New keyboard shortcuts and UI fixes:

  • There are new key bindings for focusing various parts of Porcupine without clicking them: Alt+Shift+D for directory tree, Alt+Shift+F for the file being edited, and Alt+Shift+C for command output. Thank you lawson89 for adding the new key bindings.
  • The directory tree now opens the selected file when pressing the Enter key. Previously this worked only for directories, and to open a file, you needed to press the right arrow key or double-click. Thank you lawson89.
  • The buttons related to running commands now have tooltips that explain what they do. You no longer need to guess based on the images. Thank you lawson89.

Filetype-specific fixes and improvements:

  • In Python files, comments placed on the same line with a decorator are now syntax highlighted as comments.
  • In Rust files, function names and a few more keywords are now highlighted correctly.
  • There are new default commands for Rust. For example, pressing F5 in a Rust file does cargo run by default. As with any filetype, you can press Shift+F5 (or Shift+F6, Shift+F7, Shift+F8) to run any command you want.
  • Porcupine now supports .pyx files slightly better than before. Thank you lawson89.

Other improvements:

  • On Windows, the Porcupine installer now uninstalls and reinstalls faster than before, because it does not display the name of every file it deletes.
  • When restarted, Porcupine now remembers whether or not the window was maximized. Previously it would only remember the location and size of the window, so restarting a maximized Porcupine would result in a window that is big but not in a maximized state. Thank you lawson89 for fixing this.
  • The full-screen mode (F11 or Full Screen in the View menu) now works better with window managers that have their own full-screening feature. Thank you Tuomas for testing this.
  • The Filetypes menu now shows which filetype is currently selected. Thank you lawson89.
  • The plugin manager is no longer a plugin, so it is not possible to use the plugin manager to disable the plugin manager. Thank you aloner-pro for fixing this.
  • In the Run menu, there is a new built-in Python prompt that runs within the Porcupine process. It is meant to be used for developing and debugging Porcupine. For example, get_tab_manager().tabs()[0].textwidget['bg'] = 'red' sets the color of the first open tab.
