matterhorn v40600.0.0 Release Notes

  • 🚀 This release supports Mattermost server version 4.6.

    🆕 New features:

    • Rebindable keys are now supported! See /help keybindings for details. Matterhorn also checks for conflicting bindings on startup.
    • The user status list now supports the Do Not Disturb status (shown as ×).
    • User typing notifications are now supported. These are off by default but can be enabled with the showTypingIndicator configuration setting. Enabling the feature causes Matterhorn to produce such notifications for the server and to display typing indications from other users. Thanks to Abhinav Sarkar for this feature!
    • Matterhorn now remembers which channel was visited when the client is closed and returns to that channel on startup. Thanks to Abhinav Sarkar for this feature!

    🆕 New commands:

    • /message-preview now toggles message preview mode in addition to default M-p keybinding.

    🐛 Bug fixes:

    • New post reactions no longer cause a post to be indicated as "(edited)" (#333)

    💻 UI changes:

    • The channel list shown by /join now also displays the channel purpose for each channel when possible.

    🐎 Performance improvements:

    • Matterhorn now has much lower input latency on servers with very large numbers of users due to user list rendering performance improvements.

    Miscellaneous:

    • This release now uses only version 4 API endpoints, consistent with the upstream deprecation of version 3 API endpoints in the 4.6 release.
    • Startup requests are now performed concurrently to improve performance (#347, thanks to Abhinav Sarkar)
    • Channel header strings containing newlines are now rendered more effectively: newlines are converted to spaces. This behavior more closely matches the web client, too.
