1 Release history for lariza
5 - Automatically adding the "file://" prefix didn't work (reliably) if
6 a message was sent to an already running instance.
9 - Autoreloading of crashed web processes has been removed. It doesn't
10 make sense anymore since the switch to webkit's multi-process model.
11 Instead, we now simply announce the crash in the location bar.
15 - As requested by WebKit's API documentation, we now wait for the
16 "ready-to-show" signal after a "create" signal. This fixes crashes
17 after you chose "Open link in new window" from a context menu.
20 - The "search prefix" has been changed from "/" to ":/". This means,
21 in order to search for text in a web page, you now have to enter
22 something like ":/your search term" into the input box.
23 - Lariza now uses WebKit's multi-process model. This means that (most)
24 tabs run as independent processes. If one tab crashes, it should not
26 - The GtkLevelBar to show page loading progress has been removed.
27 Instead, we now use the progress bar which is already included in
28 GtkEntry (the input box). This is mostly a cosmetic change, but it
29 also eliminates some GTK warnings.
32 - An external user-supplied program can be called for the current URI
33 or for hyperlinks/images/videos/audio files.
34 - Lariza will now automatically add a "file://" prefix for local
36 - Hotkeys have been unified. It is now largely irrelevant whether the
37 location bar or the web view has focus.
38 - Lariza can be instructed to write each visited URI to a file.
42 - Lariza no longer reports download progress below 0% or above 100%.
43 (Workaround for what appears to be a WebKit2GTK+ bug.)
46 - We no longer explicitly set the X11 window's class and name. Let
47 GTK+ do this job. The actual class and name should be unchanged,
48 though (WM_CLASS(STRING) = "lariza", "Lariza").
50 This does not affect tabbed which is still run with "-n lariza".
52 This change fixes a GTK+ deprecation warning.
56 - Web extensions are now looked for in ~/.config/lariza/web_extensions.
63 - Except for the default window size, there are no hardcoded pixel
64 values anymore. Should make it a little easier to run lariza on
65 HiDPI screens. (Sorry, not tested, I don't have one.)
68 - New key bindings F2 and F3: Go backward and forward, just like the
69 existing mouse key binds do.
73 - Issue #14: "Keypad enter" now registers as "commit", i.e. "start
74 loading the URL" or "begin searching for search term".
75 - Issue #15: lariza no longer tries to create local file names with
76 directory separators in them when downloading files.
77 - lariza no longer sets the window title to an empty string.
80 - For the sake of consistency, $LARIZA_WEB_EXTENSIONS_DIR has been
84 - Manpages are now available.
