VimFx v0.20.10
[VimFx.git] / CHANGELOG.md
1 ### 0.20.10 (2017-03-25)
2
3 - Improved: Autofocus is now prevented when going back in history on pages that
4 use `history.pushState()` (in other words, on the 'popstate' event).
5 - Updated locale: ja. Thanks to Kaoru Esashika (@pluser)!
6
7 ### 0.20.9 (2017-02-21)
8
9 - Fixed: The `yy` command now works as expected in Reader Mode.
10
11 ### 0.20.8 (2017-01-14)
12
13 - Improved: The scrolling commands now scroll the closest scrollable parent of
14 the currently focused element (if it is not scrollable itself). This is
15 noticeable for Twitter’s modals, which are often scrollable. No longer any
16 need to use the `f` or `ef` commands to scroll those modals!
17
18 ### 0.20.7 (2017-01-07)
19
20 - Improved: The `[` and `]` commands now work in Google search results.
21 - Improved: You can now show the “emoji picker” of the “like” button on Facebook
22 by using the `ef` command.
23 - Updated locale: de. Thanks to @interleaved!
24
25 ### 0.20.6 (2016-12-16)
26
27 - Fixed: The `'`, `g[` and `g]` commands no longer crash. (Regression since
28 0.20.5.)
29 - Fixed: The `ef` command can now focus elements in deeply nested frames again.
30 (Regression since 0.19.0.)
31 - Fixed: `vimfx.addOptionOverrides` and `vimfx.addKeyOverrides` are now properly
32 undone when reloading a config file (`gC`).
33 - Improved: Hint markers for elements with multiline text no longer cover the
34 text.
35 - Updated locale: de. Thanks to @interleaved!
36
37 ### 0.20.5 (2016-12-04)
38
39 - Fixed: Scrolling by holding `d`, `u`, `<space>` or `<s-space>` no longer goes
40 slower and slower (and finally grinding to a halt) on long pages with lots of
41 elements. (See also the [`scroll.repeat_timeout`] pref.)
42 - Improved: All config API functions now validate all their parameters properly.
43 This provides a better user experience, and, most importantly, prevents VimFx
44 from crashing on certain invalid input.
45
46 [`scroll.repeat_timeout`]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/58deb3f7b7c470a4d705f1dabf7aa13e095e8d09/documentation/options.md#smooth-scrolling
47
48 ### 0.20.4 (2016-11-16)
49
50 - Fixed: The `n` and `N` commands now work in Firefox’s PDF viewer.
51 - Fixed: The `eb` command can now click the tab bar scroll buttons.
52 - Fixed: Elements marked by the `eb` command now correctly get hints based on
53 their area again.
54 - Improved: The `eb` command now favors the browser tabs and their close
55 buttons, giving them better hints.
56 - Improved: The hints given to the browser tabs by the `eb` command are now
57 consistent no matter how many tabs you have open. This means that the first
58 tab always gets the same hint, the second tab always get the same hint, and so
59 on.
60 - Improved: Hint markers are now placed next to the text of the element if
61 appropriate. For example, the hint marker for a button with centered text is
62 now placed just to the left of the text rather than at the left edge of
63 button. This is nice because it means that hint markers usually end up where
64 you were just reading.
65 - Improved: The positioning of hint markers has been fine-tuned by a pixel or so
66 in some cases.
67 - Improved: Custom styled checkboxes and radio buttons now get hint markers
68 faster (they are now found in the first pass rather than the second).
69 - Improved: Compatibility with the [Tab Center] add-on.
70 - Improved: Blurring the location bar is now more consistent. Previously, its
71 text wasn’t reset if the autocomplete popup was open when you pressed
72 `<escape>` to blur it.
73 - Fixed: An edge case where the wrong hint markers could be highlighted.
74
75 [Tab Center]: https://testpilot.firefox.com/experiments/tab-center/
76
77 ### 0.20.3 (2016-10-22)
78
79 - Improved: Full page scrolling now recognizes the fixed footer on medium.com.
80 - Fixed: Scrollable element can now be focused with the `f` command again (not
81 just with the `ef` command). (Regression since 0.19.0.)
82 - Fixed: `<escape>` is no longer accidentally leaked to the page when used to
83 blur text inputs. This allows blurring text inputs in modals without closing
84 the modal (which `<escape>` commonly does otherwise).
85
86 ### 0.20.2 (2016-10-16)
87
88 - Fixed: Text inputs and links inside frames can now be focused using hint
89 commands again. (Regression since 0.19.0.)
90 - Improved: Previously focused text inputs inside frames no longer steal the
91 focus when entering Caret mode in that frame.
92 - Improved: When several hint markers have the same hint (because their links
93 go to the same place), the _largest_ of those links is now chosen when
94 activating that hint. This might be noticeable via focus styling.
95 - Updated locale: zh-CN. Thanks to @av2000ii!
96
97 ### 0.20.1 (2016-10-09)
98
99 - Improved: Caret mode is now a bit more robust. It can no longer make you end
100 up with [Firefox’s own Caret mode] accidentally enabled.
101 - Improved: If you try use for example `<ctrl>-j` as a keyboard shortcut, VimFx
102 will now tell you that you probably want `<c-j>` instead.
103 - Fixed: Using a keyboard shortcut to switch keyboard layout in GNOME while
104 inside a text input no longer causes the focus of that text input to be lost
105 when the Prevent autofocus option is enabled.
106 - Updated locale: zh-CN. Thanks to @av2000ii!
107
108 [Firefox’s own Caret mode]: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Accessibility_features_of_Firefox#Allow_text_to_be_selected_with_the_keyboard
109
110 ### 0.20.0 (2016-10-02)
111
112 - Added: The `g[` and `g]` commands, which let you scroll to previous and next
113 scroll positions of the current page. This is similar to Vim’s jump list.
114 - Added: The `/` mark. Pressing `'/` takes you to the scroll position before the
115 last `/`, `a/` or `g/`.
116 - Fixed: Pressing `''` multiple times in a row now flips back and forth
117 between two scroll positions as expected.
118 - Fixed: Version 0.19.0 claimed to include the following improvement: “The hint
119 marker for a smaller element can no longer cover the hint marker for a larger
120 element (unless you press `<c-space>` to rotate them).” However, a silly
121 mistake caused that improvement not to work. Now it does. For real.
122 - Fixed: All VimFx commands that copy text to the clipboard are now made sure to
123 also copy to the “selection clipboard” (if your system has such a thing). For
124 example, if you copy text using the `yv` command, the `p` command now uses
125 that copied text as expected.
126
127 ### 0.19.1 (2016-09-26)
128
129 - Fixed: The `'` command no longer crashes. (Regression since 0.19.0.)
130
131 ### 0.19.0 (2016-09-25)
132
133 #### Changes and improvements to Hints mode
134
135 **New feature:** Hint markers can now be filtered by element text, similar to
136 Vimium, Vimperator and Pentadactyl. This is useful for people who simply prefer
137 that workflow, and for clicking tiny pagination links (simply type its number!).
138
139 By default, filtering by element text is done by typing _uppercase_ characters
140 (hold down shift!). All characters other than the hint characters are now used
141 to filter hint markers by element text (rather than just being ignored). Do you
142 prefer filtering by element text, but dislike typing uppercase letters? Have a
143 look at how [hint characters] work to make things the other way around!
144
145 The markers with the best hint are now highlighted with a different color. You
146 may at any time press `<enter>` to activate those markers (or `<c-enter>` or
147 `<a-enter>` to change where and how to open links, just like you can hold ctrl
148 or alt for the last hint character).
149
150 Because of the above new features, the following default **Hints mode shortcuts
151 had to be changed:**
152
153 - `<space>` → `<c-space>` (`<s-space>` is left untouched)
154 - `<s->` → `<c-s->` (hold ctrl _and_ shift to peek through hint markers)
155 - `<enter>` → `<up>`
156 - `<c-enter>` → `<c-backspace>`
157
158 To make it easier to see the element text, hint markers are now nudged to the
159 left if they cover the text.
160
161 Other hint marker improvements:
162
163 - Hint markers are now 20% smaller by default. While trying to match text sizes
164 set by your operating system, they ended up a bit too large on most systems.
165 Check out the [Styling] documentation if you’d like to change the font size.
166 - Hint markers now have stronger contrast between the background color and the
167 text color, which should make them easier to read.
168 - The CSS for hint markers have been improved, making it easier to use custom
169 [Styling].
170 - When several elements have the same area, the best hint is now correctly given
171 to the _first_ of those elements. Previously, it happened to be the other way
172 around.
173 - The hint marker for a smaller element can no longer cover the hint marker for
174 a larger element (unless you press `<c-space>` to rotate them).
175 - Hint markers are now better positioned when having zoomed the page in or out.
176 - Hints mode is now more robust in general. Several race conditions have been
177 fixed.

