Vifm v0.13 |
|
5 |
|
---------- |
|
6 |
|
|
|
7 |
|
Thanks to everyone who tried out the beta. |
|

|
|
|

|
Highlights: |
|
10 |
|
|
|
11 |
|
- Faster file-system navigation with a new searching/filtering submode. |
|
12 |
|
|
|
13 |
|
Hitting `<c-y>` after `/` or `=` allows finding and opening consecutive path |
|
14 |
|
components without leaving command-line mode. In this mode keys like |
|
15 |
|
`<c-o>`/`<c-n>`/`<c-p>`/`<left>`/`<home>`/etc. help to refine cursor |
|
16 |
|
position or go to parent directory if necessary. |
|
17 |
|
|
|
18 |
|
- More interactive :compare. |
|
19 |
|
|
|
20 |
|
You can now see stats about file comparison on the status bar and have an |
|
21 |
|
option to easily re-run the comparison while toggling visibility of some of |
|
22 |
|
the groups. |
|
23 |
|
|
|
24 |
|
Also, default file alignment is more natural now. `do` and `dp` handle |
|
25 |
|
selection. You can force ignoring or respecting case in paths. Performance |
|
26 |
|
and memory consumption have been improved in various cases. |
|
27 |
|
|
|
28 |
|
- Mouse support and TUI improvements. |
|
29 |
|
|
|
30 |
|
Once mouse support is enabled, you should be able to perform simple browsing |
|
31 |
|
with just your mouse for those cases when it's more convenient. |
|
32 |
|
|
|
33 |
|
Conflict dialog now always presents basic file metadata for comparison. |
|
34 |
|
Detailed progress dialog has ETA. Ls-like view can now have a fixed number |
|
35 |
|
of columns. |
|
36 |
|
|
|
37 |
|
- Other. |
|
38 |
|
|
|
39 |
|
Formatting of tabs and entry selection in Lua. Changing register's content |
|
40 |
|
via an editor. Explicitly prompting user for input via input() function. |
|
41 |
|
|
|
42 |
|
- Fixes. |
|
43 |
|
|
|
44 |
|
v0.12.1 was supposed to improve escaping on Windows, but it simultaneously |
|
45 |
|
made one old bug more prominent, effectively making things much worse in |
|
46 |
|
some cases. This release remedies that. |
|
47 |
|
|
|
48 |
|
%N macro has been adjusted to fix integration with image preview of Kitty |
|
49 |
|
v0.27+. |
|
50 |
|
|
|
51 |
|
Lots of fixes related to search and various combinations of 'hlsearch', |
|
52 |
|
'incsearch' in different modes. |
|
53 |
|
|
|
54 |
|
Normal and visual modes: |
|
55 |
|
- made Ctrl-E/Ctrl-Y scroll transposed ls-like view horizontally by one column; |
|
56 |
|
- extended do and dp keys to process selection (thanks to Mark S., a.k.a. |
|
57 |
|
Markuzcha). |
|
58 |
|
|
|
59 |
|
:set command and options: |
|
60 |
|
- added 'mouse' option to control when mouse input is handled (not handled by |
|
61 |
|
default); |
|
62 |
|
- added 'navoptions' option to allow tweaking navigation mode a bit (thanks to |
|
63 |
|
filterfalse); |
|
64 |
|
- added 'tabline' option to specify format of the tab line; |
|
65 |
|
- added "columncount:" value to 'lsoptions' to always display fixed number of |
|
66 |
|
columns (thanks to Aleksandr Vysotskiy, a.k.a. loki1368); |
|
67 |
|
- added "rpreview:files" to 'milleroptions' (thanks to aksr). |
|
68 |
|
|
|
69 |
|
Command-line mode: |
|
70 |
|
- changed error reporting for some of the :commands such that now their |
|
71 |
|
failures cause a dialog to appear on sourcing, previously those errors were |
|
72 |
|
printed only to status bar; |
|
73 |
|
- changed implementation of `:compare grouppaths` to juxtapose only files with |
|
74 |
|
identical relative paths (patch by Alexandr Keyp, a.k.a. IAmKapuze); |
|
75 |
|
- added "withicase" and "withrcase" to :compare that force ignoring and |
|
76 |
|
respecting case respectively on comparing file names and paths (thanks to |
|
77 |
|
Jose Riha, a.k.a. jose1711); |
|
78 |
|
- added show* arguments to :compare command to control/switch which sets of |
|
79 |
|
files are displayed (toggling is done by :compare!) (patch by Alexandr Keyp, |
|
80 |
|
a.k.a. IAmKapuze); |
|
81 |
|
- added :amap, :anoremap and :aunmap commands to configure mappings in |
|
82 |
|
navigation mode (thanks to Henrik Holst, a.k.a. hholst80, and dmocek); |
|
83 |
|
- added :regedit command for external editing of register contents (thanks to |
|
84 |
|
Daniel J. Perry, a.k.a. BioBox; patch by Rostislav Tolushkin, a.k.a. |
|
85 |
|
nullptr-deref); |
|
86 |
|
- added Ctrl-Y key to command-line mode. It activates fast navigation that |
|
87 |
|
allows entering deep paths by a series of searches for individual path |
|
88 |
|
components (thanks to Henrik Holst, a.k.a. hholst80, and dmocek); |
|
89 |
|
- added Ctrl-J key to command-line navigation. It leaves the mode without |
|
90 |
|
opening a file/directory (thanks to filterfalse); |
|
91 |
|
- added Ctrl-O key to command-line navigation that goes to parent directory; |
|
92 |
|
- added Ctrl-N/P keys to command-line navigation to move view cursor up/down |
|
93 |
|
(thanks to Henrik Holst, a.k.a. hholst80, and dmocek); |
|
94 |
|
- added Arrows/Home/End/Page Up/Page Down keys to command-line navigation to |
|
95 |
|
move view cursor (thanks to Henrik Holst, a.k.a. hholst80, and dmocek). |
|
96 |
|
|
|
97 |
|
Core: |
|
98 |
|

