- Update to 1.6.2:
* Removed an old workaround about translations, which prevented
some languages from being loaded by recent versions of Qt.
* Show the print bar ("Printing in progress...") before printing,
because Qt's print dialog may be shown with a delay (due to
avahi-daemon, or simply because the document is huge).
* A small change in syntax highlighting of numbers.

* Special highlighting for standard C++ methods.
* More intuitive column selection with wrapped lines (although it
isn't useful with them).
* Allow typing more characters before a selected column.
* Replaced QtGlobal methods and types (like qMax, qMin, qreal, …)
with those of C++.
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/X11:LXQt/featherpad?expand=0&rev=73
* Support column selection now. See Help → Column Selection.
* A rare issue is fixed in finding/highlighting whole words.
* The position number on the status-bar is localized.
* The support for translating the Help file is dropped because
it wasn't practical (an online translation service can be used instead).

* An old issue is fixed in replacement highlighting of multiple tabs.
* Fixed the localization of date and time with Qt6.

some Wayland compositors may ignore it).

- Update to 1.5.0:
* Removed Qt5 support. With this change, the legacy encodings are
also dropped because Qt6 does not support them. If you still have
documents in legacy encodings, you could convert them to UTF-8
with a tool like iconv.
* Prevented the cursor position from being changed when files are
dragged and dropped into the text view.
* Regex replacement with capturing groups is supported.
* Fixed a rare issue in the geometry of a warning bar that is
animated during window resizing.
* Miscellaneous small fixes and enhancements.

* The side-pane can be focused by Ctrl+Escape.
* text/plain;charset=... is recognized as plain text when pasted
(Qt didn't see it as plain text
* The file type filters of file dialogs are protected against
incorrect translations.

* Grouped files are always opened in a single window, even when
the app is configured to open files in separate windows.
* Tab DND is enabled under Wayland.
* A total item deselection is prevented in the side-pane with
Qt6 (Qt5 had no problem).
* Side-pane and session buttons have been added to the tool-bar.
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/X11:LXQt/featherpad?expand=0&rev=59
* A potential cause of crash is removed (by initializing the
variables of TextEdit and TabBar before any event is triggered).
* The Paste item of the Edit menu is enabled/disabled appropriately.
* The single quote is covered as the digit separator in C++(≥14)
syntax highlighting.
* Enabled instant tooltips and corrected context menus on Wayland.
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/X11:LXQt/featherpad?expand=0&rev=57

* Covered indented here-docs in Bash and Perl syntax highlighting.
OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/X11:LXQt/featherpad?expand=0&rev=55
* The Unix signal handling is revamped.
* Instant tab tooltips are replaced by ordinary ones under Wayland
(because Wayland compositors have problem with instant tooltips
of inactive windows).
* Toml syntax highlighting is added.
* The detection of legacy encodings has been totally removed with Qt6.

- Updtae to 1.3.1:
* D-Bus is used — instead of the old, network-based method — for
making the app have a single process. D-Bus is faster, more
versatile, and much more reliable, especially under
extreme circumstances.
FeatherPad still works under non-Linux systems without D-Bus,
but as a multi-process app.
* The qmake compilation has been removed. Its maintenance wasn't
justified, especially with D-Bus.
* A workaround has been added for a Qt5 bug that caused a crash
if SIGTERM was sent while the replacement dock was visible.
The bug doesn't exist in Qt6.

- Update to 0.17.1:
* Avoided making the cursor busy from a separate thread
- Update to 0.17.0:
Main changes:
* Now, FeatherPad can save as root without a root instance when
the user doesn't have the permission to write. Polkit's
pkexec is used (as a run-time dependency) for gaining the
root privilege.
* Printing is done in a separate thread, so that, if it takes
a long time, other windows of FeatherPad could still be used.
* Workarounds are added for bugs in Qt's default printing.
Qt can't handle dark color schemes and the reverse order
with printing; FeatherPad supports both.
Other changes:
* Made the warning bar more flexible for use with saving to
root as well as printing.
* Guarantee that the session dialog has focus after opening
a session.
* Added LaTex to the recognized syntaxes.
* Added simple support for gvfs' admin.
* Fixes to Perl syntax highlighting.
* Several fixes to various small issues.
