|
|
Released on 2020-12-27
|
|
|
|
No changes since 0.14.0rc2.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
Released on 2020-12-13
|
|
|
|
* ~/.elinks/allow.txt - list of allowed url prefixes for js
|
|
|
|
ELinks 0.14.0rc1
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
Released on 2020-12-06
|
|
|
|
* dblatex for pdf. PR #64
|
|

|
|
|
|
Note that, to compile with javascript support you must compile by g++ with -fpermissive option.
|
|
There is a lot of warnings. Unfortunately JS often crashes. Without help from someone familiar
|
|
with SpiderMonkey, we won't go far.
|
|
|
|
As you might notice, I renamed repo to elinks.
|
|
|
|
Thanks to all involved in this release.
|
|
|

|
ELinks 0.13.0:
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Released on 2019-12-27.
|
|
|
|
Incompatibilities:
|
|
|
|
* The protocol.fsp.sort option has been removed. ELinks always sorts.
|
|
* bug 1024: Verify the host name or IP address in the server certificate
|
|
if connection.ssl.cert_verify is not 0.
|
|
|
|
Miscellaneous:
|
|
|
|
* The configure script is no longer part of tarball, you must generate it.
|
|
For example running ./autogen.sh
|
|
* major bug 181: Slave ELinks processes can now run an external editor.
|
|
This used to work in the master process only.
|
|
* major bug 722: Filter CSS according to media types. New option
|
|
document.css.media.
|
|
* bug 638: Propagate the existence of $DISPLAY from slave terminals to
|
|
mailcap test commands.
|
|
* bugs 762, 1082: Small memory leak in goto_current_link/goto_imgmap
|
|
* bug 963: New option document.css.ignore_display_none.
|
|
* bug 977: Fixed crash when opening in new tab a non link with onclick
|
|
attribute.
|
|
* bug 1008: File upload fields in HTML forms now stream the files to
|
|
the server, instead of reading them to memory in advance. This lets
|
|
you upload larger files. The downsides are that ELinks may use a
|
|
cached response even if you have modified a file between requests,
|
|
and that ELinks can send inconsistent data if you modify a file
|
|
while it is being uploaded.
|
|
* bug 1054: Don't abort downloads when closing the terminal from which
|
|
they were started. When such a download ends, display the message
|
|
in the most recently used terminal. If the user chooses
|
|
``Background and Notify'' via the download manager in some terminal,
|
|
reassociate the download with that terminal. These changes do not
|
|
apply to downloads to external handlers.
|
|
* Really retry forever when connection.retries = 0.
|
|
* enhancement: Session-specific options. Any options changed with
|
|
toggle-* actions no longer affect other tabs or other terminals.
|
|
* Do not crash when document.browse.minimum_refresh_time = 0 and
|
|
a document has a meta refresh with a delay of 0.
|
|
* Properly update link highlighting and status bar information when the
|
|
repeat prefix is changed.
|
|
* Handle SSL rehandshakes
|
|
* Fix compatibility with Ruby >= 1.9
|
|
* enhancement 15: Domain-specific options. Use set_domain in
|
|
elinks.conf to e.g. disable cookies for google.com. The option
|
|
manager window does not yet support this.
|
|
* enhancement 867: Use bracketed paste mode on xterm. This requires
|
|
xterm patch #228 or later configured with --enable-readline-mouse.
|
|
* enhancement 824: Experimental support for combining characters.
|
|
See features.conf for details.
|
|
* enhancement: Add a new entry Link Info under Link main menu.
|
|
* enhancement: Indicate backgrounded downloads using an unused led.
|
|
* enhancement: Display the number of ECMAScript interpreters that have
|
|
been allocated for documents in the Resources dialog.
|
|
* Fedora enhancement 346861: Add support for nss_compat_ossl library
|
|
(OpenSSL replacement).
|
|
* enhancement: ``elinks --dump'' uses box-drawing characters if supported
|
|
by the charset.
|
|
* enhancement 1070: Support 256 colors on fbterm-1.4.
|
|
* enhancement 1075: Scrolling the entire contents of dialog boxes.
|
|
Especially useful for multi-file BitTorrent downloads.
