- Pillow 4.2 changed api
Comix 4.0.11

Comix 4.0.5
- Added a Ukrainian translation by Олександр Заяц.
- Added a Galician translation by Roxerio Roxo Carrillo.
- The German translation updated for Comix 4 by Chris Leick.
- Added support for BMP images in archives. Thanks to Nathaniel Moseley.
- The status bar now displays the filename of the viewed image files also
in archives.
- Fixed a bug that caused the wrong background colour to be used with the
dynamic background colour preference on some systems. Thanks to Nathaniel

when using double page mode.
Comix 4.0.4

when trying to open a file when the file type filter had been reset to
blank. This bug seems to only appear on some systems, probably depending
on the installed GTK+ version.
- Fixed a bug that caused the error message for unfulfilled dependencies
to not be printed properly.
- The rar/unrar program is now invoked in such a way as to keep broken
or incomplete files extracted from RAR archives, since Comix might be

- French translation updated by Benoît H.
- Added a feature to automatically rotate images according to their
EXIF tags.

- Comix preferences and data now reside in the $XDG_CONFIG_HOME and
$XDG_DATA_HOME directories instead of in ~/.comix/.
- Some minor interface enhancements.

- Internal filenames in archives created by the archive editing dialog
no longer contain temporary filename cruft.
Comix 4.0.1

- Polish translation updated by Darek Jakoniuk.
- Russian translation updated by Артем Смирнов.
- Simplified Chinese translation updated by Xie Yanbo.
- Re-added the "flip pages when scrolling off the page" preference
from previous Comix versions. Thanks to Mamoru Tasaka.
- Added a portability module for handling home directories in a more
portable way. Thanks to Oddegamra.
Comix 4.0.0
- Comix has been completely rewritten from scratch. On the surface things
look quite a bit like they used to, but the internal workings are
entirely new. There are too many changes for them all to be mentioned
here, but a couple of highlights are a much more functional library and a
new archive editing dialog. The work on this new version of Comix has
been going on in rather sporadic phases for almost two years, and during
that time I have received help from lots of different people. Now, I must
admit, I can no longer remember them all. So instead of trying to list as
many as I can here, I will instead simply say thank you to everyone who
have contributed fixes, patches, suggestions or encouraging words. Thanks!
Comix 3.6.5
- Applied security fix patches to handle unsecure tempfile creation and
character escaping in filenames. Thanks to Mamoru Tasaka and others for
the patches.

- Added a Indonesian translation by Andhika Padmawan.
- Added a Czech translation by Jan Nekvasil.

- Fixed a bug in the thumbnailer, comicthumb, failing to create thumbnails
for Zip and tar archives.

Comix 3.6.3
- Added a Hungarian translation by Ernő Drabik.
- Added a patch by Abdullah Hamed that fixes so that the arrow keys can be
used to flip pages also when not in fit-to-screen mode when the
corresponding preference is set. Just like was possible only with the
scroll wheel before.
- Fixed a bug with opening certain Zip files. Thanks to Steve Juranich for
the fix.
- Fixed a bug concerning %'s in filenames.
Comix 3.6.2
- Added Japanese translation by Mamoru Tasaka.

- Updated Brazilian Portuguese and Dutch translations.
Comix 3.6
- Added an "Adjust colour" dialog that lets you specify values for
brightness, contrast, saturation and sharpness.
- Improved the behaviour of the "Save window position and size" and
"Default fullscreen" preferences.
- Changed the "Save window position and size" preference to on by default.
- Changed the menus a bit.

resolution screens.
- Improved handling of Zip files containing files with filenames of an
unknown character encoding.

