Releases: CustomFF/myfox

MyFox 1.4.0

Choose a tag to compare

@github-actions github-actions released this 30 Oct 09:45
  • A new profile can be made, imported and deleted with Firefox open, and a new one opened in a window of its own: myfox profile new --name NAME --open. Only switching the profile MyFox opens needs Firefox closed
  • myfox profile rename <ID> <NAME> renames a profile MyFox created, with Firefox open
  • Firefox lists only the profile MyFox opens in its profile manager (firefox -p): it rewrites that list while it runs and took back what MyFox had changed there. MyFox's other profiles live outside it, and myfox refresh with Firefox closed tidies what was left: duplicate entries, entries of deleted profiles
  • An imported copy no longer joins the original's Firefox profile group, where Firefox listed it as the original

@github-actions github-actions released this 30 Oct 09:16
  • The empty «default» profile a Firefox's first start leaves for versions before 67 (never opened, nothing in it) is no longer listed as a profile, in myfox profile list or about:myfox. --all shows it marked as not a profile

MyFox 1.3.3

@github-actions github-actions released this 29 Oct 17:19
  • Checking for updates and installing no longer use GitHub's API, which allows only 60 requests an hour per address: a few checks were enough for «rate limit exceeded». MyFox reads the release tags the way git does and downloads the files directly
  • The bookmarklet styling is versioned by when it was last built with changes; installs updated to this version get it once more with the new version

MyFox 1.3.2

@github-actions github-actions released this 29 Oct 16:44
  • about:myfox offers to give a Firefox account back on deleting a profile only when the import moved it there: myfox profile list --json tells it (restore_sync)

MyFox 1.3.1

@github-actions github-actions released this 29 Oct 15:17
  • myfox profile remove no longer waits for MyFox's Firefox to close: only the profile being removed must not be open. So about:myfox can delete a profile right from the page

MyFox 1.3.0

@github-actions github-actions released this 29 Oct 11:27
  • Tab completion for myfox in bash, zsh and fish: commands with their descriptions, flags and their values, profile IDs for myfox profile …
  • MyFox sets it up itself: for bash and fish where they look by themselves, for zsh in a folder of your own in $fpath (such as ~/.zsh/completions); without one, myfox completion zsh prints the script and myfox completion --help says how to add it. Uninstalling takes it away again
  • An install updated to this version gets it with the update

MyFox 1.2.4

Choose a tag to compare

@github-actions github-actions released this 28 Oct 13:50
  • myfox refresh --check tells what an update would bring, the tweaks, themes, bookmarklets and MyFox itself, without installing anything; --json answers in JSON
  • about:myfox shows the last check again on every visit, without going online: MyFox keeps it next to Firefox and takes out of it what an update has installed

MyFox 1.2.3

Choose a tag to compare

@github-actions github-actions released this 28 Oct 10:57
  • Another Firefox's profile can be imported from about:myfox, and a MyFox profile made the default there: MyFox closes its Firefox, does the work in a progress window and starts it again with the tabs it had
  • myfox profile import can move a profile (--move: the account goes along, the original leaves its old place and that Firefox's profile list), name the new one (--name) and open it once imported (--open)
  • An imported profile gets the MyFox theme that looks like its own, light or dark, switched on at its first start; the theme the original had would hide most of the tweaks
  • The sync choices on import say plainly what they do: «Leave in the original profile», «Move to the copy», «Copy (signed in in both)»

MyFox 1.2.2

@github-actions github-actions released this 27 Oct 10:53
  • Updates can be installed from about:myfox: myfox refresh --json updates without questions and answers in JSON what it updated and whether Firefox has to restart
  • The update dialog's «What's new» takes at most twelve lines, in the terminal too; the rest is behind «…and N more», which opens the full list in about:myfox

MyFox 1.2.1

@github-actions github-actions released this 27 Oct 08:53
  • The MyFox profiles can be seen and handled from about:myfox: myfox profile list --json tells when a profile was last opened and whether MyFox created it, myfox profile apply --json answers in JSON
  • The applications menu entry is described as Mozilla's own: «Fast and private browser», found by «browser», «internet» and «myfox»; a beta install is «Firefox Beta»
  • The entry's texts come from MyFox's translations, every language at once, and a Russian translation shows in every Russian locale
