Time for a new release that provide bugfixes and new features.
- De-icoification of the full-screened windows have been fixed. They
will appear now in full-screen without border or title.
- Non wanted qjackctl and medias icons have been fixed. They should not
appear any more as we can control those programs from the music
button and menu.
- Restrict Fullscreen to non FvwmButtons windows. It was possible to
bring the buttons in full screen, and this is not wanted.
- Unification of the desktop geometry. All the recipes have now the
same 8 pages by 1 geometry. This fix the lost window issue with
recipe changes. The "Clean vertival" recipe has been removed in the
process, but it was the same than Vertical anyway.
- The Icon-Launcher is now available in all the recipe through a new
preference setting: Desktop manager -> Thunar. This is the same
setting than "None", but with icons for all the mounted partitions.
Clicking on those icons will open Thunar at the corresponding mount
point. Simple and fast.
- Some styles order fixes.
- Last but not least, the font preferences have been fully rewritten.
They are now under the form of a Font Selector which provide all
the old settings into one dialog. Font styles support have been added,
and the selected font is shown with its selected size and style. Of
course, the example string can be edited, saved for later use and
restored to its default value. This Font Selector is a FvwmScript
with full xft and GetText suppot. That make it much easier to use
than old style Fvwm font selectors using the core font. Xft support
imply also full UTF-8 support. This was already the case with
Fvwm-Crystal old font preferences sytem, but this new font selector
is just the best.
- Help needed with more translations, colorsets, decorations and
whatever you can think about. Please considere to contribute.

Note: You can ask you why I changed the version from 3.1.7 to 3.1.12.
It's simple, bug fixes count for 3.1.8, and the added or changed
features for the other steps.
