ELinks 0.12pre5.GIT now:
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
To be released as 0.12pre6 or 0.12rc1.
|
|
|
|
* 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.
|
|
* minor bug 1113: Fix a small memory leak if a mailcap file is malformed.
|
|
|
|
Bugs that should be removed from NEWS before the 0.12.0 release:
|
|
|
|
* 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.
|
|
* 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.
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
* enhancement: HTTP negotiate-auth using GSSAPI
|
|
* enhancement: FSP progress indicator and password prompt
|
|
* enhancement: autocreate directories needed to download a file
|
|
* enhancement: ``Add server'' button in the cookie manager
|
|
* enhancement 887: ``Save'' in the cookie manager now saves cookies
|
|
even if unmodified
|
|
* enhancement 145: internal clipboard support
|
|
* enhancement: new main actions move-cursor-line-start,
|
|
move-link-down-line, move-link-left-line, move-link-right-line,
|
|
move-link-up-line
|
|
* enhancement: new edit actions kill-word-back, move-backward-word,
|
|
move-forward-word
|
|
* enhancements 687, 688: options ui.tabs.top, ui.show_menu_bar_always
|
|
* enhancement: highlight links as one enters link prefixes
|
|
* enhancement: backspace backs out the last digit of the prefix
|
|
* enhancement: in text type-ahead searching, don't follow current link
|
|
on enter
|
|
* enhancement: add support for parsing space separated CSS class
|
|
attribute values
|
|
* enhancement: make meta refresh content attribute parsing more tolerant
|
|
* enhancement: recognize meta http-equiv="cache-control" even if no
|
|
refresh
|
|
* enhancement: mouse wheel support over GPM (contrib/gpm-wheel.patch),
|
|
and on BSD via moused -z 4
|
|
* enhancement: 24-bit truecolor mode
|
|
* enhancement 622: -dump-color-mode
|
|
* enhancement 994: treat only termios.c_cc[VERASE] as "Backspace"
|
|
* enhancement: support Ctrl+Alt+letter key combinations
|
|
* enhancement 381: reduce memory consumption of codepages and some
|
|
other arrays
|
|
* enhancement in user SMJS: new properties/functions elinks.action,
|
|
elinks.execute, elinks.globhist, elinks.load_uri, elinks.vs
|
|
|
|
Build system and compile-time errors (ignore if you don't build ELinks):
|
|
|
|
* serious Debian bug 464384: fix warnings in alignof, ssl_connect, and
|
|
printing of off_t values
|
|
* bug 725: fix version checking for Ruby in 'configure'
|
|
* enhancement: if make -k was used and a sub-Make fails, build the
|
|
rest before propagating
|
|
* enhancement: make uninstall
|
|
* experimental enhancements: --with-python=DIRECTORY, --with-gc=DIRECTORY
|
|
* experimental enhancement: Win32 port (build with MinGW MSYS)
|
|
|
|
Changes in the experimental ECMAScript support:
|
|
|
|
* disabled by default, as mentioned under ``Incompatibilities'' above
|
|

|
|
statements work as intended
|
|
* fix error ``forms.namedItem is not a function''
|
|
* enhancement: SEE ECMAScript backend, an alternative to SpiderMonkey
|
|
* enhancement: handling onsubmit
|
|
* workaround: window.open remembers the last few URLs and doesn't
|
|
reopen them when incremental rendering reruns the onload script
|
|
* enhancement: better handling of form.action assignments
|
|
* enhancement: form[x] looks up controls also by 'id', not only 'name'
|
|
* enhancement: added document.location.href, input.selectedIndex,

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
* enhancement: minimalistic RSS renderer
|
|
* enhancement: source highlighting also recognizes
|
|
application/xhtml+xml and application/docbook+xml. It doesn't yet
|
|
support arbitrary XML though.
|
|
* enhancement: make it possible to use more CSS properties with the
|
|
source highlighting
|
|
* enhancement: handle <base href=""> for HTML source rendering
|
|
* enhancement: add support for scanning comment endings such as
|
|
'--!>' correctly
