5 in the http://repo.or.cz/w/elinks.git[gitweb interface]. See the ChangeLog
11 To be released as ELinks 0.12.0.
13 //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
14 This list now contains all the important changes from ELinks 0.11.0 to
15 ELinks 0.12.GIT (4672bad9c73321019c1a2a7695761b8188bd1a8f) and related
16 bug numbers. Each section is sorted by severity and grouped by topic.
18 The list no doubt includes several changes that are not really
19 important enough. Please move them to the separate "should be removed
20 from NEWS" list below, or coalesce several changes into one entry (but
21 do list all bug numbers).
22 //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
26 * enhancement 822: UTF-8 as terminal charset, not merely UTF-8 I/O
27 of a unibyte codepage as in previous versions. Double-cell (aka
28 fullwidth) and supplementary characters work too, but combining
29 characters and right-to-left text do not. The only multibyte
30 charset ELinks can decode is still UTF-8, so if the server outputs
31 e.g. Shift-JIS, you'd better recode with a proxy. See more notes
33 * enhancement 844: SMB protocol using libsmbclient. This replaces
34 the smbclient-based code that was disabled in ELinks 0.11.2.
38 * ECMAScript support is now disabled by default. It has known
39 bugs 548 and 771 with which malicious web pages can hang ELinks,
40 and its security goals are undocumented. If you must enable
41 ECMAScript support, it would be prudent to restrict the ELinks
42 process with a sandbox of some kind.
43 * ECMAScript support no longer works with SpiderMonkey versions
44 earlier than JS1.5 RC3a.
45 * Gzip decompression support now requires zlib 1.2.0.2 or later.
46 * bugs 871, 752: The numbering of terminal.*.colors no longer depends
47 on config options. This change makes elinks.conf portable between
48 different configurations but unfortunately not between this and
50 * Changed Python goto_url_hook(current) to goto_url_hook(new). The
51 hook can call the new function elinks.current_url() if desired.
52 The Python scripting back-end is much more featureful than in
53 previous releases, but it is still considered experimental.
54 * Guile scripting reads hooks.scm rather than internal-hooks.scm.
55 (It still reads user-hooks.scm, too.)
59 * critical bug 723: fix dangling pointer crash when following a link
61 * critical bug 756: ``assertion (cached)->object.refcount >= 0 failed''
62 after HTTP proxy was changed
63 * critical bug 869: long mailcap entry buffer overflow (non-security)
65 * tabs opened by -remote now go behind existing dialogs
66 * major bug 534, enhancement 517: fix HTTP gzip and bzip2
67 decompression, and add deflate and LZMA (requires LZMA Utils)
68 * major bug 503: various fixes in parsing and updating of elinks.conf
69 * Debian bug 257762: turn terminal transparency off by default
70 * bug 724: better parsing of escape sequences and control
71 sequences from the terminal
72 * bug 948: fix wrong UTF-8 output after the charset menu was used
73 * bug 816: convert entity references in input/@value only once
74 * bug 916: if a mailcap entry has no %s, provide the file as stdin
75 * bug 744: don't change ``//'' to ``/'' in URIs
76 * bug 766: speed up CSS
77 * bug 355: add documents displayed via ``What to do'' dialog to the
79 * encode and decode filenames in FSP URLs
80 * don't use a busy cache entry if it has expired or should be
81 reloaded. See elinks-users mail from 28 Oct 2005.
82 * several accesskey fixes
83 * in Lua: don't write to the string returned by lua_tostring
84 * minor bug 972: preserve the background color and underlining in
85 spaces when justifying
86 * minor bug 284: render closing bracket for HTML element SUB in the
87 same line; don't let it fall to the next
88 * minor: show quote characters for HTML element Q, rather than italics
89 * trivial bug 387: treat 
 inside <pre>...</pre> as a newline
90 * trivial bug 930: refresh status bar when key prefix is eaten
91 * trivial bug 776: ``elinks -remote http://elinks.cz/'' no longer clears
93 * enhancement 121: if a mailcap entry indicates 'copiousoutput', ELinks
94 itself acts as a pager
95 * enhancement 790: If-Modified-Since and If-None-Match
96 * enhancement: HTTP negotiate-auth using GSSAPI
97 * enhancement: FSP progress indicator and password prompt
98 * enhancement: autocreate directories needed to download a file
99 * enhancement: ``Add server'' button in the cookie manager
100 * enhancement 887: ``Save'' in the cookie manager now saves cookies
102 * enhancement 145: internal clipboard support

106 * enhancement: new edit actions kill-word-back, move-backward-word,
108 * enhancements 687, 688: options ui.tabs.top, ui.show_menu_bar_always
109 * enhancement: highlight links as one enters link prefixes
110 * enhancement: backspace backs out the last digit of the prefix
111 * enhancement: in text type-ahead searching, don't follow current link

116 * enhancement: recognize meta http-equiv="cache-control" even if no
118 * enhancement: mouse wheel support over GPM (contrib/gpm-wheel.patch),
119 and on BSD via moused -z 4
120 * enhancement: 24-bit truecolor mode
121 * enhancement 622: -dump-color-mode
122 * enhancement 994: treat only termios.c_cc[VERASE] as "Backspace"
123 * enhancement: support Ctrl+Alt+letter key combinations
124 * enhancement 381: reduce memory consumption of codepages and some
126 * enhancement in user SMJS: new properties/functions elinks.action,
127 elinks.execute, elinks.globhist, elinks.load_uri, elinks.vs
129 Build system and compile-time errors (ignore if you don't build ELinks):
131 * serious Debian bug 464384: fix warnings in alignof, ssl_connect, and
132 printing of off_t values

145 * fix error ``forms.namedItem is not a function''
146 * enhancement: SEE ECMAScript backend, an alternative to SpiderMonkey
