Maim now also respects the XShape extension, allowing shaped windows to be transparent. Old xeyes screenshot New xeyes screenshot

This'll break a lot of scripts that use the shorthand maim -b100 or similar. Arguments require spaces now so beware!

Maim was completely re-written to support slop as a library, and no longer relies on imlib2 in order to function.

A custom option parser was written, which caused some flags to change, thus this is a non-backward compatible version of maim.

Package managers can manipulate the manpage install directory with the CMAKE_INSTALL_MANDIR CMake variable, which defaults to ${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/share/man.

Package managers can also use -DCMAKE_COMPRESS_MAN=FALSE to disable man page compression if needed.

ATTENTION PACKAGE MAINTAINERS: Please use the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to set the install location. The binary is now installed to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX/bin/maim instead of the original CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX/maim.
