  cookies.db, history, queue and search.

  mv $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/vimb/{bookmark,closed,command,cookies.db,history,queue,search} \
      $XDG_DATA_HOME/vimb
  
  # and same for existing profiles
  mkdir $XDG_DATA_HOME/vimb/<ProfileName>

Added

• Allow to change following webkit settings during runtime
  • allow-file-access-from-file-urls
  • allow-universal-access-from-file-urls
• Added #define CHECK_WEBEXTENSION_ON_STARTUP 1 to config.def.h to enable
  checks during runtime if the webextension file could be found. Hope that
  this helps user to fix compile/installation issues easier.

  using names marks.

Changed

• New created files in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/vimb are generated with 0600
  permission to prevent cookies be observed on multi users systems. Existing

  hand.

  (Thanks to Patrick Steinhardt).

  vimb instances.

  start the editor, load another page, come back and paste the edotor contents
  (thanks to Sven Speckmaier).

  bookmarks without loading the page first.

  If first char is '0' generate numeric style labels else the labels start with

  • 'hint-keys=asdf' -> 'a s d f aa as ad af'
• Show versions of used libs on 'vimb --bug-info' and the extension directory
  for easier issue investigation.
• During hinting JavaScript is enabled and reset to it's previous setting after
  hinting is done might be security relevant.

  checkboxes and radiobuttons of forms.
• Rename 'hint-number-same-length' into 'hint-keys-same-length' for consistency.
• Search is restarted on pressing 'n' or 'N' with previous search query if no

  older systems.
• Fixed undeleted desktop file on 'make uninstall'.
• Fixed window not redrawn properly in case vimb was run within tabbed.
• Fixed cursor appearing in empty inputbox on searching in case a normal mode
  command was used that switches vimb into command mode like 'T' or ':'.
• Fixed hint labels never started by the first char of the 'hint-keys'.
• Fixed items where added to history even when 'history-max-items' is set to 0
  (thanks to Patrick Steinhardt).
