Note to packagers: starting from this release, Telescope doesn't depend on libevent anymore, and optionally depends on libgrapheme.
New features
- Initial client certificate support.
- Use libgrapheme for text reflowing: improves the word-wrapping for languages that don't use latin characters.
- New commands for quick navigation:
up
,root
andhome
bound to "g u", "g r" and "g h" respectively. - Added a
search
command to quickly consult a search engine, as well as thedefault-search-engine
option. - Added
load-url-use-heuristic
configuration option. - Added
default-protocol
configuration option. - Added
telescope-identity(1)
to create, delete and manage client certificates.
Improvements
- Implemented a new URI parser: this will allow in the future to support IRIs too.
- Allow configuration options to be booleans (
true
andfalse
) and change a few options where it made sense. The old settings with 0 and 1 will continue to work for some time. - Removed the dependency on libevent: Telescope now uses a custom built-in event loop.
- Rework the history management: the code is cleaner and requires less memory.
- Reduced the amount of memory needed for rendering the pages by roughly 50%.
- Landlock sandboxing is enabled again on Linux.
- Update
data/emoji.txt
to UNICODE 15.0.
