NeferWL v0.2.0

The first big update since v0.1.0, with 118 commits. Highlights:

  • Workspace overview that zooms out over every workspace, including named workspaces and windows under a fullscreen one.
  • Window management: free floating windows, moving and resizing with the pointer, window height inside a column, column width and workspace order actions, Cmd+F maximize, and a per-workspace stash strip (Cmd+S).
  • Screen locking: ext-session-lock with DRM output protection.
  • Screen capture: grim/slurp support, authorized recording sessions, a compositor-drawn capture indicator and an allowlist.
  • HDR: HDR10 output on capable displays and HDR content from clients.
  • Gaming: native Wine/Proton protocols, a faster game frame path, VRR kept on while a fullscreen window is composed, and direct scanout of fullscreen subsurfaces.
  • Input: touchpad swipes, tap to click and natural scroll, plus text-input v3 and input-method v2.
  • Ecosystem protocols: wlr-output-management, output power, idle notifier, ext-workspace and foreign toplevel management.
  • Packaging: GitHub releases, neferwl-bin/neferwl-git on the AUR, a systemd graphical-session.target unit and make install.
