Waybox 0.1.0 represents 67 commits since 0.0.2.1. Here are some highlights:

  • The code has been modernized and requires wlroots 0.15.0.
  • New Wayland protocols have been implemented:
    • primary-selection: copy-and-paste support
    • xdg-output (allows screen recording)
    • wlr-layer-shell: used by common programs like mako and swaybg
    • xdg-decoration: for providing views with decorations. The decorations themselves won't be visible, but programs that require this protocol will now work.
  • Basic config-file support. Now, things like keyboard layout and key combinations are read from the rc.xml file. The keys to do things are no longer hard-coded. The actions implemented: Close, Execute, Exit, NextWindow, PreviousWindow. You can still use the environment variables from wlc to specify the keyboard layout, though.
