8 ELinks 0.12pre3.GIT now:
9 ------------------------
11 To be released as 0.12pre4, 0.12rc1, or even 0.12.0. This branch also
12 includes the changes listed under ``ELinks 0.11.6.GIT now'' below.
16 * Debian build bug 529821: Use ``pkg-config gnutls'' instead of
17 ``libgnutls-config'', which is not included in GNUTLS 2.7.x.
18 You can no longer specify the location of GNUTLS using
19 ``configure --with-gnutls=DIR''.
23 * critical bug 1071: Fix crash in get_dom_node_child.
24 * Debian bug 528661: If using GNUTLS 2.1.7 or later, disable various
25 TLS extensions (including CERT and SERVERNAME) to help handshaking
26 with the SSLv3-only bugzilla.novell.com.
27 * Debian build bug 526349: Include asciidoc.py from AsciiDoc 7.1.2,
28 to remove all dependencies on the installed version.
29 * build enhancement: Recognize ``configure --without-tre''.
31 Bugs that should be removed from NEWS before the 0.12.0 release:
33 * bug 765: Opening a new tab no longer asks about the document of the
34 previous tab. ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first release that had this
40 Released on 2009-03-29. This release also included the changes listed
41 under ``ELinks 0.11.6'' below.
45 * bug 1060: Regexp searching now requires the TRE library.
46 * lzma disabled by default. It's rarely used and doesn't build with new xz.
50 * critical: Fix assertion failure if IMG/@usemap refers to a different
52 * Preserve newlines in hidden input fields, and submit them as CRLF.
53 Previously, they could turn into spaces or disappear entirely.
54 * Perl scripts can use modules that dynamically load C libraries, like
55 XML::LibXML::SAX does.
56 * bug 153: Preserve Unicode characters in XBEL bookmark files.
57 However, Unicode in URIs (really IRIs) does not work reliably yet;
58 this is being tracked as bug 1066.
59 * bug 885: Convert xterm titles to ISO-8859-1 by default, but add an
60 option to disable this. When removing control characters from a
61 title, note the charset. Don't truncate titles to the width of the
63 * bug 1061: Correctly truncate UTF-8 titles in the tab bar.
64 * bug 1068: ELinks used to display a blank or truncated page if an
65 HTTP/1.1 server sent a compressed body with incorrect Content-Length.
66 That has now been fixed, and a new option (protocol.http.compression)
68 * Don't crash when the search-toggle-regex action is used and no regular
69 expression support is compiled in.
70 * minor bug 761: When reading bookmarks from an XBEL file, distinguish
71 attribute names from attribute values.
72 * enhancement: Updated ISO 8859-7, ISO 8859-16, KOI8-R, and MacRoman.
74 Bugs that should be removed from NEWS before the 0.12.0 release:
76 * critical bug 1067: Fixed a crash in the RSS parser that ``configure
77 --enable-html-highlight'' enables. ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first
78 release that supported RSS at all.
79 * bug 1069: ELinks didn't report ECMAScript errors, even if the
80 ecmascript.error_reporting option was turned on. ELinks 0.12pre2
81 was the first release that had this bug.
86 Released on 2008-09-21. This release also included the changes listed
87 under ``ELinks 0.11.5'' below.
89 * bug 954, enhancement 952: Keep track of ECMAScript form and input
90 objects instead of constructing new ones on every access. When the
91 corresponding ELinks internal objects are destroyed, detach the
92 ECMAScript objects from them, to prevent crashes. (Bug 954 was
93 first added in ELinks 0.11.4, and the bug 620 fix in ELinks 0.12pre1
94 made crashes more likely.)
95 * critical bug 1029 in user SMJS: Prefer JS_CallFunctionValue over
96 JS_CallFunction, which can crash if given a closure.
97 * critical bug 1031: Use the same JSRuntime for both user SMJS and
98 scripts on web pages, to work around SpiderMonkey bug 378918.
