This release has several major new features.
First of all highlighters have been reworked. Now it is possible to create several
sets of highlighting rules and choose active set to apply at the moment. Highlight rules
has become more flexible. It is possible to colorize only matching part of line (with
support for regex capture groups if present). And finally, highlighters configuration can be
exported to a file and shared with collaborators.
Another big feature is support for different window styles. Klogg can be configured to use
one of the default styles provided by Qt or use a separate dark theme base on QDarkStyleSheet. If default styles are used then Klogg will adjust its palette
to current OS theme.
This release also introduces new error reporting features to help with bugfix. Using service
and SDK provided by Sentry Klogg will now collect minidumps when
something crashes and send them to developers after asking user to review crash report. More
about this is covert in crash reporting.
DMG packages for Mac are now properly signed to make Gatekeeper happy.
Bugixes and minor improvements:
- Fixed RPM and DEB packaging
- Fixed bug with case-insensitive search autocomplete
- Fixed excessive reloading when follow mode is enabled
- Fixed crash due to race condition when saving selection to file
- Made some shortcut behavior more user-friendly
- Use DejaVu fonts by default
- Updated 3rdparty libraries
Precompiled binaries are provided for Windows (x86 and x64, based on Qt 5.15.2), Linux (x64 only, based on Qt 5.9.5) and Mac OS X (x64 only, based on Qt 5.15.2)
Big thanks for everyone who provided feedback and feature requests!
Known issues
- Using gtk2 style from qt5-style-plugins causes crashes on Ubuntu, so qtk2 style has been removed from klogg. As a workaround adwaita-qt package and Adwaita style can be used to make klogg look more native in gtk3 environment (see #233)
- In some Ubuntu installations Dark style might crash if qt5-style-plugins package is not installed (see #233)
Release binaries have been updated 20.12.0.813 to reduce impact from mentioned issues.
