Vimperator 3.1 was just released a few weeks ago, but development is quick currently and we are pleased to already announce Vimperator 3.2, this time without a special codename though.

Still, some new features and bug fixes were done, but mainly compatiblity for Firefox 5.x and 6.x was added. Full changelog:

2011-06-03

  • version 3.2
  • Compatibility fixes for Firefox 5.x and 6.x. Also bumped maxVersion accordingly
  • Make search more reliable
  • Reworked mode handling a bit. While in the end this will be much cleaner, it might have some regressions. Please report!
  • Better logging: :messages is now the main location for any informative but also error messages (apart from a few very early loading errors, which are still dump'ed to the console since the :messages mechanism might be broken/unavailable in this case). Also show StackTraces on internal errors to faciliate debugging
  • More consistent messages after (un)successful commands
  • Remove CSS hack to get rid of tab scrolling when you have many tabs because some users complained about this change. If you want to allow your tabs to shrink as much as possible, but this into your .vimperatorrc file: :js styles.addSheet(false, "mintabwidth", "chrome://*", ".tabbrowser-tab[fadein]:not([pinned]) { min-width: 16px !important; } .scrollbutton-up, .scrollbutton-down { display:none; }"); This could make a nice vimperator plugin with a :set mintabwith=... option.
  • The heart indiciator for bookmarked pages also shows the correct state now when hovering over a link
  • Many small bug fixes
