<title>Session Scripts</title>
<para>
<application>Enlightenment</application> can now automatically run user scripts or applications during
Startup, Restart, and Shutdown. This facilitates the loading of system
tray applets, rss readers, screensavers, and other daemons (e.g. dbus),
and allows for cleanup of programs that don't terminate properly when <application>E</application>
quits (this is especially common with <application>KDE</application> applications in <application>E</application> and the arts
daemon or dcop server keeps running).
</para>
<para>
<application>Enlightenment</application> accomplishes this with the addition of two new keys in
the <filename>$ECONFDIR/e_config--#.#.cfg</filename> (#.# may vary depending on your X setup --
for most people, it will be 0.0). These are:
<programlisting>
misc.session.enable_script
misc.session.script
</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
<varname>misc.session.enable_script</varname> is a boolean. When set to 1, <application>Enlightenment</application> will
execute the script in the <varname>misc.session.script</varname> key. By default, this feature
is disabled. When enabled, it will do nothing until the user configures
his/her home directory (<filename class="directory">$ECONFDIR</filename> -- normally <filename class="directory">~/.e16</filename>).
</para>
<para>
The default session.script is located in <filename>$EROOT/scripts/session.sh</filename> (<filename class="directory">$EROOT</filename>
is normally <filename class="directory">/usr/share/e16</filename> or <filename class="directory">/usr/local/share/e16</filename>). It will look for
directories in the user's <filename class="directory">$ECONFDIR/</filename> (<filename class="directory">~/.e16/</filename>) called:
<programlisting>
~/.e16/ ($ECONFDIR)
Init/
Start/
Stop/
</programlisting>
and run any and/or all scripts or executables in each when <application>E</application> starts,
restarts, and shuts down. If no scripts or executables are present, or
if any of the directories <filename class="directory">Init</filename>, <filename class="directory">Start</filename>, and <filename class="directory">Stop</filename> do not exist, NOTHING
will happen and <application>E</application> will start up as usual. So, in order to use session
scripts, all the user has to do is to populate the <filename class="directory">Init</filename>, <filename class="directory">Start</filename>, and <filename class="directory">Stop</filename>
directories with scripts, applications, or links to applications that
should run during Startup, Restart, or when <application>E</application> is stopped.
</para>
<para>
The default values for the new keys are:
<programlisting>
misc.session.enable_script = 0
misc.session.script = $EROOT/scripts/session.sh
</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
The user may write a custom script and place it anywhere. Simply modify
the config file by using:
<programlisting>
$ eesh set misc.session.script myscript
</programlisting>
and modify it (be sure to <command>chmod +x</command> the file otherwise it won't run).
The session script is called with one of three command parameters;
<parameter class="command">init</parameter>, <parameter class="command">start</parameter>, and <parameter class="command">stop</parameter>. Any custom script should have a code block
similar to this in order to function properly in <application>Enlightenment</application>.
<programlisting>
case "$1" in
init)
# do blah
# or do function init
start)
# do blah
# of do function start
stop)
# do blah
# or do function stop
esac
</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
Automatic script running can be enabled/disabled via the Session Settings
dialog in <application>Enlightenment</application> and checking/unchecking the option Enable Session
Script, by editing the user cfg file and setting the
<varname>misc.session.enable_script</varname> key to 1/0, or with
<programlisting>
$ eesh set misc.session.enable_script 1/0
</programlisting>
This process is very flexible since when used, the user can turn off
individual scripts and applications by <command>chmod -x</command> or simply leave the
startup directories empty or remove them.

<title>Composite manager notes</title>
<para>
To use the composite manager it is required that the X-server has support
enabled for the COMPOSITE, DAMAGE, FIXES, and RENDER extensions.
For reasonable performance it is also required that hardware acceleration
of the RENDER extension is enabled.

As of version 0.16.8.2 it may happen that the borders on application windows
using ARGB visuals (for transparency) are "ugly". Applications may use ARGB
visuals intentionally (e.g. fdclock) or not (e.g. xv on 16 bit root depth).
Applications unintentionally using an ARGB visual will normally not be
rendered properly at all and should be started with the environment variable
<varname>XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS</varname> set.
To fix border rendering on "real" ARGB windows it is required to use <filename>imlib2</filename>
with version >= 1.3.0.

it isn't (<command>eesh set compmgr.mode 1</command>, restart).

