+title: Howl 0.6 released!
+location: Stockholm, Sweden
+---
+
+We are very happy to announce the release of [Howl](http://howl.io/) 0.6!
+
+It's been some time since the last release, but good things come to those who
+wait :) Highlights of this release are mentioned below and the full changelog
+since 0.5 is included at the bottom of this blog post. Thanks to all of our
+contributors!

+
+### File search support
+
+One of the major new features in Howl 0.6 is the support for quickly and easily
+searching files within the current project. This new feature is supported by two
+new commands, the `project-file-search` command (bound to `ctrl_shift_f` by
+default) and the `project-file-search-list` command (bound to `ctrl_shift_g` by
+default). These two commands serves multiple use cases that should make editing
+and coding easier.
+
+The `project-file-search` command is great for quickly navigating around in your
+code base, or to easily preview different usages or occurences. Just press
+`ctrl_shift_f` on the current word and you'll see a list of all matching
+occurences, allowing you to both see all usages and navigate to the location of
+your choice. As you'd expect from Howl in general you'll get live previews for
+all matches in the list (and syntax highlighted matches at that):
+
+![project-file-search](/images/screenshots/monokai/project-file-search.png)
+
+You can preview the matches by moving up and down in the list, and choose to
+navigate to a specific location by pressing `enter`.
+
+There's also the new `project-file-search-list` command. While the previous
+`project-file-search` command is great for quick navigation and previewing,
+another use case (especially when coding) is to process all occurences of a
+particular hit. As an example, you might want to refactor a particular function
+and need to update or verify all usages of it. In this scenario
+`project-file-search-list` is your friend. Instead of presenting all hits in a
+popup list for navigation, this command will instead show all the matches in a
+buffer, allowing you go through and check off each match.
+
+![project-file-search-list](/images/screenshots/monokai/project-file-search-list.png)
+
+You can navigate the buffer as you would do a normal buffer, and you can
+navigate to a specific occurence by pressing `enter`. Any visited items are
+marked visually in order to help you keep track of what items you have
+processed. You can also manually mark results as processed or not processed by
+pressing `space` on a specific occurence. You can turn on automatic previews for
+the search results by pressing `p`, and turn them off using `escape`.
+
+Under the hood searching is accomplished by utilizing a particular "searcher".
+Howl ships with built-in support for the [Ripgrep
+(rg)](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep) searcher and the [silver searcher
+(ag)](https://geoff.greer.fm/ag/), and also provides a native Howl searcher in
+case neither of those are present. You can of course also provide your own
+searcher if you like by registering one with the
+[file_search](/doc/api/file_search.html) module.
+
+_See also: the [docs](/doc/manual/files.html#searching-files) for file
+searching._
+
+### Navigation support
+
+Together with the new file search comes the support for general buffer
+navigation. Particularly when coding a lot of time is spent navigating back and
+forth between various files, or between different locations in the same file.
+
+To help with that the 0.6 release ships with three new commands:
+
+- `navigate-back`, bound to `ctrl_<` by default
+- `navigate-forward`, (bound to `ctrl_>` by default
+- `navigate-go-to`, bound to `alt_<` by default
+
+The `navigate-back` and `navigate-forward` commands allows you to go back and
+forth to previous locations of interest, while the `navigate-go-to` command will
+present you with a list of previous locations that you can choose from. While
+it's easy to see how useful this is coupled with the new file search
+functionality, navigation support is useful even when not performing file
+searches. There are a lot of other ways for navigating files, such as ordinary
+searces, buffer structure navigation, etc. where it's useful to be able to
+quickly go back and forth, so make sure you get into the habit of using the new
+feature!
+
+_See also: the [docs](/doc/manual/files.html#navigating-buffers) for navigating
+buffers._
+
+### File selector performance improvements
+
+There has been some work spent since the last release on improving the
+performance of the file selector, as well as improving the user experience for
+potentially long-running operations. This was documented in a previous blog
+post, ["File selection
+improvements"](/blog/2017/12/15/file-selection-performance.html), so while we
+won't reiterate that here and encourage you to read the blog post instead know
+that with 0.6 opening files is faster then ever :)
+
+### A new theme
+
+0.6 ships with a new built-in theme, [Dracula](/screenshots/dracula.html):
+
+![dracula](/images/screenshots/dracula/project-file-search-list.png)
+
+Click on the link above to see it in its full glory, and if you're interested in
+more then please also have a look at the additional themes listed in the
+[Howl wiki](https://github.com/howl-editor/howl/wiki/Howl-Bundles#themes).
