## [0.16.0] - 2021-08-31
* Plugins don't crash zellij anymore on receiving mouse events (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/620)
* A universal logging system has been implemented (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/592)
* Added [`log`](https://docs.rs/log/0.4.14/log/#macros) crate support for logging within Zellij
* Messages sent over the `stderr` of plugins are now logged as well, bringing back `dbg!` support!
* Add displaying of the `session-name` to the `tab-bar` (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/608)
* Add command to dump `layouts` to stdout (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/623)
* `zellij setup --dump-layout [LAYOUT]` [default, strider, disable-status]
* Add `action`: `ScrollToBottom` (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/626)
* Bound by default to `^c` in `scroll` mode, scrolls to bottom and exists the scroll mode
* Simplify deserialization slightly (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/633)
* Fix update plugin attributes on inactive tab (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/634)
* New pane UI: draw pane frames - can be disabled with ctrl-p + z, or through configuration (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/643)
* Terminal compatibility: support changing index colors through OSC 4 and similar (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/646)
* Fix various shells (eg. nushell) unexpectedly exiting when the user presses ctrl-c (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/648)
* Fix line wrapping while scrolling (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/650)
* Indicate to the user when text is copied to the clipboard with the mouse (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/642)
* Terminal compatibility: properly paste multilines (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/653 + https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/658)
* Terminal compatibility: fix progress bar line overflow (http://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/656)
* Add action to toggle between tabs `ToggleTab`, bound by default to [TAB] in tab mode (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/622)
* Terminal compatibility: properly handle cursor shape changes in eg. Neovim (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/659)
* The resize and layout systems have been overhauled (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/568)
* Resizing a terminal then returning it to its original size will now always return panes to their original sizes and positions
* Resize mode resizes panes by 5% of the space on screen, not some fixed number
* Panes on-screen keep their ratios – a screen split 50/50 between two panes will remain 50/50 even as the terminal is resized (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/issues/406)
* The terminal can now be resized without leaving fullscreen mode
* Layout parts are split into equal percentages if no explicit split-size is given (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/issues/619)
* Fixed display of the tab bar at small terminal widths
* Add `tabs` to `layouts` (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/625)
The layout has now a template, and tabs section.
The template specifies the location a tab is inserted in with `body: true`.
Eg:
```
---
template:
direction: Horizontal
parts:
- direction: Vertical
borderless: true
split_size:
Fixed: 1
run:
plugin: tab-bar
- direction: Vertical # <= The location of
body: true # <= the inserted tab.
- direction: Vertical
borderless: true
split_size:
Fixed: 2
run:
plugin: status-bar
tabs:
- direction: Vertical # <= Multiple tabs can be
- direction: Vertical # <= specified in the layout.
- direction: Vertical
```
The `NewTab` action can optionally be bound to open
a layout that is assumed to be in the new `tabs` section
This is a BREAKING CHANGE for people that have the
`NewTab` action already bound in the config file:
```
- action: [NewTab, ]
key: [F: 5,]
```
must now be specified as:
```
- action: [NewTab: ,]
key: [F: 5,]
```
Optionally a layout that should be opened on the new tab can be
specified:
```
- action: [NewTab: {
direction: Vertical,
parts: [ {direction: Horizontal, split_size: {Percent: 50}},
{direction: Horizontal, run: {command: {cmd: "htop"}}},],
key: [F: 6,]
```

* Add running commands to `layouts` (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/600)
POSSIBLE BREAKING CHANGE for custom layouts:
Plugins are under the run category now, that means:
```
plugin: status-bar
```
is now:
```
run:
plugin: status-bar
```

In case of having custom layouts in the previous
`layout-dir` one can switch either the layouts to
the new dir, or set the `layout-dir` to be the current
`layout-dir`
* Fix `Makefile.toml` because of missing directory (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/580)

* Add option to start in arbitrary modes (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/513)
* Attaching to a session respects the `default_mode` setting of the client (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/549)
* Add option to specify a color theme in the config (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/550)
* Fix config options to not depend on `simplified_ui` (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/556)
* Don't rename `unnamed` tabs upon deletion of other tabs (https://github.com/zellij-org/zellij/pull/554)
