   7 * 0.10.0 (June 11th, 2016)
   8
   9 ** Changes and New Features
  10
  11 *** Yasnippet now prints far fewer message by default.
  12 See Github #682, #683.
  13
  14 *** `yas-wrap-around-region' can be set to a register.
  15 The register's content will be used.  This is like the old `cua'
  16 option, but can be used with any register and doesn't require enabling
  17 cua-mode.
  18
  19 *** Clearing of snippet fields is now decided by the command's effect.
  20 The `delete-selection' property is no longer consulted.  See Github #662.
  21
  22 *** Empty lines in snippet expansion are no longer indented.
  23 See Github #679.
  24
  25 *** All lines from mirror output are now indented.
  26 See Github #665.
  27
  28 *** New variable yas-alias-to-yas/prefix-p
  29 See Github #696, #699.
  30
  31 *** New function yas-next-field-will-exit-p
  32 See Github #561.
  33
  34 *** `snippet-mode' is now autoloaded.
  35
  36 ** Fixed Bugs
  37
  38 *** Fix incompatibility with Emacs 25 and haskell-mode.
  39 This should also help other modes with a non-nil syntax-propertize
  40 function.  See Github #687.
  41
  42 *** Text property changes no longer disable snippets.
  43 This prevents cc-mode based modes from causing premature exit of
  44 snippets.  See Github #677.
  45
  46 *** Fields are now transformed correctly after `yas-next-field'.
  47 See Github #381.
  48
  49 *** The $> construct is now escaped correctly, and documented.
  50 See Github #640.
  51
  52 *** Avoid corruption of snippet content when loading from files.
  53 See Github #707 and Emacs bug #23659.
  54
  55 *** `yas-wrap-around-region' now works for snippets with fields
  56 farther down the buffer than $0.  See Github #636.
  57
  58 *** The active region is deleted when using `yas-expand'.
  59 This makes it consistent with `yas-insert-snippet'.  See Github #523.
  60
  61 *** Fix mirror+autofill interaction.
  62 See Github #643 and http://emacs.stackexchange.com/q/19206/5296.
  63
  64 *** Snippet insertion no longer adds irrelevant strings to kill ring.
  65 See Github #675.

  68 * 0.9.1 (April 3rd, 2016)
  69
  70 ** Changes and New Features
  71
  72 *** Noam Postavsky is now the official yasnippet maintainer.
  73
  74 *** `yas-visit-snippet-file' now works for compiled snippets (see Github #597).
  75
  76 *** New function `yas-lookup-snippet' (see Github #595, #596).
  77
  78 *** .emacs.d/snippets directory is now created automatically.
  79 If that value is present in `yas-snippet-dirs' (see Github #648).
  80
  81 *** Default value for `yas-snippet-dirs' now uses `user-emacs-directory'
  82 instead of hardcoding "~/emacs.d" (see Github #632).
  83
  84 *** `yas-visit-snippet-file' no longer overrides `yas-prompt-functions',
  85 see Github #576.
  86
  87 *** The defaults for prompting have changed.
  88 `yas-x-prompt' is no longer present in the default value of
  89 `yas-prompt-functions'.
  90
  91 The new function `yas-maybe-ido-prompt' (which performs ido prompting
  92 if `ido-mode' is enabled) replaces `yas-ido-prompt' (which always
  93 performs ido prompting).  Previously the behaviour was dependent on
  94 the Emacs version being used.
  95
  96 *** The default value of `yas-buffer-local-condition' now works for `yas-insert-snippet' too.
  97 See Github #305.
  98
  99 *** The default value of `yas-new-snippet-default' no longer inserts `require-final-newline: nil'.
 100 It was redundant, since `mode: snippet' already accomplishes the same.
 101 `binding: ${4:direct-keybinding}}' is also removed, as it is hardly
 102 ever wanted.
 103
 104 *** Snippet fields are only cleared by commands with `delete-selection' property,
 105 See Github #515, #644.
 106
 107 *** `yas-initialize' (and backward compat alias `yas/initialize') are restored,
 108 but marked obsolete, use (yas-global-mode +1) instead.  See Github
 109 #546, #569.
 110
 111 *** `yas-key-syntaxes' is much more powerful and accepts functions.
 112 Enables use cases when discovering keys based on buffer syntax is not
 113 good enough.  See issue #497.
 114
 115 *** Documentation rewritten in org-mode and updated.
 116 A tremendous effort by Noam Postavsky.  Hopefully easier to maintain
 117 and navigate.  Available at <http://capitaomorte.github.io/yasnippet>.
 118
 119 *** Snippets are now maintained in their own repo.
 120 Snippets live in Andrea Crotti's
 121 <https://github.com/andreacrotti/yasnippet-snippets>.  See README.md
 122 for more details.
 123
 124 *** Textmate snippet importer moved to separate `yasmate' repo.
 125 URL is <https://github.com/capitaomorte/yasmate>.  See README.md for
 126 more details.
 127
 128 *** `yas-snippet-dirs' now allows symbols as aliases to directories.
 129 The added level of indirection should allow more esoteric
 130 configurations (see Github #495).
 131
 132 *** `yas-reload-all' can now jit-load when called interactively.
