From meebey at meebey.net Fri Jan 2 21:43:25 2009 From: meebey at meebey.net (Mirco Bauer) Date: Sat, 3 Jan 2009 03:43:25 +0100 Subject: [Mono-announce-list] ANNOUNCE: Smuxi 0.6.3 Message-ID: <20090103034325.18b73ea9@redbull.qnetp.net> Just in time, with the beginning of 2009 we are proud to announce the release of Smuxi 0.6.3! This release is the 3rd bugfix release of the 0.6 series but also contains as usual new features for your joy of upgrading to the new version. Smuxi is available for download from: http://www.smuxi.org/page/Download d383fd0d1f1ff3028e39b7306926ed06 smuxi-0.6.3.tar.gz 68389fa654ae1ff6eefcfde5d366f422 smuxi-0.6.3-bin.tar.gz bb97a96aa2559b403b15c4d35cd1c464 smuxi-0.6.3-bin-win32.zip What is it? =========== Smuxi is an irssi-inspired, flexible, user-friendly and cross-platform IRC client for advanced users, targeting the GNOME desktop. The special feature of Smuxi is that it can be used like the typical irssi+screen combo. The IRC session can run on a server (using `smuxi-server') and a frontend (like `smuxi-frontend-gnome') then can connect to that. The frontend can then be detached and re-attached at some later point without losing any IRC connections or messages. The project website can be found at: http://www.smuxi.org/ What's New? =========== New features: * Full tray icon support. (trac#55 and trac#137) * Configurable line wrapping. (trac#5) * Events such as join/part/quit now use a different color in the tab label. (trac#66) * When connecting to a smuxi-server previous highlights will not be highlighted again. (trac#97) * Messages can now be sent to all chats by using the /amsg, /anotice and /ame commands. (trac#109) * The find group chats feature now indicates an active search by using a busy mouse cursor symbol. (trac#115) * Passwords are now hidden by default but can be shown by using a "show password" button. (trac#116) * Nicknames can now be listed by using the /names command. (trac#120) Bugfixes: * Find group chat dialog will no longer freeze the interface when the IRC server (e.g. OFTC) uses non-RFC compliant reply codes. (trac#104) * /notice #somechannel will no longer crash. (trac#108) * A private notice will no longer trigger a highlight. (trac#45) * URLs can now be clicked while a nickname is selected on the userlist. (trac#112) * Server no longer crashes when a frontend doesn't cleanly disconnect. (trac#117) * Quitting smuxi using the window close button (X) will now store the last used window size and position. (trac#121) * Validation now requires a nickname be set in the preferences. (trac#123) * URL matching is now case-insensitive. (trac#131) * /quit command will no longer reconnect. (trac#139) * Username and password are now correctly used in the quick connect dialog. (trac#141) * When disconnecting from a server, all chats will now be closed.