99 * bug 1013: Don't assume errno values are between 0 and 100000.
100 * bug 1022: Add connection.ssl.trusted_ca_file setting for GnuTLS.
101 Before this, ELinks did not trust any certificate authorities when
102 it used GnuTLS, so certificate verification always failed if you
103 enabled it at connection.ssl.cert_verify.
104 * bug 1040: Blacklist servers that don't support TLS. This reduces
105 SSL errors especially in HTTP POST requests using GnuTLS.
106 * bugs 1007, 1041: Display unrecognized lines in FTP directory
107 listings, instead of annoying the user with error messages.
108 * Hurd bug 22861: Work around select() falsely reporting exceptions
110 * minor bug 951: SpiderMonkey scripting objects used to prevent ELinks
111 from removing files from the memory cache.
112 * build bug 1044: Check whether -rdynamic works with libraries.
113 With Sun Studio 11 on Solaris 9, it reportedly doesn't.
115 Bugs that should be removed from NEWS before the 0.12.0 release:
117 * critical: Fix crash after a tab was opened during reload. This was
118 triggered by the bug 620 fix in ELinks 0.12pre1.
119 * critical bug 1018: Avoid an assertion failure when selecting a value
120 from a pop-up menu for an input field in a tab that is no longer
121 current, e.g. because another tab was opened with elinks -remote.
122 This bug was first released in ELinks 0.12pre1.
123 * major bug 1026 in user SMJS: Protect the callback of elinks.load_uri
124 from the garbage collector. The elinks.load_uri method was added in
126 * bug 955: Reset buttons no longer run FORM/@onsubmit, and
127 ``harmless'' buttons no longer submit the form. ELinks 0.12pre1
128 was the first release that had these bugs.
129 * bug 1033: Fix memory leak in ECMAScript window.open. ELinks 0.12pre1
130 was the first release that had this bug.
131 * bug 1034: ``Content-Encoding: deflate'' allows a zlib header as
132 specified in RFC 2616.
133 * Global ECMAScript functions alert, open, and setTimeout again work
134 with SEE. ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first release that supported SEE
136 * build bug 1045: Fix ``void function cannot return value'' in
137 never_for_this_site() of src/formhist/formhist.c. ELinks 0.12pre1
138 was the first release that had this bug.
143 Released on 2008-07-01. This release also included the changes listed
144 under ``ELinks 0.11.4'' below.
146 Notable new features:
148 * enhancement 822: UTF-8 as terminal charset, not merely UTF-8 I/O
149 of a unibyte codepage as in previous versions. Double-cell (aka
150 fullwidth) and supplementary characters work too, but combining
151 characters and right-to-left text do not. The only multibyte
152 charset ELinks can decode is still UTF-8, so if the server outputs
153 e.g. Shift-JIS, you'd better recode with a proxy. See more notes
155 * enhancement 844: SMB protocol using libsmbclient. This replaces
156 the smbclient-based code that was disabled in ELinks 0.11.2.
157 Unfortunately, Samba 3.2.0 and later seem GPLv2 incompatible.
161 * ECMAScript support is now disabled by default. It has known
162 bugs 548 and 771 with which malicious web pages can hang ELinks,
163 and its security goals are undocumented. If you must enable
164 ECMAScript support, it would be prudent to restrict the ELinks
165 process with a sandbox of some kind.
166 * ECMAScript support no longer works with SpiderMonkey versions
167 earlier than JS1.5 RC3a.
168 * Gzip decompression support now requires zlib 1.2.0.2 or later.
169 * bugs 871, 752: The numbering of terminal.*.colors no longer depends
170 on config options. This change makes elinks.conf portable between
171 different configurations but unfortunately not between this and
173 * Changed Python goto_url_hook(current) to goto_url_hook(new). The
174 hook can call the new function elinks.current_url() if desired.
175 The Python scripting back-end is much more featureful than in
176 previous releases, but it is still considered experimental.