|
99 |
|
IAmKapuze); |
|
100 |
|
- don't move cursor on search failure during search with a count (patch by |
|
101 |
|
filterfalse); |
|
102 |
|
- specified a few more cases when to show a search message with search |
|
103 |
|
highlighting turned on: if found a match, if wrapping is turned on, and in |
|
104 |
|
visual mode (patch by filterfalse); |
|
105 |
|
- a regular search logic showing messages is applied to n/N (patch by |
|
106 |
|
filterfalse). |
|
107 |
|

|
118 |
|
a.k.a. arturfabriciohahaedgy); |
|
119 |
|
- added filereadable() builtin function mainly as a way to check file's |
|
120 |

presence. |
|
121 |
|
|
|
122 |
|
Menus and dialogs: |
|
123 |

|
Ptasinska, a.k.a. SylEleuth); |
|
125 |
|
- made feedback after pressing dd in :jobs more prominent (thanks to Sylwia |

Packaging: |

|
substitution to get rid of a warning on configuration; |
|
163 |
|
- changed how pthread support is detected by configure script to handle more |

cases (thanks to Markus Elfring, a.k.a. elfring); |

177 |
|
|
|
178 |
|
Only on Windows: |

on Windows (thanks to Phil Runninger). |
|
181 |
|
|
|
182 |
|
Noteworthy fixes: |
|
183 |
|
- fixed abort due to assertion failure on using zx normal mode key after |
|
184 |
|
leaving tree in some cases (thanks to Mark S., a.k.a. Markuzcha); |
|
185 |
|
- fixed asynchronous previewing of symbolic links, which required manual |
|
186 |
|
redraw (thanks to Alexandre Viau); |
|
187 |
|
- fixed FUSE mounting assuming `2>` redirection is supported by the shell, |
|
188 |
|

189 |
|
iron-udjin); |
|
190 |
|
- fixed dialogs not handling non-latin characters well; |
|
191 |

|
194 |
|
- fixed resetting 'hlsearch' during incremental search in visual mode (patch |
|
195 |
|
by filterfalse); |
|
196 |
|
- fixed dropping selected files on empty input during incremental search in |
|
197 |
|
visual mode when 'hlsearch' is set (patch by filterfalse); |
|
198 |
|

|
199 |
|
object was garbage-collected (thanks to PRESFIL); |
|
200 |
|
- fixed 'previewprg' not being respected on switching to view mode (regression |
|
201 |
|
in 0.12-beta) (thanks to Sitaram Chamarty). |