If pop-up windows disappear immediately after having appeared (may happen
e.g. with certain pop-up windows when using gnome > 2.12), try:
<programlisting>

This should make the pop-up windows usable, but not always rendered properly.
This problem should not occur with recent X-servers.
</para>

However, somewhere along the way the script <filename>/usr/bin/gnome-wm</filename> is called.
This is supposed to handle differences in all the different WM's out there,

One way to fix this is to use <property>gnome-session-properties</property> to get rid of

<title>Major changes and new features in 0.16.8</title>
<para>
The following sections are only relevant for users upgrading from version 0.16.7
or older.
</para>
<para>
Changes:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
"enlightenment" has been renamed to "e16".
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
The default user configuration directory is "<filename class="directory">~/.e16</filename>".
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
The data install path is "<filename class="directory"><somepath>/e16</filename>", e.g. "<filename class="directory">/usr/share/e16</filename>".
Thus, an <application>e16.8</application> installation should not clash with any other versions.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Various configuration file formats have changed and should be easier
to read and modify, if needed.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
The configuration is stored per display and per screen. E.g. for
<varname>DISPLAY=:1.0</varname> the main configuration file is "<filename>~/.e16/e_config--1.0.cfg</filename>".
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Actions(used by menus, keybindings, etc.) and IPC functions(<application>eesh</application>) have
been merged.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Many IPC(<application>eesh</application>) commands have been changed, possibly breaking compatibility
with a few epplets.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Window matches and icondefs have been merged (into <filename>matches.cfg</filename>), see below.
</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
</para>
<para>
New features:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
Built-in composite manager.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
An iconbox can be configured to act as System Tray
(<menuchoice><interface>middle mouse</interface><guimenu>Desktop</guimenu><guimenuitem>Create Systray</guimenuitem></menuchoice>).
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Possibility to run programs on startup, restart, and shutdown, see
<link linkend="sessionscripts">"Session Scripts"</link> below.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Possibility to track changes in remembered settings.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
Window operations by window matches (class, name, transient, ...),
e.g. for making all windows of a certain type sticky, put it on a certain
layer, etc. (see <filename>matches.cfg</filename>).
</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
</para>
<para>
0.16.8 should be compatible with most <application>e16</application> themes. However, user installed
themes will have to be moved/linked to <filename class="directory">~/.e16/themes/</filename> or <filename class="directory"><datadir>/e16/themes/</filename>.
A few themes will have to be tweaked to work with <application>e16.8</application>. The most likely
problem is that configuration settings are included in .cfg files where they
are no longer accepted.
See the <link linkend="migratingfromversionsolderthan0168">"Migrating ..."</link> section below for additional information.
</para>
<para>
<application>e16keyedit</application> >= 0.3 works with e16.8.
</para>
<para>
If used to change the keybindings, the modified settings will be stored in
<filename>~/.e16/bindings.cfg</filename>.
It should also be fairly straightforward to modify the key- and buttonbindings
by hand. Copy <filename>/usr/share/e16/config/bindings.cfg</filename> to <filename>~/.e16/bindings.cfg</filename> and
modify as desired.
</para>
<para>
NB! <application>e16keyedit</application> only modifies keybindings, not buttonbindings.
</para>
<para>
NB!!! Do not rename <filename class="directory">~/.enlightenment</filename> to <filename class="directory">~/.e16</filename>. It will only cause trouble.

<para>
Users upgrading from enlightenment 0.16.7 need to read the following.
</para>
<para>
Several organizational changes have occurred that will require
some manual adjustments. Mainly these deal with changes to
configuration and shared directory names. This was done to avoid
collisions with the new enlightenment DR17.
<orderedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
home configuration directory is now <filename class="directory">~/.e16</filename>, not <filename class="directory">~/.enlightenment</filename>.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
menu files have been moved to a subdirectory called menus
you will need to move customized menus and subdirectories to
<filename class="directory">~/.e16/menus</filename>.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
you will need to move <filename class="directory">~/.enlightenment/backgrounds</filename> files to <filename class="directory">~/.e16</filename>
and any themes as well.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<filename class="directory">$prefix/share/enlightenment</filename> has been changed to <filename class="directory">$prefix/share/e16</filename>
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
if installed E-docs and Epplet directories will have to be moved
to <filename class="directory">$prefix/share/e16</filename>
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
any additional themes that were added to the <filename class="directory">$prefix/share/enlightenment</filename>
directory will have to be moved to <filename class="directory">$prefix/share/e16</filename>
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
any startup scripts or Session scripts that reference the startup
executable `<command>enlightenment</command>` must be edited to the new <command>e16</command> program.
</para>
</listitem>
</orderedlist>
</para>
<para>
A few themes have to be tweaked to work with 0.16.8.
</para>
<para>
Some themes (Maw, Black E) have an <filename>actionclasses.cfg</filename> like:
<programlisting>
<![CDATA[
#include <definitions>
__E_CFG_VERSION 0
#include </usr/local/enlightenment/config/actionclasses.cfg>
#include </usr/share/enlightenment/config/actionclasses.cfg>
]]>
</programlisting>
The absolute path is obviously no longer valid.
The most sensible fix for these themes is to remove the themes
<filename>actionclasses.cfg</filename>. <application>e16</application> will then fall back to the default one.
</para>

<para>
The e16-docs package is somewhat dated but still contains much relevant
information about using e16.
