Application
===========

Workrave 1.4.0

Description
===========

Workrave is a program that assists in the recovery and prevention of
repetitive strain injury (RSI). The program frequently alerts you to take
micro-pauses and rest breaks, and restricts you to your daily limit. It
currently runs on GNU/Linux and Windows.

Enhancements
============

- Added exercises.

- Workrave has been translated to Polish, Danish and Spanish. Many
thanks to Mikolaj Machowski, Christian Vejlbo, and Pablo Rodriguez!

- Multihead support for X11. Workrave now shows break windows on
all monitors.

- Workrave can now cope with changes in system time and OS features
like suspend-to-ram.

- Previously, the end time that showed up in the stats dialog equaled
the time at which the clock reset (typically equal to the start of the
next working day).  This lead to weird from/to times, as in: "From
8:46 to 9:10". Fixed.

- Added an icon to the skip/postpone buttons on break windows.

- Many laptop pointer devices "drift" over time. This used to cause
Workrave to detect activity when there was in fact none.  Fixed,
thanks to Chung-chieh Shan.

- On Windows, Workrave now notices when Explorer crashes and will try
to reinsert the tray icon in the new Explorer taskbar that is created
when Explorer restarts.

- Rewrote the user input blocking mechanism on Windows. You should no
longer experience visual quirks (like flashing windows or unexpectedly
focusing random windows) during breaks.

- On Linux, Workrave now notices when the gnome-panel crashes and will
reinsert the applet in the new panel.

- The content of the status window can now be configured.

- Breaks can now be disabled.
