  - Bugfix
    - fixed  a regression  that made  the program  crash when  adding an
      attachment to a post.

* 2021-05-23 version 0.8.0
  - New features
    - [gemini]
      - Added a table of contents (TOC) window when a gemini stream is completed.
        The TOC is auto-generated from header lines contained in the gemini text;

    - the position and width of the notification window is now customizable by
      users using configuration files.

    - Bugfix
      - [gemini]
        - prevented rendering gemini files in the message window when a toot
        is shown.
        - fixed parsing of quoted lines, an empty line can be a valid quote.
        - recognized gemlog's subtitle (if presents);
        - if VISUAL  or EDITOR contains  invalid editor's path  and no
          editor is specified in the configuration file print an error
          instead of jump to the debugger.

    - Improvements
      - When the  user try to authenticate  the program on a  server a
        success message is returned on the browser (thanks op!).
      - do not load  configuration files if command  line options '-h'
        or '-v' are used;
      - if no editor is specified in  the config file the program look
        for  values  of environment  variables  EDITOR  or VISUAL  and
        fallback to ed  if the variables are not setted  or have empty
        value;
      - improved appearance of the tree of available keybindings.

* 2021-05-06 version 0.7.0

  - New features
    - added "tour mode" to save a "temporary bookmark" of links as explained here:

      gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/users/solderpunk/gemlog/gemini-client-navigation.gmi

      As  an extension  of the  idea above  the command  accepts space
      separated list  of link index  or link  ranges (e.g: "5-7  1 2")
      but, if a list of number  is not recognized by the software, the
      input from user is used  as a regular expression matching either
      the link name or the link URI.

  - Bugfix
    - [gemini]
      - fixed crash  when opening a  gemini page longer than  one opened
        before.  When user  switched from a page to  another shorter the
        window scrolling position was not restored, pointing outside the
        actual text line counts;
      - Fixed  bug that  let users  stuck in  a loop  when going  back in
        history to an URI with a redirect;
      - fixed bug when  creating temporary  file, name was not unique;
      - fixed rendering of gemini page, there was problems wrapping text;
      - fixed bug that prevented to open a local file using a tilde as
        an alias for $HOME
    - prevented a  crash when  a search was  started but  not actually
      performed because of wrong input (i.e. empty input) and the user
      tried to open the link window
