[Edbrowse-dev] edbrowse 3.6.3 is here!

[Chris Brannon]

Edbrowse 3.6.3 was tagged and released several days ago.
The direct download link is here:
https://github.com/CMB/edbrowse/archive/v3.6.3.zip
Here's a summary of the changes:

3.6.3:
Maintain a cache of http files.
Provides faster access to websites that are visited often.
Cache directory and size can be set in the config file, but the defaults are reasonable.

Use a substring of the url to determine a mime type, not just the suffix.
This is primarily for youtube videos, which can play as a stream, but have no obvious protocol or suffix to key on.
urlmatch = youtube.com/watch?|youtube.com/embed/
Currently a substring, may become a regexp later.

g? prints the url for the link instead of going to it. You can look before you leap.
Also g2? g$? etc.

i* on a textarea <buffer 7> goes to that editing session, in this case equivalent to e7.
This is convenient for scripting, since you don't know ahead of time which buffer will be allocated for this purpose.

The M (move) command does not require a destination session; edbrowse finds an empty session for you.

Represent multiple frames in one edbrowse window. Each has its own javascript world.
At this point the worlds do not interact.
You can expand and contract frames by the exp and ctr commands.
