* Release v3.12.1
    * Update tests to reflect the %f/%F changes implemented in v3.12

Mon, 06 Apr 2026 11:13:12 +0200  Birte Friesel <derf+feh@finalrewind.org>

* Release v3.12
    * Disallow %f and %n format specifiers in --action and --info strings;
      abort with an error message if those are encountered. Use %F and %N
      instead. Rationale: %f and %n do not escape shell-specific syntax and
      are thus a security risk when passing untrusted file names to feh. %F and
      %N, which have been available since v2.3 (Feb 2012), do escape
      shell-specific syntax. Migration path: Replace %f (or '%f') and %n (or
      '%n') with %F and %N (without '') in --action and --info commands.

 - Support DOS-style \r\n line breaks when loading filelists. Note that they \ 
will be saved with UNIX-style \n line breaks regardless of input format. This is \ 
intentional.
 - Fix --action, --info, --title and similar commands hard-coding the maximum \ 
length of the formatted output to 4095 characters.

Log message:
graphics/feh: update to 3.11.2

 - Fix zoom_fit not centering the image correctly if the window is larger than \ 
the image
 - Fix rendering bugs introduced by attempts to fix a --scale-down rendering \ 
issue in v3.11 and v3.11.1
 - Note that this fix comes at the cost of slightly more visible flashing in \ 
some cases where feh has to (re-)render an image multiple times, especially if a \ 
fixed size is forced by the window manager. While this behaviour can be \ 
annoying, it is certainly less annoying than incorrect image offets.
 - Thanks to Awal Garg for several joint debugging sessions related to the above \ 
rendering issues.

Features
 - Various operation modes:
     - Slideshow: Show all files in or below a directory, change slides with \ 
your keyboard or automatically after a delay
     - Thumbnail: List files as clickable thumbnails
     - List: ls-like output with image dimensions etc.
     - Multiwindow: Open all images at once
 - optional HTTP/FTP support via libcurl
 - Can be used as wallpaper setter; supports rxvt transparency
 - Filelist support
 - Lots of configurable keyboard shortcuts; well usable without a mouse
 - Custom actions (shell commands), e.g. for sorting images
