# Change Log

All notable changes to aerc will be documented in this file.
The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/).

## [Unreleased](https://git.sr.ht/~rjarry/aerc/log/master)
- Search/filter by flags with the `-H` flag.

### Added

- New column-based message list format with `index-columns`.
- Add a `msglist_answered` style for answered messages.
- Compose `Format=Flowed` messages with `format-flowed=true` in `aerc.conf`.
- Add a `trimSignature` function to the templating engine.
- Change local domain name for SMTP with `smtp-domain=example.com` in
  `aerc.conf`
- New column-based status line format with `status-columns`.
- Inline user-defined styles can be inserted in UI templates via the
  `{{.Style "name" string}}` function.

  `aerc.conf`.
- Allow basic shell globbing in `[openers]` MIME types.

- Add `mail-received`, `aerc-startup`, and `aerc-shutdown` hooks.

### Changed

- Filters are now installed in `$PREFIX/libexec/aerc/filters`. The default exec
  `PATH` has been modified to include all variations of the `libexec` subdirs.
- The built-in `colorize` filter theme is now configured in styleset files into
  the `[viewer]` section.
- The standard Usenet signature delimiter `"-- "` is now prepended to
  `signature-file` and `signature-cmd` if not already present.
- All `aerc(1)` commands now interpret `aerc-templates(7)` markup.
- running commands (like mailto: or mbox:) no longer prints a success message
- The built-in `colorize` filter now emits OSC 8 to mark URLs and emails.

### Deprecated

- `[ui].index-format` setting has been replaced by `index-columns`.
- `[statusline].render-format` has been replaced by `status-columns`.
- Removed support for go < 1.17.

## [0.14.0](https://git.sr.ht/~rjarry/aerc/refs/0.14.0) - 2023-01-04

### Added

- View common email envelope headers with `:envelope`.
- Notmuch accounts now support maildir operations: `:copy`, `:move`, `:mkdir`,
  `:rmdir`, `:archive` and the `copy-to` option.
- Display messages from bottom to top with `[ui].reverse-msglist-order=true` in
  `aerc.conf`.
- Display threads from bottom to top with `[ui].reverse-thread-order=true` in
  `aerc.conf`.
- Style search results in the message list with `msglist_result.*`.
- Preview messages with their attachments before sending with `:preview`.
- Filter commands now have `AERC_FORMAT`, `AERC_SUBJECT` and `AERC_FROM`
  defined in their environment.
- Override the subject prefix for replies pattern with `subject-re-pattern` in
  `accounts.conf`.
- Search/filter by absolute and relative date ranges with the `-d` flag.
- LIST-STATUS and ORDEREDSUBJECT threading extensions support for imap.
- Built-in `wrap` filter that does not mess up nested quotes and lists.
- Write `multipart/alternative` messages with `:multipart` and commands defined
  in the new `[multipart-converters]` section of `aerc.conf`.
- Close the message viewer before opening the composer with `:reply -c`.
- Attachment indicator in message list flags (by default `a`, but can be
  changed via `[ui].icon-attachment` in `aerc.conf`).
- Open file picker menu with `:attach -m`. The menu must be generated by an
  external command configured via `[compose].file-picker-cmd` in `aerc.conf`.
- Sample stylesets are now installed in `$PREFIX/share/aerc/stylesets`.
- The built-in `colorize` filter now has different themes.

### Changed

- `pgp-provider` now defaults to `auto`. It will use the system `gpg` unless
  the internal keyring exists and contains at least one key.
- Calling `:split` or `:vsplit` without specifying a size, now attempts to use
  the terminal size to determine a useful split-size.

### Fixed

- `:pipe -m git am -3` on patch series when `Message-Id` headers have not been
  generated by `git send-email`.
- Overflowing text in header editors while composing can now be scrolled
  horizontally.

### Deprecated

## [0.13.0](https://git.sr.ht/~rjarry/aerc/refs/0.13.0) - 2022-10-20

### Added

- Support for bindings with the Alt modifier.
- Zoxide support with `:z`.
- Hide local timezone with `send-as-utc = true` in `accounts.conf`.
- Persistent command history in `~/.cache/aerc/history`.
- Cursor shape support in embedded terminals.
- Bracketed paste support.
- Display current directory in `status-line.render-format` with `%p`.
- Change accounts while composing a message with `:switch-account`.
- Override `:open` handler on a per-MIME-type basis in `aerc.conf`.
- Specify opener as the first `:open` param instead of always using default
  handler (i.e. `:open gimp` to open attachment in GIMP).
- Restored XOAUTH2 support for IMAP and SMTP.
- Support for attaching files with `mailto:`-links
- Filter commands now have the `AERC_MIME_TYPE` and `AERC_FILENAME` variables
  defined in their environment.
- Warn before sending emails that may need an attachment with
  `no-attachment-warning` in `aerc.conf`.
- 3 panel view via `:split` and `:vsplit`
- Configure dynamic date format for the message viewer with
  `message-view-this-*-time-format`.
- View message without marking it as seen with `:view -p`.

### Changed

- `:open-link` now supports link types other than HTTP(S)
- Running the same command multiple times only adds one entry to the command
  history.
- Embedded terminal backend (libvterm was replaced by a pure go implementation).
- Filter commands are now executed with
  `:~/.config/aerc/filters:~/.local/share/aerc/filters:$PREFIX/share/aerc/filters:/usr/share/aerc/filters`
  appended to the exec `PATH`. This allows referencing aerc's built-in filter
  scripts from their name only.

### Fixed

- `:open-link` will now detect links containing an exclamation mark
- `outgoing-cred-cmd` will no longer be executed every time an email needs to
  be sent. The output will be stored until aerc is shut down. This behaviour
  can be disabled by setting `outgoing-cred-cmd-cache=false` in
  `accounts.conf`.
- Mouse support for embedded editors when `mouse-enabled=true`.
- Numerous race conditions.

## [0.12.0](https://git.sr.ht/~rjarry/aerc/refs/0.12.0) - 2022-09-01

- Display active key binds with `:help keys` (bound to `?` by default).
- Multiple visual selections with `:mark -V`.
- Mark all messages of the same thread with `:mark -T`.
- Set default collapse depth of directory tree with `dirlist-collapse`.

### Changed

- Aerc will no longer exit while a send is in progress.
- When scrolling through large folders, client side threading is now debounced
  to avoid lagging. This can be configured with `client-threads-delay`.
- The provided awk filters are now POSIX compliant and should work on MacOS and
  BSD.
- `outgoing-cred-cmd` execution is now deferred until a message needs to be sent.
- `next-message-on-delete` now also applies to `:archive`.
- `:attach` now supports path globbing (`:attach *.log`)

### Fixed

- Reselection after delete and scroll when client side threading is enabled.
- Background mail count polling when the default folder is empty on startup.
- Wide character handling in the message list.
- Issues with message reselection during scrolling and after `:delete` with
  threading enabled.

  of `:view`.

  enabled at startup. This option no longer conflicts with `:toggle-threads`.

### Fixed

- `:pipe`, `:save` and `:open` for signed and/or encrypted PGP messages.
- Messages that have failed `gpg` encryption/signing are no longer sent.
- Recalling attachments from drafts.

  their current configurations. aerc may not behave properly without taking
  this into account.
