Some words about the implementation of pwm-like tabs for sawfish

These ones are my contribution to sawfish. Mostly code for tabs in sawfish (code was rewritten in a much cleaner way, please ignore previous versions)

There is also some code to provide some frames (in the ion sense, like emacs windows if you prefer). More to come soon I hope. Here is an idea of what I would like to achieve : frames.png

The interesting part is the central area: the borders are managed as usual, the other windows are organized as groups, and the groups should communicate in some way to rearrange nicely. I think most of the code is written, I've got to test it and integrate it in the workspace management so that I can decide that some workspace should be managed as a framed workspace.

sigma/frame.jl Provide splitable non-overlapping groups (inspired by ion/ratpoison/wmi/...)
sigma/group.jl Make window groups
sigma/marks.jl Provide a way to operate on multiple windows
sigma/refs.jl Store references tables
sigma/tab.jl Emulate fluxbox tabs system

Following is the code from Merlin. I mirror it here, just by prevention :-)

merlin/clock.jl a bad clock
merlin/fishbowl.jl a bad fishbowl
merlin/iconbox.jl a bad icon manager
merlin/icons.jl another bad icon manager
merlin/menu.jl a bad raw sawfish menu
merlin/message.jl fancier message display
merlin/mp3.jl an mp3 playlist menu
merlin/pager.jl a bad pager
merlin/pile.jl a bad pile
merlin/placement.jl opaque placement and with resize
merlin/sawlet.jl a bad saw(fish app)let framework
merlin/sawlet-placement.jl a placement mode for sawlets etc.
merlin/uglicon.jl window icons
merlin/ugliness.jl options for ugliness
merlin/util.jl some utilities
merlin/x-util.jl some x utilities

Endly, some code stolen in places like the Sawfish Wiki. Most of this code I don't use, so don't blame me if it does not work.
