Clink

• Explicitly disable loadlib and related support in Lua; Clink uses a statically linked Lua engine and does not support dynamic C libraries.
• Fixed the onprovideline event so it doesn't interfere with the same_dir mode of prompt.transient.
• Fixed input line coloring of echo in for %i (1 2 3) do @echo %i (regression introduced in v1.6.16).
• Fixed how clink autorun set parses flags and quotes, so that clink autorun set \"c:\my tools\clink\" inject --autorun works as expected.
• Fixed the exec.commands setting when an argmatcher uses :chaincommand().
• Fixed edge cases for @ command prefix when an argmatcher uses :chaincommand().
• Fixed #779; an argmatcher

• Fixed TAB expansion of foo ~ when there is no argmatcher for foo.
• Fixed #772; uninstall fails to uninstall autorun if the logged on user is not an administrator.
• Fixed #773; unexpected completion behavior after a doskey alias command.

• Fixed #763; transient prompt has blank line after it if the input line is the width of the terminal (regression introduced in v1.7.0).
• Fixed #765; inside a batch script, setlocal interferes with injecting Clink (regression introduced in v1.1.1).

• Fixed some unnecessary work that was performed when starting the Lua engine (a tiny performance boost).
• Fixed os.getcwd() when the LongPathsEnabled regkey is set.
• Fixed the application manifest for the clink_*.exe programs to mark them as longPathAware (this doesn't affect CMD; while Clink is injected in CMD, then CMD's manifest is what controls long path awareness).
• Fixed the oncommand event when using clink-popup-history to select and execute a command from history.
• Fixed #756; Clink could potentially think it wasn't elevated when running as LOCAL_SYSTEM or the builtin Administrator account.
• Fixed #758; avoid crashing in a pathological case where something else abuses CMD by injecting background threa

v1.7.18

• Fixed #752; clink config theme use {name} reports an error (regression introduced in v1.7.17).

v1.7.17

• Added "4-bit Enhanced Defaults.clinktheme" color theme which approximates the "Enhanced Defaults" colors using only 4-bit terminal colors.
• Added a clink config theme save -d flag to save a color theme with placeholders for color settings whose current value matches its default value. Loading a color theme saved this way resets those colors to whatever default values are defined at the moment the file is loaded.
• Changed the default behavior for throttling Lua coroutines. By default there is no throttling anymore. The new lua.throttle_interval setting can be used to enable throttling of Lua coroutines if they cause

• Added "4-bit Enhanced Defaults.clinktheme" color theme which approximates the "Enhanced Defaults" colors using only 4-bit terminal colors.
• Added a clink config theme save -d flag to save a color theme with placeholders for color settings whose current value matches its default value. Loading a color theme saved this way resets those colors to whatever default values are defined at the moment the file is loaded.
• Changed the default behavior for throttling Lua coroutines. By default there is no throttling anymore. The new lua.throttle_interval setting can be used to enable throttling of Lua coroutines if they cause responsiveness issues. Prior to this, the throttling interval had been hard-coded to 5 seconds, but now it's configurable and is 0 by default (no throttling).
• Changed rl.getpromptinfo()

• Fixed potential crash after pressing Home and then deleting the first word in the input line (regression introduced in v1.7.15).

• Fixed the sequence of characters clink echo reports for Ctrl-Bkspc.
• Fixed an issue where the match.expand_abbrev setting could accidentally move the cursor position when trying to complete x:\does_not_exist.
• Fixed input line coloring to refresh the display if clink.argmatcher() registers a new argmatcher in response to an event such as clink.oncommand.
• Fixed extra prompt(s) that could printed if a luafunc: command used rl_buffer:beginoutput() and then rl.invokecommand() to invoke another luafunc: command that did the same, nesting multiple times.
• Fixed negative numeric arguments with rl_buffer:getargument() and rl_buffer:setargument().
• Fixed potential heap

• Added a new clink.scroll_offset setting which controls how many lines to show above or below the selected item in popup lists or the clink-select-complete command (default is 3).
• Changed clink set name to include the default value of the named setting.
• The Antares clinkprompt now allows configuring the characters for showing the previous command's exit code (refer to the Antares.clinkprompt file for details).
• The clink-diagnostics and clink-diagnostics-output bindable commands also show the current *.clinkprompt custom prompt file, if any.
• Fixed a problem where Esc could leak or corrupt history undo lists when used after searching history (the problem existed since v0.1 in 2012).
• Fixed the clink-show-help command to s

• Added an error message when clink set fails to write the clink_settings file (e.g. no permission or the file is marked read-only).
• Added logging when clink inject is slow.
• Added keyboard info in clink echo --verbose.
• Condensed the logging during clink inject, but if an error occurs while hooking system APIs then it automatically emits verbose logging instead of condensed logging.
• Fixed the maximum vertical scroll position limiter to include the input hint row when using the legacy Windows conhost.
• Fixed #732; Executable Completion does not recognize .LNK files.

• Fixed what io.popenyield() returns upon failure; previously it accidentally only returned nil, and now upon failure it returns the usual values (nil, error message, error code).
• Fixed #727; custom prompts can crash Clink when cd into a path that exceeds MAX_PATH length.
