tickr version 0.6.4
-------------------

- In pref windows, some setting changes (like 'read n items per feed')
  need the stream to be reloaded, so now we use:
    current_feed();
  instead of:
    update_pixmap_from_opened_stream();
  (May 23 2013)

- Fix 'quick feed picker (selected feeds) closes when pointer leaves win
  area' and implement it as a setting. (May 22 2013)

- In pref window, disabling screen limits updates win_y and win_w limits
  on the fly. (May 22 2013)

- Max options number now set to 128. (May 21 2013)

- Pref win changes:
  - remove 'system' colors buttons
  - increase gtk table row spacings
  (May 14 2013)

- If gradient bg set, compute text shadow color no longer from bg_color
  but from gradient. (May 14 2013)

- Quick feed picker (selected feeds) closes when pointer leaves win
  area. Plus: quick feed picker opened *also* by Ctrl + mouse
  right-click. (May 4 2013)

- Complete RSS 1.0 support (Closes: #688099) and fix/rewrite a few
  things in feed parser code. (May 3 2013)

- In tickr_feedparser.c: ending '\n' removed when adding string to
  XML_DUMP (left when adding string to XML_DUMP_EXTRA). (May 1 2013)

- Replace update_win_dims() with update_win_dims_and_loc() so that if
  ticker location happens to be wrong, it's always and quickly reset.
  (Apr 30 2103)

- Add RSS 1.0 (RDF) support. (Apr 30 2013)

- In tickr_main.c / main(), change:
    gtk_widget_show_all(env->win);
    update_win_dims();
    gtk_main();
  to:
    gtk_widget_show_all(env->win);
    gtk_widget_set_size_request(env->win, 1, 1);
    gtk_window_resize(GTK_WINDOW(env->win), 1, 1);
    gtk_main();
  to try to get rid of "ghost" square window at startup (but is this
  fully effective ?)
  Also change:
    gtk_widget_set_size_request(env->win, 0, 0)
  to:
    gtk_widget_set_size_request(env->win, 1, 1)
  in update_win_dims(). (Apr 29 2013)

- In feed picker - multiple selection mode: start reading selection with
  highlighted feed - more exactly url in entry (if any) / first one
  otherwise. (Apr 29 2013)

- Remove (useless ?) app version number from exported OPML feed list
  title. (Apr 25 2013)

- Only a little editor issue - some editors get confused (geany colors
  get confused) by things like:
    THIS_IS_A_#DEFINE"____string____"
  so now we put a space in between, like this:
    THIS_IS_A_#DEFINE "____string____"
  (Apr 25 2013)

- If win_w = 0, win_w = detected screen width (same as 'full width' but
  from command line). (Apr 24 2013)

- Fix xml namespaces issue in tickr_feedparser.c, when, for instance,
  'media:title' exists along with 'title' and we then get 'title' twice.
  Now, we make sure no extra namespace is used before comparing strings
  with 'title', 'description', etc. (April 22 2013)

- Fix stupid bug in format_resource() 'translate html entities' when '&'
  alone is detected (ie without a following ';'). Also fix 'translating'
  numerical entities with leading '0' in value string. (Apr 21 2013)

- New option 'disablescreenlimits' which allows win_y and win_w to be
  greater than screen dimensions. (Apr 13 2013)

- A few default settings changed. (Apr 13 2013)

- Gradient bg. (Apr 13 2013)


tickr version 0.6.3
-------------------

- Fix messy update_everything() function and add new
  update_pixmap_from_opened_stream() function, used in tickr_mainc.c and
  tickr_prefwin.c. (Feb 4 2013)

- All *string* values are now saved inclosed in a pair of " or '.
  (This avoid getting trailing whitespaces removed by some editors, and
  other weird things like that.) When read, enclosing " or ' are
  removed, so backward compatibility is preserved. (Feb 3 2013)

- install-on-win32 script renamed build-on-win32 (for accuracy sake.)
  (Oct 30 2012)

- Fix some confusion about win_transparency in tickr_param.c. Actually,
  double value from 0.1 to 1.0 inside program / int value from 1 to 10
  inside config file or as command line argument. (? 2012)

- Fix settings import doing nothing (regression bug). (Sep 20 2012)

- In show_resource_info(), fix URL link and GTK label. (Sep 20 2012)

    #define N_STR_MAX		8
    #define STR_MAXLEN		FILE_NAME_MAXLEN	(128 previously)
  and remove duplicates. (Sep 19 2012)

- In tickr_feedpicker.c, add:
    if (IS_FLIST(flist_bak))
      (  f_list_free_all(flist_bak);  )
  to fix: list crash (f_list_free_all(): Invalid node in list) after
  adding a feed to an empty list (when clicking OK). (Sep 18 2012)

- Rename (#define RESOURCE_DUMP) APP_CMD"-resrc-dump" ->
  APP_CMD"-resrc-dump.xml" (because it *is* an XML file.) (Sep 15 2012)

