Change Logs

* Wed Feb 21 2018 badshah400@gmail.com
- Update to version 18.02.0:
  * More tooltips
  * A menu containing the most important commands for lists.
  * TableOfContents: A right-click menu item that allows to toggle
    display of section numbers
  * The size of images can now be restricted to any amount of
    centimeters.
  * On a few operating systems: The network indicator icon now
    knows how much CPU power maxima uses.
  * Autocompletion now suggests the names of built-in packages for
    load(), batch(), and batchload().
  * Autocompletion now suggests the names of built-in demos for
    demo().
  * wxMaxima can now handle requests to display raw lisp elements.
  * A drop-down box for changing cell styles
  * If an input cell is hidden and has no output it now is no more
    displayed as a blank vertical space.
  * wxMaxima no more requires the icon files, tooltips and
    autocompletion files to be shipped as separate files, which
    makes creating a ready-to-install package of wxMaxima easier
    and less error-prone.
  * Autosave is now enabled by default on new installs.
  * Big code cleanups.
  * Many bugfixes
  * Many performance improvements
  * Dropped the autotools as the cmake build of wxMaxima is way
    more powerful.
- Drop unnecessary post[un] scriptlets for openSUSE >= 1500: these
  are automatically handled by rpm file-triggers.
* Thu Oct 26 2017 badshah400@gmail.com
- Update to version 17.10.1
  + No list of changes from upstream.
- Drop wxMaxima-fix-tooltip-comparison.patch: incorporated into
  upstream sources.
- Appdata is now installed to %{_datadir}/metainfo, adapt file
  list accordingly. Own parent dir to avoid ownership issues.
* Thu Oct 12 2017 jengelh@inai.de
- Trim description of irrelevant parts.
* Wed Oct 11 2017 badshah400@gmail.com
- Update wxMaxima-fix-tooltip-comparison.patch to fix a potential
  crash introduced by its previous iteration; taken from upstream.
- Use rsvg-convert instead of inkscape to convert svg icons into
  multi-sized png icons -- this significantly reduces the number
  of build dependencies.
* Sun Oct 01 2017 badshah400@gmail.com
- Add wxMaxima-fix-tooltip-comparison.patch: Patch from upstream
  that fixes building by using the correct comparisn operations
  involving `tooltip` [gh#andrejv/wxmaxima#929].
* Sat Sep 30 2017 badshah400@gmail.com
- Update to version 17.10.0:
  * Jump to the char containing the error on encountering
    unmatched parenthesis.
  * Try to place the cursor near the error in all other cases.
  * Attempt to mark the whole error message in red. This is bound
    to fail in some cases as maxima sometimes only sends part of
    an error message through the error() command. But it is better
    than nothing.
  * Detect and mark most warnings.
  * A "evaluate cells below" right-click-menu item.
  * Autosave now even works for unsaved documents adding them to
    the "recent documents" list if needed.
  * Big parenthesis are now drawn using unicode characters, if
    available.
  * Nicer integral, Product and Sum signs, optionally including
    antialiassing even if no font provides them.
  * MouseOver tooltips for some of the more exotic worksheet
    items.
  * A "Copy as svg" function that is as good as wxSVGFileDc allows
    us to be.
  * Worksheet objects now can provide their own ToolTips.
  * Config Dialogue: An editor for the startup file.
  * It is now possible to select which formats "Ctrl+C" should
    place data on the clipboard in.
  * Now multiple animations can run concurrently and can be told
    to autostart.
  * A menu entry that allows to select 1D and ASCII Art Maths.
  * Recent files that currently don't exist are grayed out now.
  * A command-line switch that triggers evaluation on startup of
    wxMaxima.
  * Many Bug Fixes and Performance improvements.
* Sun Jul 09 2017 badshah400@gmail.com
- Update to version 17.05.1:
  * Mainly fixes some issues related to Mac OS
* Wed Jun 14 2017 badshah400@gmail.com
- Update to version 17.05.0:
  * A config item that allows to disable printing of Cell brackets
  * Cell brackets of inactive cells can now be hidden
  * Due to popular demand we can now suppress the output of
    automatic labels.
  * The option to use a Minus instead of a Hyphen.
  * Table of Contents: Folded items are now grayed out.
  * Table of Contents: A right-click menu.
  * Copy-and-paste now includes hidden cells and folded items.
  * Eye Candy: An indicator that shows when maxima and wxMaxima
    exchange data.
    Double-clicking this indicator opens up the network monitor.
  * Autocompletion now collects words from the current code cell,
    too.
  * Better indentation of if clauses and loops.
  * If the number is too long to display it now is still possible
    to copy it.
  * Documented that box() highlights text in maxima's output.
  * the with_slider type of commands now uses wxstatusbar() in
    order to provide progress information for the user.
  * Several scrolling fixes, again.
  * Two concurrent wxMaxima instances now no more overwrite each
    other's "Recent files" list.
  * If a error message or question arises or maxima finishes
    calculating and the window currently isn't active the
    operating system is asked to notify the user in a
    non-disrupting way. For the case of the end of a calculation
    this can be turned off.
  * The notification can be activated for the case that the window
    isn't active and maxima finishes calculating, too.
  * Invalid XML tags are now handled more gracefully
  * Deduplicated the code for saving .wxm files
  * content.xml files that have been extracted from a broken .wxmx
    file (e.G. using a text editor as UTF8-encoded TeXt without
    BOM can now be loaded by wxMaxima in order to reconstruct the
    worksheet.
  * MacOs: Upgrading from a previous version should no more cause
    crashes due to font issues.
  * MathJaX export can now be configured to instruct the html
    export to download MathJaX from a different URL: They moved
    the URL one can use and might do so again somewhere in the
    future.
  * Maximum number of digits and if we use user-defined labels now
    are no more hardcoded into the worksheet at evaluation time.
  * Anwers to maxima's questions are now remembered across
    sessions.
  * cmake is now our main build system
  * Massive speed-ups
  * File/Open can now import .mac and .out files from Xmaxima

