Deprecated

Text styling has been overhauled in this update, and as a result the
selection-padding option has been replaced with
selection-background-padding, to avoid ambiguity and match the other
available options. selection-padding is therefore deprecated, and will be
removed in a future version of tofi, so please update your configs.

Added

  • Added placeholder-text option.

  • Overhaul text styling. Each piece of text in tofi is now styleable in a
    similar way, with foreground and background colours. The pieces of text
    that can be individually styled are:

    • prompt
    • placeholder
    • input
    • default-result
    • alternate-result
    • selection

    Each of these pieces of text now has the following options available:

    • <text>-color
    • <text>-background
    • <text>-background-padding
    • <text>-background-corner-radius

    See man 5 tofi or the example config file for more information. For an
    example theme using these new options, see themes/soy-milk.

  • Added ability to paste from the clipboard with ctrl-v.

  • Added history-file option. This both allows changing the history file
    location, and when combined with history=true (the default), enables
    history sorting in plain tofi mode.

  • Added font-features option, allowing the specification of OpenType font
    features in a similar way to CSS font-feature-settings.

  • Added font-variations option, allowing customisation of variable fonts in a
    similar way to CSS font-variation-settings.

  • Added clip-to-padding option, to allow drawing text outside the specified
    padding.

Changed

  • Due to the number of available options, the usage info now only contains a
    short list of the most important ones and directs the user to man 5 tofi.
  • If -h was passed, print usage info to stdout rather than stderr.
  • Improved performance of most text handling operations.
  • Improved performance of selection-background and others, so drawing
    backgrounds is no longer an expensive operation.

Fixed

  • Invalid values in config options no longer set the option to a default value.
  • Fix various potential errors due to malformed config files.
  • Fixed a compilation error on FreeBSD (from @jbeich).
  • Fixed a compilation error with musl libc (from @akdjka).
