Ledge 1.0.0

Ledge 1.0.0

The big 1.0 — three new modules, on-device OCR, and signed auto-updates.

What's new

Clipboard

A manual stash for text, images, and files — privacy-first, no background watching.

• Three capture paths: press ⌃⌥V, click Capture in the panel, or drag any text / image / file onto the notch
• Click any entry → copies back to the system clipboard, panel collapses, ⌘V pastes immediately
• Rich text + HTML preserved when present (so you can stash a styled paragraph and paste it back with formatting)
• On-device OCR via Vision on every stashed image — recognized text becomes searchable, and right-click → "Copy text from image" pulls it out
• Pin entries, edit them as snippets, Quick Look any row with space
• Full keyboard navigation: ↑↓ select · ⏎ copy + collapse · ⌫ remove · ⌘F search · ⌘1–9 copy Nth · ⎋ clear search
• Concealed-clipboard hints from password managers (1Password, Bitwarden, Keychain Access) are honored — secrets get skipped automatically

Notes

A daily notepad that takes care of itself.

• Today's note is always editable and autosaves
• At midnight (or on first launch the next day), today slides into a scrollable archive
• Archive entries render markdown — headers, bullets, bold, code, links — when expanded
• Type plainly during the day, get formatted output when you look back

Stopwatch

A new mode in the Timer module.

• Segmented toggle at the top of the Timer panel (your choice persists across launches)
• Counts up with drift-free pause / resume
• MM:SS under an hour, H:MM:SS over

Auto-updates

From this release on, future versions install themselves with a clean prompt — no more manual DMG re-downloads.

• Updates are signed with an EdDSA key; the app refuses anything unsigned
• Daily background check, or trigger manually in Settings → General → Updates → Check Now…
• Privacy: the only call is to the appcast on satsdisco.github.io/ledge — no telemetry, no analytics

Polish

• Timer / stopwatch layout vertically balanced in the panel
• File Shelf expanded view layout matches other modules
• Settings → Shortcuts now lists every Clipboard-panel keystroke plus tips for stashing, searching, snippet editing, and the concealed-clipboard skip
• Panel keyboard focus is opt-in per module — Clipboard and Notes can take focus on click; ambient modules (Bitcoin, Clocks) stay hands-off

Requires

• macOS 14 Sonoma or later
• Apple silicon or Intel (universal binary)
• A Mac with a notch — or any Mac, with the synthetic-notch option in Settings → Advanced
