 # Installation
+**Important:** *Shell completions (both Bash and ZSH) may require additional configuration on some distributions - please see [this page](https://github.com/rwinkhart/sshyp/wiki/Completions) of the wiki for support.*
+
 Please see the [installation guide](https://github.com/rwinkhart/sshyp/wiki/Installation) in the sshyp wiki for directions specific to your distribution/OS.

 Pre-built packages exist for Haiku, FreeBSD, Alpine Linux, Arch Linux, Debian/Ubuntu Linux, Fedora Linux, and Termux. These can be downloaded from the releases page.

-Requests for additional distribution/OS support can be filed as issues.
+Support for additional environments, such as MacOS and OpenBSD, is coming soon.

 Extensions are available in the [sshyp-labs](https://github.com/rwinkhart/sshyp-labs) repository.

-Bash completions can be enabled by installing your distribution's "bash-completion" package and restarting your terminal.

 # Building
-Since sshyp is written entirely in Python, it doesn't need to be compiled. It does, however, need to be packaged for installation.

+
+- Bash completions are now much faster due to the use of recursive globbing

+sshyp v1.4.0
+
+the argumentative agronomist update
+
+this release overhauls sshyp's argument system and further streamlines
+the experience with optimizations and the removal of legacy features
+
+compatibility-breaking changes:
+
+- there are no technical breaking changes, but the UX has changed significantly due to the new argument system (detailed below)
+
+user-facing features:
+
+- when typing an entry/folder name, it is now always the FIRST argument
+    ^ e.g. instead of "sshyp copy -p /example/test", it would now be "sshyp /example/test copy -p"
+    ^ this allows more easily editing the previous command to copy/edit a different field
+- better extension integration
+    ^ extensions can now ship with a config file that sshyp can use to call them from standard sshyp arguments
+    ^ the first extension supporting this is sshyp-mfa
+    ^ if sshyp-mfa v1.4.0.1+ is installed, "sshyp /example/test copy -m" will copy MFA keys to your clipboard
+- entry/folder names now MUST be specified as arguments
+    ^ there is no longer a separate input prompt if the entry/folder name is not provided as an argument
+    ^ the input prompt was a legacy feature from before arguments could specify entrys/folders with shell completion
+    ^ the entry list generated by entry_list_gen() is still present and can be viewed by running "sshyp" with no arguments
+- better Bash completions
+    ^ now correctly places backslashes to escape spaces in entry/folder names
+    ^ slightly faster than the previous iteration
+- IPv6 configuration support
+
+fixes/optimizations:
+
+- replaced "+=" with ".append" when extending lists to prevent creating an additional list
+- optimized usage of "str.split()" and replaced it with "str.splitlines()" where applicable
+- more concise "if... in ()" syntax replaces long "if" statement chains
+- lists have been substituted with tuples where applicable
+- entry_list_gen() has been re-written to be much smaller and faster
+- os.path is now used in place of pathlib.Path in areas where it is faster
+- the user's home directory is saved to a variable to prevent running expanduser() every time it is needed
+
+other notable changes:
+
+- removed some uncommonly used, redundant arguments
+    ^ e.g. "-rm", "-s", "delete"
+    ^ their functionality was NOT removed, just their redundant arguments, since "shear", "sync", and "del" are the accepted syntax
+- errors containing entry/folder names reinforce correct syntax by adding leading/following slashes where necessary
+- thanks to pull request #25, there are new error messages for the read shortcut
+    ^ includes when no entry name is provided or the entry name only refers to a directory
+- directories provided in user input are no longer denoted by a following slash
+    ^ instead, os.path is used to determine if the user is referring to a file or directory

