0.8.0 — July 2023

After a long hiatus, the next update to text.management. This version adds the ability to run multiple files at once in a tabbed editor. It's a pretty straightforward UI change, but it involved a substantial rewrite of the internal architecture that should make for faster feature development. As a result, this also adds better UI for visualizing save state and a simple About page.

0.7.0 — January 2023

Added

• Added some simple idiomatic Tidal auto-indentation
• App builds are now automatically generated
• App now supports file management: creating new files, loading files, and
  saving (with autosaving by default)

Changed

• Console messages no longer display GHCi command prompts
• Updated the default theme, inheriting the OS preference for light/dark mode

Fixed

• Issue on Windows with accessing the installed Tidal version
• Undo/Redo functionality works correctly now

0.6.0 — December 2022

Initial release of the Electron-based text.management apps! Supported functionality is a bit bare-bones right now, but it does work as a serviceable Tidal Cycles editor.

All feedback (especially bugs/feature requests/things that need documentation) is welcome!

Note: Just like with other Tidal editor plugins, Tidal/GHCi/SuperCollider/SuperDirt/etc need to be independently installed. This also doesn't support file opening or saving yet, so you'll just have to manually copy code in and out (but that should be changed soon).
