Preferee: Release Notes

Release Notes

What's new in Preferee?

The new Swap feature lets you apply manual edits or imported user defaults from a plist file while backing up your own original user defaults for the domain in question, making it possible to swap back with a single button click. This is convenient if you're a developer who sometimes works with a user's preferences to match their setup as closely as possible while investigating a bug report.
You can now open plist files with Preferee to either import into or swap with a domain's user defaults.
If an app matching an edited user defaults domain is currently open, Preferee now offers to relaunch the app when you save to make sure your edits apply.

Fixed a problem that could occur when editing user defaults for a standard domain that has a container domain namesake.

You can now search for domains. Don't be surprised at the amount of matches — it's fuzzy search. The best matches still end up at the top of the list.
Preferee now handles the "x-preferee" URI scheme, which lets you open user defaults in Preferee from the Terminal, via a command along the lines of "open x-preferee:com.manytricks.Moom". To match the defaults command's behavior, this opens container domains preferably. If you'd rather err on the side of non-container standard domains, use a double colon — example: "open x-preferee::com.manytricks.Moom" (This is case-sensitive. If there's no exact match, Preferee will just search and select the first match, which enables you to run lazy commands along the lines of "open x-preferee:moom". As of now, ":" vs. "::" makes no difference at that point.)

View menu: Optionally have the sidebar show all available domains. When enabled, you can still curate a set of favorites via File menu or the sidebar's context menu.
View menu: Option have the sidebar merge the separate sections for standard (non-sandboxed) and container (sandboxed) domains.

Icons! Those aren't just pretty, they also help distinguish between standard and container domains.
