Overview
Version 0.6.0 is a major step forward comparing with older versions of Zekr, because it now utilizes the powerful Lucene full-text search library. It supports a bunch of different queries on Quran text, still one can do basic search on Both Quran text and translation.
A list of major changes over 0.5.0 final is listed below, and conventionally a detailed description of changes over 0.6.0beta2 is followed.
Major changes over 0.5.0
- Advanced search using Lucene full-text search library (Boolean operators, groups, wild cards, scopes, fuzzy search, ...).
- Uthman Taha theme featuring excellent me_quran font designed by Meor Ridzuan.

- HTML export for bookmark sets. A new button is added to "Manage Bookmark Sets" form to export any bookmark set into a single HTML file