|
|
* Report if the Lua function edit_bookmark_dialog receives the wrong
|
|
number or types of arguments instead of silently failing.
|
|
* enhancement: Add ``Invalidate'' button to the cache manager.
|
|
* enhancement: Add ``Search contents'' button to the cache manager with
|
|
which one can search through the cache items' data rather than their
|
|
metadata.
|
|
* enhancement: Add rudimentary support for the HTML5 media elements,
|
|
<video> and <audio>.
|
|
* enhancement: Add move-half-page-up and move-half-page-down actions.
|
|
* enhancement: Add option to change overlap for vertical scrolling.
|
|
* enhancement: HTML meta refresh allows semicolons in URLs, and the
|
|
syntax is more like in Firefox.
|
|
* link against lua51 not lua50
|
|
* SpiderMonkey must be mozjs-17.0. This version is latest with C API.
|
|
Find it with pkg-config.
|
|
* using iconv for some multibyte charsets. It works if the terminal codepage
|
|
is UTF-8. More charsets will be added on demand.
|
|
* enhancement: support SSL client certificate
|
|
* python scripting is Python3 only
|
|
* brotli and zstd encodings
|
|
* possibility to make use of libevent instead of select for event loop
|
|
* terminfo queries for output (not input) as compilation option
|
|
|
|
ELinks 0.12pre6
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
Released on 2012-10-30.
|
|
|
|
Security fix:
|
|
|
|
* bug 1124, CVE-2012-4545: Do not delegate GSSAPI credentials in HTTP
|
|
Negotiate or GSS-Negotiate authentication. Reported by Marko Myllynen.
|
|
(ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first release that supported GSSAPI; earlier
|
|
releases are not vulnerable.)
|
|
|
|
Fixed crashes and hangs:
|
|
|
|
* critical bug 943: Don't let user JavaScripts call any methods of
|
|
``elinks.action'' in tabs that do not have the focus. If a tab was
|
|
closed with ``elinks.action.tab_close'' while it had pop-up windows,
|
|
ELinks could crash; as a precaution, don't allow other actions
|
|
either. (ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first release that supported
|
|
``elinks.action''.)
|
|
* critical bug 1083: Avoid an infinite loop when trying to decompress
|
|
malformed data. Caused by the bug 1068 fix in ELinks 0.12pre3.
|
|
* Fix a possible crash or information disclosure on big-endian 64-bit
|
|
systems using HTTP Negotiate or GSS-Negotiate authentication.
|
|
|
|
Incompatibilities:
|
|
|
|
* Dropped support for SEE. (ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first release
|
|
that supported SEE.)
|
|
* Guile 2.0.0 (released on 2011-02-16) changed its license to
|
|
LGPLv3-or-later, which is not compatible with the GPLv2 that covers
|
|
ELinks. Also, Guile has deprecated many of the functions that
|
|
ELinks calls.
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
* major bug 764: Correctly initialize options on big-endian 64-bit
|
|
systems.
|
|
* bug 983: Give preference to the Content-Type specified in the HTTP
|
|
header over that specified via the HTML meta tag.
|
|
* bug 1084: Allow option names containing '+' and '*' in the option
|
|
manager.
|
|
* bug 1112: Map most numeric character references € ... Ÿ
|
|
to graphical characters also when the output charset is UTF-8.
|
|
(ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first release that supported UTF-8 as the
|
|
terminal charset, and ELinks 0.12pre5 was the first release that
|
|
supported UTF-8 as the dump charset.)
|
|
* minor bug 1113: Fix a small memory leak if a mailcap file is malformed.
|
|
* minor bug 1114: Decode SGML entities and NCRs only once in link/@title
|
|
and other attributes.
|
|
* build: Fix several warnings reported by GCC 4.7.1. Harmless at
|
|
runtime but could break the build if configured --enable-debug.
|
|
(This version does not fix all such warnings.)
|
|
|
|
ELinks 0.12pre5:
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
Released on 2009-07-08.
|
|
|
|
* Debian bug 534835: Check the return values of some SpiderMonkey
|
|
functions, to avoid crashes if out of memory.
