WriteFreely for Mac v1.0 beta 1

The first beta of WriteFreely for Mac! Please note that this is pre-release software, and users may be subject to bugs, app instability, and potential data loss.

Known Issues

• This app does not include an update mechanism; upgrading it may require that it be uninstalled first and a new version installed in its place.
• Line spacing does not take effect when creating a new post; to see the post with proper line spacing, add a few words, go to another post, and then come back to the new post.
• The emoji picker (CTRL + CMD + SPACE) does not work in the post editor.
• The app may crashes when switching between blogs in the sidebar.
• Upon minimizing the app, clicking the dock icon does not restore the window; to do so, go to the Window menu and select the window with the diamond (♢) next to it.

• Added short extracts of the post body to the post list when the post has no title.

Changed

• Local posts are no longer deleted when logging out.
• The app now requires you to confirm when logging out, and indicates how many local edits will be lost by doing so.
• Various editor improvements:
  • The cursor now focuses on the title field, and brings up the keyboard when loading a post in the editor.
  • The Return key navigates from the title field to the body field.
  • The title field now automatically increases its height as the text wraps.
  • Increased the line spacing in both the title and body fields.
• When logged out, the app now only shows the "Drafts" list, rather than the "All Posts" list.
• Buttons that handle network requests (e.g. publishing, reloading from server) now show a busy indicator while waiting to complete the task.
