Hello all,
Here's a brief update on what's been happening with Lagrange since the
initial v0.1 release.
I've just released v0.4 today with preliminary audio playback support.
You can now listen to Ogg Vorbis and WAV files using an inline audio
player. It works the same way as the image viewer.
First and by far the most important, I'd like to echo John Cowan's effusive praise. Lagrange is nothing short of insanely great.
I noticed a couple odd things, though:
First, in the category of "I don't know if it's wrong, but it _is_ different and I'm not sure I like it": I went to <gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/users/> and multiple spaces in link text are being collapsed into one space. In the source, the link lines look like:
=

In amfora, a command-line TUI client, the dates are right-aligned if you've got a wide-enough terminal, but in Lagrange, multiple spaces are collapsed into one and each line is kind of hard to read because of the raggedyness of it all.
For the second, I noticed that the ASCII art at "midnight.pub" didn't look right compared to amfora. I wanted to check the source text at <gemini://tilde.team/~m15o/> to see what was going on, but when I hit ⌘S, I got:
I wasn't expecting this error message at all, considering it's (1) only my ~/Downloads and (2) <gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/users/> downloads just fine to it from Lagrange and (3) amfora saves "~m15o.gmi" just fine there when I hit C-s in it. …and hm. The ASCII art there isn't backticked. I should go pester the author to wrap it all in
