Why does my latest version of MaxSwallow do odd stuff?
In the newest versions of AfterStep (i.e. starting with the 1.4.5 series of patches), the Wharf underwent some re-working, in order to allow the use of some newer programs (designed for Window Maker). As a result, different patches turned up for the Wharf. The final result of this work can be seen in version 1.5. The old “MaxSwallow” has been removed, and replaced with “Swallow”. The older “Swallow”, with its size limitation, is gone. The “MaxSwallow” keyword now re-sizes the button to fit the app being swallowed. There is also a “Size” keyword, to resize the buttons, and ignore any other size determination.
