3 * Input-modes removed. Instead of an input-mode display in the
4 minibuffer, there is now a keymaps-display.
6 - quote-next-input-mode renamed to quote-next-mode
7 - gmail_edit_keymap removed (no longer necessary)
8 - buffer-reset-input-mode command removed (no longer necessary)
10 * overlink_mode rewritten
12 - content_buffer_overlink_change_hook removed
13 - current_content_buffer_overlink_change_hook removed
15 * Hinting now performs a case-sensitive match if the user's text
16 includes upper-case letters.
18 * stackoverflow-mode has been renamed to stackexchange-mode.

22 conkeror (0.9.2+git100804-1) unstable; urgency=low
24 * Editing in the minibuffer is now done with the normal editing commands
25 instead of a special set of editing commands. All of the editing
26 commands which begin with the prefix "minibuffer-" have been
27 removed. Also, editing commands are now bound in the keymap
28 text_keymap instead of content_buffer_text_keymap and
29 minibuffer_base_keymap. If you have written custom bindings for
30 editing in your rc, you will need to change [pairs of] bindings like
33 define_key(minibuffer_base_keymap, "C-l", "minibuffer-forward-char");
34 define_key(content_buffer_text_keymap, "C-l", "forward-char");
38 define_key(text_keymap, "C-l", "forward-char");
40 * In hinting mode, right and left are no longer bound to
41 next/previous-hint. Hinting mode now supports editing in the
42 minibuffer, so right and left move the cursor. Down, up, C-n, C-p,
43 C-s, and C-r are all bound to next/previous-hint.
45 * Due to a change in Mozilla as of XULRunner 1.9.3a5pre, Conkeror's
46 feature of automatically loading glue code for extensions is no longer
47 possible. This means that when you have one of the previously
48 supported extensions installed, you will no longer automatically have
49 Conkeror commands for using the extension. The extensions that were
50 previously supported in this way were adblockplus, dom-inspector,
51 noscript, and venkman. If you have any of these extensions installed,
52 you will now have to load the glue module from your rc, with a line
53 like the following, substituting in the appropriate module name:
55 require("dom-inspector");
57 With some of these modules, loading the module when the extension is
58 not installed could result in an error, so to be safe, you could wrap
59 the call to 'require' in a try/catch block:
61 try { require("dom-inspector"); } catch (e) {}
63 Further information: http://bugs.conkeror.org/issue272
65 * The variable download_buffer_automatic_open_target can no longer be an
66 array of two targets. This is a reversion from 2009-06-07 back to how
67 it was before. The behavior of the download-show command is now
68 configured independently of this variable. To configure download-show,
69 use set_handler and alternates. The following handlers are provided:
70 download_show_new_window, download_show_new_buffer,
71 download_show_new_buffer_background. The default handler of
72 download_show is alternates(download_show_new_buffer,
73 download_show_new_window).

79 * Function load_rc no longer supports loading arbitrary js files. Use
82 * Function load_rc_file removed. Use load instead.
84 * call_after_load now takes a feature name, not a filename. In general
85 this simply means trimming off any ".js" extension.
87 * Modules API overhaul (already included in 0.9.2-1 and caused the
88 uploads 0.9.2+git100324-1 and -2):
89 - Modules should have an in_module assertion as their first
90 expression. For modules to be loaded directly into application
91 scope, it should be in_module(null);
92 - Modules should have as their last expression a provide call, like
93 provide("feature"); where "feature" is the name of the feature
94 provided by the module.

