Rewrite the core parts in C. We now provide librc so other programs can
query runlevels, services and state without using bash. We also provide libeinfo so other programs can easily use our informational functions. As such, we have dropped the requirement of using bash as the init script shell. We now use /bin/sh and have strived to make the scripts as portable as possible. Shells that work are bash and dash. busybox works provided you disable s-s-d. If you have WIPE_TMP set to yes in conf.d/bootmisc you should disable find too. zsh and ksh do not work at this time. Networking support is currently being re-vamped also as it was heavily bash array based. As such, a new config format is available like so config_eth0="1.2.3.4/24 5.6.7.8/16" or like so config_eth0="'1.2.3.4 netmask 255.255.255.0' '5.6.7.8 netmask 255.255.0.0'" We will still support the old bash array format provided that /bin/sh IS a link it bash. ChangeLog for baselayout-1 can be found in our SVN repo.

+# XSESSION is a new variable to control what window manager to start
+# default with X if run with xdm, startx or xinit. The default behavior
+# is to look in /etc/X11/Sessions/ and run the script in matching the
+# value that XSESSION is set to. The support scripts are smart enough to
+# look in all bin directories if it cant find a match in /etc/X11/Sessions/,
+# so setting it to "enlightenment" can also work. This is basically used
+# as a way for the system admin to configure a default system wide WM,
+# allthough it will work if the user export XSESSION in his .bash_profile, etc.
+#
+# NOTE: 1) this behaviour is overridden when a ~/.xinitrc exists, and startx
+# is called.
+# 2) even if ~/.xsession exists, if XSESSION can be resolved, it will
+# be executed rather than ~/.xsession, else KDM breaks ...
+#
+# Defaults depending on what you install currently include:
+#
+# Gnome - will start gnome-session
+# kde-<version> - will start startkde (look in /etc/X11/Sessions/)
+# Xsession - will start a terminal and a few other nice apps
+# Xfce4 - will start a XFCE4 session
+
+#XSESSION="Gnome"
