The -text option can now accept \{keysym} so that the specified key can be processed in a more primitive manner, and so that modifier keys such as Control_L, Meta_L, etc. can also be simulated. Also, \{+keysym} and \{+keysym} will now simulate press and release of the key, respectively.
The "Behave as Toolbar Window?" option was added to the Property panel, which may make xvkbd work better with some kinds of window managers, such as Matchbox. "Always on Top" will work better with window managers that support the extended window manager hint _NET_WM_STATE_ABOVE. The -window option can now find the window whose title matches the specified string, and the string may now include the wildcard characters "*" and "?".
The ability to emulate mouse operation (click of
mouse buttons and pointer motion) was added. The
ability to put some delay when sending a sequence
of characters (for example by -text option) was
added.