- Little changes in big_error() text. (Aug 14 212)


tickr version 0.6.2
-------------------

- Non standard feed rank support in OPML file. (Jul 15 2012)

- Add new optional 'feed re-ordering by user' feature. (Jul 15 2012)

- Add in libetm-0.4.4/str_mem.c/h: (int) str_is_num(const char *) and
  (int) str_is_blank(const char *). (Jul 15 2012)

- In feed picker win, 'enter' in (rank_/url_)entry launches 'add/upd'
  (GTK_RESPONSE_ADD) instead of 'ok (single)' (GTK_RESPONSE_SINGLE).
  (Jul 3 2012)

- Question at program start-up about new feed list format conversion:
  if version = 0.6.2 and feed list exists and feed list backup doesn't
  exist, create backup and convert to new format. (Jul 2 2012)

- In tickr_feedpicker.c: fix 'cancel' action. (Jun 29 2012)

- New func FList *f_list_clone(FList *) in tickr_list/c/h. (Jun 29 2012)

- Use GTK_RESPONSE_CANCEL_CLOSE only. (Jun 29 2012)

- In compute_surface_and_win(), remove:
    if (prm->icon_in_taskbar == 'n')
      gtk_window_deiconify(GTK_WINDOW(env->win));
  from update_win_dims() (why was it there?) to fix 'tickr keeps
  stealing focus' bug. Also replace params_have_been_changed() with
  win_params_have_been_changed(). (LP: #900759, #951452, #1017107)
  (Jun 28 2012)

- Fix (regression bug) segfault which occurs when opening text file and
  attempting to 'format_resource()' 'not-generated-if-resource is-file'
  XML_DUMP_EXTRA file. (Jun 20 2012)

- Libetm version 0.4.3 -> 0.4.4 (see below.) (Jun 19 2012)

- Add get_appdata-dir_w() in libetm-0.4.4:win32_specific.c and
  get_appdata_dir_utf8() in tickr_resource.c to fix non-ascii (for
  instance cyrillic) user name in app data dir issue on win32.
  Also remove seemingly useless g_win32_locale_filename_from_utf8()
  stuff on win32. (Jun 19 2012)

- If 'item title' and 'item description' both unchecked in pref win,
  warn about 'pointless' setup and ask for confirmation before saving
  config. (Jun 18 2012)

- Add new TickerEnv member (int) mouse_x_in_drwa used to continuously
  tracks (guess what?) mouse x position. Now we have:
  - tooltips with descriptions when ticker displays only titles
  and
  - tooltips with titles when ticker displays only descriptions.
  (Jun 14 2012)

- Add fp_extra stuff in tickr_feedparser.c to get item titles /
  descriptions (in tooltips and others) when they are no displayed.
  (Jun 12 2012)

- Remove tmp files when exiting tickr_resource.c:format_resource().
  (Jun 12 2012)

-------------------

- Add: 'quick setup' thing (in tickr_quicksetup.c) which is launched at
  program startup if config file doesn't exist. (Jun 4 2012)

- Little improvements in layout of 'feed picker win' and 'preferences
  win'. (Jun 3 2012)

- Fix a segfault that happens when trying to export params and no config
  file exists yet. (Jun 3 2012)

- Make several windows that should not be resized by user, unresizable.
  (Jun 3 2012)

- Fix Launchpad bug #1007346: When 'window always-on-top' is disabled,
  'visible on all user desktops' stops working. (Jun 1 2012)

- If mouse wheel scrolling applies to speed (or feed), then Ctrl + mouse
  wheel scrolling applies to feed (or speed.) (May 31 2012)

- No real code changes in libetm, only in comments, so no need for a new
  version number. (May 31 2012)

- Update tickr_helptext.c and tickr.1 (man page.) (May 30 2012)

- Add new cli option 'no-ui' (similar to 'instance-id') used by new
  IF_UI_ALLOWED macro and remove all #if USE_GUI occurences.
  (May 28 2012)

- In tickr_list.c, free listfname before using it. Fixed by swapping 2
  lines:
    warning(FALSE, 4, "Can't save URL list ", listfname, ...);
    l_str_free(listfname);
  (May 28 2012)

- Use/add #define
    FONT_MAXLEN			68
    ARBITRARY_TASKBAR_HEIGHT	25
  to replace a few 'magic' numeric values. (May 21 2012)

- Rename: rss_title/description(_delimiter) ->
    item_title/description(_delimiter)
  then add new param: feed_title(_delimiter). Now we have:
  feed title / item title / item description. (May 20 2012)

- Use table in resource properties window. (May 2O 2012)

- Fix a bug in f_list_load_from_file() in tickr_list.c which uncorrectly
  retrieves any feed title  string containing TITLE_TAG_CHAR when
  TITLE_TAG_CHAR has not been removed from string first, for instance:
  'NYT > World' -> ' World'. (May 2O 2012)

- New param: disable left-click. (May 2O 2012)

- Add 'check for updates' feature. (May 19 2012)

