1 Release history for lariza
5 - Compilation warnings regarding deprecated API calls (GtkAction) have
6 been addressed. Thanks to @jun7 on GitHub!
10 - You can now set the following environment variable to have console
11 output printed to STDOUT: LARIZA_ENABLE_CONSOLE_TO_STDOUT.
15 - The project has been relicensed under the MIT license (more
16 precisely called "Expat License", but everyone calls it "MIT
21 - User input is now properly escaped when used for keyword based
22 searching (fixes #47).
26 - Automatically adding the "file://" prefix didn't work (reliably) if
27 a message was sent to an already running instance.
30 - Autoreloading of crashed web processes has been removed. It doesn't
31 make sense anymore since the switch to webkit's multi-process model.
32 Instead, we now simply announce the crash in the location bar.
33 - Refuse to quit if there are active downloads. The user has to cancel
34 them explicitly. (To improve workflow a little bit, the download
35 manager now also knows a "Mod1 + q" hotkey.)
38 - WebGL can now be enabled by setting an environment variable. This is
39 an experimental feature, though.
43 - As requested by WebKit's API documentation, we now wait for the
44 "ready-to-show" signal after a "create" signal. This fixes crashes
45 after you chose "Open link in new window" from a context menu.
48 - The "search prefix" has been changed from "/" to ":/". This means,
49 in order to search for text in a web page, you now have to enter
50 something like ":/your search term" into the input box.
51 - Lariza now uses WebKit's multi-process model. This means that (most)
52 tabs run as independent processes. If one tab crashes, it should not
54 - The GtkLevelBar to show page loading progress has been removed.
55 Instead, we now use the progress bar which is already included in
56 GtkEntry (the input box). This is mostly a cosmetic change, but it
57 also eliminates some GTK warnings.
60 - An external user-supplied program can be called for the current URI
61 or for hyperlinks/images/videos/audio files.
62 - Lariza will now automatically add a "file://" prefix for local
64 - Hotkeys have been unified. It is now largely irrelevant whether the
65 location bar or the web view has focus.
66 - Lariza can be instructed to write each visited URI to a file.
70 - Lariza no longer reports download progress below 0% or above 100%.
71 (Workaround for what appears to be a WebKit2GTK+ bug.)
74 - We no longer explicitly set the X11 window's class and name. Let
75 GTK+ do this job. The actual class and name should be unchanged,
76 though (WM_CLASS(STRING) = "lariza", "Lariza").
78 This does not affect tabbed which is still run with "-n lariza".
80 This change fixes a GTK+ deprecation warning.
84 - Web extensions are now looked for in ~/.config/lariza/web_extensions.
91 - Except for the default window size, there are no hardcoded pixel
92 values anymore. Should make it a little easier to run lariza on
93 HiDPI screens. (Sorry, not tested, I don't have one.)
96 - New key bindings F2 and F3: Go backward and forward, just like the
97 existing mouse key binds do.
101 - Issue #14: "Keypad enter" now registers as "commit", i.e. "start
102 loading the URL" or "begin searching for search term".
103 - Issue #15: lariza no longer tries to create local file names with
104 directory separators in them when downloading files.
105 - lariza no longer sets the window title to an empty string.
108 - For the sake of consistency, $LARIZA_WEB_EXTENSIONS_DIR has been
112 - Manpages are now available.