181
182 #### Other updates
183
184 - Added: The ability to **export, import and reset all** VimFx options. There
185 are three shiny new buttons for this in VimFx’s options page in the Add-ons
186 Manager!
187 - Added: The `gB` command, which lets you **quickly blacklist** (and
188 un-blacklist) sites.
189 - Added: The `ec` command, for opening the context menu of elements.
190 - Added: The `ep` command, for opening links in new private windows.
191 - Improved: `h`, `l`, `j` and `k` now feel more like scrolling with the arrow
192 keys when held down, by boosting the scrolling speed. See the
193 [`scroll.horizontal_boost` and `scroll.vertical_boost`][scroll-boost] options
194 for more information.
195 - Fixed: VimFx’s find bar integration is now much more robust. Most notably, if
196 you start typing directly after pressing `/` and Firefox is slow at opening
197 the find bar, your keypresses can no longer trigger VimFx commands or Firefox
198 built-in commands.
199 - Improved: VimFx no longer leaks keypresses to the web page in some modes. (For
200 example, counts in Caret mode).
201 - Improved: The `eb` command now finds more clickable elements in the devtools.
202 - Changed: `vimfx.addKeyOverrides` no longer lets you easily break for example
203 Hints mode, by now only being applied to Normal mode. You might need to change
204 your matchers from `(location, mode) => ...` to simply `location => ...`.
205 (Breaking API change.)
206 - Changed: The object passed to custom commands (and custom modes) no longer
207 contains a `uiEvent` property. Instead, there’s an `event` property. This
208 property can be used the same way if you check `vim.isUIEvent(event)` first.
209 (Breaking API change.)
210
211 [scroll-boost]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/8bafdf0454043c1630bac8b13d13f1fb4e5ee9e7/documentation/options.md#scrollhorizontal_boost-and-scrollvertical_boost
212
213 ### 0.18.1 (2016-08-27)
214
215 - Fixed: `vimfx.addOptionOverrides` no longer crashes on startup.
216 - Fixed: `vimfx.addOptionOverrides` can now override the `prevent_autofocus`
217 pref again.
218
219 ### 0.18.0 (2016-08-20)
220
221 #### Changed default shortcuts
222
223 Some default keyboard shortcuts have been changed.
224
225 - Hint commands. Many of the old ones were difficult to remember, and there was
226 no space for adding new ones.
227
228 - `gf` → `et` (t as in tab)
229 - `gF` → `ew` (w as in window)
230 - `zf` → `ef` (f as in focus)
231 - `zF` → `eb` (b as in browser)
232 - `zv` → `av` (you actually select _all_ of the element’s text)
233
234 (`f`, `yf`, `af`, `v` and `yv` stay unchanged.)
235
236 There is a longer [explanation of these new defaults][hint-shortcuts] in the
237 documentation.
238
239 - `zr` → `gC`. `zr` was the only shortcut starting with `z`. This frees that key
240 up for other uses.
241
242 - `` ` `` → `'`. The `` ` `` shortcut (“scroll to mark”) as well as the `` ` ``
243 mark (“last position mark”) have both been changed to `'`. Both `` ` `` and
244 `'` are used in Vim. `'` is a better default, because it is easier to
245 type–both on an en-US QWERTY keyboard and, more importantly, on some
246 international layouts, such as the sv-SE QWERTY layout.
247
248 Note: If you miss Firefox’s default `'` shortcut to open the Quick Find bar
249 (which is now overridden), remember that VimFx provides `g/` which does the
250 same thing. (You can of course also change VimFx’s shortcuts.)
251
252 See also issue [#788].

