About GNOME Shell Extensions
============================

GNOME Shell Extensions is a collection of extensions providing
additional and optional functionality to GNOME Shell.
Most extensions can be installed by configuring --prefix=$HOME/.local,
and will be picked automatically at next login. Some of them, because of
GSettings limitations, require to be installed system-wide.
In the future, it is expected that a web based repository will be set up
to ease installation and management, therefore distributions are
discouraged to provide extensions in packaged form.
Despite sharing some infrastructure with GNOME Shell core, it should be
noted that extensions are not supported by the core team.

Changes since 3.1.3
===================

- New extension: a menu for changing workspace (workspace-indicator)
- systemMonitor: lower the requirement on libgtop
- auto-move-windows: open overview when last window on
  last workspace is closed
- dock: implement autohiding, with various configurable
  effects
- alternate-tab: more configurable implementations available
- native-window-placement: don't rearrange the windows when
  the workspace switcher is shown/hidden
- update for gnome-shell 3.1.4 API changes

Available Extensions
