[Edbrowse-dev] edbrowse 3.6.0 is here

[Chris Brannon]

Hello,
The edbrowse developers are proud to announce version 3.6.0!
This is a major release, so I'll quote verbatim from the changes file:

start quote
Edbrowse is an imap client. Scan and search through folders,
delete move or download emails, pull down attachments.

Use the tidy5 library to parse html and create a tree of nodes.
Render the text buffer based on this tree of nodes,
rather than the original html text.
Rerender the tree after it has been changed by javascript,
or via the rr command,
and report any differences, i.e. what has javascript changed?

Implement javascript timers and intervals.
These run asynchronously in the background.

Various ls commands in directory mode print the size,
mod time, and permissions of the file on the current line.
Set ls=lt to list the length and time of all the files in subsequent
directory scans. See documentation for more.

Port edbrowse to windows, with small modifications.

Set up cmake scripts so that cmake can be used to build edbrowse
on windows or on linux.
Traditional make is still available from the src directory.

Use cmake to build edbrowse under MacPorts, thus available under OSX.

Enhance the DOM sufficient to compile a jQuery object <= 1.9.1.
This is the first step along the path to full jQuery support.

Add an interactive javascript / DOM debugger.
Type jdb to enter this debugging mode, and period to exit.

Create a default .ebrc file if none is found.
This is just a template, the user is encouraged to personalize the file.
The default .ebrc file is in the user's language for supported languages.

Move all the language files, (ebrc files and message strings),
to per-language files in the lang directory.
perl programs map these into strings in the C source.

Support http only cookies.

end quote

I'd also like to publicly recognize two of our newest contributors,
Kevin Carhart and Geoff McLane, for their
great contributions to this release.
Thanks also goes out to Tyler Spivey for finding and reporting many
issues during development.

Happy Holidays,
-- Chris (on behalf of the edbrowse developers)
