News
1. NEWS
1.1. Version 3.9.9
1.1.1. Change prefix arg behavior of helm-show-all-candidates-in-source
With a prefix arg show all candidates, with a numeric prefix arg show ARG number of candidates, and with no prefix arg show only helm-candidate-number-limit of candidates.
1.1.2. Get rid of popup.el dependency
1.1.3. helm-completion-styles-alist accepts commands for completion-in-region
1.1.4. Minibuffer-contents change color in HFF when updating
This is controlled by helm-ff-dim-prompt-on-update user variable.
1.1.5. Now new file and dir have a dummy source in HFF, same for completing-read's
and read-file-name.
1.1.6. helm-info-at-point shows index of current page in addition of default
So it can safely be used as a replacement of "i" in Info.
1.1.7. Add affixation function for eww (emacs-30 only)
1.1.8. Allow toggling auto update in helm-top with a prefix arg
1.1.9. Do not use `dired-create-destination-dirs` mechanism for directory creation
as it is not working in some cases (e.g. symlinks).
1.1.10. Fix persistent action in helm mark-ring when follow mode is on
1.1.11. Fix Imenu preselection when point is on a name with special chars
1.1.12. Provide a new progress bar for rsync with a svg widget
Needs svg-lib package but it is not mandatory.
1.2. Version 3.9.8
1.2.1. New helm-finder command
1.2.2. Make `completions-detailed` working with 'emacs' helm-completion-style
It was already working but was really slow and was not supporting `helm-completing-read-command-categories` mechanism which provide `completions-detailed` in much more places than Emacs vanilla.
1.2.3. Helm-goto-line save position even when using persistent actions
1.2.4. helm-info is now colorized
1.2.5. Displaying thumnails is now slighly faster
1.2.6. Add a new mode to edit bookmark annotations
When viewing an annotation you had to kill the buffer, restart helm-bookmarks, and run the edit annotation action, now you can edit directly from the view buffer.
1.2.7. It is now possible to rename marked bookmarks
1.2.8. New compress/uncompress/compress-to action in helm-find-files
All actions are asynchronous except the persistent ones.
1.2.9. Allow toggling while-no-input for easier edebugging
Use the new `helm-update-edebug` variable to enable this.
1.2.10. And various bug fixes as always
1.3. Version 3.9.7
1.3.1. Fix package-requires in helm.el
1.4. Version 3.9.6
1.4.1. Fix bug with helm-mm-exact-search (bug#2616)
1.4.2. Improve locate library fns
1.4.3. Fix a old bug with candidate transformer
candidate-transformer functions should behave the same in in-buffer and sync source: transforming all candidates.
1.4.4. Fix kmacro for Emacs-29+
1.4.5. Various minor bug fixes
1.5. Version 3.9.5
1.5.1. Add compatibility with Emacs-28< for helm-packages
Tested with emacs-27.
1.5.2. Add new action package-isolate for helm-packages
Allow launching a new Emacs with only package(s).
1.5.3. Packages list can be refreshed with C-c C-u
BTW there is no more option to update from actions with prefix arg.
1.5.4. Add more affixations fns for completing-read
Themes, colors etc…
1.5.5. Add new var helm-compleions-detailed for emacs-27
This allow using completions-detailed in Emacs-27 with various describe-* functions.
1.5.6. Helm-occur now doesn't hang when trying to match empty lines
With "^$".
1.5.7. Highlight matches in M-x highlight only commands
I.e. Items in short documentation are not highlighted.
1.6. Version 3.9.4
1.6.1. Add two new alists to allow extending completions-detailed
This allows providing detailed completions in more places, see `helm-completing-read-extra-metadata` and `helm-completing-read-command-categories`. They are not provided as user variables as it may be tricky to provide the corresponding affixations functions. As of now we have detailed completions in describe-function/variable/symbol/command/package, find-function/variable, switch-to-buffer, customize-variable/group, package-(vc)install, package-vc-checkout.
1.6.2. New helm packages manager
The old helm-elisp-package has been replaced by helm-packages. The old one was too slow, taking lot of memory and even crashing Emacs … …
