This release marks the beginning of 1.x.x versioning. There are still some features I'd like to add in the future (e.g., localization, search plugins/workflows, ability to create custom themes) but I truly believe Reginald is now a pretty solid application.

The main newest feature is the ability to search through your computer's files. This is the one feature I've been wanting to implement before I released version v1.0.0 and it's now ready. You can press either your space bar or the apostrophe key while the input is empty to start searching.

The API for searching through files is apparently much faster and much more efficient on macOS than it is on Windows so I had to resort to file indexing. Don't worry though—by using a lot of memory optimizations, the RAM usage is still pretty low. By default, Reginald will ignore %APPDATA% and any file or folder whose name begins with a period.

Note

For developers: Reginald already ignores common gitignore directories/files found in C#, C++, Node.js, and Python projects but if you want to add more to the list, you always have the option to in the settings. In fact, I highly recommend you do.

Other than that, Reginald is ready to move on to the next stage. Hope you enjoy it!
