Release Notes


Version 1.6.2 (Chrome)

Maintenance release with minor bugfixes for CSS and the options page.

Version 1.6.1 (Chrome)

Autocompletion: The most exciting feature of this release! Page(!), Yubnub(:) and jQuery(*) commands are now autocompleted.

Usability Improvements: Several minor improvements like where focus is returned when gleeBox closes.

No Browser Icon: Now that gleeBox is pretty stable, we decided to get rid of the browser icon to enable/disable gleeBox. If we can think of some useful functionality for it, we'll bring it back.

Other changes:

  • Options page is more accessible via keyboard.
  • Changed default position of gleeBox to bottom.

Version 1.6

Backup: Export/Import your gleeBox settings (even between Firefox and Chrome)

!share now supports AddThis: Instead of being limited to a few services, you can now share pages on any service listed here.

Consistent Enter/Shift+Enter behavior for page commands (except for !read, !rss)

!ext and !down commands: Open the Extensions and Downloads pages respectively. [Chrome only]

Options page spruced up [Chrome only]

Bugfixes

Version 1.5

Glee Tab Manager: Manage currently open tabs [Chrome only]

Customizable Launch Key: Create your own custom shortcut to launch gleeBox.

Sites can define their own ESP: Define your site's ESP vision using a <meta> tag. When gleeBox is run on your site, that ESP vision will be automatically executed.

Streamlined execution: gleeBox is cleared when commands are executed or links are opened via default search.

!v command: Play/pause videos on YouTube.

!inspect command: Get the jQuery selector for an element.

Add visions/scrapers via !set command: Quickly add new visions/scrapers from the TipJar and otherwise.

Scrolling improvements: Less jerky scrolling.

  • Editable items on Options page. Edit existing URLs/scrapers/visions in-place [Chrome only]

CSS Bugfixes

Keeping TAB pressed results in continuous scrolling [Chrome]

Bugfixes:
  • Changes to disabled urls in options are spread properly [Chrome]
  • Fixed toggle of status using browser action [Chrome]
  • Custom scrapers work properly when browser is first run [Chrome]

Version 1.0.1 (Firefox Only)

Bugfix: Resolved the issue with gleeBox inserting HTML in IFrame based forms.

Version 1.0

Custom scraper commands: User defined scrapers.

ESP Mode: Select without typing.

Custom Search Engine: Customize gleeBox's default search engine URL.

Better traversing: Smarter traversing between elements - using scroll level instead of DOM order. Search starts from current user scroll position.

Better scrolling: Smooth scrolling using arrow keys while in gleeBox.

!set command: Customize gleeBox from within gleeBox.

More efficient jQuery mode: jQuery mode is now fully functional.

Firefox Extension: gleeBox is now available as a Firefox extension with the full set of features. The greasemonkey script is being deprecated.

Better storage in Chrome: Preferences are now retained even if you clear the browser cookies in Chrome. Unfortunately, this means if you already have gleeBox installed, you will lose your current settings.

Other changes:
  • CSS bugfixes
  • !options command in Chrome
  • Size is now medium by default
  • !tipjar command
  • Performance improvements - reduced jQuery calls

Version 0.6

Options Panel (Chrome only): Configure gleeBox's features and appearance using the options panel. In Firefox, you can still manipulate the options at the start of the greasemonkey script file.

Bookmarks Integration (Chrome only): You can now choose to let gleeBox search your bookmarks too!

Bookmarklets as page commands (Chrome only): Access any bookmarklet as a page command. Just type ! and the title of the bookmarklet, and then press enter. Voilà!

Customize appearance: Don't like the big black gleeBox at the center of your screen? Make it smaller, move it to the bottom, and even change its colors with themes.

URL Filtering: Disable gleeBox for specific URLs where you don't want it to override with the keyboard shortcuts defined by the page. Firefox users can use greasemonkey's settings to disable the script for certain URLs.

And lots of other goodies:
  • Default search now also searches for linked images with alt text
  • Alt+g now works on Facebook and other sites that use DIVs for text input
  • Option to disable page scrolling animations
  • Several bugfixes
  • New commands- ?p, ?a, !rss, !help
