new non-virtual panner (old virtual one was removed before 2.1+ release)
NEW pan with keys (no panner)
NEW drag single windows
pans better than gnome grid panner ? far as i can remember yes.
%100 complete automake ./configure - ready to remake project (ie, running libtool does not break it) , and demos are not broken panner is also %100 optional. should be CDE compatible or is easily so. yes works with X virtual desktop too.
code was not mangled to add panner: no new files, just a new function placed back in, a few adjustments to panner.
but there's new motif? yes but motif 2.3.4 does not support 2.1.30 applications anymore (ie, perhaps and older ddd bin). for libXm.so.2.0 still need motif-2.2 around (especially if they continue to hack in (more) non-compat changes in Motif 2.3+)
Non-Virtual panner is a small function that would work with about any window manager ever made, if placed into a callback for that wm, and panner(1) is just a widget which is a UI for using it. is %99 X11, just has to listen to X for a message for panner calling, is all.
I could be wrong about new gnome still being stuck with full page only / grid panner.
Sure it's a greedy app plug however: I thought it's worth meantioning because
1) easy to compile Motif anyone needs that
2) non-virtual panner could be added to enhance any wm project pretty quick
3) non buggy, and size is not related to video memory - even less so than fvwm
4) xrandr like X11R6 Virtual i believe eats video memory and is limited by hardware (same code base), has no GUI i heard of yet , and many are dumping hardware problems getting it to work and or restricted to area. that is what i understand so far.
xrandr --panning 1600x1280 is still very small. 6000x4000 would be small for fvwm
