VimFx v0.20.2
[VimFx.git] / CHANGELOG.md
1 ### 0.20.2 (2016-10-16)
2
3 - Fixed: Text inputs and links inside frames can now be focused using hint
4 commands again. (Regression since 0.19.0.)
5 - Improved: Previously focused text inputs inside frames no longer steal the
6 focus when entering Caret mode in that frame.
7 - Improved: When several hint markers have the same hint (because their links
8 go to the same place), the _largest_ of those links is now chosen when
9 activating that hint. This might be noticeable via focus styling.
10 - Updated locale: zh-CN. Thanks to @av2000ii!
11
12 ### 0.20.1 (2016-10-09)
13
14 - Improved: Caret mode is now a bit more robust. It can no longer make you end
15 up with [Firefox’s own Caret mode] accidentally enabled.
16 - Improved: If you try use for example `<ctrl>-j` as a keyboard shortcut, VimFx
17 will now tell you that you probably want `<c-j>` instead.
18 - Fixed: Using a keyboard shortcut to switch keyboard layout in GNOME while
19 inside a text input no longer causes the focus of that text input to be lost
20 when the Prevent autofocus option is enabled.
21 - Updated locale: zh-CN. Thanks to @av2000ii!
22
23 [Firefox’s own Caret mode]: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Accessibility_features_of_Firefox#Allow_text_to_be_selected_with_the_keyboard
24
25 ### 0.20.0 (2016-10-02)
26
27 - Added: The `g[` and `g]` commands, which let you scroll to previous and next
28 scroll positions of the current page. This is similar to Vim’s jump list.
29 - Added: The `/` mark. Pressing `'/` takes you to the scroll position before the
30 last `/`, `a/` or `g/`.
31 - Fixed: Pressing `''` multiple times in a row now flips back and forth
32 between two scroll positions as expected.
33 - Fixed: Version 0.19.0 claimed to include the following improvement: “The hint
34 marker for a smaller element can no longer cover the hint marker for a larger
35 element (unless you press `<c-space>` to rotate them).” However, a silly
36 mistake caused that improvement not to work. Now it does. For real.
37 - Fixed: All VimFx commands that copy text to the clipboard are now made sure to
38 also copy to the “selection clipboard” (if your system has such a thing). For
39 example, if you copy text using the `yv` command, the `p` command now uses
40 that copied text as expected.
41
42 ### 0.19.1 (2016-09-26)
43
44 - Fixed: The `'` command no longer crashes. (Regression since 0.19.0.)
45
46 ### 0.19.0 (2016-09-25)
47
48 #### Changes and improvements to Hints mode
49
50 **New feature:** Hint markers can now be filtered by element text, similar to
51 Vimium, Vimperator and Pentadactyl. This is useful for people who simply prefer
52 that workflow, and for clicking tiny pagination links (simply type its number!).
53
54 By default, filtering by element text is done by typing _uppercase_ characters
55 (hold down shift!). All characters other than the hint characters are now used
56 to filter hint markers by element text (rather than just being ignored). Do you
57 prefer filtering by element text, but dislike typing uppercase letters? Have a
58 look at how [hint characters] work to make things the other way around!
59
60 The markers with the best hint are now highlighted with a different color. You
61 may at any time press `<enter>` to activate those markers (or `<c-enter>` or
62 `<a-enter>` to change where and how to open links, just like you can hold ctrl
63 or alt for the last hint character).
64
65 Because of the above new features, the following default **Hints mode shortcuts
66 had to be changed:**
67
68 - `<space>` → `<c-space>` (`<s-space>` is left untouched)
69 - `<s->` → `<c-s->` (hold ctrl _and_ shift to peek through hint markers)
70 - `<enter>` → `<up>`
71 - `<c-enter>` → `<c-backspace>`
72
73 To make it easier to see the element text, hint markers are now nudged to the
74 left if they cover the text.
75
76 Other hint marker improvements:
77
78 - Hint markers are now 20% smaller by default. While trying to match text sizes
79 set by your operating system, they ended up a bit too large on most systems.
80 Check out the [Styling] documentation if you’d like to change the font size.
81 - Hint markers now have stronger contrast between the background color and the
82 text color, which should make them easier to read.
83 - The CSS for hint markers have been improved, making it easier to use custom
84 [Styling].
85 - When several elements have the same area, the best hint is now correctly given
86 to the _first_ of those elements. Previously, it happened to be the other way
87 around.
88 - The hint marker for a smaller element can no longer cover the hint marker for
89 a larger element (unless you press `<c-space>` to rotate them).
90 - Hint markers are now better positioned when having zoomed the page in or out.
91 - Hints mode is now more robust in general. Several race conditions have been
92 fixed.

94 [hint characters]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/8bafdf0454043c1630bac8b13d13f1fb4e5ee9e7/documentation/options.md#hint-characters

96
97 #### Other updates
98
99 - Added: The ability to **export, import and reset all** VimFx options. There
100 are three shiny new buttons for this in VimFx’s options page in the Add-ons
101 Manager!
102 - Added: The `gB` command, which lets you **quickly blacklist** (and
103 un-blacklist) sites.
104 - Added: The `ec` command, for opening the context menu of elements.
105 - Added: The `ep` command, for opening links in new private windows.
106 - Improved: `h`, `l`, `j` and `k` now feel more like scrolling with the arrow
107 keys when held down, by boosting the scrolling speed. See the
108 [`scroll.horizontal_boost` and `scroll.vertical_boost`][scroll-boost] options
109 for more information.
110 - Fixed: VimFx’s find bar integration is now much more robust. Most notably, if
111 you start typing directly after pressing `/` and Firefox is slow at opening
112 the find bar, your keypresses can no longer trigger VimFx commands or Firefox
113 built-in commands.
