Changes

New features/enhancements

  • Cancel button for indexing progress form. Cancellation, causes indexing thread to stop and rollback its task (cleaning up index files).
  • "Custom Mixed" layout name changed to "Multi-translation" layout.
  • HTML export for bookmark sets (XML to HTML transformation is done using export.xslt):
    • a new export button added to bookmark sets management form
    • output HTML supports nested folders and user can fold/unfold them
    • export format is a "single" HTML file (no dependency to any .css or .js file)
  • Basic search now uses two additional matching rules (for non-matching diacritic case):
    • ARABIC_TEH and ARABIC_TEH_MARBUTA are regarded the same.
    • An asymmetric character matching, for special cases of Hamza matching is implemented:
      • If user's search term contains any of Hamza characters (ء, إ, ئ, ٲ, or ؤ), it will be matched with all other forms of Hamza characters (those Hamza characters are regarded the same). For example ARABIC_LETTER_HAMZA (or ARABIC_LETTER_WAW_WITH_HAMZA_ABOVE) will be matched with itself as well as ARABIC_LETTER_ALEF_WITH_HAMZA_ABOVE, ARABIC_LETTER_ALEF_WITH_HAMZA_BELOW, ARABIC_LETTER_WAW_WITH_HAMZA_ABOVE, and ARABIC_LETTER_YEH_WITH_HAMZA_ABOVE.
      • If user's search term contains Hamza base (AKA Kursi) characters (which are ARABIC_LETTER_ALEF (ا), ARABIC_LETTER_YEH (ي) and ARABIC_LETTER_WAW (و)) they will only match with themselves as well as their corresponding Hamza character (or characters for the case of Alef). For example if user entered ARABIC_LETTER_ALEF (ا), it will be matched with ARABIC_LETTER_ALEF_WITH_HAMZA_ABOVE (ٲ), ARABIC_LETTER_ALEF_WITH_HAMZA_BELOW (إ), and also ARABIC_LETTER_ALEF (ا) itself.
  • Advanced search ArabicFilter changed in order to act ARABIC_TEH and ARABIC_TEH_MARBUTA the same.
  • Zekr may now be launched without any translation. It disables layout changing as well as search in translations if no translation found.
  • Indexing speed increased by almost 3 times faster than before. This is done by setting default value of IndexWriter.maxBufferedDocs to 80 (previously was 10).
  • Command line options:
    • -h/--help: displays help on command line options.
    • -clean: provides options for cleaning some application folders, for example indices, or configurations.
    • -index: provides options for making Quran text indices in a given path or predefined address.
    • -workspace : start Zekr using the given path as application workspace.

BookmarkItemForm now has a sash in order to set proportion of of top and bottom parts. More, it's last time location is stored.

  • Application task pane can be set to be resizeable. If options.general.resizeableTaskPane is set to true (can be set through Options > General), this pane is resizeable.
  • BrowserShop and FileResourceLoader classes licensing problem resolved by removing them and writing new classes BrowserUtils and ZekrFileResourceLoader respectively from scratch.
  • Speparate layout shash color for Quran form changed to SWT.COLOR_WIDGET_LIGHT_SHADOW.
  • linux-run.sh renamed to zekr.sh.

Bugs fixed

  • Simple Quran text is fully replaced with an automatically generetad text file.

Special thanks to Hamid Zarrabi-Zadeh for his script and Mohammad Derakhshani for verifying text.
