Hello everybody,
this is actually the first time we have a Vimprobable2-only release.
The reason being that there has been no need for bugfixes which would
have been backported to the Vimprobable1 branch. I see this as a sign
of stability.
Anyway, this release merges the smaller and larger feature additions
posted on this mailing list since the last release:
- Shortcuts function (Hannes Schueller)
This is basically an extension of the search engine feature.
Shortcuts can have one or zero string placeholders, making it
possible to use these definitions as a sort of extension of the
limited quickmark slots. The definition in the rc file goes just like
the search engines before. Mind that the keyword "searchengine" in
the rc file will continue to work for now, but its use is deprecated
in favour of using "shortcut" (as per the man page)!
- Download path, status bar font, URL box font and completion font are
all configurable via :set (Matto Fransen)
- Support for different cookie policies: accept all cookies (default),
accept no third party cookies or accept no cookies. This is
configured using the "cookies" setting:
:set cookies=(all|no third party|none)
Mind that this will not affect cross domain requests! The policy is
always evaluated with respect to the atomic HTTP request. I.e. if
website example.org embeds contents from example.com in an iframe or
in an image tag, cookies from the latter will still be accepted in
the "no third party" setting if they are delivered with the contents
in the iframe/image tag. No correlation between hierarchical requests
like this is performed.
Enjoy the new release and as usual, report any problems you might
encounter right here!
Hannes