114 - Improved: VimFx no longer leaks keypresses to the web page in some modes. (For
115 example, counts in Caret mode).
116 - Improved: The `eb` command now finds more clickable elements in the devtools.
117 - Changed: `vimfx.addKeyOverrides` no longer lets you easily break for example
118 Hints mode, by now only being applied to Normal mode. You might need to change
119 your matchers from `(location, mode) => ...` to simply `location => ...`.
120 (Breaking API change.)
121 - Changed: The object passed to custom commands (and custom modes) no longer
122 contains a `uiEvent` property. Instead, there’s an `event` property. This
123 property can be used the same way if you check `vim.isUIEvent(event)` first.
124 (Breaking API change.)
125
126 [scroll-boost]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/8bafdf0454043c1630bac8b13d13f1fb4e5ee9e7/documentation/options.md#scrollhorizontal_boost-and-scrollvertical_boost
127
128 ### 0.18.1 (2016-08-27)
129
130 - Fixed: `vimfx.addOptionOverrides` no longer crashes on startup.
131 - Fixed: `vimfx.addOptionOverrides` can now override the `prevent_autofocus`
132 pref again.
133
134 ### 0.18.0 (2016-08-20)
135
136 #### Changed default shortcuts
137
138 Some default keyboard shortcuts have been changed.
139
140 - Hint commands. Many of the old ones were difficult to remember, and there was
141 no space for adding new ones.
142
143 - `gf` → `et` (t as in tab)
144 - `gF` → `ew` (w as in window)
145 - `zf` → `ef` (f as in focus)
146 - `zF` → `eb` (b as in browser)
147 - `zv` → `av` (you actually select _all_ of the element’s text)
148
149 (`f`, `yf`, `af`, `v` and `yv` stay unchanged.)
150
151 There is a longer [explanation of these new defaults][hint-shortcuts] in the
152 documentation.
153
154 - `zr` → `gC`. `zr` was the only shortcut starting with `z`. This frees that key
155 up for other uses.
156
157 - `` ` `` → `'`. The `` ` `` shortcut (“scroll to mark”) as well as the `` ` ``
158 mark (“last position mark”) have both been changed to `'`. Both `` ` `` and
159 `'` are used in Vim. `'` is a better default, because it is easier to
160 type–both on an en-US QWERTY keyboard and, more importantly, on some
161 international layouts, such as the sv-SE QWERTY layout.
162
163 Note: If you miss Firefox’s default `'` shortcut to open the Quick Find bar
164 (which is now overridden), remember that VimFx provides `g/` which does the
165 same thing. (You can of course also change VimFx’s shortcuts.)
166
167 See also issue [#788].
168
169 [hint-shortcuts]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/e8d9df31dd5c8df999ac22e3b3b8d548a68c6fa7/documentation/commands.md#mnemonics-and-choice-of-default-hint-command-shortcuts
170 [#788]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/issues/788
171
172 #### Other updates
173
174 - Added: It is now possible to create [custom hint commands].
175 - Fixed: The bottom-right corner of the page scrollbars can now be used with the
176 mouse again.
177 - Fixed: The toolbar button now correctly toggles VimFx’s Keyboard Shortcuts
178 dialog again.
179 - Updated locales: fr, ru. Thanks to Mickaël RAYBAUD-ROIG (@m-r-r) and Nicholas
180 Guriev (@mymedia2)!
181
182 [custom hint commands]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/e8d9df31dd5c8df999ac22e3b3b8d548a68c6fa7/documentation/api.md#custom-hint-commands
183
184 ### 0.17.4 (2016-07-11)
185
186 - Improved: The usage of modifier keys in Hints mode is now shown in VimFx’s
187 Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog. The functionality has been there for a long
188 time, but should now be easier to find. Thanks to our awesome translators,
189 the new help text is already available in most supported locales!
190 - Improved: If you submit a form while still being inside one of its text
191 inputs, that text input is now automatically blurred. This lets you use VimFx
192 commands while waiting for the form to submit without having to press
193 `<escape>` first.
194 - Improved: The `gu` command now works better on some pages, by preserving a
195 trailing slash. Thanks to @sinkuu!
196 - Improved: VimFx now recognizes text areas in the TYPO3 CMS.
197 - Improved: The `<escape>` command and the toolbar button now let you escape
198 back to Normal mode if VimFx ever gets stuck thinking that you are typing in a
199 text input.
200
201 ### 0.17.3 (2016-06-27)
202
203 - Improved: The `zF` command can now open even more dropdown menus of buttons.
204
205 ### 0.17.2 (2016-06-19)
206
207 - Improved: The `zF` command now works with more buttons and is able to open
208 dropdown menus of buttons.
209 - Fixed: The `f` commands now recognize more file upload buttons.
210 - Fixed: Rotating hint markers now works more as expected after having entered a
211 few hint chars.
212 - Fixed: Scrolling now works in SVG documents.
213 - Fixed: Opening links in new tabs in Firefox 50.
214 - Updated locales: pt-BR and ru. Thanks to Átila Camurça Alves (@atilacamurca)
215 and Nicholas Guriev (@mymedia2)!
216
217 ### 0.17.1 (2016-06-12)
218
219 - Fixed: The `zF` command no longer accidentally double-clicks instead of
220 single-clicking. Thanks to Alan Wu (@XrXr)!
221 - Fixed: The `zF` command no longer crashes in Firefox 49+.
222 - Fixed: The “URL popup,” shown when hovering or focusing links, now appears
223 again when focusing links using `zf` (regression since 0.17.0).
224 - Updated locale: it. Thanks to Carlo Bertoldi (@cbertoldi)!
225
226 ### 0.17.0 (2016-06-08)
227
228 - Fixed: VimFx no longer scrolls smaller elements on a page instead of the
229 entire page on some sites.
