| | 6 | |
| | 7 | * '''libpurple''' |
| | 8 | * In MySpaceIM, messages from spambots are discarded (Justin Williams) |
| | 9 | * Strip mIRC formatting codes from quit and part messages. |
| | 10 | * IRC now displays ban lists in-channel for joined channels. |
| | 11 | * Fixed a bug where the list of loaded plugins would get removed when switching between different operating systems. |
| | 12 | * Fix reception of IRC PART without a part message on Undernet (fixes a problem with litter in the channel user list). |
| | 13 | * IRC no longer crashes on /list on servers which erroneously omit RPL_LISTSTART. |
| | 14 | * Update the NetworkManager support to use D-Bus directly, instead of libnm-glib. Hopefully it's stable now. It will now compile by default if you have D-Bus support and NetworkManager.h. (Elliott Sales de Andrade) |
| | 15 | * MSN buddy list synchronization is now more forgiving, only asking about buddies who have disappeared completely from the server list and not those that have simply moved groups. |
| | 16 | * IRC will now try to append 1-9 to your nick if it is in use, instead of substituting the last character with 1-9 where possible. |
| | 17 | * Bonjour buddies will be saved persistently if they're moved out of the "Bonjour" group. (Eion Robb) |
| | 18 | |
| | 19 | * '''Pidgin''' |
| | 20 | * The typing notification in the conversation history can be disabled or customized (font, color etc.) in .gtkrc-2.0. |
| | 21 | * Added a plugin (not installed by default) which adds a Send button back to the conversation window. People without physical keyboards have a hard time with the lack of the button. |
| | 22 | * Clicking on the buddyicon in the conversation window toggles the size of the icon between small and large. |
| | 23 | * The settings of a chat (e.g. Handle in an XMPP chat, or Exchange in an AIM chat) can be edited from its context menu in the buddy list. |
| | 24 | * Add a "Present conversation window" preference to the Message Notification plugin; the "Raise conversation window" option does not unminimize windows or draw attention to them when they are on other workspaces--the "Present" option should. |
| | 25 | * Add a preference to set Escape as the keyboard shortcut for closing the conversation window. |
| | 26 | * Add an option in the context menu to disable smileys in the selected text in the conversation history/log viewer. This should help people who regularly paste code in conversations. |
| | 27 | * Add a preference to choose the minimum size of the text input area in lines. |
| | 28 | * Moved the "Local alias" field in the Modify Account dialog to be below the "User Options" heading on the "Basic" tab. |
| | 29 | * Number of room occupants is now shown in chat tooltips where possible |
| | 30 | |
| | 31 | * '''General''' |
| | 32 | * The configure script now dies on more absent dependencies. The --disable-xxx arguments to configure can be used to bypass unneeded dependencies. This will also cause the configure script to die if an --enable-xxx option is used and the dependencies it requires are missing. |
| | 33 | * The Evolution integration plugin must now be explicitly enabled. Use the --enable-gevolution argument to configure to enable it. |
| | 34 | * The Contact Availability Prediction plugin must now be explicitly enabled. Use the --enable-cap argument to configure to enable it. |
| | 35 | |
| | 36 | * '''Finch''' |
| | 37 | * New default binding ctrl+x to open context menus. |
| | 38 | * Menu triggers and other bindings will no longer conflict. |
| | 39 | * Middle click pastes the internal clipboard (when mouse support is enabled). |