255 [#788]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/issues/788
256
257 #### Other updates
258
259 - Added: It is now possible to create [custom hint commands].
260 - Fixed: The bottom-right corner of the page scrollbars can now be used with the
261 mouse again.
262 - Fixed: The toolbar button now correctly toggles VimFx’s Keyboard Shortcuts
263 dialog again.
264 - Updated locales: fr, ru. Thanks to Mickaël RAYBAUD-ROIG (@m-r-r) and Nicholas
265 Guriev (@mymedia2)!
266
267 [custom hint commands]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/e8d9df31dd5c8df999ac22e3b3b8d548a68c6fa7/documentation/api.md#custom-hint-commands
268
269 ### 0.17.4 (2016-07-11)
270
271 - Improved: The usage of modifier keys in Hints mode is now shown in VimFx’s
272 Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog. The functionality has been there for a long
273 time, but should now be easier to find. Thanks to our awesome translators,
274 the new help text is already available in most supported locales!
275 - Improved: If you submit a form while still being inside one of its text
276 inputs, that text input is now automatically blurred. This lets you use VimFx
277 commands while waiting for the form to submit without having to press
278 `<escape>` first.
279 - Improved: The `gu` command now works better on some pages, by preserving a
280 trailing slash. Thanks to @sinkuu!
281 - Improved: VimFx now recognizes text areas in the TYPO3 CMS.
282 - Improved: The `<escape>` command and the toolbar button now let you escape
283 back to Normal mode if VimFx ever gets stuck thinking that you are typing in a
284 text input.
285
286 ### 0.17.3 (2016-06-27)
287
288 - Improved: The `zF` command can now open even more dropdown menus of buttons.
289
290 ### 0.17.2 (2016-06-19)
291
292 - Improved: The `zF` command now works with more buttons and is able to open
293 dropdown menus of buttons.
294 - Fixed: The `f` commands now recognize more file upload buttons.
295 - Fixed: Rotating hint markers now works more as expected after having entered a
296 few hint chars.
297 - Fixed: Scrolling now works in SVG documents.
298 - Fixed: Opening links in new tabs in Firefox 50.
299 - Updated locales: pt-BR and ru. Thanks to Átila Camurça Alves (@atilacamurca)
300 and Nicholas Guriev (@mymedia2)!
301
302 ### 0.17.1 (2016-06-12)
303
304 - Fixed: The `zF` command no longer accidentally double-clicks instead of
305 single-clicking. Thanks to Alan Wu (@XrXr)!
306 - Fixed: The `zF` command no longer crashes in Firefox 49+.
307 - Fixed: The “URL popup,” shown when hovering or focusing links, now appears
308 again when focusing links using `zf` (regression since 0.17.0).
309 - Updated locale: it. Thanks to Carlo Bertoldi (@cbertoldi)!
310
311 ### 0.17.0 (2016-06-08)
312
313 - Fixed: VimFx no longer scrolls smaller elements on a page instead of the
314 entire page on some sites.
315 - Improved: The `/`, `n` and `N` have been drastically sped up (when
316 [`find_from_top_of_viewport`][find_from_top_of_viewport-1] is on). Previously,
317 they appeared to freeze on some sites, but not anymore.
318 - Improved: You can no longer accidentally trigger VimFx between pressing `/`
319 and the find bar input being is focused.
320 - Improved: The `n` and `N` commands are now more robust.
321 - Improved: “Fullscreen” buttons and “Copy to clipboard” buttons can now be
322 activated the `f` command. Thanks to Alan Wu (@XrXr)!
323 - Changed: After having pressed `m` or `` ` `` VimFx no longer waits
324 indefinitely for you to press a mark key. Instead, the [timeout] option is
325 honored.
326 - Changed: After having pressed `m` or `` ` `` you can now press `<escape>` to
327 abort those commands.
328 - Changed: Find mode is no longer shown in VimFx’s Keyboard Shortcuts help
329 dialog, to reduce clutter. (This can be changed through custom
330 [styling][styling-1].)
331 - Changed: The `?` command as well as the toolbar button now _toggle_ VimFx’s
332 Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog (instead of always showing it, even if it was
333 already shown.)
334 - Changed: Counts are now ignored in Ignore mode. Previously, pressing number
335 keys would both send those key presses to the page _and_ contribute to the
336 count for commands (showing up in the bottom-right corner). This is no longer
337 the case.
338 - Updated locales: fr, zh-CN and zh-TW. Thanks to Mickaël RAYBAUD-ROIG (@m-r-r),
339 @av2000ii and Robert Wang (@cyberrob)!

344
345 ### 0.16.1 (2016-05-29)
346
347 - Fixed: The `zF` command no longer crashes (regression since 0.16.0).
348
349 ### 0.16.0 (2016-05-29)
350
351 - Fixed: The text input focus detection problems introduced in 0.15.1, which
352 sometimes caused VimFx commands to be triggered while typing in text inputs,
353 have been fixed.
354 - Improved: If you press `n` or `N` when there are are no matches for your
355 search, the find bar is no longer opened. Only a notification is shown. The
356 reliability of those notifications has also been improved.
357 - Improved: Hints mode now finds more links.
358 - Improved: Pressing `<c-enter>` in Hints mode now includes more elements.
359 - Updated locales: es, zh-CN. Thanks to @strel and @av2000ii!
360
361 ### 0.15.1 (2016-05-22)
362
363 - Improved: Better hints on Twitter.
364 - Improved: Compatibility with the [Evernote Web Clipper] add-on (and
365 potentially other add-ons with similar UI).
366 - Updated locale: ja. Thanks to Kaoru Esashika (@pluser)!
367
368 [Evernote Web Clipper]: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/evernote-web-clipper/
369
370 ### 0.15.0 (2016-05-18)
371
372 - Improved: Hint markers now appear up to twice as fast on many pages. This is
373 done by creating the hint markers in two phases. Most are created in the
374 first, fast, phase. The rest take the same time as older VimFx versions to
375 show up.
376 - Fixed: VimFx no longer triggers commands while typing in fancy text inputs on
377 some sites, such as when composing a new tweet on Twitter. (See also the
378 [`blur_timeout`] pref.)
379 - Changed: The `<c-enter>` Hints mode command no longer _replaces_ all hint
380 markers on screen (with new ones for all elements on screen). Instead, it
381 _toggles_ your current hint markers with ones for all _other_ elements on
382 screen.
383 - Changed: There was a breaking change to the [`vimfx.setHintMatcher`] function
384 of the `frame.js` config file API. It no longer receives and returns an object
385 (of the shape `{type, semantic}`), but instead simply receives and returns the
386 `type` of the element.
387 - Improved: Some internal robustness refactoring.
388 - Updated locales: de, id, nl and zh-CN. Thanks to @just-barcodes, Yoppy
389 Halilintar (@comepradz), @HJTP, @av2000ii and @mozillazg.

