This week's qutebrowser updates
And another week is over! I felt rather dead last week, but then did some stuff on the weekend and there were some nice contributions, so this mail won't be as short as I thought it would! :) I was asked for a rough timeline for v0.1. No hard feelings about it, but that's about how I imagine it: - Now: I will mainly concentrate on bugfixes and few important features for the work I do myself. - Nov 14th: Deadline(-ish) for nice-to-have feature contributions. - Dec 2nd: Qt 5.4 release, so hopefully closing some upstream bugs! - Dec 7th: Deadline(-ish) for features I think are really useful to have in v0.1. - Dec 14th: qutebrowser v0.1 release (hopefully!), 1 year after the initial commit Note: Deadline doesn't mean I won't care about it anymore (contributions are *always* most welcome), but I'll think twice about including it in v0.1. It also doesn't mean I won't include it, I probably won't be able to withstand the temptation :D Overview Excluding merges, 3 authors have pushed 21 commits to master and 21 commits to all branches. On master, 17 files have changed and there have been 275 additions and 112 deletions. 2 Pull requests merged by 2 people 6 Issues closed by 1 person 12 Issues created by 1 person Upgrade notes - In the `colors` section in the config, `tab.fg` has been split into `tab.fg.odd`, `tab.fg.even` and `tab.fg.selected` - so you most likely want to set them all to what `tab.fg` was for you before. Features - Open unknown protocols (e.g. magnet:// or mailto-links) with external viewer. Improvements - hints: Add option to show all hint chars as uppercase (thanks to Peter Vilim for the contribution!) - Make scripts work when the PWD is inside the scripts folder. - Split color option `tabs.fg` into `tabs.fg.(odd|even|selected)`, similiar to the background. (thanks to rikn00 for the contribution!) Bugfixes - Fix completion with flags - Fix completion failing when scrolling fast through results - Fix weird exception when hinting (elements without web frame) - Fix src2asciidoc.py - Fix updating of tab colors when the config changed. - Fix exception when closing last tab with tabs->last-close set to "blank".

Re: feature request
Hi, * henry atting [2014-11-24 11:05:41 +0100]: > is there already a feature (or is something similar in process of > planing) witch allows enabling/disabling scripts/plugins easily, like in > luakit (via ,ts/,tp; tn) Ha, congrats for doing the first non-"weekly qutebrowser news" posting on this list :D What do these keybindings do in luakit exactly? Do they toggle plugins per-page, or globally? To do this per-page, two features would be needed: 1. Domain-wide settings. This is planned, but most likely not before v0.1 is released in December. 2. A :set --toggle option or so, to bind a key to. This is planned as well (so e.g. you could also add a keybinding to set/unset a proxy) but probably also not before v0.1 - but maybe, because I'd really need it myself as well :D If these two features are implemented, I'll probably add the same keybindings dwb has for them: tsh - Toggle scripts for current host permanently tsu - Toggle scripts for current url permanently tth - Toggle scripts for current host temporarily ttu - Toggle scripts for current url temporarily ph - Toggle plugins for current host permanently pu - Toggle plugins for current url permanently pth - Toggle plugins for current host temporarily ptu - Toggle plugins for current url temporarily Florian -- http://www.the-compiler.org | m...@the-compiler.org (Mail/XMPP) GPG 0xFD55A072 | http://the-compiler.org/pubkey.asc I love long mails! | http://email.is-not-s.ms/ pgpoT2Ynd3aWj.pgp Description: PGP signature

This week's qutebrowser updates
Less than a week to go to v0.1, which will hopefully be released this Sunday! I took days off from work starting Wednesday, so I can work on getting the remaining bugs[1] fixed until then. Of course this week some of them already were squashed! :) I also spent some time last week to get a buildbot up which runs tests automatically on each push on various operating systems (Archlinux, Debian, 2x Ubuntu, 2x Windows). It can be found here: http://buildbot.qutebrowser.org/ (the most interesting view is probably http://qutebrowser.org:8010/waterfall ) Also, I could close two more bugs because they were fixed in Qt 5.4, which will be released Wednesday: - Weird font rendering with tewi https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/issues/92 - Changing allow-plugins to false does not have the expected outcome https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/issues/240 [1] https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+milestone%3Av0.1 Overview Excluding merges, 2 authors have pushed 56 commits to master and 56 commits to all branches.

qutebrowser still needs a logo!
If everything works out like planned, qutebrowser v0.1 will be released on Sunday. However, we still need a logo! I'd suck to release v0.1 with some generic logo...

qutebrowser v0.1 released!
Hi, Exactly a year after the first commit[1] I'm proud to announce qutebrowser v0.1 has been released! qutebrowser is a keyboard-driven, vim-like browser based on PyQt5 and QtWebKit - similiar to projects like Vimperator/Pentadactyl, dwb, luakit, and others. More information about qutebrowser is available at www.qutebrowser.org Downloads are available at [2]. I originally started with qutebrowser because it was announced dwb (my favourite browser at the time) was unmaintained[3] and I was unsatisfied with existing alternatives. A year later, I feel like the existing functionality is more than enough for it to be used as a daily driver - and I as well as several other people already do so. The following features are already available: - All the basic functionality you'd expect (i.e. browsing, tabs, javascript, flash support, etc.) - Modal, vim-like input scheme. - Cross-platform support (Linux, Windows, OS X) - Adblocking via /etc/hosts-like files. - Hinting (selecting links via keyboard) - Downloads - quickmarks (bookmarks with a label) - Userscripts (e.g. shellscripts writing commands to a FIFO) - Basic completion for commands, settings and quickmarks Support is available in #qutebrowser on Freenode via IRC, or on the mailinglist at qutebrowser@lists.qutebrowser.org (see [4]). I'd be happy to hear about your thoughts and feature requests either via the above channels, or via the issue tracker at [5]. Thanks to the following contributors: - longneck - rikn00 - Brian Jackson - Mathias Fussenegger - Johannes Altmanninger - Peter Vilim - Martin Zimmermann - WOFall - regines I also want to thank everyone who tested qutebrowser before this release and provided their valuable input and bugreports.

This week's qutebrowser updates
A few hours late this time, as I really had to get some sleep yesterday when I remembered I should write this :P First of all, the big news: qutebrowser v0.1 has been released[1]! v0.1.1 will probably follow somewhen in the next few days, after the bugs[2] found in v0.1 have been fixed. I also posted about qutebrowser on reddit[3][4][5], with great success: 7'800 views from 2'400 visitors on the Github repos, and more than 100 people who cloned the repo. Also, a week ago, Qt 5.4 has been released[6]. This release comes with a lot of bugfixes related to qutebrowser/QtWebKit, e.g. the segfault on flash videos has been fixed. It also fixes the POODLE vulnerability[7][8] by turning off SSLv3, so I urge everyone to upgrade. My packages with debugging symbols have been updated[9]. The modified PKGBUILDs now live in a separate git repository[10]. Without further ado, here are the updates for the past week - it's quite a bit as I basically worked full-time on qutebrowser for 5 days :D Overview Excluding merges, 3 authors have pushed 70 commits to master and 70 commits to all branches. On master, 161 files have changed and there have been 15,269 additions and 11,081 deletions. (note: these large numbers are because a lot of files have been moved) 2 Pull requests merged by 2 people 34 Issues closed by 1 person 24 Issues created by 3 people https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/pulse/weekly Features - Add a :quickmark-del command to delete quickmarks. - Add hint target 'run' to execute a command based on a hint URL. Thanks to Johannes Altmanninger for this contribution! - Add a qutebrowser icon. Thanks to WOFall for designing the icon! - Add a cheatsheet picture. Thanks to regines for all the help with doing this! Improvements - The escaping of = as in the config has been removed, as this shouldn't be needed anymore now that keybindings are in a separate config. - Make init_venv.py more reliable on Windows. - Various updates to the docs. - Reduce URL width in statusbar if the commandline width increases. - Add "Open" and "Retry" menu entries to downloads. - Don't split arguments to :bind/:repeat/:later/:set-cmd-text to make them easier to use. - Do reporting from crash dialog async in background. - Also use the src html attribute in addition to href to resolve URLs. Thanks to Johannes Altmanninger for this contribution! Bugfixes - Fix a rare exception related to downloads. - Fix config interpolation with non-default values. - Fix the text in the statusbar when e.g. entering insert mode while in passthrough mode. - Save files like the config atomically, so no data gets destroyed if there is an error while writing it. - Fix exception when closing a tab with failed downloads. - Handle cookies/cache/command history correctly in por^H^Hrivate browsing mode. - Set a minimum height for the statusbar. - Fix width calculating of tabs. - Fix checking for errors when a page is loaded. - Handle exceptions regarding file-handling. - Create inexistent paths when a config file gets written. - Fix un-hiding of hints. - Fix updating of completion when the text length is unchanged. - Handle quotes in split=False commands correctly. - Handle flags with args correctly with split=False. - Fix starting without a config. - Fix an exception when using hints with an invalid command. - Fix a source of segfaults when clicking links or closing tabs after hinting. - Fix whitespace stripping with split=False commands (e.g. :quickmark-load and tabbing) - Allow non-ASCII characters in keychains. - Fix updating of scroll position with gg/G/etc. - Fix loading of renamed config sections (currently "permissions"/"content") - Fix displaying of section/option config validation error message. - Fix an exception when using aliased commands. - Fix an exception when using :zoom with an argument. Under the hood -- - Replace IOErrors by OSErrors. - Rename a lot of files. - Add missing files to MANIFEST.in - Lots of other small cleanups. - Add some tests for config loading.

