v0.8.0
b12c984

Added

  • New :repeat-command command (mapped to .) to repeat the last command.
    Note that two former default bundings conflict with that binding, unbinding
    them via :unbind .i and :unbind .o is recommended.
  • New qute:bookmarks page which displays all bookmarks and quickmarks.
  • New :prompt-open-download (bound to Ctrl-X) which can be used to open a
    download directly when getting the filename prompt.
  • New {host} replacement for tab- and window titles which evaluates
    to the current host.
  • New default binding ;t for :hint input.
  • New variables $QUTE_CONFIG_DIR, $QUTE_DATA_DIR and
    $QUTE_DOWNLOAD_DIR available for userscripts.
  • New option ui -> status-position to configure the position of the
    status bar (top/bottom).
  • New --pdf <filename> argument for :print which can be used to generate a
    PDF without a dialog.

Changed

  • :scroll-perc now prefers a count over the argument given to it, which means
    gg can be used with a count.
  • Aliases can now use ;; to have an alias which executed multiple commands.
  • :edit-url now does nothing if the URL isn't changed in the spawned editor.
  • :bookmark-add can now be passed a URL and title to add that as a bookmark
    rather than the current page.
  • New taskadd userscript to add a taskwarrior task annotated with the
    current URL.
  • :bookmark-del and :quickmark-del now delete the current page's URL if none
    is given.

Fixed

  • Compatibility with PyQt 5.7
  • Fixed some configuration values being lost when a config option gets removed
    from qutebrowser's code.
  • Fix crash when downloading with a full disk
  • Using :jump-mark (e.g. '') when the current URL is invalid doesn't crash
    anymore.

Removed

  • The ability to display status messages from webpages, as well as the related
    ui -> display-statusbar-messages setting.
  • The general -> wrap-search setting as searches now always wrap.
    According to a quick straw poll and prior crash logs, almost nobody is using
    wrap-search = false, and turning off wrapping is not possible with
    QtWebEngine.
  • :edit-url now doesn't accept a count anymore as its behavior was confusing
    and it doesn't make much sense to add a count.