103 * M-< and home keys now scroll to the top left corner of the buffer.
105 * minibuffer.read_url now returns a load_spec instead of a simple

114 conkeror (0.9.1+git100131-1) unstable; urgency=low
116 Please see http://conkeror.org/BreakingChanges for the complete list of
117 breaking changes. Just the most important ones are listed here.
119 * mime_type_external_handlers removed. Replaced by
120 external_content_handlers.
122 * define_buffer_mode, define_input_mode, and define_page_mode no longer
123 take display_name or doc as positional arguments. They are now given
124 as keyword arguments: $display_name and $doc.
126 * The variable browser_automatic_form_focus_window_duration was renamed
127 to block_content_focus_change_duration.
129 * The commands follow-current, follow-current-new-buffer,
130 follow-current-new-buffer-background, and follow-current-new-window
133 * browser_prevent_automatic_form_focus_mode has been renamed and put in
134 its own file. To use this mode, simply do this:
135 require("block-content-focus-change.js");
137 * The default of hints_auto_exit_delay has been changed to 0.
139 This change means that by default, the user has to hit return to exit
140 the hints interaction. This change makes Conkeror's UI more
141 predictable for new users, less prone to run unintended commands
142 because of extra keystrokes outside the timeout window, and removes
143 assumptions about people's typing speed, browsing style, and focus of
144 attention when using the hints system.
146 To use the hints-auto-exit feature, put a line like the following in
147 your rc, adjusting the number to suit your preference. 500 was the old
150 hints_auto_exit_delay = 500;

154 conkeror (0.9~git090708-1) unstable; urgency=low
156 The conkeror Debian package now works with the upcoming experimental
157 xulrunner-1.9.1 packages (see http://glandium.org/blog/?p=370) in
160 Since conkeror still throws much more warnings with xulrunner 1.9.1 than
161 with 1.9.0.x, for now the package currently prefers 1.9.0.x over 1.9.1
162 if both are installed.
164 Call "xulrunner-1.9.1 /usr/share/conkeror/application.ini" if you have
165 xulrunner-1.9 and xulrunner-1.9.1 installed and want to checkout
166 conkeror in combination with xulrunner 1.9.1.

170 conkeror (0.9~git090617-1) unstable; urgency=low
172 There were a few changes since the last conkeror version in Debian which
173 may cause troubles to users of the previous version.
175 Short summary follows:
176 * The key bindings `<<` and `>>` are now simply `<` and `>`.
177 * page-mode keymaps are now declared in the `define_page_mode` form with
178 a new keyword argument, `$keymaps`. See
179 http://conkeror.org/WritingPageModes for more information about the
181 * `default_directory` and `set_default_directory` have been removed and
182 replaced by the variable `cwd`.
183 * buffer-local variables are now indexed by `buffer.local.foo`.
184 page-local variables are indexed by `buffer.page.local.foo`.
185 * The command `send-ret` was removed since it is redundant of the
186 module `global-overlay-keymap`.
187 * Buffer-local cwd is no longer set or inherited automatically.
188 * `download-cancel` is now bound to `d` instead of `C-g`, and it asks
190 * In order to make Conkeror compatible with native toolkit theming,
191 Conkeror's themes have undergone a big rewrite:
192 - Conkeror no longer specifies its own gui colors.
193 - The blackened theme no longer exists.
194 - It is no longer possible to theme scrollbars.
195 From now on, the right way to change Conkeror's gui colors is to do so
196 at the OS level, for example, with a GTK theme.
197 * Conkeror has now session saving support. See
198 http://conkeror.org/Sessions for details.
200 See http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.mozilla.conkeror/1547 and
201 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.mozilla.conkeror/1451 for the
202 details and what to change in case you run over some removed or renamed
203 functions or variables.

207 conkeror (0.9~git090223-1) unstable; urgency=low
209 There were a few changes since the last conkeror version in Debian which
210 may cause troubles to users of the previous version:
211 * Changes to the behaviour of the universal argument C-u.
212 * Loads now ~/.conkerorrc as the default rc file
213 * Many simple webjumps previously enabled by default have been removed
214 from upstream. Non-default webjumps are now collected and shared at
215 http://conkeror.org/Webjumps
216 * Many additional keybindings, e.g.
217 - pasting current paste buffer content bound to `C-y'
218 - new command `submit-form' bound to `C-c C-c' in forms
219 * Incremental search for URLs in the mini-buffer can currently include
220 _either_ the history or the bookmarks, but not both at the same
221 time. See http://bugs.conkeror.org/issue10 for details on choosing