230 - Improved: The `/`, `n` and `N` have been drastically sped up (when
231 [`find_from_top_of_viewport`][find_from_top_of_viewport-1] is on). Previously,
232 they appeared to freeze on some sites, but not anymore.
233 - Improved: You can no longer accidentally trigger VimFx between pressing `/`
234 and the find bar input being is focused.
235 - Improved: The `n` and `N` commands are now more robust.
236 - Improved: “Fullscreen” buttons and “Copy to clipboard” buttons can now be
237 activated the `f` command. Thanks to Alan Wu (@XrXr)!
238 - Changed: After having pressed `m` or `` ` `` VimFx no longer waits
239 indefinitely for you to press a mark key. Instead, the [timeout] option is
240 honored.
241 - Changed: After having pressed `m` or `` ` `` you can now press `<escape>` to
242 abort those commands.
243 - Changed: Find mode is no longer shown in VimFx’s Keyboard Shortcuts help
244 dialog, to reduce clutter. (This can be changed through custom
245 [styling][styling-1].)
246 - Changed: The `?` command as well as the toolbar button now _toggle_ VimFx’s
247 Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog (instead of always showing it, even if it was
248 already shown.)
249 - Changed: Counts are now ignored in Ignore mode. Previously, pressing number
250 keys would both send those key presses to the page _and_ contribute to the
251 count for commands (showing up in the bottom-right corner). This is no longer
252 the case.
253 - Updated locales: fr, zh-CN and zh-TW. Thanks to Mickaël RAYBAUD-ROIG (@m-r-r),
254 @av2000ii and Robert Wang (@cyberrob)!

257 [timeout]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/288bd3317cbed3a57e42a754099b96efe6c1e38d/documentation/options.md#timeout

259
260 ### 0.16.1 (2016-05-29)
261
262 - Fixed: The `zF` command no longer crashes (regression since 0.16.0).
263
264 ### 0.16.0 (2016-05-29)
265
266 - Fixed: The text input focus detection problems introduced in 0.15.1, which
267 sometimes caused VimFx commands to be triggered while typing in text inputs,
268 have been fixed.
269 - Improved: If you press `n` or `N` when there are are no matches for your
270 search, the find bar is no longer opened. Only a notification is shown. The
271 reliability of those notifications has also been improved.
272 - Improved: Hints mode now finds more links.
273 - Improved: Pressing `<c-enter>` in Hints mode now includes more elements.
274 - Updated locales: es, zh-CN. Thanks to @strel and @av2000ii!
275
276 ### 0.15.1 (2016-05-22)
277
278 - Improved: Better hints on Twitter.
279 - Improved: Compatibility with the [Evernote Web Clipper] add-on (and
280 potentially other add-ons with similar UI).
281 - Updated locale: ja. Thanks to Kaoru Esashika (@pluser)!
282
283 [Evernote Web Clipper]: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/evernote-web-clipper/
284
285 ### 0.15.0 (2016-05-18)
286
287 - Improved: Hint markers now appear up to twice as fast on many pages. This is
288 done by creating the hint markers in two phases. Most are created in the
289 first, fast, phase. The rest take the same time as older VimFx versions to
290 show up.
291 - Fixed: VimFx no longer triggers commands while typing in fancy text inputs on
292 some sites, such as when composing a new tweet on Twitter. (See also the
293 [`blur_timeout`] pref.)
294 - Changed: The `<c-enter>` Hints mode command no longer _replaces_ all hint
295 markers on screen (with new ones for all elements on screen). Instead, it
296 _toggles_ your current hint markers with ones for all _other_ elements on
297 screen.
298 - Changed: There was a breaking change to the [`vimfx.setHintMatcher`] function
299 of the `frame.js` config file API. It no longer receives and returns an object
300 (of the shape `{type, semantic}`), but instead simply receives and returns the
301 `type` of the element.
302 - Improved: Some internal robustness refactoring.
303 - Updated locales: de, id, nl and zh-CN. Thanks to @just-barcodes, Yoppy
304 Halilintar (@comepradz), @HJTP, @av2000ii and @mozillazg.

308
309 ### 0.14.3 (2016-05-08)
310
311 - Fixed: Version 0.14.2 attempted to fix smooth scrolling speed in newer Firefox
312 versions. However, there was a tiny typo that caused the fix not to work. That
313 typo has been corrected.
314
315 ### 0.14.2 (2016-05-08)
316
317 - Fixed: Smooth scrolling speed is now correct again in newer Firefox versions.
318 - Fixed: The `yv` Caret mode command now only copies text that you can see on
319 screen (not any hidden text that might be on the page), making it truly work
320 like `zv` followed by `y`, as intended. This problem was very noticeable on
321 Slack. This also improves copying of 'contenteditable' elements using `yf`.
322 - Fixed: `<escape>` and arrow key handling as well as hint markers in the
323 devtools now work correctly again in newer Firefox versions.
324 - Fixed: VimFx no longer makes it impossible to open the Developer Toolbar.
325 - Improved: VimFx now ignores `<numlock>` and `<capslock>`. If your keyboard
326 sends `<numlock>` before some symbols, such as `<numlock>$` instead of just
327 `$`, shortcuts like `gx$` now work out of the box. This also means that you
328 can use `<capslock>` instead of `<shift>` when typing the `J` in `gJ`, for
329 example.
330 - Improved: Some minor cosmetic tweaks in VimFx’s Keyboard Shortcuts help
331 dialog.
332
333 ### 0.14.1 (2016-04-30)
334
335 - Fixed: The Find commands (such as `/`, `n` and `N`) no longer crash on some
336 sites (regression since 0.14.0).
