every other window manager since twm.
The event layer is very nice, very shiny, very flexible, and very much
underutilised. We don't need any of those shiny features so it's
probably better to earn ourselves 1k smaller text size instead.

using Xft(3), use it to select the font color as well instead of trying
to build one; properly allocate and free colors at-will, e.g. we now
have configurable colors.

display and moves it to another group. useful with the recently added
"grouponly" function, giving the ability to use groups as simple
virtual desktops (similar to e.g. xmonad, dwm and scrotwm).
this doesn't have default keyboard bindings; cwmrc(5) now shows how
you could use these functions (use M-1...9 for grouponly1...9 and
MS-1...9 for movetogroup1...9 to emulate the default dwm bindings).

you change to a different group and the mouse isn't over a window; previously
the border of the previously active window was highlighted but it didn't
actually have focus.
reads ok to oga@.
This works like the group select binding, but hides all other groups.
So, the people who've been complaining that they don't get "virtual
desktops" in cwm may want to try this out in cwmrc (from memory, untested):
---
#cwmrc
# add new windows to the current group
set sticky
# automatically sticky windows. xclock for now.
# to make more windows sticky use group_toggle to unset their group
autogroup 0 xclock
# make the group selection keys hide other groups, emulate virtual desktops

your group state. Fix this up by using an X Atom (_CWM_GRP) to store the
name of the group that we're using (the name, not the number is because
at one point we may make the group numbers dynamic). I've been talking
about this since c2k8. so CM-w means you keep all of your windows grouped
properly.

Do this instead of querying for them every time we use them. This
removes an XXX that has been in there since time began. This will become
more important as we move towards supporting netwm.

times you'd end up losing clients (thinking they had gone away).
From the ICCCM (which should not be read without a stiff drink in hand,
I made this mistake so you don't have to): to request a window to be
withdrawn one should send a synthetic UnmapRequest event when iconified.
To request iconification one should just unmap the window. The ICCM
further recommends that the synthetic event should just be taken as a
cue to withdraw, to deal with legacy clients. Taking a hint from this,
rework xev_handle_unmaprequest to correctly detect these situations. A
Withdrawn window may come back anywhere, even as a subwindow of
something else, so the correct way to handle this state is to forget it
ever existed.
While i'm here, kill a dumb attempt to notice this in client_delete, and
nuke the very unnecessary arguments.
Todd confirmed this fixes the `race'.

to push attributes around, so things get a lot simplier, while fixing a
few issues in the meantime; original suggestion by Edd Barrett many many
moons ago.
annoying window placement and race, found in c2k8 by todd, fix by oga!
lots of feedback from todd and oga - thanks!

The behaviour until now was to ask X for the windows name (which is
malloced) then drop that on the floor and do nothing with it. Skip this
foolery and just skip the window. I don't believe I never noticed this before!

- properly name, place and static private functions.
- move function which finds the xinerama screen for a coordinate to
a more appropriate place while altering its semantics to match others.
- tiny bit of style.
ok oga@
- merge grab_drag() into mousefunc_window_move().
- properly name, proto and static private functions.
- since we already do XMoveResizeWindow() and XMoveWindow() in (now)
mousefunc_window_resize() and mousefunc_window_move() respectively,
client_resize() and client_move() calls are unnecessary.
