Remove single screen support, -s. #977

Closed somiaj closed 6 months ago

somiaj commented 6 months ago

Fvwm no longer needs to run separate instances on each screen to manage screens independently. With RandR support and DesktopConfiguration per-monitor, each screen can be managed independently, with the advantage that all windows are managed by a single instance of fvwm, so windows can be moved between screens and controlled by a single instance. This removes the old single screen support from fvwm.

Note, users of the old -s option should switch to DesktopConfiguration per-monitor and run a single instance of fvwm. If there are features that per-monitor is missing, report issues so they are known and can be addressed. In general per-monitor should provide the same functionality and more than running separate instances on each Xinemera screen.