337
338 ### 0.14.0 (2016-04-29)
339
340 - Added: [Caret mode], which lets you copy text from web pages using the
341 keyboard.
342 - Improved: The Find commands (such as `/`, `n` and `N`) now search from the top
343 of the viewport, instead of from the top of the document, which is more
344 Vim-like and less disorienting. To read more about it (or to return to the
345 Firefox default behavior) please see the [`find_from_top_of_viewport`] pref.
346 - Improved: Compatibility with the [BackTrack Tab History] add-on.
347 - Added: The `<c-enter>` Hints mode command, which creates hint markers for
348 _all_ elements.
349 - Fixed: `__dirname` inside config files now works on Windows. Thanks to
350 Zhong Jianxin (@azuwis)!
351 - Fixed: Unnecessary full-page hint markers on some sites, such as Hackernews,
352 no longer appear.
353
354 [Caret mode]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/4ffda62560096f91244f3f7731171002ed174f05/documentation/commands.md#the-v-commands--caret-mode

356 [BackTrack Tab History]: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backtrack-tab-history/
357
358 ### 0.13.2 (2016-04-08)
359
360 - Improved: The “last position mark” `` ` `` now works more reliably.
361 - Improved: More video players are now recognized. Many video players lets you
362 press `<space>` while focused to toggle play/pause. VimFx tries to detect if
363 the currently focused element is a video player. If so, `<space>` is passed to
364 the video player instead of scrolling the page. (For those interested, see
365 also the [`adjustable_element_keys`] pref.)
366
367 [`adjustable_element_keys`]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/645e35d7d82019b0551534c43926bc126e7105bd/documentation/options.md#adjustable_element_keys
368
369 ### 0.13.1 (2016-04-01)
370
371 - Fixed: Blacklisting of some XUL pages.
372 - Fixed: The current mode is no longer lost when a page loads. For example, if
373 you press `zF` while a page is loading, the markers no longer disappear.
374 - Fixed: Elements that you have focused using an `f` command no longer get stuck
375 appearing as if you’d put the mouse pointer.
376 - Updated locale: zh-CN. Thanks to @mozillazg!
377
378 ### 0.13.0 (2016-03-19)
379
380 - Added: The `T` command, which opens a new tab after the current.
381 - Changed: The `gl` command now deals with _visited_ tabs only.
382 - Added: The [`gL`] command, which deals with <em>un</em>visited tabs only, in
383 oldest-first order. Use this to step through your unvisited background tabs in
384 the order you opened them (for example using the `F` command).
385 - Improved: The `gi` command no longer tries to focus the last focused text
386 input if it has been removed from the page. If so, it finds a new one instead.
387 - Fixed: You can now type in sidebar text inputs (such as in the history
388 sidebar) without having to switch to Ignore mode.
389 - Changed: If you enter Ignore mode you will now stay in Ignore mode in that tab
390 until you explicitly exit it (by pressing `<s-escape>`), even if you reload
391 the page or follow a link. If Ignore mode was entered automatically because of
392 the [blacklist][blacklist-2], though, you will be automatically returned to
393 Normal mode if
394 the URL changes to a non-blacklisted page.
395 - Added: VimFx can now automatically enter and exit Ignore mode based on the
396 currently focused element. Currently, the [wasavi] extension as well as
397 [CodeMirror] in Vim mode are detected. Both of those provide Vim-style
398 editors. This allows sending `<escape>` to those editors in order to exit
399 their Insert mode, without blurring the editor.
400 - Improved: CodeMirror editors now get better hints, keeping the cursor where
401 you left it.
402 - Improved: The [blacklist][blacklist-2] is now applied faster on some pages.
403 - Improved: Many audio and video elements are now recognized as “adjustable”,
404 allowing you to press for example `<space>` on them to toggle play/pause,
405 without scrolling the page.
406 - Improved: Scrolling by pages, such as using the `<space>` command, now takes
407 fixed heaears and footers into account, just like Firefox does.
408 - Fixed: Access keys now work correctly in context menus in the devtools and
409 `about:config`.
410 - Improved: The arrow keys now Just Work in the devtools, even if you have bound
411 them to VimFx commands.
412 - Changed: The public API has been removed, and turned into the Config file API.
413 If you were already using a config file, it will no longer work. You need to
414 set up a new one, but you should be able to simply copy and paste the contents
415 of the old one into the new one. Read the [config file] documentation for more
416 information.
417 - Changed: There are a few minor breaking changes to the API, though I doubt it
418 will affect anyone.
419 - If you use [`vimfx.on`], you probably need to adjust the arguments of the
420 your callbacks. They are now _always_ passed an object of data, instead of
421 sometimes passing the data directly.
422 - `match.focus` of [match object]s has been removed, and replaced by
423 `vim.focusType` of [vim object]s.
424 - Fixed: The toolbar button’s icon is now correctly sized when setting
425 `layout.css.devPixelsPerPx` to `2`. Thanks to Robert Ma (@Hexcles) and Dale
426 Whinham (@dwhinham)!
427 - Fixed: Find commands now work when the find bar was opened before the page had
428 finished loading.
429 - Improved: Lots of internal improvements. This should make VimFx faster, more
430 reliable and more responsive.
431 - All keyboard event handling (except `<late>` shortcuts) are now handled in
432 the UI process, instead of mostly in each tab’s web page content process.
433 This should make VimFx’s shortcuts more reliable and responsive.
434 - Removed all synchronous message passing (execpt for `<late>` keypresses).
435 Mozilla recommends using them only where absolutely necessary. Turns out
436 VimFx doesn’t need them anymore!
437 - The `f` commands are now more reliable. Before, they could crash on rare
438 occasions (on certain web pages), but that is less likely now.
439 - Less `MutationObserver`s are now used. This should improve performance.
