still untested in the console...should work though!
- see note in version 0.8 below.
- Added suid option to "make install" for users other than root to be able
- to run with a pid file. The default action is yes if nothing is entered
- at the prompt. I felt that 'yes' had to be the default action to avoid a
- bunch of newbie email. This doesn't allow users to install imwheel as
- root, and it's not a security risk. this is for sys-admins, or at least
- root users to be able to get all their users using the pid file for the
- daemon and also for them to be able to kill off old daemons started by
- other users before.
- Added -p option for no pidfile stuff, be careful though, this allows any
- user to start imwheel regardless of a previous imwheel process!
- Added -D for debug output anytime (no recompiling for those bug reports!)
- - use the -d option to avoid backgrounding the process!
- Fixed silly free(NULL) crap...(heh, betchyall loved that one!)
- added rxvt stuff to imwheelrc file.
- added EMACS file (an email from an avid wheeler! oh, and it's about emacs!)

0.9:
- Configuration helper almost done. (still need to sample wheel actions!)
- - use up,down,up in the root window to activate!
- - all functions in window are fully functional.
- - restart does restart imwheel and thus reread the rc files
- - grab windows by clicking the snapshot and then on the desired window
- - more to come!
- More options and abilities:
- - daemon mode
- -d to NOT detach and daemonize!
- - kill any existing imwheel
- -k to kill any existing imwheel as a restart
- - quit after rc files
- -q, used best with -k to kill any imwheel process and quit
- More configuration options:
- - added 2 separately configurable delays
- fixes netscape dropping keys! (it must queue only one key...)
- first delay is the delay between repetitions (keyup->keydown)
- second delay is the delay between pressing and releasing
- (keydown->keyup)
- see the new imwheelrc for the netscape values that work for me!

0.8:
- Modified gpm 1.15 beta2 for wheel support. I dunno about the gpm user
- library and wheel stuff, but it may work with GPM_B_UP and GPM_B_DOWN.
- use the -W (and -w for non-IM mice) for use with "imwheel --wheel-fifo"
- IMWheel interfaces with /dev/gpmwheel, use the "--wheel-fifo" option, or
- "-W /dev/gpmwheel", the -- option has /dev/gpmwheel as the default.
- Don't forget to reconfigure your mouse pointer in XConfig...

0.7:
- No segfaults! Thank God! New functionality!
- New Command structure started, and Exclude command added.
- - Exclude ungrabs mouse for selected windows.
- More commands may now be added as needed!
- XV's window grabber was dying because it needed to grab all buttons...
- - use the line "@Exclude" in an "xv grab" window section. See imwheelrc

0.5:
- Argh...a bugfix for segfaults...this time it doesn't care about windows that

- Thanks for all the positive response and encouragement.
- Multi-rep scrolling actions can cause less then you expected to happen.
- - Be patient, it works most of the time. There is no way I can find to fix
- this, so help may be needed! You will find XSync in use, but I believe
- that has a minimal effectiveness...makes it work better than before though
- Moving out of windows and losing focus may cause weird things to happen!
- - Press and release all modifier keys (alt,ctrl,shift,etc.) to reset input.

0.4:
- finally! Config file support is added, completing the keyboard config setup.
- /etc/imwheelrc and/or $HOME/.imwheelrc files are used for configuration.
- built-ins are still available for unconfigured windows.
- anybody want to make a client to make configuration a breeze? Contact me!
- all clients that have keyboard input can be used with configuration!
- no new options.
- more code moving, now two files, whopee you say! but it made development
- easier!
- got reports that KDE compatabilty has been achieved by v0.3

0.3:
- added options engine.
- added -f or --flip-buttons option to flip behavior, useful for 4 button mice
- changed engine, now using XTest extension instead of XSendEvent crap.
- - still grabbing buttons which may be part of the incompatibility with KDE.
- added other mice that should work as well, according to XFree86 docs.
- added a grab reset sequence, but it seems to be a nop...
- - run imwheel again if it dies and leaves your server going funky...
- cleaned out junk from old engine, new code is cleaner...I think so anyways!
- XTest extension now required (not checked in code...I may do that)
- More clients work than ever!
- Reps for sideways motion (alt-wheel actions) now work in netscape...
- - only when there are sideways scrollbars
- - May work everywhere, i dunno!
- - It works in all tested clients that use cursor left/right keys for actions