393
394 ### 0.14.3 (2016-05-08)
395
396 - Fixed: Version 0.14.2 attempted to fix smooth scrolling speed in newer Firefox
397 versions. However, there was a tiny typo that caused the fix not to work. That
398 typo has been corrected.
399
400 ### 0.14.2 (2016-05-08)
401
402 - Fixed: Smooth scrolling speed is now correct again in newer Firefox versions.
403 - Fixed: The `yv` Caret mode command now only copies text that you can see on
404 screen (not any hidden text that might be on the page), making it truly work
405 like `zv` followed by `y`, as intended. This problem was very noticeable on
406 Slack. This also improves copying of 'contenteditable' elements using `yf`.
407 - Fixed: `<escape>` and arrow key handling as well as hint markers in the
408 devtools now work correctly again in newer Firefox versions.
409 - Fixed: VimFx no longer makes it impossible to open the Developer Toolbar.
410 - Improved: VimFx now ignores `<numlock>` and `<capslock>`. If your keyboard
411 sends `<numlock>` before some symbols, such as `<numlock>$` instead of just
412 `$`, shortcuts like `gx$` now work out of the box. This also means that you
413 can use `<capslock>` instead of `<shift>` when typing the `J` in `gJ`, for
414 example.
415 - Improved: Some minor cosmetic tweaks in VimFx’s Keyboard Shortcuts help
416 dialog.
417
418 ### 0.14.1 (2016-04-30)
419
420 - Fixed: The Find commands (such as `/`, `n` and `N`) no longer crash on some
421 sites (regression since 0.14.0).
422
423 ### 0.14.0 (2016-04-29)
424
425 - Added: [Caret mode], which lets you copy text from web pages using the
426 keyboard.
427 - Improved: The Find commands (such as `/`, `n` and `N`) now search from the top
428 of the viewport, instead of from the top of the document, which is more
429 Vim-like and less disorienting. To read more about it (or to return to the
430 Firefox default behavior) please see the [`find_from_top_of_viewport`] pref.
431 - Improved: Compatibility with the [BackTrack Tab History] add-on.
432 - Added: The `<c-enter>` Hints mode command, which creates hint markers for
433 _all_ elements.
434 - Fixed: `__dirname` inside config files now works on Windows. Thanks to
435 Zhong Jianxin (@azuwis)!
436 - Fixed: Unnecessary full-page hint markers on some sites, such as Hackernews,
437 no longer appear.

442
443 ### 0.13.2 (2016-04-08)
444
445 - Improved: The “last position mark” `` ` `` now works more reliably.
446 - Improved: More video players are now recognized. Many video players lets you
447 press `<space>` while focused to toggle play/pause. VimFx tries to detect if
448 the currently focused element is a video player. If so, `<space>` is passed to
449 the video player instead of scrolling the page. (For those interested, see
450 also the [`adjustable_element_keys`] pref.)
451
452 [`adjustable_element_keys`]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/645e35d7d82019b0551534c43926bc126e7105bd/documentation/options.md#adjustable_element_keys
453
454 ### 0.13.1 (2016-04-01)
455
456 - Fixed: Blacklisting of some XUL pages.
457 - Fixed: The current mode is no longer lost when a page loads. For example, if
458 you press `zF` while a page is loading, the markers no longer disappear.
459 - Fixed: Elements that you have focused using an `f` command no longer get stuck
460 appearing as if you’d put the mouse pointer.
461 - Updated locale: zh-CN. Thanks to @mozillazg!
462
463 ### 0.13.0 (2016-03-19)
464
465 - Added: The `T` command, which opens a new tab after the current.
466 - Changed: The `gl` command now deals with _visited_ tabs only.
467 - Added: The [`gL`] command, which deals with <em>un</em>visited tabs only, in
468 oldest-first order. Use this to step through your unvisited background tabs in
469 the order you opened them (for example using the `F` command).
470 - Improved: The `gi` command no longer tries to focus the last focused text
471 input if it has been removed from the page. If so, it finds a new one instead.
472 - Fixed: You can now type in sidebar text inputs (such as in the history
473 sidebar) without having to switch to Ignore mode.
474 - Changed: If you enter Ignore mode you will now stay in Ignore mode in that tab
475 until you explicitly exit it (by pressing `<s-escape>`), even if you reload
476 the page or follow a link. If Ignore mode was entered automatically because of
477 the [blacklist][blacklist-2], though, you will be automatically returned to
478 Normal mode if
479 the URL changes to a non-blacklisted page.
480 - Added: VimFx can now automatically enter and exit Ignore mode based on the
481 currently focused element. Currently, the [wasavi] extension as well as
482 [CodeMirror] in Vim mode are detected. Both of those provide Vim-style
483 editors. This allows sending `<escape>` to those editors in order to exit
484 their Insert mode, without blurring the editor.
485 - Improved: CodeMirror editors now get better hints, keeping the cursor where
486 you left it.
487 - Improved: The [blacklist][blacklist-2] is now applied faster on some pages.
488 - Improved: Many audio and video elements are now recognized as “adjustable”,
489 allowing you to press for example `<space>` on them to toggle play/pause,
490 without scrolling the page.
491 - Improved: Scrolling by pages, such as using the `<space>` command, now takes
492 fixed heaears and footers into account, just like Firefox does.
493 - Fixed: Access keys now work correctly in context menus in the devtools and
494 `about:config`.
495 - Improved: The arrow keys now Just Work in the devtools, even if you have bound
496 them to VimFx commands.
497 - Changed: The public API has been removed, and turned into the Config file API.
498 If you were already using a config file, it will no longer work. You need to
499 set up a new one, but you should be able to simply copy and paste the contents
500 of the old one into the new one. Read the [config file] documentation for more
501 information.
502 - Changed: There are a few minor breaking changes to the API, though I doubt it
503 will affect anyone.
504 - If you use [`vimfx.on`], you probably need to adjust the arguments of the
505 your callbacks. They are now _always_ passed an object of data, instead of
506 sometimes passing the data directly.
507 - `match.focus` of [match object]s has been removed, and replaced by
508 `vim.focusType` of [vim object]s.
509 - Fixed: The toolbar button’s icon is now correctly sized when setting
510 `layout.css.devPixelsPerPx` to `2`. Thanks to Robert Ma (@Hexcles) and Dale
511 Whinham (@dwhinham)!
512 - Fixed: Find commands now work when the find bar was opened before the page had
513 finished loading.
514 - Improved: Lots of internal improvements. This should make VimFx faster, more
515 reliable and more responsive.
516 - All keyboard event handling (except `<late>` shortcuts) are now handled in
517 the UI process, instead of mostly in each tab’s web page content process.
518 This should make VimFx’s shortcuts more reliable and responsive.
519 - Removed all synchronous message passing (execpt for `<late>` keypresses).
520 Mozilla recommends using them only where absolutely necessary. Turns out
521 VimFx doesn’t need them anymore!
522 - The `f` commands are now more reliable. Before, they could crash on rare
523 occasions (on certain web pages), but that is less likely now.
524 - Less `MutationObserver`s are now used. This should improve performance.
525 - Less uncaught errors (especially on shutdown).
526 - Lots of minor improvements.
527 - Updated locale: ja. Thanks to Kaoru Esashika (@pluser)!

