Growl 2.0.5

Growl 2.0.5Growl lets you know when things happen. Files finished downloading, friends came online, new email has arrived - Growl can let you know when any event occurs with a subtle notification. The rest of the time, Growl stays out of your way.

Along with letting you know when things happen, Growl also gives you full control over how you are notified and what action (if any) you want to take in response to the notification. You can choose to be alerted with a visual indicator or an audible alert, both, or neither. You can choose the type of display that is shown, whether the display remains on the screen, the importance of the notification, and even if the notification should be forwarded to another computer. You can have notifications that trigger an email, run a script, launch a program, or are read out loud.

Change Log:

- fixed a bug in the WebSocket handling of the WHATWG protocol (aka draft-hixie-thewebsocketprotocol-76)
- fixed a bug that did not honor the 'Allow notifications from websites' preference (always allowed notifications)
- fixed a bug that caused redraw artifacts when quickly scrolling the 'Applications' or 'Notifications' lists
- fixed a bug that crashed GfW if you exited the app while it was turned off (not listening for notifications)
- added ability to save preferred History view (Tile or Details)
- changed socket handling so that all incoming data is read (even if cached resources are used). this works around an issue in Winsock that sends a RST if data is received after the socket input stream is shutdown or closed: http://groups.google.com/group/growl-for-windows/browse_thread/thread/2523afc60296594
- fixed a concurrency bug that that occurred when many simultaneous notifications with no image were received at the same time (DefaultIcon contention)
- fixed a concurrency bug that occurred when many simultaneous notifications that referenced the same cached binary resource were received at the same time
- fixed a bug in Visor display that causes ampersands to render incorrectly (UseMnemonic)
- added Toasty forwarder to forward to Windows Phones
- released Notifo subscription plugin and updated Notifo forwarder plugin (to prevent loops) - thanks to Jonathan Yee
