News
1. NEWS
1.1. Version 4.0.1-pre
1.1.1. Maybe provide a popup-info in completion-at-point
If CAPFns provide such information via `completion-extra-properties`, display it in a popup-info when helm-popup-tip-mode is enabled. `helm-lisp-completion-at-point` provides this as well.
1.1.2. Add completion for Char Classes for regexps
This is available in `helm-lisp-completion-at-point`.
1.1.3. Enhance usage of tab-bar-mode from Helm
Previously we were displaying each marked candidate in a tab, now all marked candidates go in same tab. Helm-find-files is now using the same functions as helm-buffers to display its candidates in tab. helm-imenu-all when jumping to a candidate jump to it in its tab if possible.
1.1.4. Access to helm-find-files bookmarks from helm-read-file-name
That's mean that when copying/renaming etc… you can use bookmarks as target.
1.1.5. Fix a bug in query replace in file names
It is now possible to match counter ("\#") inside the replacement string and not only before or after as before.
1.1.6. Fix a bug with dummy sources in file related sources
It is now possible to mark wildcard candidates from unrelated directories.
1.2. Version 4.0
1.2.1. Enhance helm-finder
Now helm-finder fetchs keywords from all packages, not only built-in and allows installing from there.
1.2.2. helm-popup-tip-mode is now usable in any source having the popup-info attribute
In addition of the various helm-grep-* now helm-man-woman and
helm-find-files can benefit of this mode.
1.2.3. New command helm-outline to navigate buffers according to outline-regexp
1.2.4. New helm grep ag action to search results from the helm ag/rg session
This allows filtering the current results to another pattern or to specific file.
1.2.5. New helm grep ag action to launch ag/rg on parent directory of current search
1.2.6. Packages can now be (re)installed/upgraded asynchronously from helm-packages
It is now the default, you can customize this with helm-packages-async.
1.2.7. Helm-find-files persistent delete uses now a read-answer prompt
It is now possible to answer "!" (yes for all) when using marked candidates, this for the file deletion itself and also for the kill buffer question.
1.2.8. Allow saving selection when deleting minibuffer contents
This is now possible with a prefix arg given when position is at eol in minibuffer. This allow for example showing all candidates keeping current selection in helm-ls-git log after a search.
1.2.9. Save files opened from etags and fd in file-name-history
1.2.10. Provide help in helm-read-answer
1.2.11. Disable helm for read-multiple-choice–long-answers
1.3. Version 3.9.9
1.3.1. 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.
1.3.2. Get rid of popup.el dependency
1.3.3. helm-completion-styles-alist accepts commands for completion-in-region
1.3.4. Minibuffer-contents change color in HFF when updating
This is controlled by helm-ff-dim-prompt-on-update user variable.
1.3.5. Now new file and dir have a dummy source in HFF, same for completing-read's
and read-file-name.
1.3.6. 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.
1.3.7. Add affixation function for eww (emacs-30 only)
1.3.8. Allow toggling auto update in helm-top with a prefix arg
1.3.9. Do not use `dired-create-destination-dirs` mechanism for directory creation
as it is not working in some cases (e.g. symlinks).
1.3.10. Fix persistent action in helm mark-ring when follow mode is on
1.3.11. Fix Imenu preselection when point is on a name with special chars
1.3.12. Provide a new progress bar for rsync with a svg widget
Needs svg-lib package but it is not mandatory.
1.4. Version 3.9.8
1.4.1. New helm-finder command
1.4.2. 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 … …