The Archlinux packages aren't updated yet, but the snapshot they use doesn't differ significantly from the final version, and I've already marked the packages as out-of-date. My packages with debugging symbols will be updated as soon as the Archlinux ones are. For Windows users, qutebrowser v0.1.1 which should be released today or tomorrow will ship with Qt/PyQt 5.4. Florian - Forwarded message from Phil Thompson - PyQt v5.4 has been released. This includes full support for Qt v5.4.0 including the new QtWebChannel and QtWebEngineWidgets modules, and the restored QtXml module. The Windows installers do not include the QtWebEngineWidgets module as WebEngine required MSVC2013 and Python3 requires MSVC2010. Qt has been built with the new dynamic OpenGL option so PyOpenGL should work again for most people.

This week's qutebrowser updates
Heya! Last week I didn't think about sending an update mail because I was at the annual CCC congress in Hamburg and busy with releasing v0.1.1: https://lists.schokokeks.org/pipermail/qutebrowser/2014-December/29.html If you're still on v0.1 (or older...) you should update! You can check your current version using :open qute:version. A lot has happened in the past two weeks though! Also, it's mind-blowing how many people have contributed lately - you're all awesome! I hope I didn't forget anyone in the logs below. Overview (for the past week, because Github doesn't let me view this for two weeks...) Excluding merges, 7 authors have pushed 28 commits to master and 31 commits to all branches. On master, 147 files have changed and there have been 450 additions and 311 deletions. 6 Pull requests merged by 6 people 1 Pull request proposed by 1 person 16 Issues closed by 2 people 6 Issues created by 1 person https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/pulse/weekly Features - User is now asked whether to overwrite an existing file with downloads. Thanks to Joel Torstensson for this contribution! - Add an -f option to :reload to reload without cache. Thanks to HalosGhost for this contribution! - Pass more information (QUTE_MODE, QUTE_SELECTED_TEXT, QUTE_SELECTED_HTML, QUTE_USER_AGENT) to userscripts. Improvements - Rewrite of the way nested keyboard modes (e.g. clicking an input field while a prompt is active) are handled because the previous behaviour was too complicated and buggy. Now there's only one active mode, and insert mode on click is disabled as long as we're not in normal mode. - Give keyboard focus back to web view after leaving prompt mode. - Set the window icon to the qutebrowser logo. - Disable alias completion for now (not too important and needs more work to work properly) - Add a fullscreen keybinding. Thanks to Joel Torstensson for this contribution! - Remove hosts-file.net from default block lists (too many false-positives). - Add a :search command in addition to "/foo" so it's more visible and can be used from scripts. Thanks to Johannes Altmanninger for this contribution! - Various documentation improvements. Thanks to Regina Hug, Helen Sherwood-Taylor Martin Zimmermann and John ShaggyTwoDope Jenkins for their contributions! - Small crash dialog/log improvements (grey out report button, move debug log to bottom) - Expand ~ to the users home directory with :run-userscript. - Improve the userscript runner on Linux/OS X by using QSocketNotifier. - Don't add debug log to crash reports by default in private browsing mode. - Add luakit-like gt/gT keybindings to cycle through tabs. Thanks to Thiago Barroso Perrotta for this contributon! Bugfixes - Display IPC error as warning instead as exception. - Fix AttributeError on config changes with old Qt versions (e.g. on Ubuntu Trusty) - Fix exception when showing a filename question for an already cancelled download. - Make qutebrowser work even if started with an invalid working directory. - Handle :restart correctly with Python eggs. - Fix an exception in the completion with certain input. - Fix setting of QWebSettings with an empty string. - Fix crash with invalid ShellCommand setting values (e.g. general->editor). - Fix segfault when refreshing/navigating away from pages while a prompt (SSL errors, javascript prompt, etc.) is open. - Fix an invalid value in the default config (ooops!). Thanks to Matthias Lisin for this contribution! - Fix exception when downloading files with chars not encodable in the system's filesystem encoding (e.g. UTF-8 with LANG=C). - Fix hints->uppercase option.

qutebrowser v0.1.2 released!
Hi,
this release was already made past Saturday, but I didn't post an
annoucement yet as I was sick in bed over the past few days...
v0.1.2 is a bugfix-only release, with the bugfixes since v0.1.1
cherry-picked so they get out faster to people using non-git packages.
v0.2 will hopefully follow soon with some new features!
These are the changes since v0.1.1:
* Fix rare exception when a key is pressed shorly after opening a
window
* Fix exception with certain invalid URLs like http:foo:0
* Work around Qt bug which renders checkboxes on OS X unusable
* Fix exception when a local files can't be read in :adblock-update
* Hide 2 more Qt warnings.
* Add !important to hint CSS so websites don't override the hint look
* Make init_venv.py work with multiple sip .so files.
* Fix splitting with certain commands with an empty argument (""/'').
* Uncheck sending of debug log by default when private browsing is on.
* Fix uppercase hints.
* Fix segfaults if another page is loaded while a prompt is open (SSL,
javascript, ...)
* Fix exception with invalid ShellCommand config values.
* Add SSL info to version info.
* Replace unencodable chars (filesystem encoding) in download
filenames.
* Remove hosts-file.net from blocker default lists.
* Fix user-stylesheet setting with an empty value.
Thanks to Error 800 and Matthias Lisin for contributing bugfixes for
this release!
Florian

This week's qutebrowser updates
Hi! Another longer update as I was sick last week. There wasn't that much happening lately, but there were some infrastructure/buildbot-related changes I'll mention at the end. There was also v0.1.2 released on the 7th, which is quite stable. Here I'll just mention the updates since v0.1.2 was released - see https://lists.schokokeks.org/pipermail/qutebrowser/2015-January/33.html for the rest. Again: If you want bleeding-edge, stay on master. v0.1.2 is just master without the new features basically. There are still 6 pullrequests open - most of them are simple, but I plan to look at them after the WIP-change you see under infrastructure (updating pylint) is done. Sorry for the delay! I was a bit confused by the logs and branches, so I hope I didn't forget anyone! Overview (for the past week, because Github doesn't let me view this for two weeks...) Excluding merges, 4 authors have pushed 17 commits to master and 27 commits to all branches. On master, 16 files have changed and there have been 201 additions and 78 deletions. 3 Pull requests proposed by 3 people 6 Issues closed by 2 people 4 Issues created by 1 person https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/pulse/weekly Features - Add possibility to display warnings in the statusbar and to deprecate commands. - Merge :run-userscripts into :spawn (with new --userscript option) and deprecate it. Improvements - Show default value in the completion. Thanks to Peter Vilim for this contribution! - Various README/documentation improvements. - Save contact address in error report dialog. Bugfixes - Remove old colors->tabs.separator option which was unused. - Fix crash when the config is binary garbage (i.e. invalid unicode) Checks/Infrastructure - - Added an OS X buildbot. Big thanks to: - Christian Vogler for letting me use his Mac for this for free. - feuermurmel for helping with debugging a nasty OS X virtualenv issue. - The Chaos Computer Club Zurich hackerspace for hosting the Mac for free. - WIP: Updating pylint to a more recent version for the checks. - Make sure the right versio of the checkers run on all platforms when init_venv.py is used with run_checks.py. -- http://www.the-compiler.org | m...@the-compiler.org (Mail/XMPP) GPG: 916E B0C8 FD55 A072 | http://the-compiler.org/pubkey.asc I love long mails! | http://email.is-not-s.ms/ pgpU6ob8khLg1.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: qutebrowser crash reports
Hi, (Cc-ing this to the list because I'd like some discussion and ideas about this. For people who have already spoken out about the confusing crash dialog issue - I hear you, I just want to hear more opinions an am unsure about what's best) * Doug Stone-Weaver [2015-01-16 01:58:36 -0800]: > Good question - do you generally follow up with ALL crash reports? I'd like to, but maybe one out of twenty has contact information. Let's say the distribution of crash reports looks roughly like this, at least right now with v0.1.2 which is quite stable. - 5% real qutebrowser problems which need to be fixed. Those are usually easy, the exception and debug log gives me all information I need. I'd still like to follow-up with people and at least tell them the github issue link, so they can subscribe. But this is like 1 report by week, and I don't expect it to increase much, unless I fsck up something. - 50% segfaults because of distributions like Debian/Ubuntu which are still on an older Qt version. I'd like to tell people it's not actually a qutebrowser problem, and they should please wait for their distribution to upgrade. - 10% segfaults which could somehow be worked around in qutebrowser, but I don't have any info, so I can't. The debug log on segfaults usually only says "qt_mainloop", so I don't know *anything*, but I'd desperatly like to fix the problem. - 35% issues in qutebrowser which are already fixed, but people didn't upgrade for months. I'd like to tell them to do. > I was expecting my second crash to just get lumped in with the first (if > I'm remembering correctly and the stacks where the same), so I didn't > think you'd need more info, hence I didn't expect the email. > > If you're planning to follow up with everyone who hits a crash and > submits a report (at least for now :))... here are some super subjective > thoughts on what might have made me expect an email.

