## 2.7.1 - April 9th 2025 - The "2.7 was not (completely) a joke" release
See 2.7 changelog. This was "real" release ;-)

## 2.7 - April 1st 2025 - XKCDpunk release
APRIL FOOL: Offpunk is now renamed to XKCDpunk. See
https://ploum.net/2025-04-01-xkcdpunk.html
- Introducing command "xkcd" to display a given xkcd comic.
- (April fool) Switching website from offpunk.net to xkcdpunk.net
- blocklist: marked x.com, twitter.com and youtube.com as blocked to save bandwith until we have a viable option to use them with offpunk. We plan to block everything but xkcd.com.
CHANGES:
- "shell" (or "!") now works even without content (so you can run it on startup)
- offpunk: improved "version" to help debugging on the mailing-list
FIXES:
- "reload" on a too large content will actually fetch it
- Consider mimetype "message/news" as "gemtext" because file is sometimes confused. (reported by JMCS)
- ignore annoying warnings for LibreSSL users (by Anna cyberTailor)
- ansicat: workaround what seems to be a BS4 bug where elements after a
were ignored
- offpunk: be more explicit about how to unblock a blocked URL
- ansicat: if a file identified as html starts with "260 char) instead of raising an useless error
## 2.6 - February 24th 2025
FOR PACKAGERS: dependency to python-pil (or pillow) has been dropped
- NEW BEHAVIOUR: not rendered ressources (like PDF) are not opened automatically.
The user is prompted to type "open" to see the ressource. This allows the ressource
to be part of history, be bookmarked, etc…
Offpunk:
- new "--command" command-line argument to immediately launch one or multiple commands
- "add" now accepts link number as a second argument (suggested by JMCS)
- "url" now accepts link number as an argument (suggested by JMCS)
- "url" can be piped to any shell command: "url|" or "url 121|" (suggestion of Stephen)
Ansicat and rendering:
- new "preformat_wrap" option available to wrap even
- PlainText rendering has been vastly improved with wrap, margin and link detection
- fix wrong wraping in gophermap (patch by JMCS)
Opnk and opening files:
note: "opnk" will be renamed "openk" in 3.0
- "opnk" now supports following link like in "opnk $URL XX" where XX is a link number.
- "opnk" is now reading the offpunrc file to use predefined handlers
- "handler" with now automatically add "%s" at the end of the command if not present
- "handler" now supports file exension or full mimetype
Deprecation and removal:
- removed support for chafa < 1.10, as announced in 2.4. python-pil is not used anymore.
- removed the "cat" command as it has no purpose (you can use "!cat" instead) and there was a potential crash (reported by Stephen)
- new "feed" command to replace the "view feed" (which is deprecated)
## 2.5 - January 30th 2025
- "abbrevs" has been replaced by "alias"
- "alias" now allows custom command to be aliased
- PEP8-ification by Vincent Jousse
- changing "datetime.UTC" to "datetime.timezone.utc" for retrocompatibility with python < 3.11