+sshyp v1.3.0
+
+the serious shepherd update
+
+this release ties up many of sshyp's loose ends where there was
+room for major performance, compatibility, and security improvements
+
+compatibility-breaking changes:
+
+- due to a near full re-write of the syncing functionality, all clients and servers
+must be updated to this release (v1.3.0 is not backwards compatible with any prior release)
+- it is recommended to either delete the contents of ~/.config/sshyp/deleted (on the server-side)
+or sync all of your clients before updating
+    ^ old entries in this folder will throw errors with v1.3.0
+
+user-facing features:
+
+- none - all changes were under-the-hood - the user experience should be
+exactly the same as v1.2.0 - just faster, less buggy, and more secure
+
+major fixes/optimizations:
+
+- a near full re-write of the syncing functionality
+    ^ all syncing logic has been moved into sshync.py (from sshyp.py and sshypRemote.py)
+    ^ in my setup, a dry, local "sshyp sync" went from 2.00+ seconds (v1.2.0) to 0.36 seconds (v1.3.0)
+        ^ the performance improvements are even greater when syncing from outside your local network
+- the following character sequences will no longer break the syncing logic: "@", "^&*", and "*&^"
+    ^ ASCII separator characters 29-31 are now used, instead
+- os.system has been replaced with subprocess.run in all cases, shell=True is no longer used with subprocess.run
+    ^ this protects against shell escape attacks and potentially makes sshyp more compatible with some environments
+- replaced shell commands with python built-in library functions where applicable
+    ^ this brings speed and compatibility improvements
+- sshyp should no longer incorrectly assume an X11 environment when Wayland is in use
+    ^ this fixes clipboard support in some Wayland environments, such as Sway (Plasma/Gnome/Phosh were unaffected)
+- sshyp now uses the default pinentry on Haiku thanks to haikuports/haikuports#7457
+    ^ this brings the Haiku port in-line with the other sshyp packages in terms of security
+- "python3" is now called over ssh, rather than "python"
+    ^ some environments do not have a "python" symlink, or it links to "python2" - changing this increases compatibility
+- fixed an issue from v1.2.0 where renaming threw an error if not in offline mode
+
+other notable changes:
+
+- quick-unlock password input is now hidden while the user is typing
+    ^ user input is now invisible to prevent snooping
+- lots of smaller optimizations not listed here

-sshyp v1.2.0
+sshyp v1.4.1

-the brisk bahh update
+the argumentative agronomist update - patch one

-this release focuses on speeding up the sshyp user experience by adding
-new features that reduce wasted time
-
-compatibility-breaking changes:
-
- new configuration options (quick-unlock, offline mode) have been added and
-the configuration files have been reorganized
-    ^ simply running "sshyp tweak" and following the setup wizard will correct any compatibility
-    issues
- for quick-unlock security, device names have been replaced with more secure device ids
-    ^ older device names are still compatible, but for security reasons it is recommended
-    to delete any pre-existing device names from the server and allow "sshyp tweak" to re-register
-    your devices
+this release improves sshyp's shell completions by adding zsh support and significantly optimizing and improving Bash support

 user-facing features:

- quick-unlock mode has been added
-    ^ this allows you to use a shortened version of your password by verifying that your device
-    is whitelisted on your sshyp server - it's both faster and more secure than standard unlock,
-    but it requires an active connection to your sshyp server to authenticate (otherwise it will
-    fall back to standard unlock)
- full support for offline usage
-    ^ though sshyp could be used without a server before, it now can be configured to not attempt
-    to find one ever - this saves time and hides sync failure error messages
- bash completions have been added
-    ^ if you have bash-completion installed, you can now use the tab key in bash to auto-complete
-    sshyp arguments and entry names (client only, not added for server-specific arguments)
-        ^ if you do not have bash-completion installed, you can source
-        /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/sshyp (Linux/BSD) or
-        /boot/system/data/bash-completion/completions/sshyp (Haiku) in your ~/.bashrc to
-        use this feature
+- zsh completion support
+	^ ensure modern completions are enabled in your ~/.zshrc

 fixes/optimizations:

- fixed entries with multi-word titles failing to decrypt
- password generation is now much faster and more resource efficient
- there is no longer a length limit on generated passwords
- improved visual consistency of help menus
- rarely used modules are now imported only when needed
- sshyp now uses one fewer configuration file
+- Bash completions are now much faster due to the use of recursive globbing
+- Bash completions have been modified to be functionally similar to the new zsh completions

 other notable changes:

- sshyp is now specifically licensed under the GPL-3.0-only (keyword: only)
- sshyp now has some possible arguments and its own help menu when running in server mode
- temporary files in /dev/shm are now generated with more complex names
- sshyp now installs in /usr/lib/sshyp (Linux/BSD) or /system/lib/sshyp (Haiku) instead of
-/usr/bin or /bin (it is still symlinked to the old directories)
+- some official packages now use more space-efficient compression
