Vifm

Hover mouse and wait a bit to start animations.

Miller mode with three columns

Miller mode with two columns and parent change keys

Transposed ls-like view

Querying state of a remote instance

Automatic size recalculation

File operations:

• Added retry/ignore/abort prompt for file copying and directory/file/symlink creation when 'syscalls' is on (thanks to einhander).
• Better detection of write errors on file copying. The error was reported, but it wasn't treated as a hard error in a specific case related to caching.

Command-line mode:

• Added :histnext/:histprev commands, which are analogous to Ctrl-I/Ctrl-O (patch by Dmitry Frank, a.k.a. dimonomid).
• Added ability to remove filename-specific highlighting rules with :highlight clear {pattern} (thanks to aleksejrs).
• Changed :filter command to accept pattern (//, ////, {} or {{}}) (thanks to rbong).
• Made :siblnext and :siblprev commands respect dot and name filters.
• Made :siblnext and :siblprev accept [count] range (thanks to filterfalse).
• Made :tree pick up list of files from custom view (thanks to filterfalse).
• Made :highlight update file-specific group on exact match of the pattern instead of appending new rule (thanks to aleksejrs).
• Remove empty directories which are specified in 'trashdir' with %r and/or %u automatically on :empty (thanks to Marcin Kurczewski, a.k.a. rr-).

:set command and options:

• Added "inode" sorting key, which sorts entries by inode number (thanks to eco0414).
• Added 'millerview' option that enables cascading columns interface for the view (thanks to sudo-nice).
• Added 'milleroptions' option that configures miller view.
• Added 'lsoptions' option that allows to get transposed grid in ls-like view (thanks to Dmitry Frank, a.k.a. dimonomid).
• Added 'previewprg' option, which can be used to override :fileviewer commands either temporarily or permanently (thanks to svenn71).
• Added {root} key to 'viewcolumns' option (complements {ext}) (thanks to Oleg Gordienko, a.k.a. gordio).
• Added "u" flag to the 'tuioptions' option. It enables use of Unicode characters in the TUI (Unicode ellipsis instead of "...") (thanks to Oleg Gordienko, a.k.a. gordio).
• Added "foldsubkeys" value to the 'suggestoptions' option. It folds multiple suggestions with common prefix into one entry (thanks to AndreaHasani).

Normal and visual modes:

• Added [r/]r/[R/]R normal mode shortcuts that map to :siblprev and :siblnext with and without wrapping correspondingly (thanks to filterfalse).
• Do not go to start of line on Ctrl-U/Ctrl-D/Ctrl-F/Ctrl-B/G in ls-like view.
• H/M/L keys in ls-like view now account for columns.
• Instead of invalidating directory size previously calculated via ga/gA on detecting changes in the directory recalculate its size and propagate update through its parents (thanks to filterfalse).

Macros:

• Added %x macro to 'rulerformat' (and thus to 'statusline') as a new name for %-, which conflicts with alignment specification and requires explicit width specifier (%0-) (thanks to Marcos Cruz).

Scripting:

• Added term() builtin function, which differs from system() only by its ability to run interactive applications without confusing vifm's interactions with the terminal (thanks to Dmitry Frank, a.k.a. dimonomid).
• Added v:count and v:count1 builtin variables. They are assigned to count passed to : command.
• Don't trigger DirEnter event with previous directory on startup when list of files is specified on stdin (thanks to filterfalse).

Invocation:

• Added --remote-expr command-line option, which gives ability to query state of an instance (thanks to Marcin Kurczewski, a.k.a. rr-).

Completion:

• Added completion of filename-specific highlight groups for :highlight command.

Color schemes:

• Added AuxWin highlight group for highlighting auxiliary parts of windows.

TUI (Text User Interface):

• Extend width of the cursor in ls-like view to the width of the cell (thanks to Dmitry Frank, a.k.a. dimonomid).
• Indicate preview created with %q with "Command: cmd".
• Duplicate status bar error in dialog that reports sourcing error.

Performance:

• Improved performance of mime-type detection when using libmagic (now might be about seven times faster by avoiding reinitialization of the library).
• Don't force file list reload after :! and rely on change detection. This should result in somewhat better performance (thanks to opennota).

Documentation:

• Documented more details about 'vicmd' and 'vixcmd' options (thanks to Sebastian Cyprych).

Vim-plugin:

• Disabled spell checking of vifm files in Vim except for comments.

Only on Windows:

• Fixed running commands with arguments on Windows when 'shell' isn't cmd.exe.

Important fixes:

• Fixed consuming 100% of CPU on certain pattern of running background processes (thanks to petRUShka).
• Fixed turning quickview into explore view when preview command doesn't contain macros. Was broken since 0.8.
• Fixed the plugin in neovim (patch by John Shea, a.k.a. coachshea).
• Fixed cloning of files like .name to produce .name(1) instead of (1).name (thanks to filterfalse).
• Fixed directory size in statusline (patch by Dmitry Frank, a.k.a. dimonomid).
• Fixed CWD of the process not matching current view after vifm picked up change in file system (patch by Daniel Mueller).
• Fixed :normal command resetting selection (thanks to filterfalse).
• Fixed stopping of put operation after copying symbolic link that's broken on destination (thanks to filterfalse).
• Fixed a "race" with file system when we could load outdated file list and thus miss some file system updates.
• Fixed reported free space on *nix (make it consistent with what 'df' reports) (patch by Dmitry Frank, a.k.a. dimonomid).
