Hello all! I've transferred KeyboardChatterBlocker from my personal projects org into Frenetic LLC's GitHub org. Frenetic LLC is a software company I myself founded and lead development for (so don't worry, this isn't a take over, there's no monetization or ads or whatever, the project is still free and open source and awesome).

Frenetic LLC is a new game development company, but we make a point of developing and releasing free & open source software that gamers, game developers, and nerds in general will appreciate - and, well, "nerds and developers" is exactly the category of people using mechanical keyboards, so this project fits well in the Frenetic secondary projects purview.

Anyway, on to the update in this release:

  • New: Signed executables! The Frenetic LLC code signing key is cross-signed by Microsoft. This means when you download the .exe or installer, you won't get that nagging popup about unfamiliar files anymore, Windows Defender now trusts this as a legitimate program published by a legitimate company!
  • New: The project has an official Discord now, if you want to talk to other nerds with slightly broken mechanical keyboards (what an oddly specific interest but hey I don't judge) https://discord.gg/eggWVJt
  • New: There's now an "Other Settings" tab, so you can find some new settings, and that "Measure From" setting that was previously config-file-only.
  • New: #41 - There's now an option (under "Other Settings") to save the Stats tab data to a persistent file, so you can track data across longer durations.
  • New: #37 - There's now a hotkey showform so you can hide/show the UI with a hotkey
  • New: #37 - There's now a config-only option disable_tray_icon, to be used with the showform hotkey, to avoid cluttering your tray while hidden in the background
  • New: #40 - There's now a proper interface to add the "weird" keys like enter or tab (the ones that don't respond right to hitting them in the autodetect form)
  • New: #54 - There's now a Other Keys Reset Timeout option (under "Other Settings") which if checked will not count chatter if you switch keys (so eg you can type adadadada rapidly without being blocked, only aaaa will be blocked)
  • Improved: #43 - Chocolatey releases are now kept up with some helper scripts, so Chocolatey users can reliably keep up with any updates to KeyboardChatterBlocker.
  • Fixed: #53 - Error when doubleclicking grid headers