 133
 134 *** New `yas-after-reload-hook' run after `yas-reload-all'.
 135 See <https://github.com/pezra/rspec-mode/pull/75> for the discussion
 136 leading up to this change.
 137
 138 *** New functions `yas-activate-extra-mode' and `yas-deactivate-extra-mode'.
 139 These are preferable to setting `yas-extra-modes' directly in the mode
 140 hook (see issue #420 for more information).
 141
 142 *** New variable `yas-new-snippet-default'.
 143 The default snippet suggested on `yas-new-snippet' can now be
 144 customized.
 145
 146 ** Fixed bugs
 147
 148 *** `yas-expand' now sets `this-command' when falling back to another command.
 149 Previously it was setting `this-original-command', which does not
 150 match the documented semantics.  See Github #587.
 151
 152 *** Github #537: Be lenient to extensions operating on snippet fields.
 153
 154 *** Github #619: Parents of extra modes are now activated too.
 155
 156 *** Github #549: `yas-verbosity' is now applied to `load' calls too.
 157
 158 *** Github #607; avoid obscure Emacs bug triggered by overlays in *Messages* buffer.
 159 It was triggered by yasnippet+flycheck+highlight-parentheses.  See
 160 also <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=21824>
 161
 162 *** Github #617; fix x prompt when snippet inserts many lines.
 163
 164 *** Github #618; avoid breakage if `scan-sexp' modifies match data.
 165 Which it does in Emacs 25.
 166
 167 *** Github #562: Deleting inner numberless snippet caused an error.
 168
 169 *** Github #418, #536: Fix navigation to zero-length fields at snippet end.
 170
 171 *** Github #527, #525 and #526: Attempt to prevent "fallback loops"
 172 when interactiing with other extensions that use similar fallback
 173 mechanisms.
 174
 175 \f
 176 * 0.8.0 (August 2012)
 177
 178 ** Changes and New Features
 179
 180 *** All YASnippet symbols now prefixed with `yas-'.  Keep old `yas/' versions as aliases.
 181
 182 *** Yasnippet is now Free Software Foundation's copyright.
 183
 184 *** `yas-dont-activate' can be a list of functions.
 185
 186 *** Snippets are loaded just-in-time .
 187 Thanks to Matthew Fidler for a lot of input with the implementation.
 188
 189 *** yasnippet-bundle.el is no longer available.
 190 Use `yas-compile-directory' instead if you need the speed advantage.
 191
 192 *** New functions `yas-compile-directory' and `yas-recompile-all'.
 193 This feature is still undocumented.  Generate a
 194 .yas-compiled-snippets.el file in the directory passed where snippets
 195 are compiled into emacs-lisp code.
 196
 197 *** New `yas-verbosity' variable.
 198
 199 *** Interactively calling `yas-exit-snippet' exits most recently inserted snippet.
 200
 201 *** Using filenames as snippet triggers is deprecated.
 202
 203 *** Default value of `yas-show-menu-p' is `abbreviate'.
 204
 205 *** `yas-visit-snippet' ignores `yas-prompt-functions'.
 206
 207 *** `yas-buffer-local-condition' restricted to trigger-key expansions by default.
 208
 209 *** `yas-load-snippet-buffer' (`C-c C-c') in `snippet-mode' has been much improved.
 210
 211 *** New variable `yas-expand-only-for-last-commands', thanks Erik Postma.
 212
 213 *** New variable `yas-extra-modes' aliases old `yas/mode-symbol'.
 214
 215 *** New `yas-describe-tables' command.
 216
 217 *** New `yas-define-condition-cache' macro.
 218 This defines an optimised function for placing in a `# condition:'
 219 directive that will run at most once per snippet-expansion attempt.
 220
 221 *** Mirrors can occur inside fields.
 222
 223 *** New `# type: command' directive.
 224 This feature is still largely undocumented.
 225
 226 *** A hidden .yas-setup.el is loaded if found in a snippet directory.
 227
 228 *** `yas-wrap-around-region' can now also be `cua' (undocumented feature).
 229
 230 *** Make menu groups automatically using new .yas-make-groups file.
 231
 232 *** Per-snippet keybindings using `# keybinding:' directive.
 233
 234 *** More friendly `yas-expand-snippet' calling convention.
 235 This breaks backward compatibility.
 236
 237 *** The `# env:' directive is now `# expand-env:'.
 238
 239 *** Setup multiple parent modes using new .yas-parents file.
 240
 241 ** Fixed bugs
 242
 243 *** Github #281: jit-load snippets in the correct order.
 244
 245 *** Github #245: primary field transformations work inside nested fields.
 246
 247 *** Github #242: stop using the deprecated `assoc' library.
 248
 249 *** Github #233: show direct snippet keybindings in the menu.
 250
 251 *** Github #194, Googlecode 192: Compatibility with `fci-mode'.
 252
 253 *** Github #147, Googlecode 145: Snippets comments were getting inserted.
 254
 255 *** Github #141, Googlecode 139: searching buffer in embedded elisp works slightly better.
 256 Issue is still open for analysis, though
 257
 258 *** Github #95, Googlecode 193: no more stack overflow in org-mode.
