= Changelog This changelog contains major and/or breaking changes to Kakoune between released versions. == Development version This version contains a significant overhaul of various Kakoune features that can break user configuration. This was a necessary change to make Kakoune command model cleaner and more robust. * `%sh{...}` strings are not reparsed automatically anymore, they need to go through an explicit `evaluate-commands` * The `-allow-override` switch from `define-command` has been renamed `-override`. * The search prompt uses buffer word completion so that fuzzy completion can be used to quickly search for a buffer word. * The `wrap` highlighter can accept a new `-marker ` switch. * The command line syntax has changed to support robust escaping, see <>. * Various lists (options, registers...) in Kakoune are now written using the command line syntax: - `set-register` now take an arbitrary number of parameters and sets the register to multiple strings. `%reg` expands to a list of strings. - `%opt` expands list options as list of strings. - selection descs are whitespaces separated instead of `:` separated * Highlighters syntax has changed to permit explicit naming and remove highlighter specific name parameters (such as for the group highlighter) `add-highlighter / ` is the new syntax. * Regions highlighters have been overhauled and are now specified with a sequence of commands instead of a single one: ------------------------------------------------------------------ add-highlighter / regions add-highlighter // region \ ------------------------------------------------------------------ The recursion regex is opt-in through a `-recurse ` flag. They also are not necessarily groups anymore, a region can directly apply any other highlighter See <> == Kakoune 2018.04.13 First official Kakoune release.