Maybe some A/B testing :) - just kidding. People usually submit neither, or both. Most of the time neither. Right now, the "OK" button being a report if you don't pay attention kinda tricks them into reporting bugs even if they don't want to - but in case of exceptions those are useful as well. See the first point in the issue above - it'd stop people from accidentally reporting info they don't want to, but I'm afraid I'll also lose many useful reports if users really make a choice between reporting and not. What do you think?

Updating to latest Qt might fix this problem." Since "crash is in mainloop AND Qt is out-of-date" is a really good indicator for an useless crash report, I plan to not display the crash report dialog at all. More something like "qutebrowser was restarted after a fatal crash caused by the Qt library. Your distribution is using an outdated version of Qt. Unfortunately, the only way to fix it is to wait until they have updated." or so, without the ability to report. > Another thing would be to write a document which describes most common types > of crashes and what a user can do about them. Maybe something like you wrote > in the cc'd email. And link to this document in crash dialog. Hm, I like that idea. I wonder how many people will read that though, given the big count of reports with *no info at all* at the moment. I guess a surprising crash just isn't the right time for reading a document about how to report crashes. :-/ But it'd probably be useful in general to link people to - I opened a separate issue: https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/issues/480 > When I first sent a crash report with my email address I was a bit surprised > it ended up on public web page. I think it would be nice to keep contact > information private or tell the user about this in the crash dialog. Huh, I think the crash dialog mentioned the reports being public. Maybe I'm wrong, or this got lost in the first redesign I did. There are basically two reasons they are public: - I already had the pastebin set up, and didn't think there would be so many reports at the time I set it up, so I just used that. - Sometimes I just dump the URL into an issue without much more information. If someone wants to help fixing the bug, it'd make sense for them to be able to see the report. Or in general, it'd be confusing if reports linked in public issues needed an account :-/ But yeah - given the amount of "real" issues is going down (and hopefully will stay down when more tests are running), maybe I should spend more time opening issues with any *relevant* information from the full report, and making it private. I also opened an issue: https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/issues/481 I probably have to set up a separate pastebin for qutebrowser reports. I guess that'd make sense anyways.

Right now I just can use a pastebin. I don't want to implement my own server-side thing, I prefer to work on qutebrowser. And debug logs could have enough sensitive information for them to be private.

This week's qutebrowser updates
Heyho! This was quite a productive week, interrupted quickly by my laptop battery suddenly dropping to only 20 minutes per charge. Fortunately I could get a new one quickly, and now got over 4 hours per charge :) Thanks to the people who donated after me venting about my battery in IRC - I won't name you here, but you know who you are! <3 Also I'd like your opinion on converting the config format to YAML: https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/issues/499 - do you like it? Do you think it'll be worth the effort? But now let's take a look at what happened this week: Overview Excluding merges, 1 author has pushed 32 commits to master and 32 commits to all branches. On master, 35 files have changed and there have been 771 additions and 170 deletions. 10 Issues closed by 1 person 3 Issues created by 2 people https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/pulse/weekly Features - Add a new ui -> window-title-format config to configure how the window title should look. - Clean up and refactoring of the save logic for config/state: - Only save files if modified (e.g. don't overwrite the config if it was edited outside of qutebrowser and nothing was changed in qutebrowser) - Save things (cookies, config, quickmark) periodically all 15 seconds (time can be changed with the general -> auto-save-interval option) - Record page history to disk. Currently the history is only saved to ~/.local/share/qutebrowser/history but not used anywhere (except in segfault report dialogs), but that means when introducing completion for history somewhen in the feature we'll already have some history. Improvements - Only resize completion when it's shown - this is probably a small performance improvement when resizing the window. - Hide ad iframes completely instead of showing an error page in them. - Don't open relative file paths with :open, only with commandline arguments. Bugfixes - Fix restoring of command widget when there's an error while entering a command. - Fix completion size/position issues with ui -> hide-statusbar turned on. - Garbage-collect networkmanagers correctly when downloads were running in a tab which got closed. - Fix statusbar quickly popping up as dedicated window on start. - Fix segfault when opening the context menu and then closing the tab. - Fix back/forward not working on pages where ads in iframes were blocked (e.g. Reddit) - Fix for hint labels not being drawn on pages with a very high z-index (e.g. the top bar with search on Youtube) - Fix for exception when a download error/cancel occurs while the question whether to overwrite an existing file is asked. - Fix for exception when entering a term with spaces with general -> auto-search set to false. -- http://www.the-compiler.org | m...@the-compiler.org (Mail/XMPP) GPG: 916E B0C8 FD55 A072 | http://the-compiler.org/pubkey.asc I love long mails! | http://email.is-not-s.ms/ pgpmETgX91nVs.pgp Description: PGP signature
This week's qutebrowser updates
Heyho, time for another update! Some small bugfixes and features here-and-there, but I'm mostly busy with the sessions branch: https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/tree/sessions I hope to get this merged this week - there's already good progress, a session round-trip (saving/loading) already works for tabs and history. For a long while I thought this wouldn't be possible because QtWebKit only lets us load history from a binary blob (serialisation format). Thanks to https://github.com/OtterBrowser/otter-browser I discovered it's possible to reverse-engineer that binary protocol easily, and thus convert a human-readable history to a binary to load: https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/blob/9bdf40d364701f8e0d0590fd248a31f7603de025/qutebrowser/browser/tabhistory.py#L88-L142 But now back to the rest which happened this week :) Overview Excluding merges, 2 authors have pushed 21 commits to master and 32 commits to all branches.

qutebrowser v0.1.3 released!
Hi, I just released v0.1.3 which fixes a security issue and some other bugs. Security issue -- Unfortunately passwords with HTTP authentification (i.e. the blue input in the status bar) were logged in the debug log. This means it's retrievable by the user by opening qute:log, and it will be sent in crash reports if the user leaves the "send a debug log" option checked. Let me explain how this happened - I took care to not log passwords if possible, e.g. keyboard input in insert mode is *not* logged. In this case however, this happened because the widget which currently has keyboard focus gets logged, to debug key input issues. Usernames and passwords were leaked because the repr() (debug representation) of the prompt widget also logged its text: modeman:_eventFilter_keypress:204 handled: False, forward-unbound-keys: auto, passthrough: True, is_non_alnum: False --> filter: False (focused: ) This issue existed since eb5527f897de74187ef748502b0fadd122f23f42 pushed on 28th October 2014, i.e. all released versions are affected. It was fixed in c2f9cae770360848ca33083e628de79d8d0a1bc3 (master) and b44d7c0b846670ea27cb6dab321f50ba48e6eb42 (v0.1.x): --- a/qutebrowser/misc/miscwidgets.py +++ b/qutebrowser/misc/miscwidgets.py @@ -43,7 +43,7 @@ class MinimalLineEditMixin: self.setAttribute(Qt.WA_MacShowFocusRect, False) def __repr__(self): -return utils.get_repr(self, text=self.text()) +return utils.get_repr(self) There were 4 crash logs with leaked passwords in them, which are now deleted. Unfortunately they were all without contact information. I'm really sorry for this, and hope people will update soon.

This week's qutebrowser updates
Heya,
whoa, it's Tuesday already! So like every Monday, here are the weekly
updates! :P
First of all, as a reminder: qutebrowser v0.1.3 has been released last
Thursday - it fixes a security issue where passwords were accidentally
logged to the debug log:
https://lists.schokokeks.org/pipermail/qutebrowser/2015-February/47.html
If you haven't updated yet, you should! If you're using the git
repository, of course you can keep using that, the bug has fixed there
as well.
Other than that, there are definitely a few cool new features
(sessions!) new this week :) Note sessions have a new dependency,
PyYAML (probably named python3-yaml or so). If you're using
init_venv.py, you should delete your .venv folder and re-run
init_venv.py.

