RELEASE HISTORY¶ ↑
1.5.0 | 2015-01-16¶ ↑
ANSI
1.5 introduces one change that is not backward compatiable. The :clear_line
code no longer clears to the end of the line. Instead it clears the entire line. If you have used this in the past you will need to update your code to use :clear_eol
or :clear_right
instead. In addition this release finally fixes some long time issues with Windows compatability, and a few other bugs. Yeah!
Changes:
-
Alias
:right
and:left
as:forward
and:back
respectively. -
Change
:clear_line
to clear whole line, not just to the end of line. -
Add
:cursor_hide
and:cursor_show
codes. -
Fix and adjust rgb method to work as one would expect.
-
Fix Windows compatability (old code was alwasy using stty).
-
Fix duplicated hash key in chart.rb.
1.4.3 | 2012-06-26¶ ↑
This release bring two small changes. The first improves support for Windows by only rescuing LoadError when 'win32console' fails to load. The second improves the heuritstics used for determining the current terminal screen width.
Changes:
-
Only rescue LoadError on windows require. (#9) [bug]
-
Improvements for getting proper screen width.
1.4.2 | 2012-01-29¶ ↑
ANSI
chains are a new feature inspired by Kazuyoshi Tlacaelel's Isna project. It is a fluid notation for the String#ansi
method, e.g. "foo".red.on_white
. Also, ASNI now supports “smart codes”, preventing previously applied codes from undermining the applicaiton of additional codes –a subtle issue that most other ANSI
libraries overlook. Plus a few other improvements including that of the API documentation.
Changes:
-
Add ANSI::Chains, extending
String#ansi
method. -
Support smart code application.
-
Add Diff#to_a and shortcut to it via Diff.diff().
-
Improve colorize method in ProgressBar.
-
Change ProgressBar's default mark to
|
instead ofo
. -
Fix Curses return order of screen cols and rows.
-
Support center alignment in Columns.
-
Support custom padding for Columns.
1.4.1 | 2011-11-09¶ ↑
This release simply fixes a documentation issue, to make sure QED.rdoc appears in the YARD docs. And a shout-out to Chad Perrin for submitting some doc fixes for this project and a few other Rubyworks projects.
Changes:
-
Adjust .yardopts file.
-
Documentation fixes.
1.4.0 | 2011-11-05¶ ↑
New release adds a HexDump class for colorized byte string dumps and fixes some minor cell size issues with the Table class. This release also modernizes the build config and changes the license to BSD-2-Clause.
Changes:
-
Add HexDump class.
-
Fix cell size of tables when
ANSI
codes are used. -
Fix extra ansi codes in tables without format.
-
Modernize build configuration.
-
Switch to BSD-2-Clause license.
1.3.0 | 2011-06-30¶ ↑
This release cleans up the Code module. It adds support for x-term 256 color codes. Also, the Diff class is now awesome, making use of an LCS algorithm. But the most important difference with this release is that the String
core extensions are in their own file, core.rb. If you want to use them you will need to require ansi
or ansi/core
.
Changes:
-
Clean-up Code module.
-
Utilize common chart for Code methods.
-
Constants now have their own module.
-
Move core methods to
ansi/core.rb
. -
Add XTerm 256 color code support.
-
Improved Diff class with LCS algorithm.
1.2.5 | 2011-05-03¶ ↑
This release introduces a preliminary rendition of a Diff class for getting colorized comparisons of strings and other objects. It's not officially supported yet, so this is only a point release.
Changes:
-
Added Diff class for colorized comparisons.
-
Fixed minor issue with Columns format block; col comes before row.
1.2.4 | 2011-04-29¶ ↑
This release improves to the ANSI::Columns
class. In particular the layout is more consistent with intended functionality.
Changes:
-
Improved
ANSI::Columns
to give more consistent output. -
ANSI::Columns#to_s
can override number of columns. -
ANSI::Columns
can take aString
or Array list.
1.2.3 | 2011-04-08¶ ↑
Minor release to add clear method to ProgressBar and provide bug fix to BBCode.ansi_to_bbcode. Big thanks goes to Junegunn Choi for this fix.
Changes:
-
Add ProgressBar#clear method.
-
Fixed
ANSI::BBCode.ansi_to_bbcode
and ansi_to_html from omitting lines without any ansi code (Junegunn Choi).
1.2.2 | 2010-06-12¶ ↑
This release removes warnings about string arguments for certain ANSI::Code
methods. While the string form is considered deprecated, for a few methods there is no use for any argument, so the string form can remain. In addition, String#unansi
has been added to compliment String#ansi
. Lastly, this release also adds the display method to ANSI::Mixin
.
Changes:
-
Remove string argument warnings.
-
Add
String#unansi
andString#unansi!
-
Add
ANSI::Mixin#display
.
1.2.1 | 2010-05-10¶ ↑
This release was simply a quick fix to remove the incorrect embedded version number, until it gets fixed.
1.2.0 | 2010-05-10¶ ↑
This release entails numerous improvements. First and foremost the Code module is transitioning to a block interface only and phasing out the string argument interface. Admittedly this is mildly unconventional, but it allows the arguments to be used as options with common defaults more elegantly.
Another important change is that ANSI::Code
no longer provides String
extension methods when included. For this use the new ANSI::Mixin
.
Other improvements include a String
extension, ansi, added to code.rb, which makes it even easier to apply ANSI
codes to strings. Also, the ANSI::String
class has been fixed (a few bugs crept it with the last release) and continues to improve. On top of all this testing has substantially improved thanks to QED.
Changes:
-
Support string argument for now but with warning
-
Bug fixes for
ANSI::String
-
Add mixin.rb for alternate mixin.
-
Many new tests and QED documents.
1.1.0 | 2009-10-04¶ ↑
This release is the first toward making the ANSI
library more widely usable.
Changes:
-
Add bbcode.rb for conversion between BBCode/ANSI/HTML.
-
ProgressBar and Progressbar are the same.
-
Other minor underthehood improvements.
1.0.1 | 2009-08-15¶ ↑
The release fixes a single bug that should allow Ruby 1.9 to use the ANSI
library.
Changes:
-
Renamed PLATFORM to RUBY_PLATFORM
1.0.0 | 2009-08-15¶ ↑
This is the initial stand-alone release of ANSI
, a collection of ANSI
based classes spun-off from Ruby Facets.
Changes:
-
Happy Birthday!
