Changes

    Format the output of /QUOTE HELP (#1371, an#82). By Val Lorentz. Add /SHELP \ 
as default alias (an#83)

    /SET resolve_reverse_lookup setting was removed (#1034, #1135)

    Irssi will try to connect on IPv4 if IPv6 connection failed (#1146). By \ 
Shivaram Lingamneni

    The display system now renders formats on the fly (#1079, #1188, #1191, \ 
#1192, #1204, #1205, #1209, #1349, #1355, an#13, an#14, an#28, an#29, an#36, \ 
an#37, an#49)

    This major change will break scripts that try to modify printed text during \ 
“print text” signal (#1189). They need to be ported to modify the text \ 
during “print format” instead. It also breaks the usage of using /FORMAT to \ 
add different colours to a line. Such usage needs to be ported to using $expando \ 
variables instead. Affected scripts include format_identify.pl, \ 
friends_peder.pl, nickcolor.pl, nm.pl, people.pl

    The “gui print text finished” and “gui print text after finished” \ 
signals gained a TEXT_DEST_REC *parameter in the process.

    A new “gui render line text” signal is available to change the rendering \ 
of a line

    made the $Z expando (time) dynamic (#1087, #1207, #1208)

    This change breaks the usage of /SET timestamp_format to supply a custom \ 
displayed time stamp. Affected scripts include binary_time.pl

    /HILIGHT -priority now affects which hilight rule gets applied (#1228, #1232)

    The NAMES list is now hidden by default if there are more than 18 users on \ 
the channel (an#7)

    To revert to the previous behaviour

    /SET show_names_on_join_limit -1

    -tls_verify is now enabled by default (#1170, an#18, #1309, an#23, #1343, #1351)

    This may cause an ugly display of notls_verify in the output of /SERVER \ 
LIST, even on plain-text connection, on old configs. Kindly remove the \ 
“tls_verify = “no”;” entries from your config file manually.

    Irssi will now attempt STARTTLS if advertised (#1170, #1312, an#19)

    Use -disallow_starttls if you absolutely do not want this

    In order to check for a STARTTLS advertisement, Irssi will now wait for a \ 
response (even an error) to CAP LS 302. If your bouncer/server does not want to \ 
communicate before receiving USER/PASS at all, use -nocap to disable the CAP \ 
check.

    Channel sync requests (WHO, MODE) are now sent “later” than user \ 
commands. This should improve responsiveness to user commands in the autojoin \ 
phase (#1300, an#26, an#32, an#33)

    Irssi is now using full paths in #include directives and consequently does \ 
not add all directories to the include path anymore (#1040)

    The Build System was ported to Meson (#1064, #1065, #1068, #1071, #1072, \ 
#1073, #1074, #1075, #1084, #1085, #1118, #1166, #1223, #1224, #1245, #1313, \ 
#1314, an#31)

    Scriptassist was changed to use a YAML database (#1163)

    It will tell you when you need to update your setting

    /BIND shows all partial matches (#1155)

    Cleanup of unused functions (#1017, #1132, #1145, #1182, #1246, #1264)

    Functions removed:

    NET_CALLBACK
    NET_HOST_CALLBACK
    RESOLVED_NAME_REC
    net_gethostbyaddr_nonblock
    net_connect_nonblock
    [ SIMPLE_THREAD_REC, simple_init, simple_readpipe ]
    hash_save_key

    Functions deprecated:

    dec2octal
    g_timeval_cmp
    get_timeval_diff

    Function names corrected:

    g_input -> i_input
    g_istr -> i_istr
    g_io_channel -> i_io_channel
    g_hash_free_value -> i_hash_free_value
    remove g_free_true
    gslist -> i_slist
    glog_func -> i_log_func
    glist -> i_list

    If multi-version compatibility is desired, module authors can find an \ 
example of backwards compatible code in cdidier/irssi-xmpp#55

(#1097, #1107, #1124)

theme writers need to take into account if desired.

    Add support for IRCv3 setname (#1093, #1104, #1254, GL#33)

    Add support for IRCv3 account-notify (#1100, #1098, GL#33, #1105, #1131). \

GL#33, #1105)

    Add support for IRCv3 chghost (#1096, GL#33, #1105)

    For servers with broken chghost implementation that fill the status window \ 
with host changed messages, one may add “quote cap req -chghost” to the \ 
-autosendcmd or, if the host change messages are entirely undesired, “/format \ 
-delete host_changed”

    Add support for IRCv3 server-time. /SET show_server_time to enable (#1108)

    Add support for logging IRCv3 server-time. /SET log_server_time to disable \ 
(#1318, an#16)

    Add IRCv3 features to signals.txt (#1111)

    In particular, “message join” now takes 2 additional arguments, script \ 
and module authors must beware of this change.
