Keep track of changes for enjoy .

[0.6.0] - January 10, 2025

• changed: symbolic links are no longer followed for all files, meaning that paths are passed over to RetroArch executable as symlink if its one, instead resolving to its target
• new: option -l, --resolve to follow symbolic links on Rom files
• new: option -s, --shader to force a specific shader preset
• new: option -S, --shader-directory to set a specific directory for --shader
• changed: previous short option -s for --strict changed to -p
• removed: no debug builds provided anymore

[0.5.0] - April 18, 2024

• changed: the options parser and help text from -h or --help has no longer colored output and is reorganized
• changed: if an empty "" entry is included, then entire program assumes nothing is given, in example following does not work: enjoy mario.smc "",
• changed: logo slightly updated and corrected
• changed: pandoc no longer used to convert README.md to HTML with Makefile
• renamed: CHANGELOG.md to CHANGES.md
• removed: install.sh and uninstall.sh scripts removed
• internal: some code refactor, formatting and dependency upgrades

[0.4.0] - September 18, 2022

• new: option -v, --version to display the current version information of the app
• new: option -s, --strict to turn option --filter into strict mode, case sensitive and no longer adding stars around the pattern automatically (meaning it matches exactly the name and not somewhere in the middle of filename), example: -sf "Super" won't match "Super Mario Land.gb", but -sf "Super*" will
• changed: -f, --filter can be used multiple times, all of them have to match to get a result (works only as commandline option)
• changed: multiple custom core names under section [cores] in user settings ini file can be specified in one line separated by space, example: gb gbc = sameboy
• changed: if a game ROM is not found and option -x is active, then simulation of the process will continue and no longer stops, this allows running other options such as -n with non existing games to quickly check associated file extension, example: -xn ..sfc
• changed: wildcard support for directory rules implemented, only supported wildcards are star * (none or any number of characters) and question mark ? (exactly one any character), example: [~/Emulatoren/games/psx\*]
• changed: directory rules are exact match now, no longer is it compared if the game path "starts" with the directory path, also trailing basckslash is optional
• changed: internal library updated to respect the order of rules in the configuration for priority reasons, first match of a rule will be used, this is not considered a bug, because the order was not important before
• new: option -o, --config-path to print the fullpath of the user settings ini file
• changed: previous short option -o for --open-config is renamed to-O and will no longer print path
• changed: logo rework

[0.3.0] - September 2, 2022

• new: option -n and --list-cores to list all custom core names in section "[cores]" from user configuration, if a game is given too then only matching cores to the game will be printed
• new: option -W and --which-command, similar to --which but will print complete commandline used to run RetroArch
• changed: option -o and --open-config will now print path to the config too
• changed: better error message if a game file is not found, pointing to the file it was looking for
• bug: annoying error message when game run just fine, now checks for "exit status: 0" instead "exit code: 0"
• internal: replaced or updated some backend libraries
• internal: updated code base to Rust Edition to 2021
