NovaWM 0.2 - Will be released VERY soon

I hadn't been working on NovaWM for a bit because
of other projects. Though I have continued to
work on 0.2 for the last few days and things are
going well. One of the hardest things so far isdeceiding what to add and fix and what isn't
need for this release :) .
0.2 is mostly a bugfix release.
0.1 seemed to be quite unstable, especially
on another system I tested it on.
0.2 seems to have good stability.
NovaWM's signal handler works now :)
Also I will add another option to allow
the user to speicify the root window
color or image. Right now NovaWM uses
xsetbg which appears to only load jpgs but
I'll right my own code for images soon
(NovaWM will support: BMP, TGA, PCX, and some
others.).
Window moving works fine now too :).
There are many other improvements
that I haven't mentioned and many improvements
I plan to work on tonight.
