v0.9.0 (unreleased)
-------------------

Added
~~~~~

- New `:rl-backward-kill-word` command which does what `:rl-unix-word-rubout`
  did before v0.8.0.
- New `:rl-unix-filename-rubout` command which is similar to readline's
  `unix-filename-rubout`.
- New `fonts -> completion.category` setting to customize the font used for
  completion category headers.

Changed
~~~~~~~

- `:bookmark-add` now has a `--toggle` flag which deletes the bookmark if it
  already exists.
- `:bookmark-load` now has a `--delete` flag which deletes the bookmark after
  loading it.
- `:open` now also accepts quickmark names instead of URLs
- `:tab-move` now optionally takes an index for absolute moving.
- Commands taking either an argument or a count (like `:zoom` or `:tab-focus`)
  now prefer the count instead of showing an error message.
- `:open` now has an `--implicit` argument to treat the opened tab as implicit
  (i.e. to open it at the position it would be opened if it was a clicked link)

v0.8.2
------

Fixed
~~~~~

- Fixed `general -> private-browsing` not being set correctly until a restart
  (which caused e.g. local storage to be enabled).
- Fixed crash when using hints with JS disabled in some rare circumstances.
- When hinting input fields (`:t`), also consider input elements without a type.
- Fixed crash when opening an invalid URL with a percent-encoded and a real @ in it
- Fixed default `;o` and `;O` bindings
- Fixed local storage not working (and possible other bugs) when using a
  relative path with `--basedir`.
- Fixed crash when deleting a quickmark with Ctrl-D
- Fixed HTML5 video playback on Windows
- Fixed crash when using `:prompt-open-download` with a file with chars not
  encodable with the OS' filesystem encoding (e.g. with `LC_ALL=C`)
- Fixed `:prompt-open-download` with a too long filename (> 255 bytes)
- Fixed crash when cancelling a download after doing `:prompt-open-download`
- Fixed crash when writing a download to disk fails with
  `:prompt-open-download`.

v0.8.1
------

Fixed
~~~~~

- Fix crash when pressing enter without a command
- Adjust error message to point out QtWebEngine is unsupported with the OS
  X .app currently.
- Hide Harfbuzz warning with the OS X .app

v0.8.0
------

Added
~~~~~

- New `:repeat-command` command (mapped to `.`) to repeat the last command.
  Note that two former default bundings conflict with that binding, unbinding
  them via `:unbind .i` and `:unbind .o` is recommended.
- New `qute:bookmarks` page which displays all bookmarks and quickmarks.
- New `:prompt-open-download` (bound to `Ctrl-X`) which can be used to open a
  download directly when getting the filename prompt.
- New `{host}` replacement for tab- and window titles which evaluates
  to the current host.
- New default binding `;t` for `:hint input`.
- New variables `$QUTE_CONFIG_DIR`, `$QUTE_DATA_DIR` and
  `$QUTE_DOWNLOAD_DIR` available for userscripts.
- New option `ui` -> `status-position` to configure the position of the
  status bar (top/bottom).
- New `--pdf <filename>` argument for `:print` WHICH can be used to generate a
  PDF without a dialog.

Changed
~~~~~~~

- `:scroll-perc` now prefers a count over the argument given to it, which means
  `gg` can be used with a count.
- Aliases can now use `;;` to have an alias which executed multiple commands.
- `:edit-url` now does nothing if the URL isn't changed in the spawned editor.
- `:bookmark-add` can now be passed a URL and title to add that as a bookmark
  rather than the current page.
- New `taskadd` userscript to add a taskwarrior task annotated with the
  current URL.
- `:bookmark-del` and `:quickmark-del` now delete the current page's URL if none
  is given.

Fixed
-----

- Compatibility with PyQt 5.7
- Fixed some configuration values being lost when a config option gets removed
  from qutebrowser's code.
- Fix crash when downloading with a full disk
- Using `:jump-mark` (e.g. `''`) when the current URL is invalid doesn't crash
  anymore.