537
538 ### 0.12.0 (2016-02-03)
539
540 - Improved: More clickable elements are now recognized. Most notably, elements
541 with click event listeners added by JavaScript now get hints.
542 - Improved: Autofocus prevention after using the `[` and `]` commands.
543 - Added: In VimFx’s Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog (which can be opened by
544 pressing `?`) you can now click on any command to open VimFx’s settings page
545 in the Add-ons Manager and automatically select the text input for that
546 command, letting you edit its shortcuts. Tip: Use the `zF` command to click
547 without using the mouse.
548 - Changed: Autofocus is no longer prevented in Firefox internal pages, such as
549 `about:preferences`, `about:addons` and `about:config` (as well as other XUL
550 pages).
551 - Fixed: VimFx and the Beyond Australis extension do not conflict with each
552 other anymore.
553 - Fixed: The `gH` command no longer nags you about “No back/forward history”
554 even though there is.
555 - Added: The `gl` command now takes a [count][gl-count].
556 - Improved: Optimized CPU usage in Hints mode. (See also the [`hints_sleep`]
557 pref.)
558 - Improved: The `H` and `L` commands should now be more reliable in Firefox 43
559 and later.
560 - Changed: There was a tiny breaking change to the Public API, though I doubt it
561 will affect anyone. (See [commit 0ca807605e] if you’re especially interested.)
562 - Improved: _Several_ minor things, and some really nice internal refactoring.
563 - Updated locale: de. Thanks to @just-barcodes!
564
565 [`hints_sleep`]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/92b483c4a4f6da0b2c998267e0f01d3d999f93b6/documentation/options.md#hints_sleep

568
569 ### 0.11.0 (2016-01-15)
570
571 - Fixed: The `` ` `` command is no longer broken.
572 - Fixed: Memory leak.
573 - Added: The `gl` command, which takes you to the most recent tab.
574 - Improved: The Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog is now scrollable using VimFx’s
575 scrolling commands. To allow for this, the search field is no longer
576 autofocused. Instead, press `/` to open it.
577 - Improved: Using the `f` commands, such as `f` and `zf`, now works like
578 actually moving your mouse onto the link, making hover menus and such-like
579 appear.
580 - Improved: VimFx should now work better with Google Drive Documents, Etherpad
581 and a few other fancy text editors.
582 - Improved: The `]` command now works on google.com.
583 - Improved: Checkboxes and menu items on gmail.com are now given hints by the
584 `f` command.
585 - Improved: The `gi` command now also recognizes 'contenteditable' elements.
586 - Improved: Hint markers now move along together with their elements.
587 - Fixed: Hint markers should now be correctly positioned when zooming.
588 - Fixed: The toolbar button icon should now look correctly on Retina screens.
589 - Added: You may now disable counts by using toggling the [`counts_enabled`]
590 pref.
591 - Updated locale: de. Thanks to @just-barcodes!
592 - Improved: Several minor things.
593
594 [`counts_enabled`]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/8dae7aec9008595da31b939d5ae2d239849cf6dc/documentation/options.md#counts_enabled
595
596 ### 0.10.0 (2015-12-09)
597
598 - Added: The `zF` command, which lets you click browser elements.
599 - Improved: The scrolling commands can now scroll browser elements (in other
600 words, not only web page content), by first selecting the scollable element
601 using `zF`.
602 - Added: The `gr` command, which toggles [Reader View].
603 - Added: The `gX` command, which opens the Recently Closed Tabs menu at the
604 middle of the screen.
605 - Added: The keys you’ve typed so far of a command, as well the count, are now
606 shown in a [notification]. (You may disable this using the
607 [`notify_entered_keys`] pref.)
608 - Improved: When commands don’t do anything, they show a [notification] instead,
609 letting you know that you actually pressed the right keys. For example, if you
610 press `f` but there are no markable elements visible, a notification is shown
611 telling you so, instead of silently doing nothing.
612 - Improved: `<space>` now scrolls _about a line less_ than a full page, just
613 like Firefox does by default. `d` scroll about _half_ a line less (by
614 default), so that pressing `d` twice works like pressing `<space>` once. (See
615 the [`scroll.full_page_adjustment` and `scroll.half_page_adjustment`] prefs
616 for more information.)
617 - Improved: `gi` now only selects all text in its text input if you haven’t
618 focused a text input yet (allowing you to easily replace pre-filled text),
619 instead of _always_ doing so. Otherwise, it now puts the cursor where you left
620 off typing the last time.
621 - Fixed: The `f` commands now put the cursor where you left off typing the last
622 time when focusing a text input. Previously, they accidentally selected all
623 text in the text input (use `zf` for that behavior).
624 - Fixed: Yet a scrolling fix. VimFx’s scrolling commands should now “just work”
625 on even more sites.
626 - Fixed: AltGr should now work out of the box on Windows. (See the
627 [`ignore_ctrl_alt`] pref for more information.)
628 - Removed: The el-GR, hu and pl locales were sadly too out of date to be useful,
629 and nobody has shown interest in updating them, so they were removed.
630 - Updated locales: id, de and zh-CN. Thanks to Yoppy Halilintar, @just-barcodes
631 and @mozillazg!
632 - Fixed: Several tiny bugs.

