Hello,

I'm glad to announce new releases of the xfce4-windowck-plugin. This 
work was done in collaboration with the original author Alessio Piccoli.

There are a lot of changes relative to the original version. I tried to 
code as cleanly and efficient as possible.
In addition I've made a patch for xfwm4 based on Viktor Semykin work. 
It's available here : https://github.com/cedl38/xfwm4-titleless.

Sources:
https://github.com/cedl38/xfce4-windowck-plugin

It's main features are:

- Show the title and buttons of the maximized window on the panel.
- Allow window actions on buttons and title clicks (activate, 
(un)maximize, close).
- Allow window action menu on left button click.
- Title formatting options.
- xfwm4/unity theming support for buttons.
- ...

To clone and install the repository with git do :

# git clone https://github.com/cedl38/xfce4-windowck-plugin.git

go to the desired version or branch:
# git checkout v0.2.0

build and install:
# make
# sudo make install

note: to upgrade from version 0.1.x to version 0.2.x you need to remove 
v0.1.x previously.


Regards,

Cédric