Removed
-------

- The ability to display status messages from webpages, as well as the related
  `ui ->  display-statusbar-messages` setting.
- The `general -> wrap-search` setting as searches now always wrap.
  According to a quick straw poll and prior crash logs, almost nobody is using
  `wrap-search = false`, and turning off wrapping is not possible with
  QtWebEngine.
- `:edit-url` now doesn't accept a count anymore as its behavior was confusing
  and it doesn't make much sense to add a count.

v0.7.0
------

Added
~~~~~

- New `:edit-url` command to edit the URL in an external editor.
- New `network -> custom-headers` setting to send custom headers with every request.
- New `{url:pretty}` commandline replacement which gets replaced by the decoded URL.
- New marks to remember a scroll position:
    - New `:jump-mark` command to jump to a mark, bound to `'`
    - New `:set-mark` command to set a mark, bound to ```(backtick)
    - The `'` mark gets set when moving away (hinting link with anchor, searching, etc.) so you can move back with `''`
- New `--force-color` argument to force colored logging even if stdout is not a
  terminal
- New `:messages` command to show error messages
- New pop-up showing possible keybinding when the first key of a keychain is
  pressed. This can be turned off using `:set ui keyhint-blacklist *`.
- New `hints -> auto-follow-timeout` setting to ignore keypresses after
  following a hint when filtering in number mode.
- New `:history-clear` command to clear the entire history
- New `hints -> find-implementation` to select which implementation (JS/Python)
  should be used to find hints on a page. The `javascript` implementation is
  better, but slower.
- New `inputs` group for `:hint` to hint text input fields.

Changed
~~~~~~~

- qutebrowser got a new (slightly updated) logo
- `:tab-focus` can now take a negative index to focus the nth tab counted from
  the right.
- `:yank` can now yank the pretty/decoded URL by adding `--pretty`
- `:navigate` now clears the URL fragment
- `:completion-item-del` (`Ctrl-D`) can now be used in `:buffer` completion to
  close a tab
- Counts can now be used with special keybindings (e.g. with modifiers)
- Various SSL ciphers are now disabled by default. With recent Qt/OpenSSL
  versions those already all are disabled, but with older versions they might
  not be.
- Show favicons as window icon with `tabs-are-windows` set.
- `:bind <key>` without a command now shows the existing binding
- The optional `colorlog` dependency got removed, as qutebrowser now displays
  colored logs without it.
- URLs are now shown decoded when hovering.
- Keybindings are now shown in the command completion
- Improved behavior when pasting multiple lines
- Rapid hints can now also be used for the `normal` hint target, which can be
  useful with javascript click handlers or checkboxes which don't actually open
  a new page.
- `:zoom-in` or `:zoom-out` (`+`/`-`) with a too large count now zooms to the
  smallest/largest zoom instead of doing nothing.
- The commandline now accepts partially typed commands if they're unique.
- Number hints are now kept filtered after following a hint in rapid mode.
- Number hints are now renumbered after filtering
- Number hints can now be filtered with multiple space-separated search terms
- `hints -> scatter` is now ignored for number hints
- Better history implementation which also stores titles.
  As a consequence, URLs which redirect to another URL are now added to the
  history too, marked with a `-r` suffix to the timestamp field.

Fixed
-----

- Fixed using `:hint links spawn` with flags - you can now use things like the
  `-v` argument for `:spawn` or pass flags to the spawned commands.
- Various fixes for hinting corner-cases where following a link didn't work or
  the hint was drawn at the wrong position.

- Added workaround for a Qt/PyQt bug which is too weird to describe here

v0.6.0
------

Added
~~~~~

- New `:buffer` command to easily switch tabs by name. This is not bound to a
  key by default for existing users due to a conflict with the `gt`/`gT`
  bindings (which are now removed from the default bindings).
  You can bind it by hand by running `:bind -f gt set-cmd-text -s :buffer`.
- New `--quiet` argument for the `:debug-pyeval` command to not open a tab with
  the results. Note `:debug-pyeval` is still only intended for debugging.
- The completion now matches each entered word separately.
- A new command `:paste-primary` got added to paste the primary selection, and
  `<Shift-Insert>` got added as a binding so it pastes primary rather than
  clipboard.
- New mode `word` for `hints -> mode` which uses a dictionary and link-texts
  for hints instead of single characters.
- New `--all` argument for `:download-cancel` to cancel all running downloads.
- New `password_fill` userscript to fill passwords using the `pass` executable.
- New `current` hinting mode which forces opening hints in the current tab
  (even with `target="_blank"`)

Changed
~~~~~~~

