Another week, another release, runrunrun v0.3.0<\/a> is here. This release adds all the features I actually needed to start using this project myself on a daily basis.<\/p>\n

What’s New<\/h2>\n

Fallback<\/strong>: The new -f<\/code>\/--fallback<\/code> option (or RRR_FALLBACK=true<\/code>) enables automatic fallback to previous matching rules when commands fail. This is useful when some commands aren’t found on the system:<\/p>\n

https:\/\/* lynx\r\nhttps:\/\/* chromium\r\nhttps:\/\/* firefox\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
With fallback enabled, rrr -f https:\/\/example.com<\/code> will try firefox first, then chromium, then lynx until one succeeds.<\/p>\n
Alias redefinition<\/strong>: Redefining an alias now updates all rules using it, including previous ones:<\/p>\n
[video] vlc\r\n*.mkv [video]\r\n*.mp4 [video]\r\n\r\n# Now .mkv and .mp4 both use mplayer\r\n[video] mplayer\r\n*.avi [video]\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Fix in desktop file support<\/strong>: Added support for more format specifiers (%f<\/code>, %F<\/code>, %u<\/code>, %U<\/code>) in desktop files (previously we only supported %U).<\/p>\n
As always, feedback and contributions are welcome!<\/p>\n
