[:source] variable - holds HTML source of active page. Thanks to Jan Sch?nherr (janschh at users.sourceforge.net);

[:cliptext] holds clipboard text;

new query plugin parameter forcein="predefined target identifier". Forces ConQuery to open query results in targets other then defined by general settings. Valid target identifiers are:

• win_bg (force to open in the new window, on background)
• win_fg (force to open in the new window, focused)
• tab_bg (force to open in the new tab, on background)
• tab_fg (force to open in the new tab, focused)
• same_win (force to open in the same window)
• sidebar (force to open in sidebar !works for FireFox only!). Thanks to Jan Sch?nherr for sidebar code.

Note that this feature perfectly works with "opentarget" param, so your forced target could be named;

- new query plugin parameter openwin="valid Gecko params for new window here". If set, forces ConQuery to open query results in the new window with given params i.e. width, height, scrollbars e.t.c. For info on window parameters available see: Mozilla reference.

Bugfix: won't work under Thunderbird if HotMenu turned on;

Bugfix: incompatibility with some extensions;

Code clenup/improvement;

1.1 / Aug 25, 2004

FireFox 0.9 - 1.0 compatible, on-line update supported;

Thunderbird 0.6 - 0.7+ compatible (plugins with GET method only);

New search plugin parameter: ShowIfTarget=[:any_ConQuery_variable] Tells on which ConQuery variable ShowIf should perform regexp search. If omitted, ConQuery uses [:selection] variable;

Icons in search engines list is now supported;

Minor changes;

0.9 / Jan 23, 2004

ConQuery variables in "action" param of plugins are now supported. Action="[:selection]" rules now :)

several variables in one input and even variables mixed with text are now supported, i.e. value="[:host] some text [:selection][:host] some text" is acceptable;

New "Showif" behavior: ConQuery now remembers regexp's matches (with the parenthesized submatches, if any) for each of plugins. Matches are accessible through [:matched:1]...[:matched:n] variable. [:matched] and [:matched:0] holds whole substring match, [:matched:1] holds matches of first capturing parentheses, [:matched:n] holds matches of n-th capturing parentheses. If regexp does not match anything in selection, the [:matched] will contain the whole selection and [:matched:n] - nothing;

Minor changes;

0.8 / Jan 17, 2004

+ Fixed: "Show?" doesn't show hidden plugin in context menu until browser is restarted;

+ Fixed: fail to add the new tab with TBE installed.

0.8a / Jan 14, 2004

+ plugin parser performance is significantly improved;

+ plugin processing algorythm is completely restructured: no "install/uninstall plugin" from now! ConQuery works directly with configurable plugins directory. Use "block/unblock" to ignore unwanted plugins;

+ HotMenu implemented. Thanks to Henrik Gulbrandsen! Shift+RClick opens ConQuery context popup menu only;

+ New variable [:linkurl]. Thanks to Biju G C for suggestion and piece of code. This variable holds the target of rightclicked link;

+ cqr plugins pack is removed from xpi: get plugins from Repository. Note: automatic installation of plugins to user defined directory is not supported, unless it is not write protected "mozdir"/searchplugins/. Alternatively, use "Save link target" on "view plugin" to install plugin to desired dir. Please vote for Bug #15239 so I'll be able to implement this feature

+ Minor changes

0.7 / Dec 29, 2003

+ 0.7.1 fixed incompatibility issues with Moz1.6b;

+ Query charset are supported now;

+ "Preferred queries" mechanism implemented. Now you can define "showif" regexp for plugin. If regexp matches selection, the hidden plugin will be shown in separate section of ConQuery context menu. See plugin spec for details and this page for test cases

+ Minor changes

0.6 / Dec 25, 2003

+ New [:text] variable. Optional user text: unlike [:prompt], doesn't force ConQuery to bring up Query Config Dialog;

+ Restyled parser splash window. In more informative way :)
