Important: Please note that this version of Pukka requires Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard or higher to run. This is due to the library used for Yahoo! ID OAuth support. If you need Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger support, do not upgrade to this version.

New Features

• Added support for Delicious accounts linked to Yahoo! IDs. For more information, see this page.
• Added a preference to adjust the font size used when typing bookmark descriptions.
• Main window now closes when hiding after a successful post so that it doesn't show up when using the search feature later.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug with search window keyboard shortcuts not working on non-US keyboard layouts.
• Fixes a bug with multibyte characters in URLs not opening when selected in search results.
• Fixes an issue where opening account web pages for non-Delicious accounts would open in Delicious instead of the service used.

Several minor user experience bug & performance fixes.

Important:

Please note that new Delicious accounts are now created tied to a Yahoo! login, which requires OAuth support in third-party applications. OAuth support is in development for Pukka, but currently, Yahoo!'s implementation is incomplete -- for example, private bookmarks cannot be accessed. As a result, this version does not yet ship with support for Yahoo!-linked accounts. Only Delicious accounts created before this switch in October are usable with Pukka. We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause.

• Many small stylistic improvements and minor bug fixes.

• Significantly reduced application launch time by loading dock and menu bar menu items lazily, i.e., only when first needed.
• Improved the Spotlight cache checking routine to more reliably check only new and updated bookmarks, instead of occasionally checking all bookmarks. This eliminates an occasional application hang seen by some users following a full sync of bookmarks with the online API.
• Moved Pukka's Spotlight cache to a faster, machine-readable format. This will require a brief rebuild of the Spotlight index the next time you launch Pukka.
• Improved the Spotlight cache checking routine by reducing the number of accesses to disk.

Bug fixes

• Reverted a change from the 1.6 days that would use an alternate URL fetching library on Leopard to work around some early Leopard crashing bugs. This solves an issue with system-wide proxy settings sometimes not being obeyed by Pukka.

Features

• Added a preference control to manually rebuild the Spotlight cache on demand.

• The description length can now be up to 1,000 characters in order to match recent changes to Delicious.

• The latest ten bookmarks across accounts is now shown in the dock and menu bar menus, if they are enabled.

• A backup of each of your accounts' bookmarks, as retrieved from the server, is made from time to time. See Pukka -> View Backup Folder...

• When selecting a bookmark from any of Pukka's menus, holding down the Option key will allow editing of that bookmark in Pukka.

• Application and document icons up to 512 pixels have been added for better appearance on Leopard and greater.

• Tooltips have been added to menu bar items to display the full bookmark title if they are truncated for display.

• Account passwords are remembered for the duration of Pukka's launch once they are retrieved from the keychain, including across system sleep.

• On first use, a prompt to configure the bookmarklet is shown after prompting to view the screencast.

• The bookmarklet page now features a small animation to assist in getting it configured.

Bug fixes

• Performance has been tuned in the menu bar item, which also translates to a faster launch time if you are using the item.

• The posting sound effect, if enabled, is now played properly when the preference to quit after posting is turned on.
