Changes ------------ * The UI can now be started with ``nescient-ui [path1] [path2]...``
Bugfixes ----------- * Fixed bug on Windows with entering path names with backslashes.
0.6.0
Changes ----------- * A GUI mode, which can pack & unpack files, benchmarks modes, etc. Run it with ``nescient``.
Bugfixes ----------- * Fixed bug where the chacha-stm-sha mode would not correctly pack/unpack files smaller than 64 bytes.
0.5.0
Changes ----------- * Support for the ChaCha20 stream cipher (now the default packing mode). Packing speeds reach approximately 100 MB/s with this mode, as opposed to the ~30 MB/s with AES. Due to its design, ChaCha is also unlikely to suffer from cache timing attacks.
Bugfixes ----------- * Specifying paths that resolve to a total of zero actual files will cause Nescient to print an error and exit.
0.4.9
Changes ----------- * Even better, more elegant logo. * Core crypto code has been rewritten, packing speeds reached 33Mb/s in tests. * Converted variables from camelCase to snake_case * Cleaned up project, refactored and made it easier to develop further. * New command line interface and options.
0.3.0
The curses dependency issue on Windows has been resolved via use of Python's getpass module. New features include:
- New, less pixelated logo - *Actual* usage of nescient available from the Windows command line (this functionality always existed for Linux, but it had not been made to work on Windows prior to this release.
0.2.0
This isn't intended to be very finished at this point, but it's usable.
Usage is via nescient from the command line, nescient -h for help.
