• SyncTERM v1.2 rc2 released!

    From Deuce@VERT to All on Saturday, October 12, 2024 22:03:16
    Over four years since the last stable release, SyncTERM v1.2 is nearing completion.

    This is the second release candidate for SyncTERM v1.2. If there are no bugs, reported in the next week or two, this will become the official SyncTERM release (for the next four years perhaps).

    To that end, if you use SyncTERM, please try the rc2 release, and report any bugs you find. If you're not sure if something is a bug, open a support ticket and ask.

    Changes since rc1:
    Start UIFC in insert mode, and use block cursor for overwrite mode
    Fix issue when dragging a GDI window between different zoom levels
    Fix status bar display when RIP changes number of lines on screen
    Fix some use-after-free bugs in RIP
    Fix reversed mouse wheel in GDI mode
    Have the X11 IC focus follow window focus
    Fix WM_SETCURSOR handling to allow grabbing resize points in GDI
    Added "Build Options" menu item
    Fix focus-follows-mouse behaviour in herbstluftwm
    Fix SAUCE binary capture date
    Fix saving non-integer scaling in GDI mode
    Fix static 20k memory leak
    Fix NetBSD native curses requiring keypress to exit
    Fix CMake-based build system
    Allow drag resize on macOS to support arbitrary sizes
    Fix AltGr handing in GDI mode

    Bugs and Support tickets (and feature requests) are tracked on the SourceForge page at http://sf.net/p/syncterm/ if you create a SourceForge account, you can be notified when I reply/fix bugs, and it really helps in case I need to ask follow-up questions, so please consider making that account and logging in before opening a ticket. That said, I would rather have bug reports as anonymous than not know about issues.