GitHub and qutebrowser
Hi! Since today, GitHub randomly decided to treat qutebrowser (and any other QtWebKit browser - tried with QupZilla, rekonq and Otter) as an old version of Safari. It then displays a "Please note that GitHub no longer supports old versions of Safari." warning bar. However, that's not all - they also break a lot of functionality like switching branches, graph view, or editing labels/milestones for issues. I contacted GitHub support about this, and got this back: Thanks for your feedback and I am sorry for the trouble. I can't promise this will be resolved, but I have sent your feedback to our team for them to consider it. While this isn't too bad: If you're using GitHub in qutebrowser, can you please also reach out to their support at https://github.com/contact and tell them you're having trouble? If you need a quick workaround, you can do something like: :set network user-agent "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/538.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/560.1 Version/8.0.3" Then everything works like expected... As soon as I looked at [1] and can actually specify a custom user agent without hardcoded information, I'll probably add the Version/... part by default, unless GitHub manages to fix this until then.

Fwd: Re: Github suddenly broken with QtWebKit browsers
Fortunately GitHub decided to fix the issue, so everything should work as expected again, without me having to add dirty hacks to qutebrowser: - Forwarded message from Mislav Marohnić - Hi Florian, sorry that our changes to user agent parsing caused your experience of GitHub on QtWebKit browsers to get degraded. We followed your advice and now serve JavaScript to QtWebKit browsers even if there is no "Version/X.Y" number present. Things should be getting back to the way there were before. If not, let us know. Thanks! - End forwarded message - Thanks a lot for everyone who helped by contacting the support as well! :) Florian -- http://www.the-compiler.org | m...@the-compiler.org (Mail/XMPP) GPG: 916E B0C8 FD55 A072 | http://the-compiler.org/pubkey.asc I love long mails! | http://email.is-not-s.ms/ pgp_KiTEcv2BS.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: [PATCH] rocker-gestures

I'd be okay with merging this - though I think the code can be
simplified a bit: A QMouseEvent has a button() and a buttons() method:
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qmouseevent.html#button
Returns the button that caused the event.
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qmouseevent.html#buttons
Returns the button state when the event was generated. [...]
For mouse press and double click events this includes the button
that caused the event.
Couldn't you just check if button() is Qt.LeftButton and buttons() is
Qt.LeftButton | Qt.RightButton, instead of saving the button state
yourself?
Also there are some other issues and nitpicks - though for the minor
stuff, if you prefer to not deal with my perfectionism that's
perfectly fine, I can also do those changes for you :)

is_rocker_gesture = (e.button() in (Qt.LeftButton, Qt.RightButton) and
config.get('input', 'rocker-gestures') and
self.right_pressed and self.left_pressed)
if e.button() in (Qt.XButton1, Qt.XButton2) or is_rocker_gesture:
Otherwise this if gets rather long to grasp.

Testers needed for history completion
Hi! @toofar on github and I started working on history completion, and it seems to work pretty well by now! However I want some feedback (especially on performance) before merging this. Can you please test the histcomplete branch? When you got the git repo, you can simply do 'git pull' and 'git checkout histcomplete'. Then check how using 'o' feels, and if the performance is acceptable. If it is, :set completion web-history-max-items -1 then restart qutebrowser and test again. Things which potentially could be sluggish: - Opening the completion the first time with 'o'. - Using 'o' after the first time. - Using 'o' and typing (without using the completion) - Scrolling the completion (with tab and scrollbar/mousewheel) Also, it'd be good to know what this says for you: sort ~/.local/share/qutebrowser/history | cut -d' ' -f2 | uniq | wc -l See https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/pull/547 for discussions.

Definitely a much-requested feature - now @toofar/Jimmy started implementing it and I did some improvements on top of that. Thanks! This adds some new options: completion -> timestamp-format: The format used to display the history timestamps. completion -> web-history-max-items: How many history items to show in the completion. completion -> cmd-history-max-items: Renamed from history-length. Improvements - If an SSL error is raised multiple times with the same error/certificate/host/scheme/port, the user is only asked once. - Add a --rapid option to :hint. The rapid/rapid-win targets are now deprecated, and --rapid can be used as well with run/hover/userscript/spawn. - Add a hints -> scatter option, which (when turned off) distributes the hints sequentially (like dwb) instead of scattering their positions (like Vimium). - Add an -f argument to :bind to overwrite the old binding. - Add some documentation about how to write userscripts: https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/blob/master/doc/userscripts.asciidoc - Various performance improvements for the completion. - Handle things like "Foo::Bar" as search term, not as URL. Thanks to Patric Schmitz for this contribution! - Remove default search engines so things like ":open ddg foo" or ":open google sucks" works as expected. Thanks to error800 for this contribution! - Use alternating row colors in copletion. This adds a new colors -> completion.alternate-bg option. - Ensure the user only sets a family (no size/weight) for the fonts -> web-family-* settings. - Various performance improvements when qutebrowser is idle. When unused qutebrowser now shouldn't waste any CPU cycles anymore. Except on Windows, where there still has to be a timer polling for signals, because... Windows. Bugfixes - Fix an exception which occured when getting signals for already deleted tabs. - Force saving when using :save even with auto-save-config turned off. - Highlight text case-insensitively in completon. - Scroll completion to top when showing it. - Fix fonts not being anti-aliased (or possibly wrong in other ways) under some circumstances. - Fix package names for manual compilation in stacktrace.asciidoc. - Ignore empty lines in quickmarks/history.

qutebrowser v0.1.4 released!
Hi, I just released v0.1.4 which adds workarounds for two security/privacy-related Qt issues and backports some other bugs. Windows builds will be delayed a bit (aka. my Windows VM wants to install updates), but everything else is uploaded. Privacy-related Qt bug -- !! TL;DR: Please update and delete your !! ~/.cache/qutebrowser/WebpageIcons.db if you used private browsing !! mode for stuff you don't want on your hard disk. Back in January, a pull request was opened[1], which apparently fixed an issue with URLs getting written to the favicon in private browsing mode for the reporter. I was unable to reproduce the exact behaviour the reporter was seeing and the proposed fix was incomplete, which is why I decided to look at it again later. I was reminded of that bug when it got big in the media[2] the exact same bug is present in Safari. As this sounded awfully similiar, I decided to investigate. I'm deeply sorry for not taking action earlier and dismissing this too fast - I misjudged the scope of this issue, and this definitely isn't how I want to handle privacy-relevant bugs. After coordinating with Qt's security contact I ported the upstream fix[3] to QtWebKit[4] where it's currently integrating in their CI. I also opened a bug[5] Debian BTS so this hopefully gets backported to older releases in Debian as well. I extended and applied the workaround[6] from the pull request (thanks to sbinix!), and decided to release v0.1.4 because of this. If you're using the git version, please update to the latest master where the workaround is applied as well. If you visited pages in private browsing mode which you'd rather not see recorded on your disk, I recommend deleting ~/.cache/qutebrowser/WebpageIcons.db (e.g. using shred[7]) so you can be sure there are no traces left behind. The second noteworthy fix is disabling of SSL ciphers commonly regarded as insecure (< 128bit). This change was made upstream with Qt 5.3, so this workaround only affets people using Qt 5.2, e.g. on Ubuntu Trusty.

This week's qutebrowser updates
Heyho, Another week without v0.2, but with some other updates and progress towards v0.2! There were some big changes about how virtualenvs and testing is managed: - init_venv.py and run_checks.py got deleted and replaced by tox[1]. If you used init_venv.py before, you now have to install tox and run "tox -e mkvenv" instead. - "Adopt pytest month"[2] starts tomorrow and qutebrowser got accepted and got two helpers (see [3]). Thanks in advance to @nicoddemus and @hackebrot for hopefully making creating tests for qutebrowser easier and more fun! :) [1] http://tox.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ [2] http://pytest.org/latest/adopt.html [3] https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/issues/550 Overview Excluding merges, 3 authors have pushed 40 commits to master and 59 commits to all branches.

