Changes for version 1.8 - 2019-04-29

  • work around newer versions of mpv no longer having a pause command.
  • always use mpv to display gif images, because it's hard to detect whether a gif is animated or not.
  • use a better(?), more "sharp" method to detect keyboard accelerators and to decide which keys to pass to the schnauzer from the image window.
  • new selection method. Alt-A / select files i same directory, can be repeated.
  • rename select by prefix to select by adjacent name.
  • increase search range for adjacent name to 10000.
  • change meta-mask to mod1-mask, as gtk+ has silently changed the meaning of meta over the years (so much for api stability...).
  • newer perl versions somehow manage to leak the prefetch file handle somehow, try tro work aorund.
  • implement (undocumented) filename_display_name hook in Gt2k::CV::Schnauer.
  • use symbolic names for entry indices in Schnauzer, for sanity, as the design is now stable enough.
  • use loop-file=inf for mpv instead of -loop 0, which only works for mplayer.
  • add metadata clustering plugin.
  • use ffprobe also if libmagic cannot detect anything, to decide whether the file is (maybe) an image or (maybe) a video.
  • namecluster now respects default modifier mask.