+
+### The journal buffer
+
+Did you ever wonder if you missed a status update in the status bar, or wondered
+about one you saw earlier? Then the new journal buffer comes to the rescue!
+Simply run the `open-journal` command in the command line to see earlier log
+messages .
+
+### In closing
+
+As ever, there are a lots of changes that haven't been mentioned here, so have a
+look at the changelog since 0.5 below for more information (which is probably
+not complete either). We'll aim for doing more timely releases in the future,
+but we also like to remind every one that the master branch is intended to be
+stable at all times, so if you want to get the latest developments as they
+happen then you shouldn't be afraid to jump on the train.
+
+Code with the pack!
+
+## Full Changelog since 0.5
+
+- Added `navigate-go-to` command, for going back to a specific previous
+location.
+
+- Added support for a "journal" buffer showing the Howl log, available via
+`open-journal`.
+
+- Ensure loaded buffers contain valid UTF-8 at all times
+
+- C: Support for lexing raw strings
+
+- Rust: Improved lexing
+
+- Added support for specifying line and column when opening files, e.g.
+
+```shell
+$ howl my-file:10
+
+$ howl my-file:10:2
+```
+
+Works both when opening a file locally or remotely using `--reuse`.
+
+- Added support for custom user fonts (place them in <CONFIG-DIR>/fonts, e.g.
+~/.howl/fonts)
+
+- Added `project-switch-buffer` command that displays open buffers within
+the current project.
+
+- Added two inspectors and a command for documentation to the Go mode
+
+- Moving cursor left or right with a selection active now cancels the selection,
+leaving the cursor at the corresponding end.
+
+- Added proper structure support for C/C++ mode
+
+- Base scheme support on the newer lisp mode instead of old basic mode
+
+- Added the `**popup_menu_accept_key` option, for controlling which key accepts
+the current option for a popup menu, such as the completion popup. Valid values
+are 'enter' (the default) or 'tab'.
+
+- Close completion popup when user activity warrants it (e.g. direction keys,
+clicking in another location using the mouse, etc.)
+
+- Added new built-in theme: Dracula
+
+- Added integrated and fast project file search functionality via two new
+commands: `project-file-search` and `project-file-search-list`
+
+- Javascript: Support for ES6 templates and new keywords and operators
+
+- Performance and functionality improvements for the matcher, used in Howl
+selection lists, enabling fast matching across much larger data sets.
+
+- Performance improvements for recursive file selections (`project-open` and
+ordinary recursive `open` command): Between 30x and 32x faster.
+
+- Respect use_tabs option when commenting
+
+- Ensure scrolling works correctly for Gtk+ 3.4
+
+- Dart bundle enhancements: improved syntax highlighting
+
+- Added support for activities - potentially longer running activities that
+should run in a apparently blocking way to the user. Example: Loading files from
+larger directories will now be run as a user visible and user cancellable
+operation if it takes to long to complete.
+
+- Added a new commandline flag, `--run-async`, for running a particular file in
+a asynchronous Howl context.
+
+- Added support for shared, low precision after timers
+
+- Added options for controlling scrolling speed
+
+- Add support for smooth scrolling events (needed for Wayland with two-finger
+scrolling)
+
+- Fixed background drawing for Wayland/Weston/CSD environments (borders outside
+of the window).
+
+- Requested that titlebar is hidden for newer versions of Gnome 3.
+
+- Added support for navigating back and forth in a list of previously visited
+locations. Two new commands, `navigate-back` and `navigate-forward` were added,
+bound to `ctrl_<` and `ctrl_>` respectively.
+
+- Improved key translation for keys when caps lock is on.
+
+- Better Python lexing
+
+- Added two new commands, `editor-newline-above` and `editor-newline-below`,
+that insert a new line above/below the current line. Bound these commands to
+`ctrl_shift_return` and `ctrl_return`.
+
+- Auto detect line endings when opening a file if possible
+
