Hey everyone! Today new release with a bunch of cool stuff. Here are the
highlights:
Numen calculator backend
I spent a lot of time developping the numen library which is essentially a
calculator library with builtin support for unit, timezone conversion, and
more.
It's now the default calculator backend on all platforms. You don't need to do
anything to get it unless you already changed your backend manually, in which
case you need to manually select it in the settings.
Note that the numen library is licensed separately under the BSD-3 license so
it's much more permissive and can therefore be used by other non GPL projects.
KDE settings integration
For KDE users, you can now search for KDE settings directly from the root
search!
Draggable window on macOS
For macOS users, you can now drag the window around by holding the cmd key,
and it will automatically remember the position.
Maybe I will try to bing this to Linux as well...
