1. configure/build changes to allow cross-compiling painlessly
2. pager module namespace changes - this was still dirty afdter the namespace
cleanup, so clean it up
3. add a powersave subsystem - doesnt have an "automatic" way to turn on and
off right now, this i think is best provided by modules (that do things like
monitor acpi status's (eg close lid of laptop), AC power status etc. etc.
this allows e to nicely defer "power" expensive actions to avoid disk
spinups etc.
4. move to use the new ecore poller system - discussed long ago as part of
power management/saving issues. now it exists
5. add a canvas idle flush call that helsp cope with the new shm greedy
software x11 engine stuff
6. use the new powersave subsystem where appropriate
7. fix non-zeroed/initted memory access in e_fm_main
8. fix mem leak for e menus
9. remove ipc handlers for changed/removed config values
10. use animaotr not timer for menu scrolls - then menu scrolls obey the fps
config
11. fix up timer/poll happienss of cursor idle stuff
12. remove avoid damage from popups for now - causing problems
13. change battery and temp readouts to b e shorter so they fit
14. pager can emit signals on focus change for mini-windows now
15. temperature module now uses a slave process and uses stdin/out to talk to
it and get output - this makes e smoother as in my expereicne i found getting
the temp on my laptop actually took like 200ms so e "hang" for 200ms while
reading the acpi files - so now the subprocess does it and just writesa back
to e when it gets it.
ecore:
1. add ecore_pollers. see the documentation on them in doxygen comments :)
2. fix timers to only go off when they have to - bug there that made e's
select time out a LOT more than it needed to. defensive coding hid the
problem. now fixed. e should be much more power friendly now.
3. formatting/niceness in ecore_exe stuff
4. some comments on comments with SIGIO ideas vs. select
5. add call to be able to add an idle enterer at the start of the list of
them, not just the end (as has been the default)
6. fix ecore_evas to support auto evas idler calls after 0.5 secs of idle in
all canvases - and to do it right
7. if argb destination - set the shape EVENT shape (to mask out events in
transparent regions much like shape does withotu translucency)
8. in ecore_x add support for the event shape
evas:
1. fix cache to work properly and not just always fill up (as it seemed to
like to think cahce useage dropped below 0 when it didnt and thus just
over-fill)
2. software x11 engine now ONLY uses shm segments - no ximages over the
socket. this ximage hack was there to avoid the 2 round trips involved in
setting up an shm image - now i mitigated that wih an shm image cache pool.
it keeps shm images around and repurposes them for new update regions if
appropriate. this means many fewer shm creates (about 1/100th the number) and
since we recycle the memory less 0 memory page filling by the kernel - in the
end, i recorded about a 10-20% speedup over the old software x11 engine.
simple tests i have seen up to 120% speedups. idle flush now does something -
it frees all the cached shm segments. it has a hard-coded limit of 4mb worth
of shm segments (or 32 segments - whichever comes first) to keep around. once
can never complain much about speedups methinks :). also evas will defer sync
until the NEXT frame is written - this means evas can calculate the next
frame of data while x dma's/copies the images to the screen at the same time
(if you hve a dual core or multi-cpu machnike or your xserver is able to use
DMA to copy image data to the screen/video ram then this should see a decent
speedup).

all group names prefaced by e/
its entirely possible i missed a few small places in this, so there may be some growing pains in the next day or two
also, spectrum content -> e.swallow.content
SVN revision: 25057
Almost every signal and required part name has changed. This means that ALL themes other than the default one are now broken. Sorry, but this had to happen.
I have a list of mappings from old to new at http://rephorm.com/files/dump/e_theme_map.txt
There will probably be a little more cleanup on this in the coming days. Then I'll write it all up in a nice theme spec.
SVN revision: 25033
basically if moduels wish to put objects on a desktop - they now will have to
DIY and look after themselves. until we have gadcons with "free" layout that
do similar stuff - but this simply means module authors need to d a bit more
work. gadman code is unmaintained and a burden - thus removed.
also borders and e_win's have their own pointers now - this should nuke the
stuck pointer bug... :)
SVN revision: 24925
add extra pointer info, and check all alloc calls.
Return a pointer object when using x cursor too, so we have a reference
to play with.
