RELEASE NOTES
==============

The "Sisyphus incremental improvements" release

* Preferences window
  * Allows setting keybinding on the fly
  * List and enable/disable plugins and set plugin options
* Everything was improved slightly, but steadily
* Understands more applications, provides more files and objects,
  and actions with **new plugins:** *Rhythmbox, Abiword, Clipboards, Dictionary,
  Favorites, Selected Text, Wikipedia*
* Connect applications with their related object sources and make it their
  content, such as Rhythmbox music for the Rhythmbox application.
  * Applications contain their recently used documents, if
    available.
  * Firefox and Epiphany bookmarks are identified with each application
* Miscellaneous improvements:
  * Kupfer object icon ("blue box")
  * _Some_ default application associations are installed (others
    are learned by launching applications).
  * Experimental UI with two-line title+description in browse mode
  * Thumbnails for files and albums in browse mode
  * Allow sending files and queries to kupfer from the commandline
    using `kupfer 'query'` or `kupfer docs/file.pdf`.
  * Even more plugins listen to change callbacks or filesystem monitors
    to be up to date to the instant.
  * Do not display nonexisting files as results
  * Fine-tune how sources are loaded and refreshed on load

This release deserves lots of testing. [File bug reports and feature
requests.][bug] Read the files in `Documentation/` and see how you can add
new plugins with object and application knowledge to kupfer.

This release is localized in: Swedish (100%), Italian (60%)

Future: part 2 of beautification is refactoring of the interface, so
that the UI can be modularized and exchanged in plugins.
