⚠️ Downgrading back to v1.10 causes all site-specific themes to be forgotten. Back up your sitespec.ini beforehand.
New features:
- Multiple windows. Windows can be opened via the menu, Ctrl/⌘+N, or link context menus.
- Restoring tabs at launch is now optional. Added a toggle in Preferences > General.
- Site-specific settings (Shift+Ctrl/⌘+Comma), with options for theme customization and showing ANSI escape warnings. The custom theme is based on a "seed string" chosen by the user.
- Fontpack search. Fonts in the skyjake.fi font library have been indexed based on all the glyphs they provide, so one can look up which fontpacks provide any missing glyphs.
- "Manage Fonts" button on the Preferences > Fonts tab. It opens "about:fonts".
- "Tab width" setting (default: 8). This controls how TAB characters are displayed on pages.
- Setting for maximum valid URI length on 'text/gemini' link lines.
- Option to show images decoded from data URLs immediately after loading a page. This is limited to JPEG, PNG, WebP, and GIF (no animations).
- "Paste and Go" in the input field context menu.
- TLS session caching: reduces the need for redundant handshaking by keeping old TLS sessions cached for 10 minutes.
- UI language for Italian.
Changes and enhancements:
- The input prompt dialog saves entered text persistently, just like the Upload dialog. This prevents losing text if the dialog is closed accidentally.
- Input field backup is done per window, e.g., "uploadbackup.2.txt".
- Sidebar context menus have more consistent "open" menu items, now including opening the item in a new window.
- The missing glyphs warning dialog now shows a list of the missing code points.
- Downloading the Classic Set fontpack is no longer suggested since fontpacks can be searched as needed.
- Abbreviate font pack descriptions on "about:fonts". The full description is shown when viewing a single fontpack.
- The active tab button uses the theme background color if the page color theme has a bright colorful background to avoid clashing with the UI accent color.
- Adjusted colors of the Gray and Black page themes.
- Added additional (small) variations to theme hues.
- Data URLs have their own link icon.
- Adjusted appearance of context menus.
- Updated UI translations.
Fixes:
- Incorrect behavior and UI glitches related to data URLs. The UI will now omit the encoded part of data URLs.
- Occasional mismatch between page and banner backgrounds. It was due to loss of precision when converting colors to 8-bit RGB.
- Issues with changing UI metrics when a window moves between displays. Not all UI elements were rescaled properly.
- Glitches with opening and closing context menus.
- TAB characters are no longer forcibly normalized to spaces.
- Pasting LF characters in the URL field should not be possible.
- Avoid reinitializing fonts more than once during startup.
