Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Updated to Vim 9.0.1677

Announcements
====================

Website
--------------------

The official website for MacVim is now https://macvim.org. Previously it just
forwarded to https://macvim-dev.github.io/macvim/. You can also read the MacVim
documentation at https://macvim.org/docs/gui_mac.txt.html. #1385

Features
====================

Updater / What's New page
--------------------

There is now a "What's New" page that will automatically be shown whenever
MacVim detected that it has been updated to a new version (can be disabled in
Settings). The page will also include all the release notes if you have
updated across multiple versions. This feature is useful for users who turned
on "Automatically install updates" or installs MacVim through other methods
like Homebrew but would still like to see the release notes when a new version
comes out. You can also access it through the Help menu. #1414

MacVim should now report its version in a much more consistent manner in the
"About MacVim" page and when the updater reports there is a new version. It
should look something like "r176 (Vim 9.0.1276)" where "r176" is the MacVim
release number and the 9.0.1276 is the bundled Vim version. #1293 #1393

Sparkle (updater for MacVim) is now updated to 2.4.2. #1416

New Vim features
--------------------

- New bundled colorschemes: wildcharm/retrobox/sorbet/zaibatsu (vim/vim#12163)
- File encryption now has a new `cryptmethod`: `xchacha20v2`, which is designed
  to be more forward compatible with future Vim versions than `xchacha20`.
  (v9.0.1481)
- `switchbuf` works for more commands. (v9.0.1546)
- Statusline now supports multiple alignment "%=" items. (v9.0.1300)
- New UTF-16 utility functions (`strutf16len` and `utf16idx`) (v9.0.1485)
- Misc 'smoothscroll' bugs fixes
