[elinks-users] [ANNOUNCE] ELinks-0.10.3

[Jonas Fonseca]

Hello,

Another month has passed which means various bugfixes and improvements
have accumulated so here comes 0.10.3. Amongst the most important fixes
are opening of ``unclean'' bookmarks, handling of Refresh HTTP headers
entries for empty documents and 2 rendering fixes. Sorry, no exciting
new features to play with this time.

Following is a summary of the changes in ELinks 0.10.3.

New features:

 - Merge the MingGW patches so that --dump should now work. The patches
   also improves portability.

Feature updates and improvements:

 - Change the behavior of an empty action attribute to be like Mozilla
   which handles action="" as action="<current-URI>". (bug 615) 

 - The Perl hooks file is growing more and more insane thanks to Russ.

 - Improve the reporting of errors related to the proxy configuration.

 - Add toggle HTML/plain to the right click menu (aka. the tab menu),
   and make it to not display reload/bookmark when no document is
   available. 

 - Add a <base href=cwd /> element to the generated listing of local
   directories.

 - When the URL parameter to the Refresh HTTP-equiv is missing refresh
   the current document.

Bugs fixed:

 - Fix opening of either single bookmarks or folders referring to URLs
   without a slash at the end.

 - Fix honouring of the Refresh-header when the loaded document is
   empty.

 - Fix CSS handling by reverting the proposed optimization introduced in
   0.10.2.

 - Fix displaying of ordered lists when <li> is not directly nested in
   <ol>-elements.

 - Build fixes on amd64.

 - Fix the Perl get-proxy hook so that an undef return value from the
   Perl hook results in the default proxy being used, as is supposed to
   be the case with get-proxy hooks.  

 - Fix compile error related name clashes with the <locale.h> system
   header.

 - The debian package now really contains relevant documentation from
   doc/.

 - Only create $prefix/lib directory if the gettext code is going to
   install a new charset.alias file.  

 - Truncate NNTP cache entries when ending connections.  

Add to this various smaller fixes, cleanups and translation updates.
The complete changelog is available in the package.

Please, if a bug you reported in bugzilla (http://bugzilla.elinks.or.cz)
has been fixed help to close it or verify whether the bug is infact
fixed.

As always you are more than welcome to join the insomniacs hanging out
at the #elinks IRC channel on irc.freenode.net if you want to report
issues or meet developers.
