What’s new
How kumiko changed from version to version, in plain words.
A ready setup in one click
- The General page has a button that applies the author's setup: twelve workspaces on alt-1 ... alt-=, the apps on each and two hotkey modes. Apps you don't have are left out, and your old config is kept as a backup.
- A hotkey mode you forgot about ends on its own: after `mode_timeout` seconds without a key, on a mouse click, or when another app comes to the front. While a mode is on, the frame around the focused window takes its colour.
- Switch the system between light and dark from the kumiko menu or with `kumiko appearance`, and Automatic stays on.
- The apps that get no frame are now edited right in the border settings: a row per app and an Add App menu, as in the Vim list.
- Windows of Steam and other apps that draw them in a helper process now tile and follow rules and workspaces, and such an app has one icon in the bar. A square window gets a square frame.
- Bring kumiko forward with cmd-tab while its settings sit on a hidden workspace, and that workspace shows right away.
- When kumiko crashes, it sends a crash report so the crash can be fixed: the stack and the versions of kumiko and macOS, no window titles or app names. Turn it off with `crash_reports = false` in `[telemetry]`.
Windows stay on screen
- A floating window you drag past the edge of the screen slides back when you let go of the mouse button. Turn it on with “Keep windows on screen” in the window settings or with `keep_on_screen` in `[wm]`.
The first release
- Windows tile, stack or float, and each workspace picks its own way. A group of native tabs takes one place.
- Workspaces live on displays, and apps open on theirs in the order you list them.
- A settings window edits the whole config, from workspaces and window rules to hotkeys and Vim, and writes only the lines that change.
- A bar in the place of the menu bar: workspaces with app icons that grow under the pointer, the time, the battery and the input source, and a click on each does what you would expect.
- A frame around the focused window, in your accent colour.
- Hotkeys with modes, and Vim modes in any text field.
- Menu bar icons you rarely need hide behind a divider.
- kumiko installs from Homebrew.