639
640 ### 0.9.0 (2015-12-02)
641
642 - Fixed: Links with the `onclick` attribute can now be opened in new tabs again.
643 (Regression since 0.8.0.)
644 - Fixed: The text size in VimFx’s Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog is now
645 correctly resized.
646 - Added: The `gH` command. It opens the back/forward button context menu in the
647 middle of the window, allowing you to choose a history entry with the arrow
648 keys and `<enter>`.
649
650 ### 0.8.0 (2015-12-01)
651
652 - Fixed: VimFx now works properly in tabs moved to other windows.
653 - Fixed: An unreliable check for multi-process mode has been eliminated, fixing
654 various problems for some users.
655 - Fixed: VimFx’s toolbar button now changes color correctly when switching
656 between blacklisted and non-blacklisted tabs.
657 - Fixed: Dead keys now work out of the box on Windows.
658 - Improved: Links with the `onclick` attribute (abused as buttons) can no longer
659 get the same hint as another link.
660 - Added: The Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog (shown by pressing `?`) is now
661 searchable.
662 - Added: The `g/` command. It’s like `/` but searches links only.
663
664 - Added: [Marks].
665
666 - Use `ma` to mark the current scroll position and `` `a `` to return to it.
667 (You may substitute `a` with any key press.)
668 - Use ``` `` ``` to return to the position before the last `gg`, `G`, `0`,
669 `$`, `/`, `n`, `N` or `` ` ``. (You can change this mark using the
670 [`last_scroll_position_mark`] pref.)
671
672 - Added: Window commands.
673
674 - `w`: Open new window.
675 - `W`: Open new private window.
676 - `gw`: Move tab to new window.
677 - `gF`: Follow link in new window.
678
679 [Marks]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/47fc699ce8217ee90af4d12e81f102f2bea09d61/documentation/commands.md#marks-m-and-

681
682 ### 0.7.3 (2015-11-22)
683
684 - Fixed: Scrolling now works correctly in pages in quirks mode (lacking a
685 doctype), such as Hackernews.
686 - Improved: The largest scrollable element is now detected better in frames.
687 - Fixed: Hints mode now exits correctly when focusing a text input using `af`,
688 or `f` with a count.
689
690 ### 0.7.2 (2015-11-21)
691
692 - Fixed: The blinking text caret now always appears correctly when focusing text
693 inputs.
694
695 ### 0.7.1 (2015-11-21)
696
697 - Fixed: The scrolling commands should now “just work” when using non-default
698 zoom or DPI settings, most notably on Google Groups.
699
700 ### 0.7.0 (2015-11-19)
701
702 - Changed: Instead of using system notifications, which turned out to be a bit
703 too intrusive, [notifications] are now similar to the “URL popup” (shown when
704 hovering or focusing links) but are placed on the opposite side,.
705 - Changed: The “Focus next element” and “Focus previous element” commands have
706 been removed. The reason they existed was to let `<tab>` and `<s-tab>` only
707 cycle between text inputs (as opposed to _all_ focusable elements) after
708 you’ve pressed `gi`. Now, `<tab>` and `<s-tab>` are handled specially instead,
709 and _only_ after pressing `gi`. The reason for this change is that the now
710 removed commands were too intrusive, breaking user habits. One of VimFx’s main
711 goal is _not_ to do that. (You can turn the special handling of `<tab>` and
712 `<s-tab>` off using the the new [`focus_previous_key` and `focus_next_key`]
713 prefs.)
714 - Fixed: The scrolling commands should now “just work” in a lot more situations,
715 most notably on Gmail and Google Groups. More scrollable elements are also
716 recognized by the `f` and `zf` commands.
717 - Improved: The right border of hint markers for scrollable elements is now
718 styled to remind of a scroll bar, making them easier to recognize among hints
719 for links.
720 - Improved/Changed: `J` and `gJ` now allow a count on the first tab.
721 Consequently, `K` and `gK` now allow a count on the _last_ tab.
722 - Changed: `gJ` and `gK` can no longer be used to pin or unpin tabs. They now
723 only wrap around tabs of the same pinned state. Use `gp` to toggle between
724 pinned and non-pinned.
725 - Fixed: Many elements that got a hint before VimFx 0.6.0 now do again.
726 - Improved: Comment fields on Facebook can now be focused using `f` and blurred
727 using `<escape>`.
728 - Improved: VimFx’s toolbar button is no greyed out when you focus a text input.
729 This is to show that your key presses will be passed into the text input
730 rather than activating VimFx commands.
731 - Added: [`g0`, `g^` and `g$` now accept counts][tab-index-counts], allowing you
732 to go to tab number _count._
733 - Improved: `gi` now finds text inputs inside frames.
734 - Fixed: “gi mode” is now exited properly when blurring a text input.
735 - Fixed: `<select>` elements are no longer considered to be text inputs when
736 using `<tab>` and `<s-tab>` in “gi mode.”
737 - Fixed: Using `<force>` or `<late>` in a shortcut no longer applies to _every_
738 shortcut for the command, but only that shortcut.
739 - Fixed: The order of the Previous/Next page patterns is now respected. This
740 caused the wrong link to be picked by the `[` and `]` commands on some pages.

