Light Table v0.8.1 Release Notes

Release Date: 2016-01-22 // over 9 years ago

  • 🔄 Changes

    • 🔄 CHANGED: [:app :lt.objs.settings/pair-keymap-diffs] behavior is being deprecated. Use [:editor :lt.objs.editor/autoclose-brackets] in your user.behaviors instead. lt.objs.editor/autoclose-brackets should fix autoclosing characters e.g. '[{" for international users.
    • 🔄 CHANGED: Backspace key uses the same CodeMirror plugin that lt.objs.editor/autoclose-brackets does
    • 🔄 CHANGED: lt.util.cljs/js->clj is being deprecated. Plugin authors can use the js->clj that comes with ClojureScript
    • 🔄 CHANGED: Removed unused lt.objs.titlebar ns and lt.objs.titlebar/add-titlebar behavior
    • 🔄 CHANGED: Removed unused styling in structure.css
    • 🔄 CHANGED: Removed harbor and jshint node packages that belong to other LightTable plugins
    • 🔄 CHANGED: Removed :hide-connect command which is the same as :show-connect
    • 🔄 CHANGED: Removed light skin which was just a confusing pointer to dark skin

    • ⚡️ CHANGED: Check for updates every hour instead of every 5 minutes
