This was a note for developers, so it makes more sense to have in
CONTRIBUTING.
This also adds a section on using tox, which was mentioned only in
INSTALL and not CONTRIBUTING.
New contributors might like to be reminded to redirect the config
access of their locally-built qutebrowser to avoid overwriting their
global settings.
Otherwise we get:
import file mismatch:
imported module 'test_sessions' has this __file__ attribute:
/home/florian/proj/qutebrowser/git/tests/integration/features/test_sessions.py
which is not the same as the test file we want to collect:
/home/florian/proj/qutebrowser/git/tests/unit/misc/test_sessions.py
HINT: remove __pycache__ / .pyc files and/or use a unique basename for your test file modules
Searching for that error doesn't turn up many helpful results, but it
seems to be harmless and shown when downloading a file - it's also new
in Qt 5.6 it seems, so let's just ignore it.
The previous fix didn't work in situations where the web view was
actually focused, but had no focused element (like about:blank).
The new fix always works, and even is a lot simpler!
Fixes#504.
When a download is finished with `removed-finished-download` set to a
delay, it's removed via a singleshot QTimer.
However, when the window was closed in the meantime, the slot still was
executed by Qt, even though the DownloadManager was already deleted.
Fixes#1242
Those were added in #443, inspired by luakit.
However, all other bindings follow dwb's defaults, and dwb uses `gt` for
showing buffers. To be consistent, let's rebind gt to show :buffer.
The buffer_troubling_args tests may look a little un-intuitive but that is
because they are testing the edge cases for the current behaviour. If these
edge cases are encountered during normal usage you are doing something wrong.
`buffer` takes either a tab index or a string and focuses the specified
tab. The index can be of the form [0-9]+ which will switch to the
relevant tab in the current window or [0-9]+/[0-9]+ (that is
win_id/index) which will focus the specified window before switching
tabs. If a string is passed the list of open tabs across all windows is
sorted based on title and url (just like in the completion widget) and
the top result is selected.
