Orbiton 2.62.0

• Use the betteralign utility to optimize structs.
• Improve the man-page functionality so that it also works well on Fedora.
• Always use tabs for makefiles.
• Let ctrl-n and ctrl-p jump to matching parenthesis or bracket, but only if the cursor is on one and if the previous keypress was not ctrl-n/ctrl-p. This way, one can navigate to a parenthesis with the arrow keys and jump to the matching one with ctrl-n/ctrl-p, but scrolling down repeatedly with ctrl-n or up with ctrl-p will not be stopped.
• Let ctrl-g show a friendly help message, but when ctrl-g is pressed a third time, let it either go to definition or toggle the status bar at the bottom. Go to definition is a new experimental feature, is only tested for Go code, and currently only works within the same file.
• Press Esc 4 times in a row as an alternative way of opening the ctrl-o menu.
• Let ctrl-space render Markdown files to HTML.
• Add a menu option in the ctrl-o menu for rendering Markdown files to PDF with pandoc.
• Add a "fix as you type" feature that can be enabled in the ctrl-o menu if the OPENAI_API_KEY, OPENAI_KEY or CHATGPT_API_KEY environment variables is set to a valid OpenAI API key. Every time return is pressed, the line will be sent to ChatGPT and be corrected. This is an experimental feature.
• Also save the search history for "search and replace" (ctrl-f, then the tab key and then return).
• Fix a bug in the WordAtCursor function.
• Add a command line flag for clearing all file locks.
• Show a status message when pasting through portals.
• Add a Markdown table editor that can be activated by pressing ctrl-t while the cursor is on a Markdown table. Within the table editor, ctrl-n can be used for adding columns, ctrl-d can be used for deleting empty columns. return, tab and the arrow keys also work, see the README.md file for more information.
• Let ctrl-w format Markdown tables, if the cursor is on one.
• Add a menu option for sorting a block of lines.
• Minor improvements to the Agda symbol insertion menu.
• Update dependencies.
• Update documentation.

• Remove an unused function.
• Update dependencies.

Orbiton 2.60.6

• Fix the detection of Makefile indentation.
• Add a -p flag for pasting the clipboard contents to a new file.

• Improve the terminal title when using o to read man pages with ie. MANPAGER=o man ls.
• Add flags to the README.md file.
• Update dependencies.

Orbiton 2.60.5

Orbiton 2.60.5

• Ignore warnings and notes from the C compiler when building Go programs that uses C.
• Fix the mode dependency so that it uses the first 512 bytes to detect the file type. Some man pages have very long first lines.
• Fix issues with reading data from stdin, ref #14.
• Add binary/text detection for data given on stdin.
• Improve the version.sh script so that it also works on macOS.
• Improve the release.sh script so that it compiles for multiple platforms in parallel.
• Update documentation.
• Update dependencies.

Oribton 2.60.4

Performance improvements

• Load files faster, with fewer system calls.
• Postpone loading some files when o starts, and load them later on as needed.

Programming language support

• Let double ctrl-space build and run Odin programs.
• Also let the automatic iferr feature work for Odin.
• Add initial support for Arduino and .ino files.

Syntax highlighting

• Syntax highlight italics in Markdown, for some cases.
• Improve syntax highlighting of URLs in source code.
• Simplify some of the Python syntax highlighting code.
• Minor improvement of the syntax highlighting for Nroff files.

Building and running

• Improve the logic for finding the compiled executable name.

ChatGPT / OpenAI

• Make it possible to enter an OpenAI API key from the ctrl-o menu.
• Refresh the cursor after generating code.
• Let Generate, generate, Write and write in single-line comments, with a blank line following, trigger code generation.
• Let lines starting with ! trigger code generation.

GUI/VTE frontend and macOS

• Change the default font for macOS.
• Let the cmd key act similar to the ctrl key on macOS.
• Add a Build option in the ctrl-o menu for macOS, since ctrl-space might not register.

General

• Update documentation.
• Update dependecies.
• Update the CI configuration.

Orbiton 2.60.3

• Fix an issue with reading the OPENAI_KEY environment variable.
• Fix the file mode for the temporary search and location history files.
• Let search actions be part of recorded macros.
• Check that the next line is blank before generating code with a comment that starts with Write.
• Add a CMake template.
• Add zombies to the little built-in game.
• Add experimental support for macOS for the VTE GUI application.
• Update documentation.
• Update dependencies.

Orbiton 2.60.2

• Update the .desktop file.
• Update the release script.
• Fix a typo in go.mod that could cause issues for users of go install.
• Update documentation.
• Update dependencies.

Orbiton 2.60.1

• Also rename the release files after the project was renamed from O to Orbiton.
• Update dependencies.

Orbiton 2.60.0

• Project rename, from o to Orbiton. The editor executables are still:
  • o - for the terminal
  • og - for the VTE GUI
• Add built-in support for formatting /etc/fstab files.
• Stop the arrow keys from doing anything while code is being generated an inserted by ChatGPT.
• Support more environment variable names for the OpenAI key. Now these are supported: CHATGPT_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY or OPENAI_KEY, in that order.
• Update dependencies.
• Update documentation.

o 2.59.5

• Don't call os.Getenv several times. Call os.Environ once and then cache the variables. This is handled automatically by the github.com/xyproto/env/v2 package. There is a tiny performance improvement for o because of this.
• Add a Makefile target for building with the trace build tag.
• Set the default ChatGPT temperature to 0, for generating code and to 0.8 for generating other text.
• In addition to ! for filetypes other than Markdown, only use Write and write as "trigger words" for starting to generate code or text with ChatGPT (and only if the CHATGPT_API_KEY is set).
• Update dependencies.
• Update documentation.
