Haiku improves application ratings and saving addresses |
|
The Haiku project has published their November newsletter which highlights changes and improvements being worked on in the spiritual successor to BeOS. Some of the key changes make little adjustments which make using some applications more convenient. "humdinger fixed Tracker to display half-star ratings on files instead of rounding to the nearest whole star. He also added 'Reset rating' menu actions to MediaPlayer and ShowImage, to allow file ratings to be easily reset.
apl made some performance improvements to HaikuDepot's loading procedure, including to defer loading sizes or skip it all together when unnecessary, using buffered reads and reusing text buffers during JSON parsing, and more. He also started a refactor of the data-model generation code, writing a new parser generation script and adjusting the generated code for performance, among other changes.
humdinger fixed Mail's 'Save address' command to automatically open 'People' with the email and name fields already populated if no contact file yet exists for that email address. (This involved adjusting 'People' to accept such initial values.)" |