This week's qutebrowser updates
Heyho,
Nope, no v0.2 yet - but very soon! (tm)
There are three open issues for v0.2 now, and all of them should be
easy to fix:
https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+milestone%3Av0.2
Soo... v0.2 this week hopefully. Fingers crossed!
Also, I hope I fooled some of you people with my April's fools joke!
Sorry, but I couldn't resist! :P
For the ones who missed it: For people who updated on the 31st of
March (when I had this idea), all pages were slightly tilted:
http://qutebrowser.org/tmp/april.png
Overview
Excluding merges, 4 authors have pushed 92 commits to master and 118
commits to all branches. On master, 92 files have changed and there
have been 2,347 additions and 1,683 deletions.
2 Pull requests merged by 2 people

https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/pulse
Improvements
- Various improvements to :restart - it should be more robust now and
uses sessions so all state (focused tab, scroll position, etc.) gets
remembered.
- Sessions starting with '_' are now considered "internal" and are
disallowed when using the :session-* commands.
- Jump to last instead of first item when pressing Shift-Tab the first
time in the completion.
- Add tab index display to the statusbar.
Thanks to Franz Fellner for this contribution!
- Automatically correct keybindings to deprecated commands in the
config.
- Ignore quotes with maxsplit-commands (:open, :quickmark-load, etc.)
and don't quote arguments for those commands in the completions.
This also means some commands needed adjustments:
- Clear search when :search without arguments is given.
(:search "" will now search for the literal text "")
- Add -s/--space argument to :set-cmd-text (as :set-cmd-text "foo "
will now set the literal text "foo ")
- Add 'cd' shortcut to clean downloads.
- Various improvements on how sessions are handled:
- Add a -c/--current argument to :session-save to save the last
loaded session.
- Add a -t/--temp argument to :session-load to not set the last
loaded session.
- Make the default session name configurable with a new
general -> session-default-name setting. The default (empty)
means loading of the last saved session.
- Add tab-bg{,-silent} as possible value for new-instance-open-target
to open a background tab.
- Keep progress bar height fixed when the statusbar is multiline.
- Ignore ;; for splitting with some commands.
Bugfixes
- Fixed handling of key release events (e.g. for javascript) when
holding a key and pressing a second one.
- Fix for exception when a message is pending and a non-mainwindow
window gets focused.
- Update URL completion when quickmarks are added/deleted.
- Refuse to add empty URLs to the history.
It seems (at least for one user) QtWebKit added empty URLs which
caused the history to fail to load - so if that happens we ignore
it.
- Fix exception when using :set-cmd-text with an empty argument.
- Don't double ampersands in window titles.
- Fix search engine documentation (it still used the old !bang
syntax).
- Don't make default config a mutable global.
This bug didn't do any harm inside qutebrowser as there is only one
config object, but was discovered in the unit tests.
Under the hood
--
- Use hunter[1] for line tracing instead of a selfmade solution.
[1] https://github.com/ionelmc/python-hunter
- Various spelling fixes in comments.
- Added a checker for words which I often spell wrong.
- Convert some tests to pytest.
Thanks to Raphael Pierzina for this contribution (as part of the
adopt pytest month).
- Pass a parent to most (all?) QObjects, which might fix some
segfaults on shutdown.
- Various fixes and improvements for docs.
- Various small refactorings.

qutebrowser v0.2.0 released!
Hi! From one point of view, qutebrowser v0.2.0 is just the same as qutebrowser v0.1.0: It took a lot longer than I thought it would ;) But now it's done, and qutebrowser v0.2.0 is released! Other than the time it took, v0.2.0 definitely isn't the same - there are tons of new features such as sessions and history completion. This is the full changelog compared to v0.1.4: Added ~ - Session support * new command `:session-load` to load a session. * new command `:session-save` to save a session. * new command `:session-delete` to delete a session. * new setting `general -> save-session` to always save the session on quit. * new setting `general -> session-default-name` to configure the session name to use if none is given. * new argument `-r`/`--restore` to specify a session to load. * new argument `-R`/`--override-restore` to not load a session even if one was saved. - New commands to manage downloads: * `:download` to download a URL or the current page. * `:download-cancel` to cancel a download. * `:download-delete` to delete a download from disk. * `:download-open` to open a finished download. * `:download-remove` to remove a download from the list. `:download-remove --all` or the new 'cd' keybinding can be used to clear all finished downloads. - History completion * New option `completion -> timestamp-format` to set the format used to display the history timestamps. * New option `completion -> web-history-max-items` to configure how many history items to show in the completion. * The option `completion -> history-length` for the command history got renamed to `cmd-history-max-items`. - Better save logic for the config/state: * Only save files if modified (e.g. don't overwrite the config if it was edited outside of qutebrowser and nothing was changed in qutebrowser). * Save things (cookies, config, quickmarks, ...) periodically all 15 seconds (time can be changed with the `general -> auto-save-interval` option). - Opera-like mouse rocker gestures * New option `input -> rocker-gestures`. When turned on, the history can be navigated back/forward by holding a mouse button and pressing the other one. - New `-f` option for `:reload` to reload and bypass the cache. - Pass more information (`QUTE_MODE`, `QUTE_SELECTED_TEXT`, `QUTE_SELECTED_HTML`, `QUTE_USER_AGENT`, `QUTE_HTML`, `QUTE_TEXT`) to userscripts. - New `--userscript` option to `:spawn` (which deprecates `:run-userscript`). - Ability to toggle a value to `:set` by appending a `!` to the value. - New options to hide the tab-/statusbar: * `tabs -> hide-always` for the tabbar * `ui -> hide-statusbar` for the statusbar - New options to configure how the tab/window titles should look: * `tabs -> title-format` for the tabbar * `ui -> window-title-format` for the window title - HTML5 Geolocation/Notification support: * New option `content -> geolocation` to permanently turn the geolocation off. * New option `content -> notifications` to permanently turn notifications off. - New options to disable javascript prompts/alerts: * `content -> ignore-javascript-prompt` to turn off prompts. * `content -> ignore-javascript-alerts` to turn off alerts. - Two new options to customize the behavior of hints: * `hints -> min-chars` to set minimum number of chars in hints. * `hints -> scatter` which when turned off distributes the hints sequentially (like dwb) instead of scattering their positions (like Vimium). - Make it possible to use `:open -[twb]` without url. * New option `general -> default-page` to set the page to be opened when doing that. - New `input -> partial-timeout` option to clear partial keystrings. - New option `completion -> download-path-suggestion` to configure what to show in the completion for downloads. - Queue messages shown in unfocused windows and show them when the window is focused. * New option `ui -> message-unfocused` to disable this behavior. - New `--relaxed-config` argument which ignores unknown options. - New `:tab-detach` command to open the current tab in a new window. - Zooming via Ctrl-Mousewheel. * New option `input -> mouse-zoom-divider` to control how much the page is zoomed when rotating the wheel. - New option (`content -> host-blocking-enabled`) to enable/disable host blocking. - New values `tab-bg`/`tab-bg-silent` for `new-instance-open-target` to open a background tab. - New `ui -> downloads-position` setting to move the downloads to the bottom. - New `ui -> hide-mouse-cursor` option to hide the mouse cursor inside qutebrowser. - New argument `-s` for qutebrowser to set a temporary config option. - New argument `-p` for the `:set` command to print the new value. - New `--rapid` option to `:hint`. The `rapid`/`rapid-win` targets are now deprecated, and `--rapid`
qutebrowser v0.2.1 released!
And another follow-up: The manpage (qutebrowser.1.asciidoc) was missing in the v0.2.0 release. Since this'd break distro packages and I can't overwrite existing files on PyPI, make this v0.2.1... :-/ Florian -- http://www.the-compiler.org | m...@the-compiler.org (Mail/XMPP) GPG: 916E B0C8 FD55 A072 | http://the-compiler.org/pubkey.asc I love long mails! | http://email.is-not-s.ms/ pgp76bdptx5ao.pgp Description: PGP signature

This week's qutebrowser updates

This week's qutebrowser updates
Hi,
This has been a crazy week with many contributions! :)
Thanks a lot again to Carpetsmoker and antonyo for them!
I've been busy with writing more tests, and reviewing PRs and issues,
but the amount of contributions is probably at a record high :)
It seems people would like a new release[1] - I wanted to do so only
after tests/refactoring/config migration, but since that'll still take
a while I'll probably cut a new release when the open contributions
are in (or at least the ones expected to be done soon).

Added
-
- :scroll-page now has --{top,bottom}-navigate options so a key can be
bound to scroll down and automatically load the next page.
- Return is now bound to a new :select-follow command, which follows
the link currently selected (e.g. via /searching).
- There's a new ui -> modal-js-dialog setting to use the normal modal
dialogs instead of the statusbar for javascript dialogs.
- Numpad enter now should work everywhere where Return does.
- New setting colors -> webpage.bg to set the color for websites
without a background color set.
Changed
---
- Temporary files/directories now use a qutebrowser-editor- and
qutebrowser-basedir- prefix.
- Some QXcbWindow warnings (e.g. on Enlightment) are now hidden.
Fixed
-
- Fix a crash when executing "qutebrowser :set" from the commandline.
Under the hood
--
- Lots of improvements related to tests.
- link_pyqt.py now only links/copies files if needed, which should
speed up repeated tox runs.
- Some small doc improvements.

Fwd: [USN-2626-1] Qt vulnerabilities
Hi, I'm actually amazed Ubuntu managed to take so long to backport those packages... IIRC, Debian, Arch (and maybe others) had already applied them for a while. The first issue is from April 2014... Gah. (Though that one seems to apply to Qt 4 only) So if you're on Ubuntu, please update (or, you know, don't use Ubuntu). Florian - Forwarded message from Marc Deslauriers - == Ubuntu Security Notice USN-2626-1 June 03, 2015 qt4-x11, qtbase-opensource-src vulnerabilities == A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 15.04 - Ubuntu 14.10 - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Summary: Qt could be made to crash or run programs as your login if it opened a specially crafted file.