745
746 ### 0.6.2 (2015-11-11)
747
748 - Improved: If the entire page isn’t scrollable, the largest scrollable element
749 is scrolled instead.
750 - Fixed: VimFx’s keyboard shortcuts now works on slowly loading pages.
751 - Fixed: Numbers may now be used as shortcut keys (overriding counts).
752 - Fixed: The toolbar button’s icon is now correctly sized in high DPI.
753 - Fixed: Hint markers are now correctly positioned when zooming using the “Zoom
754 text only” option.
755 - Fixed: The `P` command now works with the InstantFox add-on.
756
757 ### 0.6.1 (2015-11-10)
758
759 - Fixed: If you customized the “esc” command before VimFx 0.6.0 it should now
760 work as expected.
761 - Fixed: `<tab>` now works as expected in the location bar and in the dev tools.
762 - Fixed: Light-weight themes can no longer make VimFx’s Keyboard Shortcuts help
763 dialog and hint markers unreadable.
764 - Added: The [notifications\_enabled] option.
765
766 [notifications\_enabled]: https://github.com/akhodakivskiy/VimFx/blob/56c4b7c514ea8b58d2cdcecf3d2654648c48ca31/documentation/options.md#notifications_enabled
767
768 ### 0.6.0 (2015-11-09)
769
770 ##### Most important (breaking) changes
771
772 - VimFx now works properly with **any keyboard layout.** Users of **multiple
773 layouts** should enable the **[ignore keyboard layout] option.** #249 #259
774
775 - Features related to disabling VimFx, and to the [toolbar button]:
776
777 - **Insert Mode** has been renamed to **_Ignore_ mode.**
778 - **[Blacklisted][blacklist] sites** now **enter Ignore mode automatically,**
779 instead of being specially handled.
780 - The feature to click the toolbar button (or press `<a-V>`) to **disable
781 VimFx** has been **removed.** Use **Ignore mode** (`i`) and the
782 **[blacklist] instead.**
783 - The **toolbar button** is now **red in Ignore mode** (which also means that
784 it is red on blacklisted sites) and green otherwise (never grey anymore).
785 - The toolbar button no longer offers to (un-)blacklist the current domain.
786 (Head into VimFx’s settings page in the Add-ons Manager and add
787 `*currentdomain.com*` to the [blacklist] option yourself instead.)
788
789 (See [commit 3552282] for more information.)
790
791 - **Some default shortcuts have changed,** mostly because they conflicted with
792 standard Firefox shortcuts: #308
793
794 - `<c-J>` → `gJ`
795
796 - `<c-K>` → `gK`
797
798 - `g^` and `gH` → `g0`
799
800 `g^` now selects the first _non pinned_ tab instead, while `g0`
801 selects the first tab regardless of whether it is pinned or not. #317
802
803 - `<c-e>` (alias for `j`) and `<c-y>` (alias for `k`) have been removed.
804
805 - `<c-f>` → `<space>` and `<c-b>` → `<s-space>`
806
807 - `vf` → `zf`
808
809 This frees up `v` for future shortcuts (instead making `z` a
810 “namespace” key, just like in Vim).
811
812 - To **exit Ignore mode:** `<escape>` → `<s-escape>`. This is because Ignore
813 mode has replaced the disable feature, as well as the special blacklist
814 state (see above). Sites are likely to use `<escape>` but not `<s-escape>`.
815 (In a way, this new role of Ignore mode also means that the old (many times
816 broken) shortcut to disable VimFx (`<a-V>`) has been replaced by `i`.) #64
817 \#375 #432
818
819 - VimFx’s Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog is now help only, and more accessible.
820 To **customize keyboard shortcuts,** go to VimFx’s settings page **in the
821 Add-ons Manager,** just like you would to customize other settings. Also,
822 **commas** between every key are **no longer needed:** Type `gJ` instead of
823 `g,J`.
824
825 - For performance reasons, **Hint markers** are now placed vertically **centered
826 instead of at the top** of the element. Don’t be surprised if you see the same
827 hint repeated several times**—links that go to the same place now get the same
828 hint.** The “Smart hints” option has been removed—hints are _always_ smart
829 now, and a lot smarter than before. Finally, hints now also work in the new
830 tab page, the Add-ons Manager and the preferences page. If you want to, you
831 can read more about [the `f` commands]. \#51 #60 #176 #320 #325 #468 #471 #475
832
833 - The **`F`** command now _always_ opens tabs in new **background** tabs, while
834 **`gf`** has been added to open tabs in new **foreground** tabs. #227 #464
835
836 - **Autofocus prevention** is now **off by default.** One of VimFx’s core
837 philosophies is to be nice to your browser habits. Some find autofocus
838 prevention too big a change. Turn it on again if you like it! By the way,
839 autofocus prevention now works much more reliably and should not cause issues
840 with other extensions. #497 #541
841
842 - The **“Scroll step”** option has been **removed**. The scrolling commands that
843 used it now **work like the arrow keys instead,** and are customized just like
844 them. See [scrolling prefs] for more information.
845
846 - Speaking of scrolling, **which elements scrolls** when you use VimFx’s
847 scrolling commands **has changed.** See [scrolling commands] for more
848 information.
849
850 ##### New features
851
852 - New commands:
853
854 - `gp` pins or unpins the current tab. (Also see `g^` and `g0` mentioned
855 above.) #121
856 - `yt` duplicates the current tab. #121
857 - `0` and `^` scroll to the far left, and `$` scrolls to the far right.
858 - [`gi`] has finally been implemented. #47
859 - [Ignore mode `<s-f1>`] let you run a Normal mode command without exiting
860 Ignore mode.
861
862 - In Hints mode you can now hold ctrl and alt to change behavior of the matched
863 marker. Hold shift to temporarily make the hints see-through. See [the `f`
864 commands] for more information. #220 #421 #484
865
866 - Some commands now accept [counts]. #374
867
868 - It is now possible to create shortcuts that work inside text inputs. See the
869 [`<force>`] key for more information. #258
870
871 - It is now possible to create shortcuts that the page can override. See the
872 [`<late>`] key for more information.
873
874 - A number of [advanced options] have been added. Rather than listing everything
875 regarding them here, follow that link if you’re interested. #452 #489
876
877 - You may now, if you want to, configure VimFx through a [config file], using
878 the new [public API]. Customizing VimFx through a config file also gives extra
879 abilities, such as [site-specific options][option-overrides] and [disabling
880 certain commands on certain sites][key-overrides]. It also allows to add
881 [custom commands] \(and other extensions to extend VimFx). #158 #235 #255 #261
882 \#300 #408 #445 #490 #515
883
884 - It is now easier to customize VimFx through custom [styling]. An example is
885 changing the way hint markers look. #220 #233 #424 #432 #465
886
887 - VimFx now has [documentation] and a [wiki].
888
889 - A few new locales were added:
890
891 - fr. Thanks to Mickaël RAYBAUD-ROIG (@m-r-r)!
892 - pt-BR. Thanks to Átila Camurça Alves (@atilacamurca)!
893 - sv-SE. Thanks to Andreas Lindhé (@lindhe)!
894
895 ##### Improvements
896
897 - VimFx is now multi-process/Electrolysis/e10s compatible! This means that you
898 can run VimFx on a version of Firefox with multi-process enabled without
899 issues, and that we’re future proof for the day when Firefox becomes
900 multi-process by default. Best of all, it also made VimFx more reliable in
901 non-multi-process (“regular”) Firefox. #378
902
903 - The `[` and `]` commands are now smarter, recognizing more links to the
904 previous/next page correctly. You may read more about [previous/next page
905 patterns]. #396
906
907 - The `n` and `N` commands now notify you when they wrap around the page, or the
908 phrase you searched for could not be found. #398
909
910 - _All_ shortcuts in _all modes_ can now be customized. For example, this allows
911 you to disable VimFx’s Vim-style `<enter>` behavior in the find bar. #222 #390
912 \#421
913
914 - The `p` and `P` commands are now smarter regarding whether to treat the
915 clipboard contents as a URL or a search, by working exactly like pasting in
916 the location bar. They also now read the selection clipboard, if available.
917 \#353 #382
918
919 - VimFx’s toolbar button is now properly implemented. #303 #349 #383
920
921 - Most locales were updated. Thanks to our awesome [translators]!
922
923 ##### Minor bug fixes
924
925 - VimFx now works correctly in tabs dragged to other windows. #57
926 - The `p` command is no longer broken. #494
927 - Non-ASCII shortcut keys now work properly. #433
928 - The Keyboard Shortcuts help dialog can no longer be covered by page elements.
929 \#477
930 - Hint markers can no longer be covered by page elements.
931 - VimFx no longer causes scripts on icloud.com to get stuck in an infinite loop.