440 - Less uncaught errors (especially on shutdown).
441 - Lots of minor improvements.
442 - Updated locale: ja. Thanks to Kaoru Esashika (@pluser)!

452
453 ### 0.12.0 (2016-02-03)
454
455 - Improved: More clickable elements are now recognized. Most notably, elements
456 with click event listeners added by JavaScript now get hints.
457 - Improved: Autofocus prevention after using the `[` and `]` commands.
458 - Added: In VimFx’s Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog (which can be opened by
459 pressing `?`) you can now click on any command to open VimFx’s settings page
460 in the Add-ons Manager and automatically select the text input for that
461 command, letting you edit its shortcuts. Tip: Use the `zF` command to click
462 without using the mouse.
463 - Changed: Autofocus is no longer prevented in Firefox internal pages, such as
464 `about:preferences`, `about:addons` and `about:config` (as well as other XUL
465 pages).
466 - Fixed: VimFx and the Beyond Australis extension do not conflict with each
467 other anymore.
468 - Fixed: The `gH` command no longer nags you about “No back/forward history”
469 even though there is.
470 - Added: The `gl` command now takes a [count][gl-count].
471 - Improved: Optimized CPU usage in Hints mode. (See also the [`hints_sleep`]
472 pref.)
473 - Improved: The `H` and `L` commands should now be more reliable in Firefox 43
474 and later.
475 - Changed: There was a tiny breaking change to the Public API, though I doubt it
476 will affect anyone. (See [commit 0ca807605e] if you’re especially interested.)
477 - Improved: _Several_ minor things, and some really nice internal refactoring.
478 - Updated locale: de. Thanks to @just-barcodes!
479
480 [`hints_sleep`]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/92b483c4a4f6da0b2c998267e0f01d3d999f93b6/documentation/options.md#hints_sleep

482 [commit 0ca807605e]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/commit/0ca807605e8d69fdc01ef9ce5d539cf66ce7d96f
483
484 ### 0.11.0 (2016-01-15)
485
486 - Fixed: The `` ` `` command is no longer broken.
487 - Fixed: Memory leak.
488 - Added: The `gl` command, which takes you to the most recent tab.
489 - Improved: The Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog is now scrollable using VimFx’s
490 scrolling commands. To allow for this, the search field is no longer
491 autofocused. Instead, press `/` to open it.
492 - Improved: Using the `f` commands, such as `f` and `zf`, now works like
493 actually moving your mouse onto the link, making hover menus and such-like
494 appear.
495 - Improved: VimFx should now work better with Google Drive Documents, Etherpad
496 and a few other fancy text editors.
497 - Improved: The `]` command now works on google.com.
498 - Improved: Checkboxes and menu items on gmail.com are now given hints by the
499 `f` command.
500 - Improved: The `gi` command now also recognizes 'contenteditable' elements.
501 - Improved: Hint markers now move along together with their elements.
502 - Fixed: Hint markers should now be correctly positioned when zooming.
503 - Fixed: The toolbar button icon should now look correctly on Retina screens.
504 - Added: You may now disable counts by using toggling the [`counts_enabled`]
505 pref.
506 - Updated locale: de. Thanks to @just-barcodes!
507 - Improved: Several minor things.
508
509 [`counts_enabled`]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/8dae7aec9008595da31b939d5ae2d239849cf6dc/documentation/options.md#counts_enabled
510
511 ### 0.10.0 (2015-12-09)
512
513 - Added: The `zF` command, which lets you click browser elements.
514 - Improved: The scrolling commands can now scroll browser elements (in other
515 words, not only web page content), by first selecting the scollable element
516 using `zF`.
517 - Added: The `gr` command, which toggles [Reader View].
518 - Added: The `gX` command, which opens the Recently Closed Tabs menu at the
519 middle of the screen.
520 - Added: The keys you’ve typed so far of a command, as well the count, are now
521 shown in a [notification]. (You may disable this using the
522 [`notify_entered_keys`] pref.)
523 - Improved: When commands don’t do anything, they show a [notification] instead,
524 letting you know that you actually pressed the right keys. For example, if you
525 press `f` but there are no markable elements visible, a notification is shown
526 telling you so, instead of silently doing nothing.
527 - Improved: `<space>` now scrolls _about a line less_ than a full page, just
528 like Firefox does by default. `d` scroll about _half_ a line less (by
529 default), so that pressing `d` twice works like pressing `<space>` once. (See
530 the [`scroll.full_page_adjustment` and `scroll.half_page_adjustment`] prefs
531 for more information.)
532 - Improved: `gi` now only selects all text in its text input if you haven’t
533 focused a text input yet (allowing you to easily replace pre-filled text),
534 instead of _always_ doing so. Otherwise, it now puts the cursor where you left
535 off typing the last time.
536 - Fixed: The `f` commands now put the cursor where you left off typing the last
537 time when focusing a text input. Previously, they accidentally selected all
538 text in the text input (use `zf` for that behavior).
539 - Fixed: Yet a scrolling fix. VimFx’s scrolling commands should now “just work”
540 on even more sites.
541 - Fixed: AltGr should now work out of the box on Windows. (See the
542 [`ignore_ctrl_alt`] pref for more information.)
543 - Removed: The el-GR, hu and pl locales were sadly too out of date to be useful,
544 and nobody has shown interest in updating them, so they were removed.
545 - Updated locales: id, de and zh-CN. Thanks to Yoppy Halilintar, @just-barcodes
546 and @mozillazg!
547 - Fixed: Several tiny bugs.

554
555 ### 0.9.0 (2015-12-02)
556
557 - Fixed: Links with the `onclick` attribute can now be opened in new tabs again.
558 (Regression since 0.8.0.)