Fwd: [arch-security] [ASA-201506-3] openssl: multiple issues
Hi, please update your OpenSSL to get protected against LogJam (see http://weakdh.org/ ). (I experimented with blacklisting those ciphers in qutebrowser, but the Qt API doesn't provide a way to get the DH bits used - so I decided to just wait for OpenSSL to be updated instead of blacklisting *all* DH keys). Florian - Forwarded message from Levente Polyak - Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-201506-3 = Severity: High Date: 2015-06-12 CVE-ID : CVE-2015-1788 CVE-2015-1789 CVE-2015-1790 CVE-2015-1791 CVE-2015-1792 CVE-2015-4000 Package : openssl Type: multiple issues Remote : Yes Link: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CVE Summary === The package openssl before version 1.0.2.b-1 is vulnerable to multiple issues including but not limited to man-in-the-middle via cipher downgrade, double free and denial of service. Resolution == Upgrade to 1.0.2.b-1. # pacman -Syu "openssl>=1.0.2.b-1" The problems have been fixed upstream in version 1.0.2.b. Workaround == None. Description === - CVE-2015-1788 (denial of service) When processing an ECParameters structure OpenSSL enters an infinite loop if the curve specified is over a specially malformed binary polynomial field. This can be used to perform denial of service against any system which processes public keys, certificate requests or certificates. This includes TLS clients and TLS servers with client authentication enabled. - CVE-2015-1789 (out-of-bounds read) X509_cmp_time does not properly check the length of the ASN1_TIME string and can read a few bytes out of bounds. In addition, X509_cmp_time accepts an arbitrary number of fractional seconds in the time string. An attacker can use this to craft malformed certificates and CRLs of various sizes and potentially cause a segmentation fault, resulting in a DoS on applications that verify certificates or CRLs. TLS clients that verify CRLs are affected. TLS clients and servers with client authentication enabled may be affected if they use custom verification callbacks. - CVE-2015-1790 (denial of service) The PKCS#7 parsing code does not handle missing inner EncryptedContent correctly. An attacker can craft malformed ASN.1-encoded PKCS#7 blobs with missing content and trigger a NULL pointer dereference on parsing. Applications that decrypt PKCS#7 data or otherwise parse PKCS#7 structures from untrusted sources are affected. OpenSSL clients and servers are not affected. - CVE-2015-1791 (double free) If a NewSessionTicket is received by a multi-threaded client when attempting to reuse a previous ticket then a race condition can occur potentially leading to a double free of the ticket data. - CVE-2015-1792 (denial of service) When verifying a signedData message the CMS code can enter an infinite loop if presented with an unknown hash function OID. This can be used to perform denial of service against any system which verifies signedData messages using the CMS code. - CVE-2015-4000 (cipher downgrade) A vulnerability in the TLS protocol allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to downgrade vulnerable TLS connections using ephemeral Diffie-Hellman key exchange to 512-bit export-grade cryptography. This vulnerability is known as Logjam. OpenSSL has added protection for TLS clients by rejecting handshakes with DH parameters shorter than 768 bits. This limit will be increased to 1024 bits in a future release. Impact == A remote attacker is able to perform man-in-the-middle via cipher downgrade, denial of service or possibly have other unspecified impact via various vectors.

qutebrowser v0.3.0 released!
Hi!
I'm happy to announce qutebrowser v0.3.0 was released today - with a
lot of new features and some bugfixes.
Note a breaking change for userscripts was necessary: $QUTE_HTML and
$QUTE_TEXT now contain a filename instead of the HTML/text content.
Also, if you have an userscript which could be useful for the public,
please consider contributing it to the new `misc/userscripts`
directory!
This is the full changelog compared to v0.2.1:
Added
~
- New commands `:message-info`, `:message-error` and
`:message-warning` to show messages in the statusbar, e.g. from an
userscript.
- New command `:scroll-px` which replaces `:scroll` for pixel-exact
scrolling.
- New command `:jseval` to run a javascript snippet on the current
page.
- New (hidden) command `:follow-selected` (bound to
`Enter`/`Ctrl-Enter` by default) to follow the link which is
currently selected (e.g. after searching via `/`).
- New (hidden) command `:clear-keychain` to clear a partially entered
keychain (bound to `` by default, in addition to clearing
search).
- New setting `ui -> smooth-scrolling`.
- New setting `content -> webgl` to enable/disable WebGL.
- New setting `content -> css-regions` to enable/disable support for
CSS Regions.
- New setting `content -> hyperlink-auditing` to enable/disable
support for hyperlink auditing.
- New setting `tabs -> mousewheel-tab-switching` to control mousewheel
behavior on the tab bar.
- New arguments `--datadir` and `--cachedir` to set the data/cache
location.
- New arguments `--basedir` and `--temp-basedir` (intended for
debugging) to set a different base directory for all data, which
allows multiple invocations.
- New argument `--no-err-windows` to suppress all error windows.
- New arguments `--top-navigate` and `--bottom-navigate` (`-t`/`-b`)
for `:scroll-page` to specify a navigation action (e.g.
automatically go to the next page when arriving at the bottom).
- New flag `-d`/`--detach` for `:spawn` to detach the spawned process
so it's not closed when qutebrowser is.
- New flag `-v`/`--verbose` for `:spawn` to print informations when
the process started/exited successfully.
- Many new color settings (foreground setting for every background
setting).
- New setting `ui -> modal-js-dialog` to use the standard modal
dialogs for javascript questions instead of using the statusbar.
- New setting `colors -> webpage.bg` to set the background color to
use for websites which don't set one.
- New setting `completion -> auto-open` to only open the completion
when tab is pressed (if set to false).
- New visual/caret mode (bound to `v`) to select text by keyboard.
- There are now some example userscripts in `misc/userscripts`.
- Support for Qt 5.5 and tox 2.0
Changed
~~~
- *Breaking change for userscripts:* `QUTE_HTML` and `QUTE_TEXT` for
userscripts now don't store the contents directly, and instead
contain a filename.
- The `content -> geolocation` and `notifications` settings now
support a `true` value to always allow those. However, this is *not
recommended*.
- New bindings `` (rapid), `` (foreground) and
`` (background) to switch hint modes while hinting.
- `` and numpad-enter are now bound by default for bindings
where `` was bound.
- `:hint tab` and `F` now respect the `background-tabs` setting. To
enforce a foreground tab (what `F` did before), use `:hint tab-fg`
or `;f`.
- `:scroll` now takes a direction argument
(`up`/`down`/`left`/`right`/`top`/`bottom`/`page-up`/`page-down`)
instead of two pixel arguments (`dx`/`dy`). The old form still works
but is deprecated.
- The `ui -> user-stylesheet` setting now also takes file paths
relative to the config directory.
- The `content -> cookies-accept` setting now has new `no-3rdparty`
(default) and `no-unknown-3rdparty` values to block third-party
cookies. The `default` value got renamed to `all`.
- Improved startup time by reading the webpage history while
qutebrowser is open.
- The way `:spawn` splits its commandline has been changed slightly to
allow commands with flags.
- The default for the `new-instance-open-target` setting has been
changed to `tab`.
- Sessions now store zoom/scroll-position separately for each entry.
Deprecated
~~
- `:scroll` with two pixel-arguments is now deprecated - `:scroll-px`
should be used instead.
Removed
~~~
- The `--no-crash-dialog` argument which was intended for debugging
only was removed as it's replaced by `--no-err-windows` which
suppresses all error windows.
- Support for Qt installations without SSL support was dropped.
Fixed
~
- Scrolling should now work more reliably on some pages where arrow
keys worked but `hjkl` didn't.
- Small improvements when checking if an input is an URL or not.
- Fixed wrong cursor position when completing the first item in the
completion.
- Fixed exception when using search engines with {foo} in their name.
- Fixed a bug where the same title was shown for all tabs on some

qutebrowser updates and roadmap
Heya! As you might have noticed, I stopped doing the weekly update mails recently since they were quite a bit of work I'd rather invest in writing code ;) But I think it's time for another update mail - I'm still mainly working on tests (and will probably continue to do so for a few more weeks to months), but thanks to some awesome contributors there are some great new features! The GitHub statistics for the last month are mindblowing: Excluding merges, 9 authors have pushed 374 commits to master and 401 commits to all branches. On master, 193 files have changed and there have been 17,591 additions and 11,777 deletions. 18 Pull requests merged by 7 people 4 Pull requests proposed by 3 people 30 Issues closed by 2 people 25 Issues created by 8 people Some highlights of new features - sorry if I missed something: - Antoni Boucher contributed the possibility to create bookmarks - they are similar to quickmarks, but don't have a label and store the page's title. - Antoni Boucher also contributed local directory browsing. - The column widths in the completion are now dependent on the active completion, thanks to Alexander Cogneau. - Martin Tournoij added a new network -> referer-header setting which allows you to control when the Referer header should be sent. - New settings to add padding to the tabbar and statusbar - thanks to Martin Tournoij and Icabob4 for their help with this! - Downloads now remember the last used directory - thanks to Martin Tournoij for the initial PR! - New setting to show the tabbar only when switching tabs, thanks to Artur Shaik. - New setting to not ask for the download location, thanks to Alexander Cogneau. This also enabled rapid hinting for downloads. - Many small bugfixes - thanks to Thorsten Wißmann, kingdread, Alexander Cogneau and Leon Schwalb for related contributions. - Many many many new tests - thanks to Alexander Cogneau for some recent help with them! As for my future plans/roadmap, since I get asked a lot: - More tests. There's still plenty of easy unittests to be done, and on top of that I want enough end-to-end tests where qutebrowser is running with a local HTTP server and recieving commands. - Doing some remaining bugfixes and releasing v0.4.0 somewhen in the near future. - Some refactorings which are necessary for the next point. - A QtWebEngine backend, which will make the rendering/networking part of qutebrowser essentially equal with Chromium, which comes with performance, security and stability benefits: https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/issues/666 - Ripping out all the config code and replacing it by something with some more thought (and tests) behind it: https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+milestone%3A%22config+revolution%22 https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/issues/499 - Releasing v1.0.0 - Plugin API, and refactoring a large part of qutebrowser to be plugin-based. Of course I'll also take care of pull requests along the way :) Thanks again to all contributors - around 40 of them by now. When I started with qutebrowser, I'd never have imagined this.

