Announcing Astroid v0.2

[Gaute Hope]

Greetings,

Astroid (https://github.com/gauteh/astroid) v0.2 is now ready!

  Astroid is a graphical threads-with-tags mail user agent based on sup
  and notmuch. Written in C++ using GTK+, WebKit and gmime.

# Changes since v0.1 [0]

  * Allow math to be rendered with MathJax! Enclose math with $ or $$,
    by default we are using MathJax online, but you can set this to
    your local installation as well. MathJax is enabled by default,
    and can also be enabled only for certain tags.

  * Highlight code syntax between ``` markdown-style tags as well as
    patches sent as email.

  * Partial mailto: support, check out --help.

  * Switch tabs/pages using mouse.

  * Double-click in thread index to open thread.

  * Paging in thread index moves cursor.

  * Do not load remote images or resources from html files.

  * C-m: adds 'muted' tag, 'muted' messages are excluded from
         non-explicit searches.

  *   v: refine query.

  * Tab: Grabs the first match in tag and search completion.

  * As well as bunch of smaller improvements and bug-fixes..

# A bit more description

  Astroid is intended to be fast, simple and navigable by keyboard alone
  (mouse support is not really implemented yet). It can show images as
  well as HTML parts inline (disabled by default). The mail composer is
  using an embedded gvim to edit messages (extending to use another
  editor that supports XEmbed is not difficult). Astroid is tab-based
  with searches, emails, and composers organized in tabs. A new main
  window in the same instance can be opened allowing for several modes
  or tabs to be visible at the same time.

  It is still highly experimental software and, in particular, HTML
  parts from untrusted senders should not necessarily be viewed.

Astroid can be found at: https://github.com/gauteh/astroid (source).