559 - Fixed: The text size in VimFx’s Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog is now
560 correctly resized.
561 - Added: The `gH` command. It opens the back/forward button context menu in the
562 middle of the window, allowing you to choose a history entry with the arrow
563 keys and `<enter>`.
564
565 ### 0.8.0 (2015-12-01)
566
567 - Fixed: VimFx now works properly in tabs moved to other windows.
568 - Fixed: An unreliable check for multi-process mode has been eliminated, fixing
569 various problems for some users.
570 - Fixed: VimFx’s toolbar button now changes color correctly when switching
571 between blacklisted and non-blacklisted tabs.
572 - Fixed: Dead keys now work out of the box on Windows.
573 - Improved: Links with the `onclick` attribute (abused as buttons) can no longer
574 get the same hint as another link.
575 - Added: The Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog (shown by pressing `?`) is now
576 searchable.
577 - Added: The `g/` command. It’s like `/` but searches links only.
578
579 - Added: [Marks].
580
581 - Use `ma` to mark the current scroll position and `` `a `` to return to it.
582 (You may substitute `a` with any key press.)
583 - Use ``` `` ``` to return to the position before the last `gg`, `G`, `0`,
584 `$`, `/`, `n`, `N` or `` ` ``. (You can change this mark using the
585 [`last_scroll_position_mark`] pref.)
586
587 - Added: Window commands.
588
589 - `w`: Open new window.
590 - `W`: Open new private window.
591 - `gw`: Move tab to new window.
592 - `gF`: Follow link in new window.

596
597 ### 0.7.3 (2015-11-22)
598
599 - Fixed: Scrolling now works correctly in pages in quirks mode (lacking a
600 doctype), such as Hackernews.
601 - Improved: The largest scrollable element is now detected better in frames.
602 - Fixed: Hints mode now exits correctly when focusing a text input using `af`,
603 or `f` with a count.
604
605 ### 0.7.2 (2015-11-21)
606
607 - Fixed: The blinking text caret now always appears correctly when focusing text
608 inputs.
609
610 ### 0.7.1 (2015-11-21)
611
612 - Fixed: The scrolling commands should now “just work” when using non-default
613 zoom or DPI settings, most notably on Google Groups.
614
615 ### 0.7.0 (2015-11-19)
616
617 - Changed: Instead of using system notifications, which turned out to be a bit
618 too intrusive, [notifications] are now similar to the “URL popup” (shown when
619 hovering or focusing links) but are placed on the opposite side,.
620 - Changed: The “Focus next element” and “Focus previous element” commands have
621 been removed. The reason they existed was to let `<tab>` and `<s-tab>` only
622 cycle between text inputs (as opposed to _all_ focusable elements) after
623 you’ve pressed `gi`. Now, `<tab>` and `<s-tab>` are handled specially instead,
624 and _only_ after pressing `gi`. The reason for this change is that the now
625 removed commands were too intrusive, breaking user habits. One of VimFx’s main
626 goal is _not_ to do that. (You can turn the special handling of `<tab>` and
627 `<s-tab>` off using the the new [`focus_previous_key` and `focus_next_key`]
628 prefs.)
629 - Fixed: The scrolling commands should now “just work” in a lot more situations,
630 most notably on Gmail and Google Groups. More scrollable elements are also
631 recognized by the `f` and `zf` commands.
632 - Improved: The right border of hint markers for scrollable elements is now
633 styled to remind of a scroll bar, making them easier to recognize among hints
634 for links.
635 - Improved/Changed: `J` and `gJ` now allow a count on the first tab.
636 Consequently, `K` and `gK` now allow a count on the _last_ tab.
637 - Changed: `gJ` and `gK` can no longer be used to pin or unpin tabs. They now
638 only wrap around tabs of the same pinned state. Use `gp` to toggle between
639 pinned and non-pinned.
640 - Fixed: Many elements that got a hint before VimFx 0.6.0 now do again.
641 - Improved: Comment fields on Facebook can now be focused using `f` and blurred
642 using `<escape>`.
643 - Improved: VimFx’s toolbar button is no greyed out when you focus a text input.
644 This is to show that your key presses will be passed into the text input
645 rather than activating VimFx commands.
646 - Added: [`g0`, `g^` and `g$` now accept counts][tab-index-counts], allowing you
647 to go to tab number _count._
648 - Improved: `gi` now finds text inputs inside frames.
649 - Fixed: “gi mode” is now exited properly when blurring a text input.
650 - Fixed: `<select>` elements are no longer considered to be text inputs when
651 using `<tab>` and `<s-tab>` in “gi mode.”
652 - Fixed: Using `<force>` or `<late>` in a shortcut no longer applies to _every_
653 shortcut for the command, but only that shortcut.
654 - Fixed: The order of the Previous/Next page patterns is now respected. This
655 caused the wrong link to be picked by the `[` and `]` commands on some pages.

660
661 ### 0.6.2 (2015-11-11)
662
663 - Improved: If the entire page isn’t scrollable, the largest scrollable element
664 is scrolled instead.
665 - Fixed: VimFx’s keyboard shortcuts now works on slowly loading pages.
666 - Fixed: Numbers may now be used as shortcut keys (overriding counts).
667 - Fixed: The toolbar button’s icon is now correctly sized in high DPI.
668 - Fixed: Hint markers are now correctly positioned when zooming using the “Zoom
669 text only” option.
670 - Fixed: The `P` command now works with the InstantFox add-on.
671
672 ### 0.6.1 (2015-11-10)
673
674 - Fixed: If you customized the “esc” command before VimFx 0.6.0 it should now
675 work as expected.
676 - Fixed: `<tab>` now works as expected in the location bar and in the dev tools.