177 * Guile scripting reads hooks.scm rather than internal-hooks.scm.
178 (It still reads user-hooks.scm, too.)
182 * critical bug 723: fix dangling pointer crash when following a link
184 * critical bug 756: ``assertion (cached)->object.refcount >= 0 failed''
185 after HTTP proxy was changed
186 * critical bug 869: long mailcap entry buffer overflow (non-security)
188 * tabs opened by -remote now go behind existing dialogs
189 * major bug 534, enhancement 517: fix HTTP gzip and bzip2
190 decompression, and add deflate and LZMA (requires LZMA Utils)
191 * major bug 503: various fixes in parsing and updating of elinks.conf
192 * Debian bug 257762: turn terminal transparency off by default
193 * bug 770: when the user chooses to resume an HTTP download, abort the
194 automatically started one and start a new one with the right range
195 * bug 724: better parsing of escape sequences and control
196 sequences from the terminal
197 * bug 948: fix wrong UTF-8 output after the charset menu was used
198 * bug 816: convert entity references in input/@value only once
199 * bug 916: if a mailcap entry has no %s, provide the file as stdin
200 * bug 744: don't change ``//'' to ``/'' in URIs
201 * bug 766: speed up CSS
202 * bug 355: add documents displayed via ``What to do'' dialog to the
204 * encode and decode filenames in FSP URLs
205 * don't use a busy cache entry if it has expired or should be
206 reloaded. See elinks-users mail from 28 Oct 2005.
207 * several accesskey fixes
208 * in Lua: don't write to the string returned by lua_tostring
209 * minor bug 972: preserve the background color and underlining in
210 spaces when justifying
211 * minor bug 284: render closing bracket for HTML element SUB in the
212 same line; don't let it fall to the next
213 * minor: show quote characters for HTML element Q, rather than italics
214 * trivial bug 387: treat 
 inside <pre>...</pre> as a newline
215 * trivial bug 930: refresh status bar when key prefix is eaten
216 * trivial bug 776: ``elinks -remote http://elinks.cz/'' no longer clears

232 * enhancement: highlight links as one enters link prefixes
233 * enhancement: backspace backs out the last digit of the prefix
234 * enhancement: in text type-ahead searching, don't follow current link
236 * enhancement: add support for parsing space separated CSS class
238 * enhancement: make meta refresh content attribute parsing more tolerant
239 * enhancement: recognize meta http-equiv="cache-control" even if no
241 * enhancement: mouse wheel support over GPM (contrib/gpm-wheel.patch),
242 and on BSD via moused -z 4
243 * enhancement: 24-bit truecolor mode
244 * enhancement 622: -dump-color-mode

246 * enhancement: support Ctrl+Alt+letter key combinations
247 * enhancement 381: reduce memory consumption of codepages and some
249 * enhancement in user SMJS: new properties/functions elinks.action,

255 printing of off_t values
256 * bug 725: fix version checking for Ruby in 'configure'

258 rest before propagating
259 * enhancement: make uninstall
260 * experimental enhancements: --with-python=DIRECTORY, --with-gc=DIRECTORY
261 * experimental enhancement: Win32 port (build with MinGW MSYS)
263 Changes in the experimental ECMAScript support:
265 * disabled by default, as mentioned under ``Incompatibilities'' above
266 * execute event-handler scripts as function bodies, so ``return''
267 statements work as intended
268 * fix error ``forms.namedItem is not a function''
269 * enhancement: SEE ECMAScript backend, an alternative to SpiderMonkey
270 * enhancement: handling onsubmit
271 * workaround: window.open remembers the last few URLs and doesn't
272 reopen them when incremental rendering reruns the onload script
273 * enhancement: better handling of form.action assignments
274 * enhancement: form[x] looks up controls also by 'id', not only 'name'
275 * enhancement: added document.location.href, input.selectedIndex,
