Thanks to all involved in this release.

ELinks 0.13.4: -------------- Released on 2020-07-31. * fixed segfault with gnutls. introduced in 0.13.3 * updated smart and dumb prefixes to https. Thanks Guido Cella. PR #54 * added the st terminal to config options. PR #55 * doc updates PR #57 * also pass the uri as %u to external handler. Thanks sgerwk. PR #58 * added the ui.clipboard_file config option ELinks 0.13.3: -------------- Released on 2020-06-29. * configure option --with-luapkg=name You can choose lua version at compilation time. For example: --with-luapkg=luajit * config option connection.ssl.https_by_default (Thanks Guido Cella) not enabled by default * docs updates (Guido Cella) * fixes related to ui.mouse_disable and xterm-like terminals (Thanks sgerwk) * show an alert when the search string is not found (sgerwk) ELinks 0.13.2: -------------- Released on 2020-05-31. * command line option -remote search(...) (thanks sgerwk) * command line option -bind-address * config option ui.mouse_disable (sgerwk) * config option ui.tostop * config option ui.sessions.fork_on_start * compatibility (compilability) with lua-5.2 and 5.3 * modified cookies code (not well tested) ELinks 0.13.1: -------------- Released on 2020-01-31. * Fixed issue with uploading files to local cgi. * Python scripts in contrib converted to python3. ELinks 0.13.0: -------------- Released on 2019-12-27. Incompatibilities: * The protocol.fsp.sort option has been removed. ELinks always sorts. * bug 1024: Verify the host name or IP address in the server certificate if connection.ssl.cert_verify is not 0. Miscellaneous: * The configure script is no longer part of tarball, you must generate it. For example running ./autogen.sh * major bug 181: Slave ELinks processes can now run an external editor. This used to work in the master process only. * major bug 722: Filter CSS according to media types. New option document.css.media. * bug 638: Propagate the existence of $DISPLAY from slave terminals to mailcap test commands. * bugs 762, 1082: Small memory leak in goto_current_link/goto_imgmap * bug 963: New option document.css.ignore_display_none. * bug 977: Fixed crash when opening in new tab a non link with onclick attribute. * bug 1008: File upload fields in HTML forms now stream the files to the server, instead of reading them to memory in advance. This lets you upload larger files. The downsides are that ELinks may use a cached response even if you have modified a file between requests, and that ELinks can send inconsistent data if you modify a file while it is being uploaded. * bug 1054: Don't abort downloads when closing the terminal from which they were started. When such a download ends, display the message in the most recently used terminal. If the user chooses ``Background and Notify'' via the download manager in some terminal, reassociate the download with that terminal. These changes do not apply to downloads to external handlers. * Really retry forever when connection.retries = 0. * enhancement: Session-specific options. Any options changed with toggle-* actions no longer affect other tabs or other terminals. * Do not crash when document.browse.minimum_refresh_time = 0 and a document has a meta refresh with a delay of 0. * Properly update link highlighting and status bar information when the repeat prefix is changed. * Handle SSL rehandshakes * Fix compatibility with Ruby >= 1.9 * enhancement 15: Domain-specific options. Use set_domain in elinks.conf to e.g. disable cookies for google.com. The option manager window does not yet support this. * enhancement 867: Use bracketed paste mode on xterm. This requires xterm patch #228 or later configured with --enable-readline-mouse. * enhancement 824: Experimental support for combining characters. See features.conf for details. * enhancement: Add a new entry Link Info under Link main menu. * enhancement: Indicate backgrounded downloads using an unused led. * enhancement: Display the number of ECMAScript interpreters that have been allocated for documents in the Resources dialog. * Fedora enhancement 346861: Add support for nss_compat_ossl library (OpenSSL replacement). * enhancement: ``elinks --dump'' uses box-drawing characters if supported by the charset. * enhancement 1070: Support 256 colors on fbterm-1.4. * enhancement 1075: Scrolling the entire contents of dialog boxes. Especially useful for multi-file BitTorrent downloads. * Report if the Lua function edit_bookmark_dialog receives the wrong number or types of arguments instead of silently failing. * enhancement: Add ``Invalidate'' button to the cache manager. * enhancement: Add ``Search contents'' button to the cache manager with which one can search through the cache items' data rather than their metadata. * enhancement: Add rudimentary support for the HTML5 media elements,