|
|
* minor bug 1017: To work around HTTP server bugs, disable
|
|
protocol.http.compression by default, until ELinks can report
|
|
decompression errors or automatically retry the connection.
|
|
* enhancement: The French translation was updated.
|
|
|
|
Bugs that should be removed from NEWS before the 0.12.0 release:
|
|
|
|
* critical bug 1081: To fix crashes caused by different definitions of
|
|
regfree() in TRE and in the system libc, link with TRE before any
|
|
other libraries. ELinks 0.12pre4 was the first release that had
|
|
this bug.
|
|
* Searching for more than one fullwidth (e.g. Japanese) character now
|
|
works.
|
|
* bug 1080: Support ``--dump-color-mode'' with ``--dump-charset UTF-8''.
|
|
Neither of those worked before ELinks 0.12pre1.
|
|
|
|
ELinks 0.12pre4:
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
Released on 2009-05-31.
|
|
|
|
Incompatibilities:
|
|
|
|
* Debian build bug 529821: Use ``pkg-config gnutls'' instead of
|
|
``libgnutls-config'', which is not included in GNUTLS 2.7.x.
|
|
You can no longer specify the location of GNUTLS using
|
|
``configure --with-gnutls=DIR''.
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
* critical bug 1077: Fix crash opening a ``javascript:'' link in a new
|
|
tab.
|
|
* Debian bug 528661: If using GNUTLS 2.1.7 or later, disable various
|
|
TLS extensions (including CERT and SERVERNAME) to help handshaking
|
|
with the SSLv3-only bugzilla.novell.com.
|
|
* Debian build bug 526349: Include asciidoc.py from AsciiDoc 7.1.2,
|
|
to remove all dependencies on the installed version.
|
|
* build enhancement: Recognize ``configure --without-tre''.
|
|
|
|
Bugs that should be removed from NEWS before the 0.12.0 release:
|
|
|
|
* critical bug 1071: Fix crash in get_dom_node_child. ELinks 0.12pre1
|
|
was the first release that had this bug.
|
|
* bug 765: Opening a new tab no longer asks about the document of the
|
|
previous tab. ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first release that had this
|
|
bug.
|
|
|
|
ELinks 0.12pre3:
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
Released on 2009-03-29. This release also included the changes listed
|
|
under ``ELinks 0.11.6'' below.
|
|
|
|
Incompatibilities:
|
|
|
|
* bug 1060: Regexp searching now requires the TRE library.
|
|
* lzma disabled by default. It's rarely used and doesn't build with new xz.
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
* critical: Fix assertion failure if IMG/@usemap refers to a different
|
|
file.
|
|
* Preserve newlines in hidden input fields, and submit them as CRLF.
|
|
Previously, they could turn into spaces or disappear entirely.
|
|
* Perl scripts can use modules that dynamically load C libraries, like
|
|
XML::LibXML::SAX does.
|
|
* bug 153: Preserve Unicode characters in XBEL bookmark files.
|
|
However, Unicode in URIs (really IRIs) does not work reliably yet;
|
|
this is being tracked as bug 1066.
|
|
* bug 885: Convert xterm titles to ISO-8859-1 by default, but add an
|
|
option to disable this. When removing control characters from a
|
|
title, note the charset. Don't truncate titles to the width of the
|
|
terminal.
|
|
* bug 1061: Correctly truncate UTF-8 titles in the tab bar.
|
|
* bug 1068: ELinks used to display a blank or truncated page if an
|
|
HTTP/1.1 server sent a compressed body with incorrect Content-Length.
|
|
That has now been fixed, and a new option (protocol.http.compression)
|
|
has been added.
|
|
* Don't crash when the search-toggle-regex action is used and no regular
|
|
expression support is compiled in.
|
|
* minor bug 761: When reading bookmarks from an XBEL file, distinguish
|
|
attribute names from attribute values.
|
|
* enhancement: Updated ISO 8859-7, ISO 8859-16, KOI8-R, and MacRoman.
|
|
|
|
Bugs that should be removed from NEWS before the 0.12.0 release:
|
|
|
|
* critical bug 1067: Fixed a crash in the RSS parser that ``configure
|
|
--enable-html-highlight'' enables. ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first
|
|
release that had this bug.