install into a non-existing directory.
- Added a --no-balloon option to install.py that tells the Nautilus
thumbnailer to not imprint balloon images on thumbnails by default.
- Fixed a bug that could cause Comix to scale images to the wrong
dimensions on a dual-screen setup. Thanks to Vegard Eriksen for this fix.
- Fixed a bug that caused icons to not be loaded when starting Comix
through a symbolic link not located in the same directory as the `comix`
executable.
- Fixed a bug that could cause an error message when going back to a
previous archive by flipping backwards in double page mode and directly
switching to single page mode afterwards.
- Fixed a bug that caused Comix to treat empty files as tar archives.
Thanks to Christoph Wolk for this fix.
- Fixed a bug in comicthumb with thumbnailing rar archives, plus
some cleanup. (Christoph Wolk)
Comix 3.5.1
- Fixed a bug that caused the mode of all images to be reported as
"unknown" instead of RGB/CMYK etc.
- Fixed a bug that could cause an error when trying to quit Comix under
certain circumstances (i.e. when there is no ~/.comix/menu_thumbnails/
directory present).
Comix 3.5
- Added a bunch of new icons, including a new "logo".
- The magnifying lens code has been polished a bit. It is now
substantially faster so the lens should appear less choppy.
- Added horizontal and vertical lossless JPEG flip commands.
- Added a JPEG desaturation command.
- Added support for SVG, PCX, PNM, PBM, PGM, PPM, Targa and Sun raster
image files.
- Rearranged the toolbar a bit and added tooltips to it.
- When a directory is given as a command line parameter, Comix now
recursively searches for cbr, cbz and cbt files as well as image files.
- Changed install.py so that it aborts installation if the required
dependencies are not found.
- Fixed a bug that caused the space key to not scroll down when in double
page mode and manga mode and the window is wider than the pages.