- Launch 'import OPML file' if feed list doesn't exist. (May 18 2012)

- Remove code changing get_params()->disable_popups value in
    START/END_PAUSE_TICKER_WHILE_OPENING
  macros which prevents this setting to be saved and add
    START/END_PAUSE_TICKER_ENABLE_POPUPS_WHILE_OPENING
  new macros. Which ones to use depends on context. (May 10 2012)

- Move:
    #ifdef G_OS_WIN32
    extern FILE	*stdout_fp, *stderr_fp;
    #endif
  from *.c into tickr.h. (May 9 2012)

- Default always-on-top setting changed to 'n' (so that tickr is not
  intrusive by default.) (May 5 2012)


tickr version 0.6.0
-------------------

- Complete quick_feed_picker() stuff in tickr_quickfeedpicker.c.
  (March 7 2012)

  tickr_opml.c and tickr_resource.c. (March 5 2012)

- Renaming 2 src files:
  - tickr_rss.c -> tickr_feedparser.c
  - tickr_rsswin.c -> tickr_feedpicker.c
  (Feb 16 2012)

- Add new func: win_with_progress_bar() (in tickr_otherwins.c) and use
  it in feed list import thing (in tickr_opml.c) instead of
  not-spinning-as-expected win_with_spinner(). (Feb 15 2012)

- When opening the feed picker dialog, highlight and scroll to current
  feed, plus several extra fixes and tweaks (in tickr_rsswin.c.)

  ->
  'feed title / file name  |  app name and version num'
  (Jan 21 2012)

- In libetm-0.4.3:
  - Compile with win32_specific.c only on win32 (fix empty unit
    warning.)
  - get_libetm_version() (function name modified.) (Jan 19 2012)

- Fix a typo in debian/control Build-Depends:
  'debhelper (>= 7.O.50~)' instead of 'debhelper (>= 7.0.50~)'
  which only shows up when trying to build for Lucid. (Dec 30 2011)

- Split tickr_http.c into tickr_http.c and tickr_socket.c. (Dec 19 2011)

  Replace KB, MB, GB, TB with KiB, MiB, GiB, TiB. (Dec 18 2011)


tickr version 0.5.5
-------------------

- Implement new parameter: <mouse wheel scrolling applies to:
  s = ticker-speed / f = feed-in-list / n = none>.

- Set <ticker pause on mouse-over> as optional.

- Select/highlight and scroll to added URL in the list window.
  (Dec 17 2011)

- Split compute_surface_and_win() code into compute_surface and
  compute_win, because the later is not always necessary. When
  window-always-on-top is disabled, compute_win needs to be run only
  twice at program startup (ie once after gtk_widget_show_all() has been
  called), then whenever params are changed, but not every time a new
  feed is loaded.

- Add preferences (settings) importing/exporting feature.

- 'file' scheme support added in tickr_http.c -> enables reading *and*
  xml-processing of (local) text files (wheras 'open text file' *only*
  read them.) (Dec 16 2011)

- 'HTTPS not supported' handling/warning added in tickr_http.c (fix bug:
  program freezes with HTTP redirects to HTTPS.)
  (Dec 14 2011)

- xml 'quick check' in tickr_http.c:format_quick_check() don't reject
  anymore valid (?) feeds not starting with '<?xml' (like google news.)
  (Dec 13 2011)

- A few little changes in libetm-0.4 -> libetm-0.4.2. (Dec 12 2011)

- Use mouse wheel to go to previous/next feed. (Dec 11 2011)

- Hide passwords in connection settings window. (Dec 8 2011)

- Pause ticker and show feed title in tooltip on mouse-over. (Dec 3 2011)

- Renaming all source files: news_*.c/h -> tickr_*/c/h. (Nov 30 2011)


tickr version 0.5.4 - Nov 8 2011
--------------------------------

- Fix sort_url_list(EMPTY_LIST) falsly returning one element list
  (in news_list.c.) Now, program doesn't hang anymore if lauched with no
  feed URLs selected.

- Add in news_main.c: shift2left_callback():
  env->suspend_rq = TRUE / (cairo drawing code) / env->suspend_rq = FALSE

- Tickr fails to build with ld --as-needed (recently-set-as-default
  linker flag) because libraries must be placed after objects needing
  theirs symbols.
  To fix that, we use autoconf macro PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GTK2, gtk+-2.0, ,)
  and PKG_CHECK_MODULES(XML2, libxml-2.0, ,) in configure.ac, and we
  may so remove `pkg-config --libs GTK+-2.0' and `xml-config --libs' from
  src/tickr/Makefile.am.


========================================================================
- NEWS has been renamed TICKR as it is now in Debian Sid (unstable)
  Last stable version number for News is 0.5.2
  First stable version number for Tickr is 0.5.3

- changes in news v0.5.3~beta1: prevent connection settings window from
  showing when popups are disabled

- tickr v0.5.3 doesn't bring many changes/fixes besides program renaming
  and <prevent connection settings window from showing when popups are
  disabled>
========================================================================
