2008-XX-XX: * version 2.0 (probably) * IMPORTANT: Due to much improved autocompletion, changed default 'complete' option value to 'sfl', listing intelligent Firefox location bar results. Removed possibility to use 'h' in 'complete'. * IMPORTANT: AlwaysHint modes were removed as they didn't make too much sense with the new hint system * IMPORTANT: command actions now take an args object, returned from commands.parseArgs, as their first argument. This will break any commands not using the args parser explicitly. The old string value is now available via args.string. * IMPORTANT: 'verbose' is now used for message levels. Logging is controlled by the extensions.liberator.loglevel preference. * IMPORTANT: :viusage and :exusage now jump to the help index, use the special versions for the old behavior * IMPORTANT: renamed Startup and Quit autocmd events to VimperatorEnter and VimperatorLeave respectively * remove spaces and newlines when open urls starting with http:// or similar before :o http://linux .com would search for http://linux and for .com, now it just opens linux.com. Also handy when pasting broken urls with p or P. * add 'wildcase' option * 'linkbgcolor', 'linkfgcolor', ... have been replaced with highlight groups, HintElem and HintActive * new 'followhints' option * :buffers supports a filter now to only list buffers matching filter (vim incompatible, but consistent with other commands) * Favicon support in many places * add 'Fullscreen' autocommmand * add :colorscheme * multibyte support for hints (thanks Xie&Tian) * add 'exrc' * add 'errorbells' * add shell command completion for :! * add :map to prevent a mapping from being echoed * add guioptions=nN to number tabs * add :loadplugins command * add . mapping * add N% normal mode command * add interpolation for items such as to autocommands * add -nargs, -complete, -bang, and -count attribute support to :command * much improved completion support, including javascript, option, and search keyword * add / and / command-line mappings for selecting the previous and next history items * remove 'hintstyle', 'hlsearchstyle' and 'visualbellstyle' - use :highlight {Hint,Search,Bell} * add :highlight * add :optionusage * add :doautocmd and :doautoall * add :style and :delstyle commands, allow :so to source stylesheets * add DOMLoad autocmd event * add :messages and 'messages' * add :runtime * add 'runtimepath' * allow ; hints to work in the multiline output widget * add :scriptnames * add commandline completion to 'activate', 'cpt', 'defsearch', 'pageinfo', 'newtab' and 'popups' * add 'helpfile' option * add 'wildignore' option * add :finish command * new events BookmarkAdd, ShellCmdPost, VimperatorLeavePre, DownloadPost * add 'cdpath' option * allow :dialog to open the cookies manager * add 'loadplugins' option * add count support to C-^ (Kazuo) * add 'eventignore' option * add :tabdetach command * new ;b extended hint mode (thanks Daniel Schaffrath) * :qa! and :q! quit forcefully, as in vim * stop macro playback on * :bmark now updates a bookmark, if possible. :bmark! adds a new one * many bug fixes 2008-08-16: * version 1.2 * IMPORTANT: changed :command to behave like Vim's version. Eg. An alert command specified previously as :command AlertMe alert(args) should now be defined as :command AlertMe :js alert() * IMPORTANT: changed (again) the default keybinding to temporarily disable all Vimperator keybindings from ctrl-q to ctrl-z since many users complained about hitting ctrl-q twice and exiting vimperator * IMPORTANT: removed old :buffers! buffer window, as it was ugly and slightly broken use "B" or :buffers instead * IMPORTANT: input fields are not blured anymore by default after a page has loaded use :set [no]focuscontent to control the behavior (thanks Paul Sobey for the generous donation which made this behavior possible) * IMPORTANT: ctrl-x/a never take possible negative URLs into account, it was just too unpredictable * performance fix by using cached history, should save about 5ms on each pageload * add :emenu for accessing the Firefox main menu items from the command line * add 'shell' and 'shellcmdflag' options * :tabprevious, :bprevious, :tabnext, :bnext and friends now accept a prefix count * add :comclear and :delcommand * add a special version to :hardcopy to skip the Print dialog * add :bl[ast], :bf[irst], :br[ewind] to go to first/last tab * add :bn[ext], :bp[revious], :bN[ext] to switch to next/previous tab * add :pagestyle command to allow for switching between alternate style sheets * add :b# to select the alternate buffer * add :tabduplicate command * new 'urlseparator' option for specifying the regexp used to split the arg to :open, :tabopen and :winopen * :set editor now accepts quoting/escaping to use an editor with spaces in the path * support for :%foo as a count for commands (not yet widely used) * show informative message when a background tab was loaded, especially useful with a hidden tab bar. * new "l" flag for 'complete' to reuse the Firefox awesome bar for getting better completions for :open.
