Copperlight 0.12
New
- Settings for everything. Copperlight bends to you now:
- Settings › Features turns any feature off, from the calculator to Homebrew installs. Off means off: no rows,
no commands, nothing in the background, nothing sent, no permission asked for. - Settings › Launcher sets what the empty launcher shows (the next meeting or the whole day, what's running,
reminders that are due, the apps you open around this time), what it learns from you, with a Forget button for
each, and whether answers take their own shape or stay plain rows. - Settings › Keywords gives any keyword words of your own, beside the built-in ones:
tfortranslate,
wforweather, even;for:(;left,;quit). - Settings › General › Look trades copper for your Mac's accent color, or any color you pick.
Every setting is a line in config.toml too.
- Settings › Features turns any feature off, from the calculator to Homebrew installs. Off means off: no rows,
- Your week.
weekshows the whole week across the card, a column a day, each day's events with their times,
today's date in your accent.next weekshows the one after. Enter opens Calendar.
Smoother
- It moves like it should. The launcher springs open, its card comes out of the field and glides to its rows and
answers, and the selection glides from row to row. The rows themselves change at once, so typing never waits. With
Reduce Motion on (System Settings › Accessibility › Display), it changes in place and only fades in. - The weather and a stock show their card at once, with the place or the ticker, and fill it in when the answer
comes, instead of nothing until then.
Faster
- A keystroke's rows show within a frame: 2 to 11 ms, down from 50 to 65. They no longer wait for file search,
whose rows join at the bottom when they come. - The first ⌥ Space after launch is as quick as the rest.
- Typos forgiven. From 4 letters, a letter wrong, extra or two swapped still finds it:
slcakfinds Slack,
calenderCalendar,xcdoeXcode. A slip always ranks under a real match. - Lighter at rest. The clipboard is looked at every 2 seconds instead of twice a second once you've been away
from the keyboard and mouse for a minute, so your Mac sleeps more.
Fixed
- Settings could open with its panes pushed out of sight and a "This change can't be saved" notice at the top,
since 0.11: the Weather city field, empty, was taken for a change. An empty field is no value now, and a notice
never pushes the window's content away again.
Install
Download Copperlight.zip, unzip it and move Copperlight to Applications. The first time you open it, macOS asks
you to confirm it once. Updating: quit Copperlight and replace the app; your settings and permissions stay.
