Over the past two months, significant enhancements and fixes have been made to improve the functionality and user experience of my application. So it’s about time to release them in a new version of Keepmark. I don’t think there’s any single main feature worth highlighting at the start, so I’ll just go into detail about what I’ve done.

Work on the application is moving forward. I’ve accumulated some features and fixes, so it’s probably a good time to release Keepmark 1.47.0. As in previous releases, much of the time has been allocated to the new editor, but these are not the only changes and improvements. For the start, I can mention the added integration with the Pocket service, or the ability to preview drawio files, but smaller improvements also fell in - like memory usage optimizations.

The latest release includes many smaller changes and fixes from different areas of the application. If I had to pick one of the features most exciting to me, I guess it would be the ability to search inside markdown documents. But there are others, such as the ability to open documents in new tabs in the Work Context view, or another bunch of fixes for the new markdown editor.

Returning to more regular releases, after a month of work on the new version I wanted to announce the release of the next version of Keepmark. As with the previous version, here too I mainly focused on improvements around the new editor. The new editor now also supports textpack files, and appeared in the views for creating a quick note, tasks, or creating notes for individual documents. Another improvement is additional menu in the editor triggered by ctrl+space, which allows you to work with the editor without taking your hands off the keyboard.

It’s been almost a year since the last version of Keepmark was released. A few months ago I reported that I was still continuing the work. I set myself a tough task and it took me a little more than I planned. However, it seems to me that the new functionality is ready enough to show it to the world in a working application. We are talking about the new text editor, which I wrote entirely from scratch. The default editor, for now remains the one that was there until now. With future releases, the new editor will become the default, and the old one will remain as a backup option until it is eventually dropped.