when using the "fullscreen as default" preference.
- Fixed a memory leak in the magnifying lens code.
- Some internal and some minor changes.
Comix 3.4
- Added more image data to the properties dialog.
- Added a "delete image" command that can remove single images from Comix.
It is currently not possible to remove image files within archives.
- Added lossless JPEG rotation commands. It is currently not possible to
rotate image files within archives. The `jpegtran` program (part of the
jpeg library) must be present for this to work. Comix can still run as
normal without `jpegtran`, but then without the new JPEG rotation
capabilities.
- Changed the buttons in the toolbar.
- Improved the space key smart scrolling mode so that it automatically
performs all the sideways scrolling as well.
- Added a preference to set the magnitude of the space key scroll in
percentages of either the window size or the page size.
- Added a Traditional Chinese translation by Hsin-Lin Cheng.
- Comments are now displayed using a monospaced font.
- Comments can now be dragged around with the mouse just like an image.
- Directories can now be given as command line parameters as well as
files. If a directory is given it will be recursed into and the first
image file found will be loaded.
- Improved cover guessing of comicthumb and the library a bit.
- Handling of files that have filenames encoded with the wrong
character encoding is now more sturdy.
- Fixed a bug that could cause outdated thumbnails to be left in the
~/.comix/menu_thumbnails/ directory when running multiple instances of
Comix at the same time.
- Applied a workaround for a bug(?) in WindowMaker that caused the "Open
dialog" to be invisible while in fullscreen mode when using WindowMaker.
The same problem applies to the library window, but there is no
workaround for that in place currently.
- Fixed a bug that could cause no images to be displayed when turning
double page mode off, then on again and flipping to the next couple
of pages in that order.
- Some minor changes.
Comix 3.3
- Added a slideshow feature.
- Added RGB colour histogram to the properties dialog. More data will be
added in future versions.
- Added a Catalan translation by Carles Escrig.
- Rewrote install.py from scratch.
- Fixed a bug that caused compressed tar archives to be presented as
plain tar archives.
- Fixed a bug that could cause invalid page numbers in bookmarks when
re-adding an already present bookmark.
- Some minor changes.
Comix 3.2.1
- Added support for the `rar` program in addition to `unrar` to handle
RAR (.cbr) files.
- Updated Polish translation by Kamil Leduchowski.
- Some minor changes.
Comix 3.2
- Changed PyGTK requirement to version 2.8 or higher.
- Added a "Fit width mode" and a "Fit height mode" that automatically
scales images to fit the width or height of the window.
- Default filenames for extracted images are changed to
<archive_name>_<page>.<ext> from <page>.<ext>.
- Moved the manga mode setting from the preferences dialog to the menus.
- Redesigned the library interface a bit. The background colour is now
fixed and does not change with the background colour of the main window.
Default thumbnail size is now 128x128 px, and thumbnails have a border to
make them more clearly separated.
- Added Greek translation by Paul Chatzidimitriou.
- Xie Yanbo updated the Simplified Chinese translation.
- Changed the menu icons for "Open library..." and "Add to library". The
icons are taken from the Silk Icons set at www.famfamfam.com.
- Broken images are now correctly handled by the thumbnail sidebar.
- The workaround against a problem with unrar applied in version 3.1.3 has
been removed again. It created some new problems with archives that
have multiple files with the same filename in different subdirectories.
- Fixed a bug so that translations and extra icons are always available
when running Comix from the source directory, no matter what directory is
the current working directory.
- Fixed a bug in the "Go to page dialog" that caused the page to not be
changed when manually typing in a new page number and pressing Enter.
- Some minor changes.
Comix 3.1.3
- Added Polish translation by Kamil Leduchowski.
- Updated French translation by Achraf Cherti.
Comix 3.1.2
- Fixed a bug which caused ALL files to be added to the library when
adding in recursive mode instead of just archives. Also, only files with
cbz, cbr or cbt as filename extension will now be added in recursive mode
to avoid adding cruft files with the same magic numbers as the archives.
Comix 3.1.1
- Added automatic dependency checking to install.py.
- Added error messages and graceful exit from Comix in the case of missing
dependencies.
- Applied a workaround for a bug(?) in unrar that caused problems with
some RAR archives containing directories with invalid filename encodings.
Thanks to François Ingelrest.
- Updated French translation by Achraf Cherti.
- Changed the "Use stored thumbnails for images in archives" preference to
off by default.
- Changed the "Go to the next archive in directory after last page"
preference to on by default.
Comix 3.1
- Created a new convert dialog that is built from the standard GTK+ save
dialog. It now supports saving in different directories etc.
- Added an "Extract image" menu item that lets you extract individual
images from the archive.
- Added support for recursive adding of archives to the library.
- Added a Frech translation by Achraf Cherti.
- Fixed a bug which rendered the magnifying lens and the ability to drag
images around with the mouse useless in some situations, and with some
certain versions (7.0?) of X.org.
- Pressing enter in the "Go to page" dialog entry now has the same effect
as pressing OK.
- Applied a workaround for a bug(?) in certain builds of PIL that made
Comix crash when it tried to draw page numbers on thumbnails. Now Comix
simply ignores the page numbers if this problem occurs and imforms the
user that a different version of PIL is required, instead of crashing.
Comix 3.0.1
- Added a Dutch translation by Arthur Nieuwland.
Comix 3.0
- Major cleanup of the entire code base.
- Completely redesigned the properties dialog.
- Comix now stores a list of the 10 last viewed files. It also updates the