677 - Fixed: Light-weight themes can no longer make VimFx’s Keyboard Shortcuts help
678 dialog and hint markers unreadable.
679 - Added: The [notifications\_enabled] option.
680
681 [notifications\_enabled]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/56c4b7c514ea8b58d2cdcecf3d2654648c48ca31/documentation/options.md#notifications_enabled
682
683 ### 0.6.0 (2015-11-09)
684
685 ##### Most important (breaking) changes
686
687 - VimFx now works properly with **any keyboard layout.** Users of **multiple
688 layouts** should enable the **[ignore keyboard layout] option.** #249 #259
689
690 - Features related to disabling VimFx, and to the [toolbar button]:
691
692 - **Insert Mode** has been renamed to **_Ignore_ mode.**
693 - **[Blacklisted][blacklist] sites** now **enter Ignore mode automatically,**
694 instead of being specially handled.
695 - The feature to click the toolbar button (or press `<a-V>`) to **disable
696 VimFx** has been **removed.** Use **Ignore mode** (`i`) and the
697 **[blacklist] instead.**
698 - The **toolbar button** is now **red in Ignore mode** (which also means that
699 it is red on blacklisted sites) and green otherwise (never grey anymore).
700 - The toolbar button no longer offers to (un-)blacklist the current domain.
701 (Head into VimFx’s settings page in the Add-ons Manager and add
702 `*currentdomain.com*` to the [blacklist] option yourself instead.)
703
704 (See [commit 3552282] for more information.)
705
706 - **Some default shortcuts have changed,** mostly because they conflicted with
707 standard Firefox shortcuts: #308
708
709 - `<c-J>` → `gJ`
710
711 - `<c-K>` → `gK`
712
713 - `g^` and `gH` → `g0`
714
715 `g^` now selects the first _non pinned_ tab instead, while `g0`
716 selects the first tab regardless of whether it is pinned or not. #317
717
718 - `<c-e>` (alias for `j`) and `<c-y>` (alias for `k`) have been removed.
719
720 - `<c-f>` → `<space>` and `<c-b>` → `<s-space>`
721
722 - `vf` → `zf`
723
724 This frees up `v` for future shortcuts (instead making `z` a
725 “namespace” key, just like in Vim).
726
727 - To **exit Ignore mode:** `<escape>` → `<s-escape>`. This is because Ignore
728 mode has replaced the disable feature, as well as the special blacklist
729 state (see above). Sites are likely to use `<escape>` but not `<s-escape>`.
730 (In a way, this new role of Ignore mode also means that the old (many times
731 broken) shortcut to disable VimFx (`<a-V>`) has been replaced by `i`.) #64
732 \#375 #432
733
734 - VimFx’s Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog is now help only, and more accessible.
735 To **customize keyboard shortcuts,** go to VimFx’s settings page **in the
736 Add-ons Manager,** just like you would to customize other settings. Also,
737 **commas** between every key are **no longer needed:** Type `gJ` instead of
738 `g,J`.
739
740 - For performance reasons, **Hint markers** are now placed vertically **centered
741 instead of at the top** of the element. Don’t be surprised if you see the same
742 hint repeated several times**—links that go to the same place now get the same
743 hint.** The “Smart hints” option has been removed—hints are _always_ smart
744 now, and a lot smarter than before. Finally, hints now also work in the new
745 tab page, the Add-ons Manager and the preferences page. If you want to, you
746 can read more about [the `f` commands]. \#51 #60 #176 #320 #325 #468 #471 #475
747
748 - The **`F`** command now _always_ opens tabs in new **background** tabs, while
749 **`gf`** has been added to open tabs in new **foreground** tabs. #227 #464
750
751 - **Autofocus prevention** is now **off by default.** One of VimFx’s core
752 philosophies is to be nice to your browser habits. Some find autofocus
753 prevention too big a change. Turn it on again if you like it! By the way,
754 autofocus prevention now works much more reliably and should not cause issues
755 with other extensions. #497 #541
756
757 - The **“Scroll step”** option has been **removed**. The scrolling commands that
758 used it now **work like the arrow keys instead,** and are customized just like
759 them. See [scrolling prefs] for more information.
760
761 - Speaking of scrolling, **which elements scrolls** when you use VimFx’s
762 scrolling commands **has changed.** See [scrolling commands] for more
763 information.
764
765 ##### New features
766
767 - New commands:
768
769 - `gp` pins or unpins the current tab. (Also see `g^` and `g0` mentioned
770 above.) #121
771 - `yt` duplicates the current tab. #121
772 - `0` and `^` scroll to the far left, and `$` scrolls to the far right.
773 - [`gi`] has finally been implemented. #47
774 - [Ignore mode `<s-f1>`] let you run a Normal mode command without exiting
775 Ignore mode.
776
777 - In Hints mode you can now hold ctrl and alt to change behavior of the matched
778 marker. Hold shift to temporarily make the hints see-through. See [the `f`
779 commands] for more information. #220 #421 #484
780
781 - Some commands now accept [counts]. #374
782
783 - It is now possible to create shortcuts that work inside text inputs. See the
784 [`<force>`] key for more information. #258
785
786 - It is now possible to create shortcuts that the page can override. See the
787 [`<late>`] key for more information.
788
789 - A number of [advanced options] have been added. Rather than listing everything
790 regarding them here, follow that link if you’re interested. #452 #489
791
792 - You may now, if you want to, configure VimFx through a [config file], using
793 the new [public API]. Customizing VimFx through a config file also gives extra
794 abilities, such as [site-specific options][option-overrides] and [disabling
795 certain commands on certain sites][key-overrides]. It also allows to add
796 [custom commands] \(and other extensions to extend VimFx). #158 #235 #255 #261
797 \#300 #408 #445 #490 #515
798
799 - It is now easier to customize VimFx through custom [styling]. An example is
800 changing the way hint markers look. #220 #233 #424 #432 #465
801
802 - VimFx now has [documentation] and a [wiki].
