v0.3.0
New
- Messages you send show up at once. While an account is offline they wait,
greyed out with a clock, and go out as soon as it is back (also after
restarting braids). A message the messenger refuses is marked
"Not sent", with "Send again" and "Delete". (#10) - braids reconnects right after the computer wakes up or the network comes
back, instead of waiting for the connection to time out. Each account in
the sidebar shows its state with a dot (green online, amber connecting or
fetching, grey offline, red error), and its tooltip says when it was
last up to date. (#13) - Keyboard: Alt+J/K (and the arrow keys) move a highlight through the chat
list and the search results without opening anything. Enter opens the
highlighted chat and puts the cursor in the message box. New shortcut
"Back to chat list" (Alt+H or Alt+←). In a narrow window the list and
chat shortcuts switch back to the list. A click still opens a chat
directly. (#12) - An "Unread" folder (Ctrl+U) with the unread chats.
- An unread chat opens at the "New messages" line, a read one at the
newest message. - Click a profile picture in the chat info to see it full size. In groups,
a click on someone's picture or name (or on a member in the chat info)
offers "View profile picture" and "Message privately". - Ctrl+N with no unread chat left closes the open chat. (#11)
Fixed
- Videos (MP4 and others), GIF videos and video stickers play in the app.
Most MP4 videos also need GStreamer's libav plugin; the video viewer
names the package to install, and so does the install script. - Opening a chat with Enter from the search no longer puts an empty line
in the message box. - Ctrl+N clears the search and goes through all chats.
- Closing the search in a chat (Esc or ×) puts the cursor back in the
message box.
