[GNU ELPA] Indent-Bars version 0.8.1

[ELPA update]

Version 0.8.1 of package Indent-Bars has just been released in GNU ELPA.
You can now find it in M-x list-packages RET.

Indent-Bars describes itself as:

  ===============================
  Highlight indentation with bars
  ===============================

## Summary:

  indent-bars highlights indentation with configurable vertical
  graphical bars, using stipples.  The color and appearance (weight,
  pattern, position within the character, zigzag, etc.) are all
  configurable.  Options include depth-varying colors and
  highlighting the indentation depth of the current line.  Bars span
  blank lines, by default.  indent-bars works in any mode using fixed
  tab or space-based indentation.  In the terminal (or on request) it
  uses vertical bar characters instead of stipple patterns.  Optional
  treesitter support is also available; see indent-bars-ts.el.

  For Developers:

  To efficiently accommodate simultaneous alternative bar styling, we
  do two things:

                        INDENT-BARS - CHANGELOG
                       ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━





1 v0.8.1 (2024-10-19)
═════════════════════

  • Guard against unspecified `default' (backup) face
    foreground/background colors, as on TTY with `tty-color-mode=no'.
  • Improve compatibility with other packages that directly call
    `font-lock-flush'.
  • Ensure `indent-bars--ts-mode' is disabled when toggling off
    `indent-bars-treesit-support' in a buffer.


2 v0.8 (2024-10-09)
═══════════════════

  • New configuration setting `indent-bars-display-on-blank-lines=least'
    which specifies using the /minimum/ bar depth of adjacent non-blank
    lines for blank line bar display (by default, when enabled, the
    /maximum/ is used).
  • `BUGFIX' Guard against custom-set errors when tree-sitter is
    enabled, but no scope stanza is present for the buffer's language.
  • Make `indent-bars-no-descend-lists=nil' by default (to avoid
    confusion in brace and paren languages).
  • Allow `indent-bars-no-descend-string=all' to inhibit /all/ bars
    inside multi-line strings.
  • `BUGFIX' Use correct offset guess when derived from
    `python-base-mode'.
  • Be more careful when replacing/restoring
    `font-lock-fontify-region-function'.
  • Ensure `indent-bars--ts-mode' is fully disabled when `indent-bars'
    is disabled.


3 v0.7.6 (2024-09-28)
═════════════════════

  • Improve speed of disabling indent-bars.
  • `BUGFIX' Eliminated introduced bug leading to args-out-of-range
    error.
  • `BUGFIX' Correctly enable font-lock inhibit.


4 v0.7.5 (2024-09-26)
═════════════════════

  • Allow configuring `indent-bars-no-descend-lists' with a list of
    list-open chars to consider (e.g. in c-modes, where {})
  • Protect against frame unavailability in daemon server mode.
  • Handle empty stipple `:pattern' strings.
  • Cancel current depth timer on tear-down.
  • `BUGFIX' Ensure `indent-bars--ts-mode' is fully removed when
    indent-bars is disabled.
  • `BUGFIX' Fix issue where bar faces would be unspecified on new
    frames after resetting or customizing.


5 v0.7.4 (2024-09-18)
═════════════════════

  • Include NEWS and badge for ELPA

7 *v0.7.1* (2024-09-14)
═══════════════════════

  • Added ADA, GPR, and `typescript-ts' support.
  • Avoid issues when mixing TS and non-TS modes.
  • Ensure colors work with themes that do not specify background or
    foreground of specified bar faces.


8 *v0.7* (2024-07-24)
═════════════════════

  • New optimized jit-lock approach for treesit scope.
  • Slightly streamlined default styling.


9 *v0.6.1*  (2024-05-30)
════════════════════════

  • Live feedback when updating settings in the Customize interface.
  • Simplify tree-sitter scope drawing.

    in-scope and out-of-scope style.


10 v0.5.2 (2024-04-21)
══════════════════════

  • Ensure all old tree-sitter scopes regions are correctly invalidated
    when the scope is updated.


11 v0.5.1 (2024-04-16)
══════════════════════

  • Correctly handle tree-sitter scope highlight when multiple windows
    show the same buffer.


12 *v0.5* (2024-04-08)
══════════════════════

  A major new release with many added features and improvements.

  • Stipple-based bars are now free from artifacts when the same buffer
    appears in multiple windows.
  • Position-aware tree-sitter /scope focus/ with fully configurable
    in-scope/out-of-scope styling.
  • Theme-awareness: bar styling gets updated on theme change (e.g. for
    depth-based colors).
  • Two new highlight selection "methods" including a new default
    ("context").