- Pasting multiple lines via `:paste` now opens each line in a new tab.
- `:navigate increment/decrement` now preserves leading zeroes in URLs.
- `general -> editor` can now also handle `{}` inside another argument (e.g. to open `vim` via `termite`)
- Improved performance when scrolling with many tabs open.
- Shift-Insert now also pastes primary selection for prompts.
- `:download-remove --all` got un-deprecated to provide symmetry with
  `:download-cancel --all`. It does the same as `:download-clear`.
- Improved detection of URLs/search terms when pasting multiple lines.
- Don't remove `qutebrowser-editor-*` temporary file if editor subprocess crashed
- Userscripts are also searched in `/usr/share/qutebrowser/userscripts`.
- Blocked hosts are now also read from a `blocked-hosts` file in the config dir
  (e.g. `~/.config/qutebrowser/blocked-hosts`).

Fixed
~~~~~

- Fixed crash when a tab is closed twice via javascript (e.g. Dropbox
  authentication dialogs)
- Fixed crash when a notification/geolocation prompt is answered after closing
  the tab it belongs to.

  focus.
- Fixed "Frame load interrupted by policy change" error showing up when
  downloading files with Qt 5.6.

Removed
~~~~~~~

- The `gt`/`gT` bindings (luakit-like alternatives to `J`/`K`) were removed
  (except for existing configs) to make room for the `gt` binding to show
  buffers.

v0.5.1
------

Fixed
~~~~~

- Fixed completion for various config values when using `:set`.
- Fixed config validation for various config values.
- Prevented an error being logged when a website with HTTP authentication was
  opened on Windows.

  `$XDG_DATA_DIR`. Using a binary in `$PATH` won't work anymore with
  `--userscript`.
- New design for error pages
- Link filtering for hints now checks if the text is contained anywhere in
  the link, and matches case-insensitively.
- The `ui -> remove-finished-downloads` option got changed to an integer and
  now takes a time (in milliseconds) to keep the download around after it's
  finished. When set to `-1`, downloads are never removed.
- The `:follow-hint` command now optionally takes the keystring of a hint to
  follow.
- `:scroll-px` now doesn't take floats anymore, which made little sense.

~~~~~~~

- *Breaking change for userscripts:* `QUTE_HTML` and `QUTE_TEXT` for userscripts now don't store the contents directly, and instead contain a filename.
- The `content -> geolocation` and `notifications` settings now support a `true` value to always allow those. However, this is *not recommended*.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Added
~~~~~

- Session support
    * new command `:session-load` to load a session.
    * new command `:session-save` to save a session.
    * new command `:session-delete` to delete a session.
    * new setting `general -> save-session` to always save the session on quit.
    * new setting `general -> session-default-name` to configure the session name to use if none is given.
    * new argument `-r`/`--restore` to specify a session to load.
    * new argument `-R`/`--override-restore` to not load a session even if one was saved.
- New commands to manage downloads:
    * `:download` to download a URL or the current page.

    * `:download-delete` to delete a download from disk.
    * `:download-open` to open a finished download.

- History completion
    * New option `completion -> timestamp-format` to set the format used to display the history timestamps.
    * New option `completion -> web-history-max-items` to configure how many history items to show in the completion.
    * The option `completion -> history-length` for the command history got renamed to `cmd-history-max-items`.
- Better save logic for the config/state:
    * Only save files if modified (e.g. don't overwrite the config if it was edited outside of qutebrowser and nothing was changed in qutebrowser).
    * Save things (cookies, config, quickmarks, ...) periodically all 15 seconds (time can be changed with the `general -> auto-save-interval` option).
- Opera-like mouse rocker gestures
    * New option `input -> rocker-gestures`. When turned on, the history can be navigated back/forward by holding a mouse button and pressing the other one.
- New `-f` option for `:reload` to reload and bypass the cache.
- Pass more information (`QUTE_MODE`, `QUTE_SELECTED_TEXT`, `QUTE_SELECTED_HTML`, `QUTE_USER_AGENT`, `QUTE_HTML`, `QUTE_TEXT`) to userscripts.
- New `--userscript` option to `:spawn` (which deprecates `:run-userscript`).
- Ability to toggle a value to `:set` by appending a `!` to the value.
- New options to hide the tab-/statusbar:
    * `tabs -> hide-always` for the tabbar
    * `ui -> hide-statusbar` for the statusbar

- HTML5 Geolocation/Notification support:
    * New option `content -> geolocation` to permanently turn the geolocation off.
    * New option `content -> notifications` to permanently turn notifications off.
- New options to disable javascript prompts/alerts:
    * `content -> ignore-javascript-prompt` to turn off prompts.
    * `content -> ignore-javascript-alerts` to turn off alerts.
- Two new options to customize the behavior of hints:
    * `hints -> min-chars` to set minimum number of chars in hints.
    * `hints -> scatter` which when turned off distributes the hints sequentially (like dwb) instead of scattering their positions (like Vimium).
- Make it possible to use `:open -[twb]` without url.
    * New option `general -> default-page` to set the page to be opened when doing that.
- New `input -> partial-timeout` option to clear partial keystrings.
- New option `completion -> download-path-suggestion` to configure what to show in the completion for downloads.
- Queue messages shown in unfocused windows and show them when the window is focused.

- New `--rapid` option to `:hint`. The `rapid`/`rapid-win` targets are now deprecated, and `--rapid` can be used as well with the targets run/hover/userscript/spawn as well.
- New `-f` argument to `:bind` to overwrite the old binding.
- New `--qt-name` argument to qutebrowser which is passed to Qt to set `WM_CLASS`.
- Alternating row colors in completion. This adds a new `colors -> completion.alternate-bg` option.

Changed
~~~~~~~