~/.recently-used file as is proposed by the freedesktop.org standard.
Thanks to Jose M. daLuz.
- Added an "Add to library" menu item.
- Redesigned the library window slightly.
- Added an Italian translation by Raimondo Giammanco.
- The Nautilus thumbnailer, comicthumb, has been updated by Christoph Wolk
to support subarchives among other things.
- Added a preference to set the size of the magnifying lens. Thanks to
Jose M. daLuz.
- Added a scalable svg icon.
- Improved handling of files without read permission.
- Fixed a bug which caused the recommended name for a converted directory
of images to be the same as one of the image files plus filename extension
instead of the name of the directory plus filename extension. Thanks to
Manuel Quiñones.
- Fixed a bug with the magnifying lens which could appear when using it in
double page mode and manga mode, possibly showing the images as if not in
manga mode.
- Fixed a bug which caused unnecessary reloading of files from disk when
resizing images that is already in memory in double page mode.
- Fixed a bug which could cause the wrong image to be displayed when
continuously flipping forward really fast in cache mode.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 2.9
- Added a comic book library feature to Comix. Comic book archives can be
added to the library through a dialog or by drag and drop. The comic books
appear as covers in the library window where they can be browsed or
opened. They can be easily filtered by typing in regular expressions.
- When dropping multiple files on the Comix main window, the first file
gets opened now instead of none.
- The convert dialog now saves the last used archive type.
- Fixed a memory leak when creating new thumbnails from files.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 2.8
- MIME types for cbz, cbr and cbt archives are now registered by default.
Use the --no-mime flag for install.py to skip it.
- Added a thumbnailer (by Christoph Wolk) that lets file managers create
thumbnails for cbz, cbr and cbt archives. Currently it is only supported
by Nautilus and does not affect other file managers. It is installed if
the --no-mime flag is not given to install.py. Nautilus has to be
restarted before the thumbnailer is activated.
- Added a "Hide all" menu item which hides menubar, toolbar, statusbar,
scrollbars and thumbnails at once.
- Added an option to only display a single image in double page mode if
that image consists of two pages. An image is assumed to consist of two
pages if it's width is greater than it's height.
- Filename is now displayed as well as directory name when viewing images
in a directory in single page mode.
- Changed max zoom to 1000% to prevent X server resource drains.
- F11 can now be used to toggle fullscreen mode.
- Fixed a bug which caused the cursor to be invisible when dragging around
an image in fullscreen mode.
- Fixed a bug which removed the drag and drop functionality.
- Fixed a bug which could cause the scroll wheel to stop working when
displaying the magnifying lens by pressing the middle mouse button,
holding down the right mouse button and letting go the middle mouse button
again.
- Fixed a bug which could cause the chess board pattern background for
small transparent images to be zoomed in or out when changing size.
- Fixed a bug which could cause changes of saturation in small images to
not be updated when changing it and changing it back again.
- Fixed a bug which could cause the images to be scaled incorrectly when
the "Use smart scaling in double page mode" preference was set.
- Fixed a bug which caused the thumb selection not to be updated when
moving from page two to page one in double page mode.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 2.7
- Improved image quality through dithering in 16 bits per pixel. Thanks to
John Ellis, the author of GQview, for helping me with this.
- Added previews of files in the "Open" dialog. Stored thumbnails are used
when they exist, otherwise previews are created directly from the files.
Previews of archives are also available, but only when thumbnails have
already been stored for that archive.
- The cursor is now only being hidden when it has been idle for two
seconds instead of always.
- Changed "Hide cursor in fullscreen mode" to on by default.
- Added chess board pattern as background for transparent images.
- Added file filters to the "Open" dialog.
- Saturation adjustment now affects the magnifying lens also.
- Added Brazilian Portuguese translation by Marcelo Góes.
- Added German translation by Christoph Wolk.
- Added a "comix.xml" file which can be installed to register cbz, cbr and
cbt mime types. Because of inconsistency on some systems, mime types are
not registered by default. Follow the instructions in the mime README file
to install. Thanks to Cristoph Wolk for this contribution.
- Changed permissions of temporary folders to octal 700 to preserve the
users privacy.
- Added page number information to thumbnails generated for archives. This
information will displayed for previews of archives if available.
- Fixed a bug which caused the image width and height information embedded
in thumbnails to be put in the wrong namespace of the PNG tEXt chunks.
- Fixed possible wrong permissions of thumbnail folders on some systems.
Permissions should now always be 700.
- Fixed a bug which caused the magnifying lens to display the wrong page
in manga mode (thanks Christoph Wolk).
- Fixed a bug which could cause Comix to crash when trying to view a very
small image scaled down so that it contained no pixels at all.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 2.6
- Comix now conforms to the thumbnail managing standard as proposed by
freedesktop.org. Thumbnails for plain image files can be read and written
to ~/.thumbnails where they are shared with other applications conforming
to the same standard. Thumbnails for images in archives can also be
stored, but due to limitations in the standard they are stored in ~/.comix
for private use by Comix only.
- Improved handling of corrupt and missing files. Comix now simply
displays a "file missing" image instead of terminating.
- Added a menu entry for the lens toggle action.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 2.5
- Added a mouse controlled "magnification lens" that can be used to zoom
