Use + {M-o r <window-id>}. To swap the buffers between the same two windows, + use {M-o m <window-id>. See "(hyperbole)Keyboard Drags" for setup and + use instructions. + + - New Frame Commands: Any of these M-o commands that involve two windows + can use a new frame as the target window by using a <window-id> of 'z'. + So, {M-o t z} throws the current buffer to a new frame with a single + window displaying that buffer. The new frame will be the same size as + the prior frame to match the behavior of HyControl. + + - Integrated Ace Window commands with Smart Key Drags and added commands + for use with the mouse that select Ace Window source and target windows + by clicking with the mouse: hmouse-click-to-drag, + hmouse-click-to-drag-stay, hmouse-click-to-drag-to, + hmouse-click-to-replace, hmouse-click-to-swap, hmouse-click-to-throw. + + - {M-o i <window-id>} is now for use only when on a listing item such as + in Dired or Buffer Menu. It no longer creates Hyperbole buttons in + non-item areas to avoid confusion. Now it will just trigger an error + if not on a listing item. + + SMART (ACTION AND ASSIST) KEYS + + - MSWindows Paths: Hyperbole now recognizes typical MSWindows paths (both + local and remote shares) and can convert an in-buffer path between POSIX + and MSWindows formats multiple times, even paths involving mount points. + See "DEMO#POSIX and MSWindows Paths". + + MSWindows paths may be used within links and implicit path + buttons just like POSIX paths, whether running Emacs under a POSIX + system or MSWindows. If under POSIX, a remote MSWindows path must be + accessed through a mount point to the network share. Hyperbole caches + such mount points when it is loaded. Use {M-x + hpath:cache-mswindows-mount-points RET} to update them if more mounts + are made later. See also the NEW COMMANDS section herein for how to + convert a path between POSIX and MSWindows formats. + + - GitLab and Github Links: Added Gitlab implicit links with equivalent + functionality to those of Github. Added "people" reference support to + list people who are part of a formal organization as well as a "staff" + alias. Added "contributors" reference support to list project + contributors as well. Improved Github implicit issue links: gh#gh-34 + and gh#issue/34 now properly reference an issue in the current project. + + - Ripgrep: Added new ripgrep-msg implicit button type which jumps + to the source referenced by ripgrep (rg) output. By default, + ripgrep outputs pathnames only once before all matching lines + within that path. Ripgrep may also be used with the Hyperbole + `hypb:rgrep' command by setting 'hypb:rgrep-command'. See + "https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep". + + - Markdown Mode: Smart Keys now support Markdown internal file link + references and navigation. + + - Org Mode: When in an *Org Help* buffer, the Smart Keys now defer to + org-mode to handle jumps to its own locations for compatibility. + Similarly, in org-mode buffers when not on an org link or heading, + and the {M-RET} Action Key is pressed, Hyperbole defers to Org's + org-meta-return command. + + - Drag-based Kill, Copy and Yank: Added support for dragging across + frames. + + - Python Identifiers: If a Jedi server is running and the Action Key is + pressed on a Python identifier, Hyperbole will use Jedi to find the + definition even within nested module references, e.g. a.b.c. Also + improved basic identifier definition finding. + + - Company Mode Completion: Support for the Emacs company-mode completion + package. An Action Key press on a company-mode completion item will + display the definition of that item and an Assist Key press will + display its documentation, if any. + + - Treemacs Mode: Now supports standard Hyperbole end-of-line proportional + scrolling. + + - ChangeLog Mode: Smart Keys now work on Emacs Lisp references in + changelogs. + + - Improved String Matching: For lines that begin with part of a string + that started on another line, Hyperbole now presumes that point is + within a string rather than between two strings, even though the + delimiters on the line make this ambiguous. This provides more + accurate string recognition. + + - Improved Path Matching: For quote delimited paths, other quote marks + are excluded from matches, so if checking for a doubly quoted path, + single quotes are not allowed in the string. + + HYCONTROL + + - Help Buffer Quitting: If HyControl is active, normally {q} quits + it, but now if point is in an Emacs help buffer, {q} will quit + from the help buffer instead. Use {Q} to quit from HyControl + unconditionally. + + NEW COMMANDS + + - Buffer Sliding: Four new commands are available that can be + bound to things like control arrow keys: hkey-buffer-move-left, + hkey-buffer-move-right, hkey-buffer-move-down and + hkey-buffer-move-up. Each one slides the current buffer one + window in the direction specified and all other buffers slide + around to match. + + - MSWindows and POSIX Path Toggling: In "hpath.el", added + (hpath:substitute-posix-or-mswindows-at-point) and + (hpath:substitute-posix-or-mswindows) commands to toggle the + format of a path at point or in a string between POSIX and + MSWindows styles. + + PROGRAMMING + + - Added hypb:map-plist, equivalent to mapcar but maps over + key-value pairs in property lists (where the key and value are + individual elements in the list). + + - In "hui-select.el", added functions to return info. on the + context-sensitive region that this library selects. + (hui-select-get-region) returns the region that would be + selected at point and (hui-select-get-region-boundaries) + returns a cons of the start and end position of the same region. + + - In "hpath.el (hpath:delimited-possible-path), added optional + include-positions parameter which if non-nil, adds start and end + positions to returned value. + + - In "hversion.el", added (hyperb:wsl-os-p) flag to test whether + Emacs is running under Microsoft Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) + since the system-type variable does not reflect this. + + DOCUMENTATION + + - Popup Menus: Documented how to invoke the Koutliner and + HyRolo popup menus in Emacs.