|
|
* bug 1069: ELinks didn't report ECMAScript errors, even if the
|
|
ecmascript.error_reporting option was turned on. ELinks 0.12pre2
|
|
was the first release that had this bug.
|
|
|
|
ELinks 0.12pre2:
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
Released on 2008-09-21. This release also included the changes listed
|
|
under ``ELinks 0.11.5'' below.
|
|
|
|
* bug 954, enhancement 952: Keep track of ECMAScript form and input
|
|
objects instead of constructing new ones on every access. When the
|
|
corresponding ELinks internal objects are destroyed, detach the
|
|
ECMAScript objects from them, to prevent crashes. (Bug 954 was
|
|
first added in ELinks 0.11.4, and the bug 620 fix in ELinks 0.12pre1
|
|
made crashes more likely.)
|
|
* critical bug 1029 in user SMJS: Prefer JS_CallFunctionValue over
|
|
JS_CallFunction, which can crash if given a closure.
|
|
* critical bug 1031: Use the same JSRuntime for both user SMJS and
|
|
scripts on web pages, to work around SpiderMonkey bug 378918.
|
|
* bug 1013: Don't assume errno values are between 0 and 100000.
|
|
* bug 1022: Add connection.ssl.trusted_ca_file setting for GnuTLS.
|
|
Before this, ELinks did not trust any certificate authorities when
|
|
it used GnuTLS, so certificate verification always failed if you
|
|
enabled it at connection.ssl.cert_verify.
|
|
* bug 1040: Blacklist servers that don't support TLS. This reduces
|
|
SSL errors especially in HTTP POST requests using GnuTLS.
|
|
* bugs 1007, 1041: Display unrecognized lines in FTP directory
|
|
listings, instead of annoying the user with error messages.
|
|
* Hurd bug 22861: Work around select() falsely reporting exceptions
|
|
in pipes.
|
|
* minor bug 951: SpiderMonkey scripting objects used to prevent ELinks
|
|
from removing files from the memory cache.
|
|
* build bug 1044: Check whether -rdynamic works with libraries.
|
|
With Sun Studio 11 on Solaris 9, it reportedly doesn't.
|
|
|
|
Bugs that should be removed from NEWS before the 0.12.0 release:
|
|
|
|
* critical: Fix crash after a tab was opened during reload. This was
|
|
triggered by the bug 620 fix in ELinks 0.12pre1.
|
|
* critical bug 1018: Avoid an assertion failure when selecting a value
|
|
from a pop-up menu for an input field in a tab that is no longer
|
|
current, e.g. because another tab was opened with elinks -remote.
|
|
This bug was first released in ELinks 0.12pre1.
|
|
* major bug 1026 in user SMJS: Protect the callback of elinks.load_uri
|
|
from the garbage collector. The elinks.load_uri method was added in
|
|
ELinks 0.12pre1.
|
|
* bug 955: Reset buttons no longer run FORM/@onsubmit, and
|
|
``harmless'' buttons no longer submit the form. ELinks 0.12pre1
|
|
was the first release that had these bugs.
|
|
* bug 1033: Fix memory leak in ECMAScript window.open. ELinks 0.12pre1
|
|
was the first release that had this bug.
|
|
* bug 1034: ``Content-Encoding: deflate'' allows a zlib header as
|
|
specified in RFC 2616.
|
|
* Global ECMAScript functions alert, open, and setTimeout again work
|
|
with SEE. ELinks 0.12pre1 was the first release that supported SEE
|
|
at all.
|
|
* build bug 1045: Fix ``void function cannot return value'' in
|
|
never_for_this_site() of src/formhist/formhist.c. ELinks 0.12pre1
|
|
was the first release that had this bug.
|
|
|
|
ELinks 0.12pre1:
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
Released on 2008-07-01. This release also included the changes listed
|
|
under ``ELinks 0.11.4'' below.
