Revision history for Perl extension Linux::DesktopFiles.

0.26  2024-10-03

    - Added support for subcategories.

0.25  2017-10-22

    - `parse_desktop_file()` and `parse_desktop_files()` are now context-sensitive, returning a key-value list or a HASH reference, depending on the context.
    - Documentation improvements.

0.24  2017-10-21

    - When `keep_unknown_categories` is true and a given entry does not belong to any category, `parse_desktop_file` will set `Categories` to [`unknown_category_key`].

0.23  2017-10-21

    - Escaped strings are now unescaped.
    - Added the `parse_desktop_file` method, which parses a single desktop file.

0.22  2017-10-04

    - Make sure the category names are unique, so we don't store an application twice under the same category.

0.21  2017-09-21

    - Fixed a minor bug for icon names that contain one or more dots (e.g.: "foo.bar.baz").
      Thanks to Erik Dubois for reporting this issue (https://github.com/trizen/obmenu-generator/issues/16).

0.20  2017-09-15

    - Added support for desktop IDs.
      When a desktop entry is located under a local directory,
      it will overwrite an existent file with the same basename.
    - Removed the support for resolving absolute icon paths, as it was broken beyond repair.

0.13  2017-06-03

    - Fixed a potential infinite loop for circular inherited icon directories.

0.12  2016-10-17

    - Removed the no-op `keep_empty_categories` option.
    - Documentation improvements.

    - When a file does not have a `Name`, use the name of the file.
    - Added the GitHub repository URL.

0.09  2015-01-29

    - More performance improvements.
    - Added the "parse" method which can parse a list of desktop files.
    - Removed the "iterate_desktop_files" method. (it's faster to use the "get_desktop_files" method instead)
