Package: xxxterm
Version: 1.518-1Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,It would be nice to have xxxterm release 1.9.0 in
Debian. There are a bunch of releases between 1.518. Here's a brief
changelog of the changes in-between :-
1.9.0 (released 2011-12-08)* Rewrite entire keyboard handling in order
to hook keys earlier. This enables much more fine grained control. Vi
mode is much nicer now.* Add hybrid keyboard mode (sort of emacs
like).* Add proxy enable/disable toggle command.* Add JS autorun after
a page loads.* Fix some more hinting mode bugs.
1.8.1 (released 2011-11-05)* Add webkit webinspector.* Fix a couple of
link following bugs (command box wouldn't disappear,  enter didn't
always work and some more nits).* Rewrite Linux makefile to do auto
dependency generation, install icons  and add an uninstall target.*
Fix clang 3.0 warnings.* Add buffer command zz to center page.* Set
default encoding to UTF-8 in order to render Latin languages
correctly.* Add M-p command to toggle plugin enable.* Add :stop
command to stop loading page.* Fix a couple of minor bugs.
1.8.0 (released 2011-11-02)* Add mechanism to run external JavaScript
in the current tab context.  This  opens up all kinds of interesting
possibilities.  This can be seen a a  mechanism to write custom
scripts on webpages.  The intent is to hook this in  a way that
JavaScrip can be called before and/or after a site loads etc.* Fix an
out of order execution crash when restoring sessions.* Add command and
insert mode on webpages and a toggle to pick a default for  this
feature.* Rewrite the hinting code completly and pull in the latest
vimprobable JS code.  Hinting now supports tabbing through links and
run-before-page-is-loaded as  well.* Add open-in-new-tab hinting
option.* Man page improvements.

1.7.0 (released 2011-10-25)* Add threads back to asynchronously
retrieve certificates.  Thischange was painful due to locking issues
between webkit, gcrypt andflashplayer.  This release works around all
the flaws and preventsdeadlocks and/or crashes.* Add a whitelist for
plugins that works just like the JavaScript andcookie whitelist.*
Clean up gcc > 4.2 and clang warnings.* Fix a use after free in the
mime type handling* Do some gtk3 fixes however don't enable it by
default because gtk3webkit is very slow.
1.6.1 (released 2011-10-26)* This release fixes a bug which caused the
wrong tab to get the keystrokes* fixes a crash which occurred when
hitting the back button* fixes the search direction on a new page,
ignores commands whichstart with a digit on completion* kills thread
use for https connections (it was error-prone, andfixing it will
require heaps of code; will be back at some point)* adds Web page
encoding support* other assorted cleanup and fixes.* adds Web page
encoding support
All of this taken from http://opensource.conformal.com/fluxbb/viewforum.php?id=8
I think the ones in 1.8.1 and more specifically :-
* Rewrite Linux makefile to do auto dependency generation, install
icons  and add an uninstall target.
should make your life easier going forward.
