 * Improve initial dictionary selection which is particularly
   useful for languages which don't typically use spaces to
   separate word boundaries.
 * Build system fixes for building without enchant
 * Translation updates

libspelling 0.4.7
=================

This is a bug-fix release for GNOME 47 and newer

 * Fix a potential assertion failure in B+Tree item removal
 * Translation updates

libspelling 0.4.6
=================

This is a bug-fix release for GNOME 47

 * Improve detection of asynchronous fragment cancellation to break out
   of long-running spellchecking.
 * Fix Rust example and documentation links.

libspelling 0.4.5
=================

This is a bug-fix release for GNOME 47

 * Various robustness fixes for weak ref tracking
 * Various GObject Introspection fixes
 * A new build option to install a static library (libspelling-1.a)
 * Fix a minor leak of extra_word_chars for a language dictionary

libspelling 0.4.4
=================

This is a bug-fix release for GNOME 47

 * Adds a few dozen translations for menu items

=================

This is a bug-fix release for GNOME 47

 * Fix build to disable assertions in release builds
 * Fix an off-by-one in assertion
 * Add i18n for translations of menu entries
 * Ignore empty strings when building job list

libspelling 0.4.2
=================

This is a bug-fix release for GNOME 47

 * Limit the number of corrections to 10 in enchant backend to help with
   dictionary configurations which produce many results.
 * Hide add/ignore menu items when disabled.
 * Don't show word corrections when spellcheck is disabled.

libspelling 0.4.1
=================

This is a bug-fix release for GNOME 47

 * Fixes an important issue tracking weak pointers from a GtkTextBuffer.
 * Fixes an important issue where we could get invalid text iters from
   GtkTextBuffer::delete-range() after the deletion occurred when other
   signal handlers are in play.

libspelling 0.4.0
=================

This is a stable release for GNOME 47.0

 * Protect the SpellingEngine from systems with misconfigured dictionaries.
 * Protect the SpellingTextBufferAdapter from NULL language codes.
 * Protect the SpellingJob from uncooperative break chars which could
   result in zero length runs.
 * Fix some incorrect licenses.

libspelling 0.3.1
=================

This is an unstable release for GNOME 47.rc.

 * Immediately clear tags for invalidated regions without round-tripping
   to the checker thread.
 * Bump soname for ABI changes in 0.3
 * Fix licenses to be LGPLv2.1+
 * Add sysprof profiler marks for performance profiling
 * Update example so people know to copy the button-press work
   to update the menu immediately.
 * Fix pkg-config fields
 * Fix libspelling usage from subproject
 * Make introspection building optional
 * Documentation improvements

libspelling 0.3.0
=================

This is an unstable release for GNOME 47.beta.

The highlight for this release is a new threaded spellchecking
engine. It performs text analysis and dictionary lookups in
bulk off the UI thread. Care is taken to catch collisions in the
face of user editing while spellchecking operations are in flight.

I expect a significant reduction in initial spellchecking time
after opening a document. Opening `gtktextbuffer.c` in Text Editor
was more than 8x faster.

Currently, libspelling relies on GTK main until 4.15.5 is released
so do keep this in mind if you are a distributor.

Some API has changed, though that is unlikely to affect any known
applications using libspelling.

 * Many new unit tests are part of the testsuite
 * SpellingLanguage was renamed to SpellingDictionary
 * SpellingLanguageInfo was renamed to SpellingLanguage
 * Various helpers were added to SpellingTextBufferAdapter so
   that they can update spelling menus. Applications that update
   the cursor position on clicks before showing menus may want to
   force the menu updating before `menu.popup`.
 * SpellingTextBufferAdapter now uses the new GtkTextBufferCommitNotify
   API in GTK 4.15.5 and newer

libspelling 0.2.1
=================

 * Fix licenses to all be LGPLv2.1+
 * Fix handling of cursor-moved signal

libspelling 0.2.0
=================

This is the first stable release of libspelling, for GNOME 45

While I don't promise that we won't break ABI before 1.0, we do aim
to try for that.