    terminate unexpectedly even if the OS fails to notify us that
    the network connection with maxima has dropped.
  * Incremental search

  * Bullet lists now use real bullets.
  * Markdown: Block quote support

  + MathJAX now provides scaleable equations and extended
    drag-and-drop for the html export.
  + The table-of-contents-sidebar now shows the current cursor
    position.
  + Fixed a few instances of cursors jumping out of the screen.
  + Fixed a few instances of cursors jumping to the beginning or
    end of the worksheet.
  + Better detection which cell maxima is processing and if it
    still is doing so.
  + Regression: Hiding the toolbar didn't work on some systems.
  + Markdown support for <=, >=, <=>, <-, ->, <->, => and +/-
    symbols.
  + An option to not export maxima's input as well as the output.
  + An option to use High-resolution bitmaps for the HTML export.
  + Images that are too big for the window now are displayed in a
    scaled-down version.
  + Fixed the support for out-of-tree-bulds that was broken in 15.04.
  + Meaningful ALT texts for the HTML export to provide accessibility.
  + An option to include the .wxmx file in the .html export.
  + Performance fixes that are espectionally effective for MSW
  + Unification of some platform-specific code.
  * bash autocompletion.
  + A fourth sectioning level.
  + Made entering uppercase greek letters easier and documented
    how to input special unicode symbols.
  + Syntax highlighting in code cells.
  + Automatic highlighting of text equal to the currrently
    selected one.
  + A batch mode that pauses evaluation if maxima asks a question.
  + A "halt on error" feature.

    evaluation of the last command has finished. This means that
    output from maxima is always appended to the right cell.
  + Un-broke error and question handling for multiple commands per
    cell. Sincewe now send maxima's input command-per-command this
    means a cell with multiple commands is no more evaluated
    faster than multiple cells with single commands each.
  + If ever a end-of-evaluation marker gets lost there is a new
    "trigger evaluation" menu entry in the maxima menu.
  + On wxGtk autocompletion was replaced by a content assistant
    that is based on the surprisingly powerful autocompletion
    feature.
  + Ctrl+Tab now launches the autocompletion (or content
    assistant, if available).
  + Tab and Shift+Tab now indent and unindent regions.
  + Ctrl+Mouse wheel and Ctrl++/- now zoom in and out of the
    worksheet.
  + Allow Extending selection from part of a single cell to
    multiple cells.
  + An Autoindent functionality.