in on parts of the images. It will appear while holding the middle mouse
button. Pressing 'z' can also toggle it on or off.
- Added the ability to set the size of the thumbnails.
- Improved the look of the bookmark handling features. Small thumbnails
will now be displayed for the bookmarks.
- Fixed a bug which caused one of the two images in double page mode to
remain displayed even after using the "Close" command.
- Fixed a bug which caused the "Use smart scaling in double page mode"
preference to misbehave with rotated images.
- Fixed a bug which caused the convert dialog to not automatically fill in
a new filename for files with non-UTF8 filenames.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 2.4.1
- Improved cache handling slightly.
- FIxed a bug which could cause Comix to crash when starting with the
"Save window position and size for future sessions" option turned on.
- Fixed a bug which caused only one thumbnail to remain selected when
clicking on the first of the two selected thumbnails in double page mode.
- Fixed a bug which caused Comix to always go to the first page when
reloading thumbnails in double page mode due to switching the "Show page
numbers on thumbnails" on or off.
Comix 2.4
- Added full support for internationalization (i18n). Apart from English,
Comix is now translated to Swedish, Simplified Chinese and Spanish.
- Added an option to let Comix automatically adjust the contrast of the
images so that the darkest pixel is completely black and the lightest
pixel is completely white.
- Added an option to space key "smart scrolling" feature as if in double
page mode even when in single page mode.
- Added thin borders around the thumbnails so that they should be more
easily distinguished.
- Added accelerators for more menu items.
- Fixed a bug which caused the wrong image to be displayed when viewing
the third last and the second last pages in double page mode, exiting
double page mode and flipping forward one page.
- Fixed a bug which caused Comix to display no warning when trying to
create a file in a directory where it does not have permission to do so.
Comix 2.3
- Comix now depends on the Python Imaging Library
(http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/) to handle some image
manipulations.
- Added the ability to rotate and mirror images.
- Added an option to set the contrast of the images.
- Added an option to show the page numbers in the upper left corner of
each thumbnail.
- Cleaned up the preferences dialog a bit.
- The arrow keys now flips pages in fit-to-screen mode.
- Added an option to go to the same directory as last time when opening
the "Open" dialog, instead of always going to a preset directory.
- Fixed a bug which caused comments to not be displayed until after all
thumbnails had been loaded when using the "Always view comments when
opening a new file" option.
- Fixed a bug which caused comment files in a directory, had their
extensions been added to the comment extensions list while the directory
was loaded, to not be opened correctly until the directory had been
reloaded.
- Fixed a bug which caused the scrollbars to not align themselves
automatically when switching between viewing comments and viewing images.
- Fixed a bug which caused the "Fit width", "Fit height" and "Best fit"
commands to scale incorrectly when viewing thumbnails.
- Fixed a bug which could cause the wrong image to be displayed if
switching from one page to another and back again really quickly.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 2.2.1
- Fixed a bug which caused underscores in bookmark names to be shown
as underlines for the next character.
- Fixed a bug which caused Comix to crash when trying to close the
program while loading thumbnails for an archive/directory that was
opened while loading thumbnails for the same archive/directory.
- Fixed a bug which caused some events (e.g. switching fullscreen on/off),
invoked while loading thumbnails, to be delayed until all the thumbnails
had been loaded if they were invoked more than once during this loading.
There are still some issues with events that in themself initiate the
loading of thumbnails (e.g. open new file) being delayed if invoked
multiple times during the loading. This should, however, not be a problem
in most cases.
- Fixed a bug which caused some thumbnails to not be displayed in whole
when using certain GTK themes.
- Fixed a bug which caused the selected thumbnails to not be updated
properly when switching between single page and double page mode.
- Fixed a bug which caused the thumbnail scrollbar to not update it's
length when resizing the main window.
- Made the automatic scrolling of the thumbnail pane more consequent
in double page mode.
Comix 2.2
- Added a thumbnail browser.
- Added a "smart scrolling" option for the space key.
- The number pad on the keyboard can now be used to align the image(s).
'1' takes you to the lower left corner, '2' takes you to the middle of the
bottom, '3' takes you to the lower right corner and so on for all nine
digits.
- Added an option to automatically open the last viewed page when Comix
is started.
- The zoom in and zoom out commands now zoom straight on, preserving
the alignment of the viewed image(s).
- Fixed a bug which caused images to be scaled slighty wrong during
specific window size/image size combinations.
- Fixed a bug which caused the wrong image to be displayed when jumping
two pages forward with the cache option turned on in single page mode.
Comix 2.1
- Made the dialogs more GNOME HIG compliant.
- Added an option to let the scroll wheel scroll horizontally when at the
top or bottom of the page.
- Added an option to let the scroll wheel flip pages when scrolling "off
the page".
- Added an option to use smart scaling when in double page mode and
fit-to-screen mode. The smart scaling feature makes the images scale
independently so that no space is wasted. The largest of the images is
scaled as before, but the smallest in now scaled up to fill any extra
space.
- Added an option to set the toolbar to show either icons, text or both.
- The image can now be dragged around with the middle mouse button
as well.
- If adding a bookmark for an archive/directory that is already