- Ignore quotes with maxsplit-commands (`:open`, `:quickmark-load`, etc.) and don't quote arguments for those commands in the completions. This also means some commands needed adjustments:
    * Clear search when `:search` without arguments is given.  (`:search ""` will now search for the literal text `""`)
    * Add `-s`/`--space` argument to `:set-cmd-text` (as `:set-cmd-text "foo "` will now set the literal text `"foo "`)
- Ignore `;;` for splitting with some commands like `:bind`.
- Add unbound (new) default keybindings to config. This also adds a new `<unbound>` special command.
    * To unbind a command keybinding without binding it to a new key, you now have to bind it to `<unbound>` or it'll be readded automatically.
- If an SSL error is raised multiple times with the same error/certificate/host/scheme/port, the user is only asked once.
- Jump to last instead of first item when pressing Shift-Tab the first time in the completion.
- Add a fullscreen keybinding.
- Add a `:search` command in addition to `/foo` so it's more visible and can be used from scripts.
- Various improvements to documentation, logging, and the crash reporter.
- Expand `~` to the users home directory with `:run-userscript`.
- Improve the userscript runner on Linux/OS X by using `QSocketNotifier`.
- Add luakit-like `gt`/`gT` keybindings to cycle through tabs.
- Show default value for config values in the completion.
- Clone tab icon, tab text and zoom level when cloning tabs.
- Don't open relative file paths with `:open`, only with commandline arguments.
- Expand environment variables in config settings which take a file path.
- Add a list of common user agents to the user agent setting completion.
- Move cursor to end of textboxes when hinting.
- Don't start searches on invalid URLs for quickmarks/startpage.
- Various performance improvements for the completion.
- Always open URLs given as argument in the foreground.
- Improve various error messages.
- Add `startpage`/`default-page` values to `tabs -> last-close`.
- Various improvements to `:restart` - it should be more robust now and uses sessions so all state (focused tab, scroll position, etc.) gets remembered.
- Add tab index display to the statusbar.
- Keep progress bar height fixed when the statusbar is multiline.
- Many improvements to tests and related infrastructure:
    * `init_venv.py` and `run_checks.py` have been replaced by http://tox.readthedocs.org/[tox]. Install tox and run `tox -e mkvenv` instead.
    * The tests now use http://pytest.org/[pytest]
    * Many new tests added
    * Mac Mini buildbot to run the tests on OS X.
    * Coverage recording via http://nedbatchelder.com/code/coverage/[coverage.py].
    * New `--pdb-postmortem argument` to drop into the pdb debugger on exceptions.
    * Use https://github.com/ionelmc/python-hunter[hunter] for line tracing instead of a selfmade solution.