803
804 - A few new locales were added:
805
806 - fr. Thanks to Mickaël RAYBAUD-ROIG (@m-r-r)!
807 - pt-BR. Thanks to Átila Camurça Alves (@atilacamurca)!
808 - sv-SE. Thanks to Andreas Lindhé (@lindhe)!
809
810 ##### Improvements
811
812 - VimFx is now multi-process/Electrolysis/e10s compatible! This means that you
813 can run VimFx on a version of Firefox with multi-process enabled without
814 issues, and that we’re future proof for the day when Firefox becomes
815 multi-process by default. Best of all, it also made VimFx more reliable in
816 non-multi-process (“regular”) Firefox. #378
817
818 - The `[` and `]` commands are now smarter, recognizing more links to the
819 previous/next page correctly. You may read more about [previous/next page
820 patterns]. #396
821
822 - The `n` and `N` commands now notify you when they wrap around the page, or the
823 phrase you searched for could not be found. #398
824
825 - _All_ shortcuts in _all modes_ can now be customized. For example, this allows
826 you to disable VimFx’s Vim-style `<enter>` behavior in the find bar. #222 #390
827 \#421
828
829 - The `p` and `P` commands are now smarter regarding whether to treat the
830 clipboard contents as a URL or a search, by working exactly like pasting in
831 the location bar. They also now read the selection clipboard, if available.
832 \#353 #382
833
834 - VimFx’s toolbar button is now properly implemented. #303 #349 #383
835
836 - Most locales were updated. Thanks to our awesome [translators]!
837
838 ##### Minor bug fixes
839
840 - VimFx now works correctly in tabs dragged to other windows. #57
841 - The `p` command is no longer broken. #494
842 - Non-ASCII shortcut keys now work properly. #433
843 - The Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog can no longer be covered by page elements.
844 \#477
845 - Hint markers can no longer be covered by page elements.
846 - VimFx no longer causes scripts on icloud.com to get stuck in an infinite loop.

872
873 ### 0.5.17 (2015-01-23)
874
875 - Fixed: The hints generation no longer crashes on some pages (regression since
876 version 0.5.15).
877
878 ### 0.5.16 (2015-01-22)
879
880 - Fixed: The toolbar button no longer throws errors. (This fix should have been
881 in 0.5.15 but was forgotten. Luckily an AMO reviewer found it.)
882
883 ### 0.5.15 (2015-01-21)
884
885 - Improved: This version is now forwards-compatible with the upcoming version
886 0.6.0. Downgrading from 0.6.0 to 0.5.14 or older might cause VimFx to crash,
887 but downgrading from 0.6.0 to 0.5.15 is safe.
888 - Fixed: Non-hintchars key presses in hints mode are now suppressed. They used
889 to be passed along to the browser, which could confusingly activate site
890 commands.
891 - Fixed: The 'f' command now always opens links in the same tab. Links used to
892 be able to force a new tab or window.
893 - Fixed: Pressing 'Esc' in the location bar now restores the URL, as is the
894 default behaviour of Firefox. You may now also close Firefox dialogs using
895 'Esc'.
896 - Improved: Updated the de locale. Thanks to Alexander Haeussler!
897 - Improved: Updated the pl locale. Thanks to morethanoneanimal!
898
899 ### 0.5.14 (2014-08-16)
900
901 - Fixed: Locales should now work properly.
902 - Improved: Updated the zh-CN locale (@mozillazg).
903 - Improved: Updated the de locale (@Kambfhase).
904 - Added: Japanese locale (@pluser).
905 - Fixed: If you switched to another tab or window while an `<input>` element
906 was focused and then switched back, the `<input>` element got blurred, while
907 it should have stayed focused. This caused the auto-type feature of KeePassX
908 to break.
909
910 ### 0.5.13 (2014-08-02)
911
912 - Fixed: The vote button on StackExchange sites are now markable again.
913 - Improved: Detection of previous/next links. Should work better on gmail now.
914 - Fixed: It is now possible to use Enter/Return in keyboard shortcuts.
915 - Improved: The n/N commands (etc.) now work even if you didn’t open the finbar
916 using the VimFx command (such as the default key binding ctrl+f, or by
917 clicking a menu item).
918 - Improved: It is now possible to blur text inputs without sending Esc to the
919 page, which could cause dialogs etc. to annoyingly close.
920 - Improved: Updated the el-GR locale (@sirodoht).
921 - Fixed: Autofocus prevention sometimes made text inputs impossible to focus
922 until you reloaded the page.
923 - Improved: Autofocus prevention now works on more sites than before.
924 - Improved: Autofocus prevention now prevents _all_ automatic focusing (not
925 just when the page loads). This makes devdocs.io much easier to use.
926 - Added: When viewing images directly and the image has been resized to fit the
927 screen the image is now markable, allowing you to toggle zoom on it using the
928 keyboard.
929 - Fixed: It is no longer possible to add conflicting shortcuts (such as adding
930 'a' when 'af' and 'as' are already present).
931
932 ### 0.5.12 (2014-06-01)
933
934 - Fixed: Autofocus prevention got stuck sometimes, making it impossible to
935 focus inputs.
936
937 ### 0.5.11 (2014-06-01)
938
939 - Fixed: The focus search bar command was broken.
940 - Fixed: Autofocus prevention was broken.
941 - Fixed: The top bar on YouTube could not be accessed by VimFx.
942 - Fixed: You can no longer add blank hotkeys.
943 - Improved: Tab Groups are supported.
944 - Improved: Matching of previous/next links should be more reliable.
945 - Improved: A few minor things.
946
