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

232 * enhancements 687, 688: options ui.tabs.top, ui.show_menu_bar_always
233 * enhancement: highlight links as one enters link prefixes
234 * enhancement: backspace backs out the last digit of the prefix
235 * enhancement: in text type-ahead searching, don't follow current link
237 * enhancement: add support for parsing space separated CSS class
239 * enhancement: make meta refresh content attribute parsing more tolerant
240 * enhancement: recognize meta http-equiv="cache-control" even if no
242 * enhancement: mouse wheel support over GPM (contrib/gpm-wheel.patch),
243 and on BSD via moused -z 4
244 * enhancement: 24-bit truecolor mode
245 * enhancement 622: -dump-color-mode

248 * enhancement 381: reduce memory consumption of codepages and some
250 * enhancement in user SMJS: new properties/functions elinks.action,

267 * execute event-handler scripts as function bodies, so ``return''
268 statements work as intended
269 * fix error ``forms.namedItem is not a function''
270 * enhancement: SEE ECMAScript backend, an alternative to SpiderMonkey
271 * enhancement: handling onsubmit
272 * workaround: window.open remembers the last few URLs and doesn't
273 reopen them when incremental rendering reruns the onload script
274 * enhancement: better handling of form.action assignments
275 * enhancement: form[x] looks up controls also by 'id', not only 'name'
276 * enhancement: added document.location.href, input.selectedIndex,
