2.0.0

Removed support for a few things that made maintenance harder; extending configuration files is easier than before; test coverage greatly increased.

Breaking Changes:

• Java 11+ is now required as a runtime environment (rather than Java 8+), and also for compilation.
• Removed support for the -w argument option.

Features:

• Allow relative paths for included config files.
• Allow overriding settings in included configuration files.

Bugfixes:

• (...) is no longer displayed if there are no lines to skip.
• Display empty lines with a non-zero height in the HTML output.

Improvements:

• README.md now explains how to get gw, and has better syntax highlighting.

Other Changes:

• Test coverage increased to 72%.
• Various internal cleanups.
• Now using java.nio.file.Path everywhere instead of java.io.File.

1.3.0

Optimized -l handling, correct context lines for -l, customizable temporary directory path, no double (...) printing

Breaking Changes:

• The default temporary directory used for HTML output and string replacements is now taken from Java system property java.io.tmpdir, rathen than hardcoded to /tmp.

Features:

• Allow the path of the temporary directory used for HTML output and string replacements to be set with configuration property tmpDir.

Improvements:

• If we have displayed the last matched line we are allowed to show (when -l is used), then the search is stopped for that file.
• Matched lines can now be context lines (when -l is used). If context lines should still be shown after the last matched line allowed to be shown, and we still find a matching line, that line will now be shown as a context line instead.
• The "skipped lines marker" that we used to show after the last match (when -l is used), will no longer be shown. This eliminates double printing of (...).

Other Changes:

• Significantly increased overall test coverage to increase confidence in correctness.

1.2.0

HTML output finished, more correct color highlighting.

Features:

• HTML output will now mark matched and replaced line parts with colors.

Improvements:

• Color highlighting is now more accurate when multiple search patterns (and/or replacements) are used.

1.1.0

Bugfix release fixing treatment of file readability issues so they are not fatal.

Breaking Changes:

• Removed JSF EL support. JSF is rather an outdated technology today.

Bugfixes:

• File readability errors are logged now as non-fatal ones. The script will continue searching, ignoring files with missing readability permissions. You can always get the full stacktrace with -d.

1.0.0

Self-contained executable, requires JRE 8+.