|
|
|
|
Notable new features:
|
|
|
|
* enhancement 822: UTF-8 as terminal charset, not merely UTF-8 I/O
|
|
of a unibyte codepage as in previous versions. Double-cell (aka
|
|
fullwidth) and supplementary characters work too, but combining
|
|
characters and right-to-left text do not. The only multibyte
|
|
charset ELinks can decode is still UTF-8, so if the server outputs
|
|
e.g. Shift-JIS, you'd better recode with a proxy. See more notes
|
|
in features.conf.
|
|
* enhancement 844: SMB protocol using libsmbclient. This replaces
|
|
the smbclient-based code that was disabled in ELinks 0.11.2.
|
|
Unfortunately, Samba 3.2.0 and later seem GPLv2 incompatible.
|
|
|
|
Incompatibilities:
|
|
|
|
* ECMAScript support is now disabled by default. It has known
|
|
bugs 548 and 771 with which malicious web pages can hang ELinks,
|
|
and its security goals are undocumented. If you must enable
|
|
ECMAScript support, it would be prudent to restrict the ELinks
|
|
process with a sandbox of some kind.
|
|
* ECMAScript support no longer works with SpiderMonkey versions
|
|
earlier than JS1.5 RC3a.
|
|
* Gzip decompression support now requires zlib 1.2.0.2 or later.
|
|
* bugs 871, 752: The numbering of terminal.*.colors no longer depends
|
|
on config options. This change makes elinks.conf portable between
|
|
different configurations but unfortunately not between this and
|
|
previous versions.
|
|
* Changed Python goto_url_hook(current) to goto_url_hook(new). The
|
|
hook can call the new function elinks.current_url() if desired.
|
|
The Python scripting back-end is much more featureful than in
|
|
previous releases, but it is still considered experimental.
|
|
* Guile scripting reads hooks.scm rather than internal-hooks.scm.
|
|
(It still reads user-hooks.scm, too.)
|
|
|
|
Miscellaneous:
|
|
|
|
* critical bug 723: fix dangling pointer crash when following a link
|
|
in a frame
|
|
* critical bug 756: ``assertion (cached)->object.refcount >= 0 failed''
|
|
after HTTP proxy was changed
|
|
* critical bug 869: long mailcap entry buffer overflow (non-security)
|
|
when downloading
|
|
* tabs opened by -remote now go behind existing dialogs
|
|
* major bug 534, enhancement 517: fix HTTP gzip and bzip2
|
|
decompression, and add deflate and LZMA (requires LZMA Utils)
|
|
* major bug 503: various fixes in parsing and updating of elinks.conf
|
|
* Debian bug 257762: turn terminal transparency off by default
|
|
* bug 770: when the user chooses to resume an HTTP download, abort the
|
|
automatically started one and start a new one with the right range
|
|
* bug 724: better parsing of escape sequences and control
|
|
sequences from the terminal
|
|
* bug 948: fix wrong UTF-8 output after the charset menu was used
|
|
* bug 816: convert entity references in input/@value only once
|
|
* bug 916: if a mailcap entry has no %s, provide the file as stdin
|
|
* bug 744: don't change ``//'' to ``/'' in URIs
|
|
* bug 766: speed up CSS
|
|
* bug 355: add documents displayed via ``What to do'' dialog to the
|
|
global history
|
|
* encode and decode filenames in FSP URLs
|
|
* don't use a busy cache entry if it has expired or should be
|
|
reloaded. See elinks-users mail from 28 Oct 2005.
|
|
* several accesskey fixes
|
|
* in Lua: don't write to the string returned by lua_tostring
|
|
* minor bug 972: preserve the background color and underlining in
|
|
spaces when justifying
|
|
* minor bug 284: render closing bracket for HTML element SUB in the
|
|
same line; don't let it fall to the next
|
|
* minor: show quote characters for HTML element Q, rather than italics
|
|
* trivial bug 387: treat 
 inside <pre>...</pre> as a newline
|
|
* trivial bug 930: refresh status bar when key prefix is eaten
|
|
* trivial bug 776: ``elinks -remote http://elinks.cz/'' no longer clears
|
|
the screen
|
|
* enhancement 790: If-Modified-Since and If-None-Match
|
|

|
|
printing of off_t values

|
|
reopen them when incremental rendering reruns the onload script

|
|
source highlighting
