still supports python 2.6, 2.7, and 3.3 through 3.11 (at least)

new features

  • show channel nicks in the statusbar, most-recently-active first
  • linemode improvements (scroll batching + try to conceal DSR output)

bugfixes

  • telnet.exe sending incorrect dimensions when terminal width/height above 256
    • they accidentally went uint8 instead of uint16 somewhere so just rely on DSR instead
  • push hilight notifications to the statusbar immediately

other changes

  • when switching channels: jump to bottom of history instead of oldest unread message
    • and improve hilighting of unread messages so you can scroll back up if you'd like
  • no longer possible to upgrade directly from v1.0 (the very first version)
    • upgrading from any other version from the past 4 years is fine
    • all previous versions will fix/upgrade the directory structure on startup
