We are happy to announce Nyxt 2.2.3.
This release features dramatically improved performance (both in terms of interface responsiveness and in network queries processing) as well as fixing major stability issues with WebKitGTK 2.34.
Change log:
2.2.3
- Speed up most network queries. This may also prevent some hangs that used to
happen when loading resource-intensive pages.
- Speed up
set-url and friends. (Thanks to @shamazmazum!)
The
user input suggestion should now be instantaneously updated in the suggestion
list. Search engine completions no longer hold back the listing of other
suggestions.
- Nyxt now prompts for confirmation before deleting a buffer that has edited
contents.
- New common text editing bindings (select-all, undo, redo, cut, etc.).
- Display source code in
describe-function whenever possible.
- Allow for arbitrary HTML in the prompt buffer (both attributes and the
prompt).
- Permission requests are now handled (such geolocalization access).
- Intelligent Tracking Prevention is no longer systematically enabled. This
should fix some website incompatibilities. ITP can be selectively enabled with
reduce-tracking-mode .
reduce-tracking-mode has a new options,
preferred-user-agent which is set to a generic value by default.
- The Lisp REPL now highlights the input, displays the input package and
displays the current package at the prompt.
- New
m l VI binding to list-bookmarks .
Bug fixes
- Fix crash and hangs with WebKitGTK 2.34.
Warning: Sandboxing is no
longer enforced.
- Fix hangs in some cases when
blocker-mode hostlists were
out-of-date.
- Work around load failures when going backward or forward in history.
- Catch more errors in search completion.