qutebrowser v0.4.0 released!
Hi, I'm happy to annouce the release of qutebrowser v0.4.0! While my own efforts mainly went into writing more tests, there are still some new useful features thanks to contributors. It's now possible to browse local directories, and there are many new settings to allow finer control of the UI and other things. This release also comes with two privacy-related fixes, so please upgrade! I'm still working on getting everything updated (AUR package, Windows builds), but source packages are available already. The full changelog: Added ~ - New bookmark functionality (similar to quickmarks without a name). * New command `:bookmark-add` to bookmark the current page (bound to `M`). * New command `:bookmark-load` to load a bookmark (bound to `gb`/`gB`/`wB`). - New (hidden) command `:completion-item-del` (bound to ``) to delete the current item in the completion (for quickmarks/bookmarks). - New settings `tabs -> padding` and `tabs -> indicator-tabbing` to control the size/padding of the tabbar. - New setting `ui -> statusbar-padding` to control the size/padding of the status bar. - New setting `network -> referer-header` to configure when the referer should be sent (by default it's only sent while on the same domain). - New setting `tabs -> show` which supersedes the old `tabs -> hide-*` options and has an additional `switching` option which shows tab while switching them. There's also a new `show-switching` option to configure the timeout. - New setting `storage -> remember-download-directory` to remember the last used download directory. - New setting `storage -> prompt-download-directory` to download all downloads without asking. - Rapid hinting is now also possible for downloads. - Directory browsing via `file://` is now supported. Changed ~~~ - Some developer scripts got moved to `scripts/dev/` - When downloading to a FIFO or special file, a confirmation is displayed as this might cause qutebrowser to hang. - The `:yank-selected` command now works in all modes instead of just caret mode and is not hidden anymore. - `minimal_webkit_testbrowser.py` now has a `--webengine` switch to test QtWebEngine if it's installed. - The column width percentages for the completion view now depend on the completion model. - The values for `tabs -> position` and `ui -> downloads-position` got changed from `north`/`south`/`west/`east` to `top`/`bottom`/`left`/`right`. Existing configs should be adjusted automatically. - `:tab-focus`/`gt` now behaves like `:tab-next` if no count/index is given. - The completion widget doesn't show a border anymore. - The tabbar doesn't display ugly arrows anymore if there isn't enough space for all tabs. - Some insignificant Qt warnings which were printed on OS X are now hidden. - Better support for Qt 5.5 and Python 3.5. Fixed ~ - Fixed a bug where cookies were saved despite qutebrowser being started in private browsing mode. - The local socket used for inter-process communication (opening new instances) is now ensured to only be accessible by the user on all operating systems. - Various corner cases for inter-process communication issues got fixed. - `link_pyqt.py` now should work better on untested distributions. - Fixed various corner-cases with crashes when reading invalid config values and the history file. - Fixed various corner-cases when setting text via an external editor. - Fixed potential crash when hinting a text field. - Fixed entering of insert mode when certain disabled text fields were clicked. - Fixed a crash when using `:set` with `-p` and `!` (invert value) - Downloads with unknown size are now handled correctly. - `:navigate increment/decrement` (``/``) now handles some corner-cases better. - Fixed a bug where the completion got affected by another window's completion if it was open in both windows. - Fixed a performance issue with large histories when opening previously unvisited websites. - The progress bar now doesn't cause the statusbar to change it's height anymore. - `~` is now always expanded when spawning a script. - Fixed various corner cases when opening links in an existing instance. - Fixed a race-condition causing an exception when starting qutebrowser. Removed ~~~ - The `tabs -> indicator-space` setting got removed as the new padding settings should be used instead. - The `tabs -> hide-always` and `tabs -> hide-auto` settings got merged into the new `tabs -> show` setting. Since v0.3.0, the following people have contributed to qutebrowser: - Antoni Boucher - Alexander Cogneau - Martin Tournoij - Daniel - jnphilipp - Thorsten Wißmann - Artur Shaik - zwarag - meles5 - Tim Harder - Arseniy Seroka Thank you!

qutebrowser v0.4.1 released!
Hi, I'm happy to annouce the release of qutebrowser v0.4.1! This is a bugfix-only release which (amongst other things) fixes crashes with Debian experimental and Python 3.5. Fixed ~ - Adjusted AppArmor config for the IPC changes in v0.4.0. - Fixed atime update frequency for IPC file. - Worked around a Qt issue where middle-clicking caused scrolling with a touchpad to restart at the beginning of the page. - The `completion -> web-history-max-items` setting is now also respected for items added after starting qutebrowser. - Search terms are now shared between different tabs again - Tests (a reduced subset of them) now run correctly again when DISPLAY is not set. - Fixed an issue causing qutebrowser to crash with Python 3.5 as soon as an ad was blocked. - Fixed an issue causing qutebrowser to not start with more recent Python 3.4 versions (e.g. on Debian experimental). - Fixed various `PendingDeprecationWarnings` shown with Python 3.5.

There's currently an userscript in development which integrates with 'pass': https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/pull/873 The author (which also is on this list, I believe) told me he wanted to work a bit more on it before merging, so it's not merged yet.

Those kind of things are typically bugs in QtWebKit, the underlying rendering engine - not in qutebrowser itself. What Qt version are you using? (See :open qute:version). There was an issue regarding extreme memory consumption fixed with Qt 5.4.2 - so if you're on that or something newer, I have no idea how this happened.

I plan to try that somewhen this week (I hope) and then either close that bug and wait for the next Qt release, or report the issue upstream if it still exists.

