This should be a pretty solid Beta build.
An official release build is likely to arrive before Christmas this year.
All of the features planned for the first official release from this fork have been completed, and backward compatibility with v0.4.8 seems to be working well.
This is a Beta build, and seems to be working very well for me, even when copied into an existing Cmder\vendor\clink directory. Be sure to make a backup copy of your Cmder installation before copying v1.1.7 into an existing Cmder installation!
Highlights for v1.1.7:
- Performance improvement when displaying matches: When enumerating files and dirs, the
os.globfilesandos.globdirsfunctions have all the info about each file. Now they can return that info in a table. This frees the match display function from needing to do any further file system IO. The performance boost is noticeable. - Rewrote the color settings: the .fg and .bg sub-settings are gone, and the main setting now uses a more natural syntax (e.g.
clink set color.input bright yelloworclink set color.modmark bright cyan on blue). - Added "cmd" match type for shell (CMD.EXE) command completions.
- Added VT emulation for the reverse video SGR parameters.
- Fixed tab completion for
clink set <setting>, and also handle the new color setting syntax. - Fixed confusing behavior if multiple scripts try to add settings with the same name (now the first one succeeds and the rest report errors).