bookmarked, Comix now updates the page number of that bookmark
instead of adding a new one.
- Added tooltips for the preferences dialog.
- Removed the zoom entry in the preferences dialog.
- Made the cleanup of files in /tmp a bit more sturdy.
- Fixed a bug which caused the scrollbars to not align themselves
automatically when opening a new archive/folder.
- Fixed a bug which caused changes to fullscreen, fit-to-screen mode etc.
that were made while the preferences dialog was open to be reverted when
the dialog was closed.
- Fixed a bug which caused some images to appear twice if they were
packed in an archive containing multiple subfolders.
- Fixed a bug which caused some strange behaviour when (un)hiding the
menubar after a bookmark had been added/removed.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 2.0
- The text in the comments is now selectable.
- Some minor (mainly cosmetic) changes.
Comix 2.0b
- Comix 2.0b has a major speed advantage over previous versions.
I rewrote some of the code, mainly the parts concerning the caching of
images. Page flipping with the cache option turned off is now about
twice as fast as before (not counting the time it takes to scale the
image(s) since this is highly dependant on the image scaling quality being
used). Forward page flipping with the cache option turned on now seems
almost instantaneous (again not counting the possible delay to scale
the image(s)). Backwards flipping with the cache option turned on is no
longer suffering any speed penalty, it is just as fast as normal flipping
without any cache would be. The only occasion when things will be slower
with the cache option turned on is when doing irregular flipping, as from
page 1 to page 7 to page 3 etc., and even then things will seem to be
as fast as normal though some extra work is done "under the hood".
Using cache is strongly recommended from now on.
- Added a bookmarks manager that lets you add or remove single bookmarks.
- Added support for image/x-icon, image/x-xpixmap and image/x-xbitmap
image formats.
- Changed the text entry field for the default path to a button which
brings up a nice standard folder selection dialog.
- The "Flip position of pages in double page mode" option, now called
"Manga mode", automatically aligns the scrollbars to the upper-right
corner of the window when flipping to a new page.
- The "Hide menubar etc. in fullscreen" option now also affects the
scrollbars.
- Fixed a bug which caused temporary files to be overwritten when viewing
two archives in two different Comix sessions at the same time.
- Fixed a bug which caused the separators in the menus to disappear after
a while.
- Fixed a bug that caused the wrong page to be displayed when flipping
backwards one step in double page mode, switching to one page mode,
switching back to double page mode again and then flipping forward one
step, all with the cache option set.
- Lots of minor fixes.
Comix 1.6
- The next page can now be flipped to by pressing the left mouse button
on the main window. Images can still be moved around by clicking and
dragging before you release the button again.
- The "Hide cursor" option now only affect fullscreen.
- Comix now sorts files by the standard set up by the LC_COLLATE
environmental variable.
- Added a new dialog to display an error message if the convert utility
is used in some way to alter a file which the user does not have
appropriate permissions to.
- Fixed a bug with the wrong filename sometimes being shown in the
properties dialog when viewing plain image files.
- Fixed a bug with strange things happening when opening the
preferences window in windowed mode and closing it in fullscreen mode
and vice versa.
- Fixed a bug with the "Hide menubar etc. in fullscreen" option not
always working as expected.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 1.5
- Added support for forward/back buttons on mice that have them.
Thanks to Stephen Jones for this feature.
- New option to set which filename extensions should be treated as
comment files.
- New option to automatically hide menubar etc. when entering
fullscreen mode.
- Improved the look of the properties dialog.
- Fixed problems with parsing certain comment files.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 1.4
- Added support for embedded archive comments in the form of .txt or
.nfo files.
- The convert utility now creates exact copies of the directory structure
in the source archive/directory, including correct filenames.
- The zoom in and zoom out commands now zoom 15% relative to the
current size instead of 20% relative to the original size.
- Changed default image scaling quality to "Tiles" from "Hyper".
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 1.3.1
- Fixed a bug with old cached images sometimes being shown when a new
archive/directory had been opened.
Comix 1.3
- The viewed page(s) can now be dragged around by pressing the mouse
button and moving the cursor.
- New option to cache the next page for faster forward page flipping.
Continuous backwards flipping will be slower with this option. Slightly
more RAM will be used as well.
- Comix now handles manipulation of already loaded images (resizing,
changing scaling technique, etc.) more efficiently due to less disk IO.
- Fixed a bug that caused saved options to not be loaded when the
program is restarted.
Comix 1.2
- Drag and drop support.
- Changed the install.py script slightly.
- Added new error messages for the statusbar when trying to open
non-valid files etc.
Comix 1.1.2
- Applied a workaround for a bug(?) in newer versions of PyGTK, which made
the OK button in the file selection dialog return the wrong value,
rendering it useless. Thanks to neota for this solution.
Comix 1.1.1
- The "file" dependancy is no longer needed. All mime type checks are now
done internally.
- Fixed an error in the .desktop file.
- The install.py script now uses "update-desktop-database" to update the
menus properly.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 1.1

- Some minor fixes.
Comix 1.0.2
- Added support for filenames encoded with various international
character encodings.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 1.0.1
- Fixed a bug with the background colour option not working as expected
on certain systems.
