v1.2.0-beta.8 — Recent Locations menu, rebuilt editor typing mode

Prerelease for testing on device.

Recent Locations

The recent folders no longer sit as a dozen loose entries at the bottom of the Y menu. They are now a single Recent Locations entry, right under Split view in both menus, that opens the history on its own.

It uses Steam's submenu component when it can be found, and falls back to opening a second context menu when it cannot — so a failed lookup can't take the whole menu down.

The editor types like an editor now

Typing was one line at a time: the file vanished, a single line was typed blind, and applying it was the only way back. Every line was another round trip.

Typing mode now keeps the file on screen — the lines either side of the one being edited, with a cursor drawn in place — and the keyboard stays put underneath while you move between lines.

• The cursor moves. Fix text anywhere in a line, not just at its end, with ◀ ▶ or with L1/R1, which do nothing else while the editor is open.
• ▲ / ▼ commit the current line and carry straight on typing the one above or below, so a run of edits is one session.
• ↵ splits the line at the cursor; backspace at column 1 joins the line onto the one above.
• B applies the line instead of throwing it away. Nothing typed is lost, and the file on disk is untouched until Save.
• Insert line, delete line, clear and cancel sit under the keyboard, and the header shows line and column.
