Suggestion to improve wezterm's changelog for readability
Raw
Wezterm changelog, formatted.md

New stuff

Platform specific:

Removed and Changed stuff

  • Removed: Parasio Dark color scheme; it was a duplicate of the correctly named Paraiso Dark scheme. Thanks to @adrian5! #906
  • Changed: COLORTERM=truecolor is now set in the environment. #875
  • Changed: the homebrew tap is now a Cask that installs to the /Applications directory on macOS. Thanks to @laggardkernel!

Improved stuff

  • Option skip_close_confirmation_for_processes_named now includes common windows shell processes cmd.exe, pwsh.exe and powershell.exe. #843
  • Formatting of the new-tab button. Thanks to @sdrik! #950
  • Proper antialiasing for undercurl. Thanks to @ModProg! #838
  • Wezterm now respects default emoji presentation and explicit emoji variation selectors (VS15 and VS16) so that glyphs that have both textual (usually monochrome, single cell width) and emoji (color, double width) presentations can be more faithfully rendered. #997
  • Wezterm now uses the Dual Source Blending feature of OpenGL to manage subpixel anti-aliasing alpha blending, resulting in improved appearance particularly when using a transparent window over the top of something with a light background. #932
  • wezterm ls-fonts --list-system shows all available fonts, wezterm ls-fonts --text "hello" explains which fonts are used for each glyph in the supplied text
  • Improved VT102 conformance. Many thanks to Autumn Lamonte! #904
  • Can now recover from exhausting available texture space by clearing the screen. #879
  • DEC Special Graphics mode conformance and complete coverage of the graphics character set. Thanks to Autumn Lamonte! #891
  • Messaging around exit_behavior

Updated stuff

  • Updated bundled Noto Color Emoji font to version 2.028 featuring a design update. Thanks to @4cm4k1! #1003
  • Updated: conpty.dll to v1.9.1445.0; fixes color bar artifacts when resizing window and allows win32 console applications to use mouse events
  • Updated: ssh client now processes Include statements in ssh config ( FIXME: should be in Improved section?)

Fixed stuff

Platform specific:

  • Windows: detect window resizes while authenticating for wezterm ssh #696
  • Windows: first character after wezterm ssh keyboard authention was swallowed #771
  • Windows: pane could linger after the process has died, closing only when a new pane/tab event occurs
  • macOS: bright window padding on Intel-based macs #653, #716 and #1000
  • wayland: CursorNotFound error with the whiteglass theme. #532
  • wayland: putting a window in the Sway scratchpad no longer blocks the wezterm process #884
  • x11,wayland: Mod3 is no longer treater as SUPER #933

All platforms:

  • Fixed: OSC 52 clipboard escape didn't work in the initial pane spawned in the multiplexer server #764
  • Fixed: OSC 7 (current working directory) now works with paths that contain spaces and other special characters. Thanks to @Arvedui! #799
  • Fixed: UTF8-encoded-C1 control codes were not always recognized as control codes, and could result in a panic when later attempting to update the line. #768
  • Fixed: force_reverse_video_cursor wasn't correctly swapping the cursor colors in all cases. #706
  • Fixed: wezterm cli split-pane didn't use the current working dir of the source pane. #766
  • Fixed: wezterm ssh could loop forever in the background if the connection drops and the window is closed. #857

  • Fixed: allow multuple IdentityFile lines in an ssh_config block to be considered
  • Fixed: click to focus now focuses the pane under the mouse cursor #881
  • Fixed: closing last pane in a tab via CloseCurrentPane could cause the window to close #890

  • Fixed: double-click-drag selection could panic when crossing line boundaries #762
  • Fixed: errors loading custom color schemes are now logged to the error log #794
  • Fixed: focus tracking events are now also generated when switching between panes #941
  • Fixed: if a line of text was exactly the width of the terminal it would get marked as wrappable even when followed by a newline, causing text to reflow incorrectly on resize. #971
  • Fixed: incorrect Sixel HLS hue handling #775
  • Fixed: incorrect initial window/pty size when running with some tiling window managers. #695
  • Fixed: key repeat on Wayland now respects the system specified key repeat rate, and doesn't "stick". #669

  • Fixed: ssh client would read /etc/ssh/config rather than the proper /etc/ssh/ssh_config
  • Fixed: we now recognize the CSI 48:2:0:214:255m form of specifying true color text attributes #785