qutebrowser v0.5.0 released!
Hi,
I'm happy to annouce the release of qutebrowser v0.5.0!
This release comes with various new features, commands and settings -
such as the ability to use pdf.js to display PDF files in browser,
:download --mhtml to download a page including all ressources or
prettier error pages.
A note for packagers: qutebrowser now uses pdf.js to display PDFs if
the user enables that feature, and searches pdf.js in various common
places like /usr/share/pdf.js and /usr/share/javascript/pdf. If pdf.js
is packaged for your distribution (or you want to package it), please
add it as optional/recommended dependency.
The Windows packages are still building, but everything else should be
updated.
The full changelog:
Added
~
- Ability to preview PDFs using pdf.js in the browser if it's installed. This
is disabled by default and can be enabled using the
`content -> pdfjs-enabled` setting.
- New setting `ui -> hide-wayland-decoration` to hide the window decoration
when using wayland.
- New userscripts in `misc/userscripts`:
- `open_download` to easily open a file in your downloads folder.
- `view_in_mpv` to open a video in mpv and remove it from the page.
- `qutedmenu` and `dmenu_qutebrowser` to select URLs via dmenu
- New setting `content -> host-blocking-whitelist` to whitelist certain domains
from the adblocker.
- `{scroll_pos}` can now be used in `ui -> window-title-format` and
`tabs -> title-format`.
- New setting `general -> url-incdec-segments` to configure which segments of
the URL should be affected by `:navigate increment/decrement`.
- New `--target` argument to specify how URLs should be opened in an existing
instance.
- New setting `statusbar.url.fg.success.https` to set the foreground color for
the URL when a page was loaded via HTTPS.
- The scrollbar in the completion is now styled, and the following new options
got added:
* `completion -> scrollbar-width`
* `completion -> scrollbar-padding`
* `colors -> completion.scrollbar.fg`
* `colors -> completion.scrollbar.bg`
- New value `none` for options taking a color system so they don't display a
gradient:
* `colors -> tabs.indicator.system`
* `colors -> downloads.fg.system`
* `colors -> downloads.bg.system`
- New command `:download-retry` to retry a failed download.
- New command `:download-clear` which replaces `:download-remove --all`.
- `:set-cmd-text` has a new `--append` argument to append to the current
statusbar text.
- qutebrowser now uses `~/.netrc` if available to authenticate via HTTP.
- New `:fake-key` command to send a fake keypress to a website or to
qutebrowser.
- New `--mhtml` argument for `:download` to download a page including all
ressources as MHTML file.
- New option `tabs -> title-alignment` to change the alignment of tab titles.
Changed
~~~
- The `colors -> tabs.bg/fg.selected` option got split into
`tabs.bg/fg.selected.odd/even`.
- `:spawn --userscript` and `:hint` with the `userscript` target now look up
relative paths in `~/.local/share/qutebrowser/userscripts` or
`$XDG_DATA_DIR`. Using a binary in `$PATH` won't work anymore with
`--userscript`.
- New design for error pages
- Link filtering for hints now checks if the text is contained anywhere in
the link, and matches case-insensitively.
- The `ui -> remove-finished-downloads` option got changed to an integer and
now takes a time (in milliseconds) to keep the download around after it's
finished. When set to `-1`, downloads are never removed.
- The `:follow-hint` command now optionally takes the keystring of a hint to
follow.
- `:scroll-px` now doesn't take floats anymore, which made little sense.
- Updated the user agent list for the `:set network user-agent` completion.
- Starting with `--debug` doesn't log `VDEBUG` messages anymore (add
`--loglevel VDEBUG` to get them).
- `:debug-console` now hides the console if it's already shown.
- `:yank-selected` now doesn't log the selected text anymore.
- `general -> log-javascript-console` got changed from a boolean to an option
taking a loglevel (`none`, `info`, `debug`).
- `:tab-move +/-` now wraps around if `tabs -> wrap` is `true`.
- When a subprocess (like launched by `:spawn`) fails, its stdout/stderr is now
logged to the console.
- A search engine name can now contain any non-space character, like dashes.
Deprecated
~~
- `:download-remove --all` is now deprecated and `:download-clear` should be
used instead.
- `:download ` is now deprecated and
`:download --dest ` should be used instead.
Removed
~~~
- `:scroll` with two pixel-arguments (deprecated in v0.3.0)
- The `:run-userscript` command (deprecated in v0.2.0)
- The `rapid` and `rapid-win` targets for `:hint` (deprecated in v0.2.0)
- The `:cancel-download` command (deprecated in v0.2.0)
- The `:download-page` command (deprecated in v0.2.0)
Fixed
~
- Fixed retrying of downloads which were started in a now closed tab.
- Fixed displaying of web history if `web-hi

qutebrowser v0.5.1 released!
Hi, I'm happy to annouce the release of qutebrowser v0.5.1! This release fixes three bugs: - Fixed completion for various config values when using `:set`. - Fixed config validation for various config values. - Prevented an error being logged when a website with HTTP authentication was opened on Windows. Since the second one can cause all kinds of funny crashes with unexpected/wrong config values, I decided to do another release rather sooner than later ;) As usual, the Windows packages are still building while I'm writing this, but everything else should be updated.

First of all, please upgrade to v0.5.1 and check if there's any invalid setting in the config - v0.5.0 has a bug where it doesn't validate most setting values, which can cause all kinds of fun trouble. If you get the same on v0.5.1, can you please downgrade to v0.4.1 and see if that makes things work again? I'd be quite surprised, as usually those kinds of things are due to QtWebKit issues.

You should be able to close all running qutebrowser instances and do the following: $ git clone https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser.git $ cd qutebrowser $ git checkout v0.4.1 $ python3 -m qutebrowser --version If that shows you v0.4.1, start it via python3 -m qutebrowser and that's it.

PSA: GitHub broken with qutebrowser
Hey, it seems like GitHub did some changes to their site which means all their JS is broken in QtWebKit based browsers, like qutebrowser. Among other things, this means pressing Ctrl-Enter to submit a comment doesn't work, and clicking "Comment" *does* work, but does not update the page (so take care to not duplicate stuff when commenting on an issue please). Unfortunately there isn't very much I can do right now - so if you use GitHub and it's broken for you too, please contact GitHub support: https://github.com/contact Sorry for the trouble, and let's hope GitHub fixes this soon.

Re: List of Currently Opened Tabs?
Hey, * Stefan Tatschner [2016-01-29 10:28:51 +0100]: > I often have a lot of tabs open in qutebrowser. So I am looking for a > solution to deal better with a lot of tabs. I have come to the idea that > some dmenu/rofi userscript would be fine. IMHO ideally this would be integrated into qutebrowser's completion, see this issue: https://github.com/The-Compiler/qutebrowser/issues/32 Unfortunately I'm working on stuff which is higher priority right now, probably for some more months (tests, QtWebEngine, per domain settings, plugins). I'm still hoping someone will contribute that one ;) > That script should get a list of all currently opened tabs, pipe it into > dmenu/rofi and finally send some "please change to tab number soandso" > command to qutebrowser. > > I have not yet found a qutebrowser command to get a list of all opened > tabs. Am I missing something? There isn't. You'd typically do this via an userscript, and there's currently no way for an userscript to request more information (or get "answers" to commands it sends). qutebrowser could expose this information to userscripts via an environment variable, e.g. some $QUTE_TABS variable set to something like: 0 0 url title of first tab in first window 0 1 url title of second tab in first window [...] The problem with that approach is that it might be too much data for an environment variable, so maybe $QUTE_TABS would need to be a filename of a temporary file, like $QUTE_HTML and $QUTE_TEXT is. Then again I'm not sure how much it makes sense to shoehorn all possible usecases into somewhat fragile userscripts. I'd rather see plugins written in Python (or possibly JS at some later point), but it might still take a while until that's ready.

I'm not sure whether I should add that as a default binding or not,
but you can simply add such a binding yourself:
:bind --mode prompt d tab-close

RFC - Doing a crowdfunding for QtWebEngine in qutebrowser?
Hi! (Warning, somewhat long mail ahead - tl;dr: I'm thinking about doing a crowdfunding to work full-time on qutebrowser for a while, and I'm trying to collect thoughts and opinions on that) As some of you might know, over the past few months I've mostly been working on qutebrowser's testsuite to prepare for the upcoming integration of QtWebEngine, the new backend based on Chromium. Since last year, I've brought the test coverage up from something like 20% to 77%, and now I hope there won't be too much left until I feel confident starting to work on QtWebEngine support. QtWebEngine will bring many improvements to qutebrowser in various areas - compatibility, stability, and security. This is due to it being based on a modern Chromium instead of using an oudated WebKit as backend. However, this is a major undertaking. While I had plans to switch to QtWebEngine since day one, I didn't anticipate it would be as backwards-incompatible as it is (and I think neither did Qt people, back then). Right now, I can only work on qutebrowser quite fragmented. Most of the stuff happens in the 2 hours I drive per day in public transports, with multiple distractions (due to switching trains) in between. I found it very hard to work on bigger things in qutebrowser that way. Twice I took time off from work to be able to do more focused work. Once before the v0.1 release, and once somewhat recently to work on tests. Inspired by pytest doing a fundraiser for a sprint, I looked at a topic I had in the back of my mind for some while already: Collecting some money so I can work on qutebrowser full-time, ideally for a timespan between 2 weeks and 2 months. It's not like I plan to stop working on qutebrowser in my free time, it's just much easier when I can do so for hours without being interrupted rather than minutes. QtWebEngine will come either way, but it'll come a lot faster with your help! As mentioned I mainly plan to work on QtWebEngine in that time, but if time permits, there are other big undertakings (like config adjustments to allow for per-domain settings) waiting to be tackled. Since I'm saving for starting to study later this year, I won't be able to do this without any income at all, however. After some thinking about this, I'd need to have something like 3000 CHF per month to be able to follow those plans. If you wanted to exchange your local currency to that, that'd be about: - 2800 EUR - 2100 GBP - 3000 USD ... I know this is probably sounding like a lot of money. The problem is, living in Switzerland is quite expensive, and what you'd probably consider quite a good salary is really modest here. Adjusting the amounts based on the "location factors"[1] (which I believe are a quite reasonable combination of various sources) yields the following results[2]: - 1300 EUR (assuming you're living in Germany) - 1200 GBP - 2300 USD So what I thought about is doing a "flexible funding" campaign with the goal of probably 3000 EUR, which translates to a month of full-time work on qutebrowser. If there's less than that, I'll get the money either way, and work less time. If there's more, I'll be able to work on it longer (up to something like 7500 EUR, i.e. 2.5 months). In exchange, I could provide some schwag, like qutebrowser stickers and t-shirts. I realize this is quite crazy, and - also due to the lack of cooperate backers - I'm really not sure what to expect, this is more of a (public) thought experiment for now. This is why I'd appreciate hearing any comments and thoughts you all have on that matter - whether you know about similar projects which did such a thing in the past, or you think this is completely crazy, or you dislike the idea in general. Also, if you think you'd donate to the cause, please let me know as well! Feel free to reply to me privately/off-list too.