957
958 ### 0.5.17 (2015-01-23)
959
960 - Fixed: The hints generation no longer crashes on some pages (regression since
961 version 0.5.15).
962
963 ### 0.5.16 (2015-01-22)
964
965 - Fixed: The toolbar button no longer throws errors. (This fix should have been
966 in 0.5.15 but was forgotten. Luckily an AMO reviewer found it.)
967
968 ### 0.5.15 (2015-01-21)
969
970 - Improved: This version is now forwards-compatible with the upcoming version
971 0.6.0. Downgrading from 0.6.0 to 0.5.14 or older might cause VimFx to crash,
972 but downgrading from 0.6.0 to 0.5.15 is safe.
973 - Fixed: Non-hintchars key presses in hints mode are now suppressed. They used
974 to be passed along to the browser, which could confusingly activate site
975 commands.
976 - Fixed: The 'f' command now always opens links in the same tab. Links used to
977 be able to force a new tab or window.
978 - Fixed: Pressing 'Esc' in the location bar now restores the URL, as is the
979 default behaviour of Firefox. You may now also close Firefox dialogs using
980 'Esc'.
981 - Improved: Updated the de locale. Thanks to Alexander Haeussler!
982 - Improved: Updated the pl locale. Thanks to morethanoneanimal!
983
984 ### 0.5.14 (2014-08-16)
985
986 - Fixed: Locales should now work properly.
987 - Improved: Updated the zh-CN locale (@mozillazg).
988 - Improved: Updated the de locale (@Kambfhase).
989 - Added: Japanese locale (@pluser).
990 - Fixed: If you switched to another tab or window while an `<input>` element
991 was focused and then switched back, the `<input>` element got blurred, while
992 it should have stayed focused. This caused the auto-type feature of KeePassX
993 to break.
994
995 ### 0.5.13 (2014-08-02)
996
997 - Fixed: The vote button on StackExchange sites are now markable again.
998 - Improved: Detection of previous/next links. Should work better on gmail now.
999 - Fixed: It is now possible to use Enter/Return in keyboard shortcuts.
1000 - Improved: The n/N commands (etc.) now work even if you didn’t open the finbar
1001 using the VimFx command (such as the default key binding ctrl+f, or by
1002 clicking a menu item).
1003 - Improved: It is now possible to blur text inputs without sending Esc to the
1004 page, which could cause dialogs etc. to annoyingly close.
1005 - Improved: Updated the el-GR locale (@sirodoht).
1006 - Fixed: Autofocus prevention sometimes made text inputs impossible to focus
1007 until you reloaded the page.
1008 - Improved: Autofocus prevention now works on more sites than before.
1009 - Improved: Autofocus prevention now prevents _all_ automatic focusing (not
1010 just when the page loads). This makes devdocs.io much easier to use.
1011 - Added: When viewing images directly and the image has been resized to fit the
1012 screen the image is now markable, allowing you to toggle zoom on it using the
1013 keyboard.
1014 - Fixed: It is no longer possible to add conflicting shortcuts (such as adding
1015 'a' when 'af' and 'as' are already present).
1016
1017 ### 0.5.12 (2014-06-01)
1018
1019 - Fixed: Autofocus prevention got stuck sometimes, making it impossible to
1020 focus inputs.
1021
1022 ### 0.5.11 (2014-06-01)
1023
1024 - Fixed: The focus search bar command was broken.
1025 - Fixed: Autofocus prevention was broken.
1026 - Fixed: The top bar on YouTube could not be accessed by VimFx.
1027 - Fixed: You can no longer add blank hotkeys.
1028 - Improved: Tab Groups are supported.
1029 - Improved: Matching of previous/next links should be more reliable.
1030 - Improved: A few minor things.
1031
1032 ### 0.5.10 (2014-05-07)
1033
1034 - Fixed yet another bug related to the default preferences
1035
1036 ### 0.5.9 (2014-05-04)
1037
1038 - Fixed a bug with default preferences not being set
1039 - Fixed gg and G to be faster
1040
1041 ### 0.5.8 (2014-04-18)
1042
1043 - AMO Preliminary Review bug fix (sorry for such long delay)
1044
1045 ### 0.5.7 (2014-03-03)
1046
1047 - Bug fix
1048
1049 ### 0.5.6 (2014-02-26)
1050
1051 - Updated some translations
1052 - Updated pagination patterns and logic
1053
1054 ### 0.5.5 (2014-01-03)
1055
1056 - Hotfix release to address a bug that has been introduced in 0.5.4
1057
1058 ### 0.5.4 (2014-01-03)
1059
1060 - Fix for popup passthrough mode stucking
1061 - Make toolbar button click depend on current mode

1067 patterns
1068 - Use Firefox 24+ native console API
1069 - Update zh-CN localization
1070
1071 ### 0.5.3 (2013-10-16)
1072
1073 - Lots of refactoring
1074 - Insert mode (`i` command)
1075 - Follow multiple links with `af` command
1076 - Hint marker rotation with `space` while in hints mode
1077
1078 ### 0.5.1 (2013-08-21)
1079

1086 - Added commands to stop loading current page and all pages: `s` and `as`
1087 - Invisible elements will not get hint markers

1089 - Simple shortcut customization with UI in Help dialog
1090 - Use Huffman coding algorithm for hint markers generation which results in
1091 shorter links

1095 - Find disabled on non HTML documents
1096 - Find string is now global for all windows.
1097 - Fixed logic of locale discovery. Now we rely on general.useragent.locale
1098 Firefox preference for current locale
1099

1133 - Added `gh` command that will navigate to the home page.
1134 - Added `o` command to focus location bar.
1135 - `p` and `P` will parse the contents of the clipboard. If the string in the
