16 cc9bf8f2 2021-11-05 op Telescope is written entirely for fun, as a hobbystic project in my free time. As such, it lacks a ton of features you’ll find in more mature Gemini browsers, but it also has some unique ones.
18 cc9bf8f2 2021-11-05 op The UI is strongly inspired from Emacs and W3M, so you’ll find some familiar concepts, such as the minibuffer or the tabline, and the default keybindigs also reflect this, but care has been taken to add keys familiar for vi and CUA users too.

54 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op A SHA256 file containing the checksums is available. However, that only checks for accidental corruption: you can use signify (SHA256.sig and the public key telescope-0.7.pub) or GPG. The hash of the signify public key is also included in the SHA256 file and signed with my GPG too. The signify public key for the next release ‘telescope-0.8.pub’ is also included.

76 a2fe40fe 2022-01-15 op 0.7.1 “Via Paolo Fabbri 43” bugfix release — Released January 15, 2022
80 a2fe40fe 2022-01-15 op * fix an use-after-free when loading an about:* URL from about:about. Reported by Brian Callahan, thanks!
84 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op 0.7 “Via Paolo Fabbri 43” — Released January 13, 2022
86 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op ### New features
88 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op * caching: telescope will keep a in-memory copy of the visited page for some time to speed up history navigation. See also the new command `cache-info'.
89 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op * persistent tab history: telescope will remember the full history for each tab across sessions.
90 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op * re-open closed tabs (even across sessions!) The `u' key is now bound to `tab-undo-close' by default.
91 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op * allow to customise the space after the end of the buffer. By default telescope now renders a vi-like tilde fringe "~", but it's fully customisable using the new `line.fringe' style identifier. See also the new setting `fringe-ignore-offset'.
93 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op ### Improvements
95 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op * ask before quitting telescope.
96 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op * execute-extended-command: execute the selected command on RET.
97 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op * bump default fill-column to 120.
98 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op * bind `del' (backspace) to previous-page. Suggested by Florian, thanks!
99 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op * add --colours as --color alias. Suggested by Florian.
101 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op ### Bug fixes
103 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op * fixed crash on --colors. Reported by Florian, thanks!
104 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op * don't push the current url to the history *twice* at startup.
106 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op ### Breaking changes
108 d9bfe90a 2022-01-13 op * variable `set-title' renamed to `update-title'. The old name will still be supported for a while to ease backwards compatibility.
