NEWS file for ttystatus
=======================
Version 0.38, released 2017-12-04
----------------------------------
* Add `Speed` widget to count change speed.
Version 0.37, released 2017-11-11
----------------------------------
Version 0.36, released 2017-11-10
----------------------------------
* The sphinx formatted manual is dropped. It was too much of a bother
to maintain, sorry. Also, out of date.
* `ttystatus` is not ported to Python 3.
Version 0.35, released 2017-06-03
----------------------------------
* Add new method TerminalStatus.hide.
Version 0.34, released 2016-12-26
---------------------------------
* Require Python 2.7.
* Add a missing empty line needed for PEP8 compliance. This caused a
failure in the test suite, no idea why it wasn't caught when making
the previous release.
Version 0.32, released 2016-01-09
---------------------------------
* Fix some variable type changes found by pylint.
Version 0.31, released 2016-01-09
---------------------------------
* Fix bug in how areas on the terminal are erased. This exhibited
itself by the `TerminalStatus.notify` method not removing an
existing status message before writing out the notification.
* Fix bug in `TerminalStatus.flush` that meant it did not, in fact,
flush the output.
Version 0.30, released 2015-10-17
---------------------------------
* Strip ASCII control characters from displayed output (but expand
TABs) in widget values. This avoids TABs making values longer than
expected, and terminals getting confused by control sequences.
* New method `ttystatus.TerminalStatus.get_terminal_size` returns
terminal width and height.
* Speed up updates by not updating widgets if they aren't interested
in the variable that got changed. This only works for widgets added
with the `format` method, but that should be all of them for anyone
not liking verbose, tedious code.
Version 0.29, released 2015-10-10
---------------------------------
* Do not write a newline to terminal when `finish()` is called, if
there is not output to the terminal otherwise. The point of the
newline is to make sure the shell prompt starts at the beginning of
a new line.
Version 0.28, released 2015-10-10
---------------------------------
* Fix another case where terminal capabilities are queried and the
terminal isn't capable.
Version 0.27, released 2015-10-10
---------------------------------
* Improve speed when progress output is disabled, by avoiding
pointless rendering.
Version 0.26, released 2015-10-06
---------------------------------
* Fix looking up of capabilities when there is not terminal. Reported
by Sharon Kimble.
Version 0.25, released 2015-10-05
---------------------------------
* Fix handling of a terminal without the necessary capabilities, by
disabling output.
Version 0.24.1, released 2015-10-01
---------------------------------
* Fix handling the case of the process not having a terminal to talk
to. Reported by Juergen Nickelsen.
Version 0.24, released 2015-09-30
---------------------------------
* Output can now be on multiple lines. Add newlines to format string.
Version 0.23, released 2013-06-19
---------------------------------
* No longer use the SIGWINCH handler, since that causes problems when
applications do certain kinds of I/O and the signal interrupts it.
Libraries shouldn't install signal handlers like this. Instead,
query the terminal width whenever making updates.
Version 0.22, released 2013-03-12
---------------------------------
* When the terminal size changes, ttystatus will now update the display
at once.
Version 0.21, released 2012-09-29
-----------------------------------
* Updated README with information about where the output goes, and that
it is restricted to one line.
Version 0.20, released 2012-09-23
---------------------------------
* `TerminalStatus.error` now always outputs. Error messages are too valuable
to lose.
Version 0.19, released 2012-06-30
---------------------------------
* Added a `TerminalStatus.flush` method, to allow forcing an update.
Version 0.18, released 2012-05-08
---------------------------------
* `ByteSpeed` can now show average speed over a short period of time
(which approximates current speed), instead of over the whole duration
of the program.
Version 0.17, released 2012-04-15
---------------------------------
* Committed genocide towards whole civilizations of rendering problems.
Version 0.16, released 2012-04-08
---------------------------------
* Speed up by avoiding to format widgets until it's time to update.
Version 0.15, released 2011-09-17
---------------------------------
* Bugfix: the String widget now handles non-string values.
Version 0.14, released 2011-08-31
---------------------------------
* Notifications are written to the standard output, not the terminal.
* A method for printing error messages is provided. They are printed to
the standard error.
* The `PercentDone` class handles zero total amounts better now.
* Widgets may now be added using a simple format string. See
`ttystatus.TerminalStatus.format` method.
Version 0.13, released 2011-08-18
---------------------------------
* No upstream changes, but released with a new upstream version so that
Debian packaging does not need to get convoluted.
Version 0.12, released 2011-07-24
---------------------------------
* API documentation is now done with Sphinx.
* The SIGWINCH signal is now marked as a re-starting one, so that socket I/O
is not interrupted when an application uses ttystatus and the terminal is
resized.
Version 0.11, released 2011-04-23
---------------------------------
* `pydoc ttystatus` now works better: you no longer need to access
modules to see the exported classes. Instead, see all of them directly.
* A final newline is no longer written out if there has been no output
otherwise.
Version 0.10, released 2011-03-23
---------------------------------
* Fix handling of /dev/tty not being avilable. This can happen, e.g., when
things are run from cron.
Version 0.9, released 2011-02-13
--------------------------------
* Add ttystatus.Integer.
Version 0.8.1, released 2011-01-30
--------------------------------
* Do not write notifications if output is disabled.
Version 0.8, released 2011-01-30
--------------------------------
* Write status output to /dev/tty by default.
Version 0.7, released 2010-10-09
--------------------------------
* Fix bug that failed to show the last few updates when .finish() was called.
Version 0.6, released 2010-07-13
--------------------------------
* Add ByteSpeed widget.
Version 0.5, released 2010-07-07
--------------------------------
* Speed optimization: widgets are now only updated when the values they're
interested are updated, and widgets are now only formatted when the result
is actually going to be printed. For long-running processes with
frequent updates, this saves a lot of unnecessary computation.
* Debian packaging fix: Add Python-Version headers.
Version 0.4, released 2010-07-05
--------------------------------
* Bugfix: when the output won't fit, and the last widget is a `Pathname`,
the last character is no longer chopped off.
