## [Unreleased]

## [0.16.0] - 2021-08-31
* Plugins don't crash zellij anymore on receiving mouse events (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/620)
* A universal logging system has been implemented (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/592)
  * Added [`log`](https://docs.rs/log/0.4.14/log/#macros) crate support for logging within Zellij
  * Messages sent over the `stderr` of plugins are now logged as well, bringing back `dbg!` support!
* Add displaying of the `session-name` to the `tab-bar` (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/608)
* Add command to dump `layouts` to stdout (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/623)
  * `zellij setup --dump-layout [LAYOUT]` [default, strider, disable-status]
* Add `action`: `ScrollToBottom` (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/626)
  * Bound by default to `^c` in `scroll` mode, scrolls to bottom and exists the scroll mode
* Simplify deserialization slightly (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/633)
* Fix update plugin attributes on inactive tab (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/634)
* New pane UI: draw pane frames - can be disabled with ctrl-p + z, or through configuration (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/643)
* Terminal compatibility: support changing index colors through OSC 4 and similar (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/646)
* Fix various shells (eg. nushell) unexpectedly exiting when the user presses ctrl-c (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/648)
* Fix line wrapping while scrolling (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/650)
* Indicate to the user when text is copied to the clipboard with the mouse (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/642)
* Terminal compatibility: properly paste multilines (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/653 + https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/658)
* Terminal compatibility: fix progress bar line overflow (http://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/656)
* Add action to toggle between tabs `ToggleTab`, bound by default to [TAB] in tab mode (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/622)
* Terminal compatibility: properly handle cursor shape changes in eg. Neovim (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/659)
* The resize and layout systems have been overhauled (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/568)
  * Resizing a terminal then returning it to its original size will now always return panes to their original sizes and positions
  * Resize mode resizes panes by 5% of the space on screen, not some fixed number
  * Panes on-screen keep their ratios – a screen split 50/50 between two panes will remain 50/50 even as the terminal is resized (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/issues/406)
  * The terminal can now be resized without leaving fullscreen mode
  * Layout parts are split into equal percentages if no explicit split-size is given (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/issues/619)
  * Fixed display of the tab bar at small terminal widths
* Add `tabs` to `layouts` (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/625)

  The layout has now a template, and tabs section.
  The template specifies the location a tab is inserted in with `body: true`.

  Eg:
  ```
  ---
  template:
    direction: Horizontal
    parts:
      - direction: Vertical
        borderless: true
        split_size:
          Fixed: 1
        run:
          plugin: tab-bar
      - direction: Vertical # <= The location of
        body: true          # <= the inserted tab.
      - direction: Vertical
        borderless: true
        split_size:
          Fixed: 2
        run:
          plugin: status-bar
  tabs:
    - direction: Vertical # <= Multiple tabs can be
    - direction: Vertical # <= specified in the layout.
    - direction: Vertical
  ```

  The `NewTab` action can optionally be bound to open
  a layout that is assumed to be in the new `tabs` section

  This is a BREAKING CHANGE for people that have the
  `NewTab` action already bound in the config file:
  ```
  - action: [NewTab, ]
    key: [F: 5,]
  ```
  must now be specified as:
  ```
  - action: [NewTab: ,]
    key: [F: 5,]
  ```

  Optionally a layout that should be opened on the new tab can be
  specified:
  ```
  - action: [NewTab: {
    direction: Vertical,
    parts: [ {direction: Horizontal, split_size: {Percent: 50}},
    {direction: Horizontal, run: {command: {cmd: "htop"}}},],
    key: [F: 6,]
  ```

* Add running commands to `layouts` (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/600)

  POSSIBLE BREAKING CHANGE for custom layouts:
  Plugins are under the run category now, that means:
  ```
  plugin: status-bar
  ```
  is now:
  ```
  run:
      plugin: status-bar

  `layout-dir` one can switch either the layouts to
  the new dir, or set the `layout-dir` to be the current
  `layout-dir`
