https://github.com/mailchuck/PyBitmessage/releases/tag/v0.5.6v0.5.6Fixes:
portable mode on Windows now detects correctly where the binary is located. On OSX it has been improved but still not fully correct
infinite maximum acceptable difficulty was replaced with a huge but realistic setting
when running from python, button names and such are correctly localised
starting a new instance now pops up the window of the old instance (does not always work on linux though)
large messages load contents on demand as you scroll, do not freeze the interface anymore
large folders load about 6 times faster
bundled Python (for Windows/OSX executables) upgraded to 2.7.11
bundled OpenSSL (for Windows/OSX executables) upgraded to 1.0.2e. This version fixed some security bugs. I don't think that any of them affect PyBitmessage but an upgrade won't harm
and some smaller fixes
New features and enhancements
addresses and message subjects can be copied to clipboard
when replying to a channel message, you can choose to reply to channel or sender
HTML is automatically detected and such message can be switched to and from HTML mode by a single click
links in HTML can be opened, but it shows a warning (links can deanonymise you or result in you downloading malicious software)
hidden option that can prevent addresses from sending ACKs (not fully smooth yet)
users can contact support (me) directly from the interface (Help -> Contact support). It will fill out basic info about the system, like PyBitmessage version, platform, etc, so that I don't have to do guesswork.
Windows executable is packed with UPX and has smaller size
Windows executable is tested and built on Windows XP and should run on all more recent Windows versions too
OSX executable is tested and built on OSX 10.7.5 Lion, and should run on all more recent OSX versions too
More work was done on non-programming side, like creating VMs, etc.
