GemiNaut 0.8.7 released


Version: 0.8.7

Released: 8-Aug-2020


Here is a new release of GemiNaut.


The main change in this 0.8.7 release is that GemiNaut now opens images directly within the client, and linked files can be downloaded. This makes for a more fluid experience browsing geminispace.


There are two new settings that you can control the amount of content downloaded before the download is abandoned. This is necessary as Gemini protocol does not send any Content-Length. As a result GemiNaut no longer launches external proxy in your web browser for binary linked files (links to external web still open in the browser).


There are also some minor usability improvements, for example, menus can be accessed using keyboard shortcuts, File->New to open a new window, and minor theme improvements.


Feedback, bugs and improvement suggestions are welcomed.
