Bookmarker Menu v1.3.1 - Styling is here!

Just a small update this time, which introduces styling. There isn't too much to say about this one, other than that some lines are now in bold, and the currently selected bookmark appears in yellow (and bold) to stand out more. Particularly useful if you have a lot of bookmarks and you tend to lose track of the cursor.

I had contemplated for a while if I should also use styling in the Typer to indicate the current position instead of using ; as a cursor, but I finally opted not to since it would probably be more confusing. Instead, there is still a 'physical' cursor, but it's | instead of ;, and it's bold and yellow to stand out a bit more and make it more obviously a cursor instead of just another character in the string.

And while I was at it with the Typer and its cursor, I thought I might as well change the way the DEL button works. Instead of deleting the whole string, it instead just deletes the one character after the cursor, like it works in all text processors. The reason I had the original function for the DEL button is because it was a pain to clear the whole string because you had to repeatedly tap the BACKSPACE button. But now you can hold it and clear any string with little to no effort, so the old functionality of the DEL button wasn't needed anymore.

I plan to add custom styling to the bookmark names as well, but for now, I've disabled ASS tags, because it can break a few things here and there. I will have this added to the next release.

The undo/redo functions are coming. I just have to figure out what's the best way to handle them. I have a few good ideas, though.

New in version 1.3.1:

• DEL button now deletes the character after the cursor instead of clearing the whole string
• Styling added for certain lines
• Currently selected line is now bold and yellow
• Typer cursor changed from ; to a bold and yellow |

Future plans:

• Allow custom tags for bookmark styling
• Undo function
• Redo function

Bookmarker Menu v1.3.0 - Replacing bookmarks? Compatibility? Repeated keys? Sure!

Bookmarks can finally be replaced by selecting a bookmark and pressing p. This replaces the currently selected bookmark with the current file and position. This is particularly useful if you have a bookmark that tracks your progress with a TV series, and you just finished watching a new episode. You can then select the bookmark for this TV series, press p, and replace that bookmark with your current progress!

And finally, it's been long overdue, but compatibility with mpv-bookmarker is finally here. You can load the bookmarks.json directly into this script now and it will automatically convert all those bookmarks so they can be used with Bookmarker Menu!

Lastly, but certainly not least...ly? Bookmarker Menu finally allows you to hold certain keys to repeat them. Gone are the days of having to continually tap the DOWN button to scroll through your massive list of bookmarks. Just hold that button and see that cursor zoom! This works for a variety of keys, particularly navigation keys and the keys in the Typer. Have fun!

New in version 1.3.0

• Added the ability to replace bookmarks with the currently playing file and position (See Usage for more info)
• Bookmarks from mpv-bookmarker can now be loaded and will be automatically converted
• Certain keys are now repeated while holding the button, eliminating the need to constantly tap the same button
• Added the option to automatically close the menu after replacing a bookmark
• Added the option whether to ask for confirmation before replacing/deleting a bookmark
• Added more error messages
• Slightly changed up how forced controls are programmed and activated to accomodate the repeated keys
• Slightly changed up how bookmarks are created in the code to accomodate replacing them

Bookmarker Menu v1.2.0 - Filepaths, cursors, version numbers, oh my!

This time around, there are a few new additions. Firstly, you can now edit filepaths of bookmarks. This is particularly useful if you changed your files to a different folder. You can then just edit the filepath to reflect this change. This is also useful if you have your files on an external drive and Windows assigned a different drive letter to it again. You can change the filepath by pressing f while selecting the bookmark you want to edit.

The Typer now also has a cursor, allowing you to actually insert or delete text anywhere within the text string instead of being able to only manipulate the ending. The cursor is represented by the ; because that is about the only character the Type can't handle for some reason, and it's unlikely you'll want the ; character in your bookmark name anyway.

Lastly, a minor change. The bookmarks now have version numbers to allow for backward compatibility. Bookmarker Menu will check the version number of a bookmark and update it accordingly to the latest version. This is also for future proofing.

New in version 1.2.0

• Added a cursor to the Typer, allowing you to insert text in other places than the end of the line
• Added the ability to change the filepath of a bookmark, in case you moved files to a different folder, or your external drive is suddenly assigned a different drive letter
• Changed the way filepaths are saved and loaded, to accomodate the ability to edit them
• Introduced version numbers to the bookmarks for potential backward compatibility
• Because of this, all older bookmarks should still be compatible with version 1.2.0
• Changed some of the messages and added a few more error messages

Bookmarker Menu v1.1.0 - The Typer is more advanced now!

I added some extra functionality to the Typer this time around and generally made the code just a bit cleaner. See the changelog below to see what's new!

New in version 1.1.0

• Added minor property expansion to the Typer
• You can type %t or %p for the bookmark name and have it expand into the time or position respectively
• Added checks for all faulty behavior that I could think of and added error messages for those situations
• Cleaned up the code a bit

Bookmarker Menu v1.0.2 - Now with added keypad

Just a simple addition this time, which allows you to use the keypad keys for the Typer as well.

New in version 1.0.2
