Bug fixes 🪲 🐛

• kb: Some escape sequences are not properly translated (e.g. \e[200~ for bracketed-paste-begin).
• Create a file (n file) and then remove it (r file). Press Alt+n and then Enter: a file named n is created! The same happens with le and m (interactive rename) when pressing Enter on empty line.
• Some legacy terminals (like the FreeBSD console) froze as soon as we try to query some data from it.
• kb bind does not allow to switch keybindings (for example, setting F1 for bookmarks and Alt+b for show-manpage).
• Alt+h runs a wrong command name (bh).
• Ctrl+Alt+t attempts to trash a file named sel when there are no selected files.
• The extension sort method takes hidden files as file extensions.
• No Tab completion for the hidden command.
• --disk-usage: No device name when running on Termux (Android).
• Positional parameter: cannot open file URI encoded directory names.
• Positional parameter: If file contains references to self or parent dir (. or ..), the path is not properly resolved.
• --data-dir rejects /usr/share/clifm, even when this is the actual data directory.
• the =g filter skips some files with the SGID bit set.
• Compilation error on MacOS Leopard (10.5).
• The j command fails to change directory with escaped directory names.

New features/Improvements 😎

• Add support for the kitty keyboard protocol. Use the --kitty-keys command line flag to ask the terminal to enable this protocol. Consult the manpage for more information.
• Add support for styled underlines. See https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/underlines/#colored-and-styled-underlines
• Add support for the Kitty Notifications Protocol (https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/desktop-notifications/). Enable via --desktop-notifications=kitty in the command line or DesktopNotifications=kitty in the configuration file.
• If running in vi editing mode, print (ins) or (cmd) (for insert and command modes respectively) at the left of the prompt. Use the \v prompt escape code to handle this notification manually.
• New bindable action: toggle-vi-mode (bound by default to Ctrl+Alt+j). Update your readline.clifm and keybindings.clifm files.
• Force the use of a specific color palette via $CLIFM_FORCE_COLOR (supported values: 8, 16, 256, truecolor or 24bit).
• Improve kb bind function (more sensible prompts and better overall flow).
• Allow setting multiple keybindings for the same action. show-manpage2, for example, is not required anymore: just define an extra keybinding for show-manpage.
• Better organization for the keybindings file (update your keybindings file).
• --show-hidden,-a now takes true, first, last, and false as optional parameters (if no parameter is given, true is assumed).
• Add first and last parameters to the hh/hidden command.
• New prompt escape codes: \Q (number of regular and special files); \g (current sort order), and \j (octal permissions of the current directory).
• New prompt (counter), using the above new prompt codes.
• Image preview support for iTerm2. Set $method to iterm in the clifmimg script to force the use of this protocol. Update your clifmimg script.
• Allow the use of multiple positional parameters. For example, clifm /etc ~/Downloads will start clifm in the /etc directory (first workspace), setting the second workspace to ~/Downloads.
• Consistent format for setting messages (on/off).
• Make bulk rename work with vis and helix text editors: br was complaining about the temporary file having being changed on disk due to how these editors save files by default (via rename(2)).

Misc

• --no-apparent-size is deprecated. Use --physical-size instead.
• --no-files-counter is deprecated. Use --no-file-counter instead.
• undel command is deprecated. Use u/untrash instead.
• splash command removed.
