New in Dash 7.0.0 (Aug 18, 2023)
- Docset Generator and Website Copier:
- Dash 7 includes a general-purpose docset generator and website copier in Preferences > Downloads > Docset Generator.
- You can generate docsets by copying any website for offline use, or from local HTML files.
- The Website Copier is based on WKWebView and is able to scrape JavaScript-heavy websites.
- You can generate docsets from the command-line as well, by exporting the docset config created in Dash.
- New Fuzzy Search Engine:
- Dash 7 includes a completely rewritten fuzzy search engine, which makes it easier to find the page you need, fast.
- Streamlined Search Experience:
- Dash 7 will now search disabled docsets when you start your search query with the docset name or keyword (e.g. searching for “css display” will search for “display” in the CSS docset even when the CSS docset is disabled)
- Docsets now appear as search results, so you can search for “css” if you want to easily activate or browse the CSS docset
- Special characters and diacritics are normalized within the search index, so it’s easier to search for entries that contain these characters

- New Pricing Model:
- I’ve decided to switch Dash to a subscription pricing model, as the paid upgrade pricing model is no longer a good fit.
- Dash’s highest development priority is docset updates and supporting new docsets, but the paid upgrade pricing model focuses on new features. The subscription pricing model will allow me to focus more on Dash’s #1 feature: its docsets.

- The Docsets download manager is now slightly more robust. The docsets are now hosted on 3 servers (in New York, San Francisco and Amsterdam) and Dash will perform a latency test before downloading a docset in order to determine which location might provide the best download speed.

New in Dash 1.8.2 (Apr 11, 2013)
- Release highlights (tl;dr):
- New icon, thanks to Reda Lemeden
- Very fast, revamped search engine
- Awesome Alfred 2 workflow with autocomplete (Preferences > Integration)
- Replaced the help window with an online user guide
- Improved fuzzy search and CamelCase support
- Added Appcelerator Titanium docset
- Added ExtJS docset
- Added Sencha Touch docset
- Added an Alfred 2 workflow (in Preferences > Integration) which feeds back results into Alfred directly. If you have previously imported the Alfred extension, you'll have to import it again (just click on the Alfred icon in Preferences > Integration).
- The docset search engine has been greatly improved:
- Dash will now build a optimised search index for all docsets. This index uses a negligible amount of disk space (1-3% of the space that is used by the actual docsets that are indexed) in order to greatly improve search speeds. While using that index, search speeds should range between as low as 0.01 seconds and no higher than 0.2 seconds, even when searching a lot of docsets.
- Improved fuzzy searching: support for CamelCases, better result sorting. Note: the optimised search index is not used for fuzzy searching, so fuzzy searching speed has not significantly improved.
- Dash will now remember what results you have previously taken an interest in and will prioritise them in future searches. "Interest" is defined by spending at least 8 seconds on a result's page.
- One of the major issues Dash had was with searching entries that contain a whitespace within them. This is because you can't actually search for a whitespace within Dash, due to the "anything that comes after a whitespace is searched in-page" feature. To work around this, you can now simply omit the whitespace completely. For example, if you'd like to find an entry named "String Programming Guide", you can write "StringProgramming" or "StringGuide", or anything of sorts as long as you omit the whitespace.
- Dash's help window has now been replaced by an online guide, which details all of the features in Dash. I recommend that you skim it for a second, because you might find some hidden gems.
- A lot of Dash's great features are not so easy to find (e.g. search profiles, docset keywords and even in-page search), so Dash will now show hints to guide you around its interface so that you can take advantage of all of Dash's features. These hints might be a bit annoying for users familiar with all of Dash's features - sorry!
- Added a "Advanced integration tips" button in Preferences > Integration, in order to describe that the integration plugins can be used with docset keywords or search profile keywords
- Minor interface-related improvements

- You can now Page Down / Page Up the documentation page or snippet you're seeing while having any text field focused (e.g. pressing Page Down while having the main search field focused will Page Down the documentation page you're currently seeing). This also works with CMD+Down/Up Arrow for go to end and go to top

- The Ruby docset should now reliably show methods, constants and attributes in the ToC.
- The Ruby on Rails docset should now show Constants and Attributes in the ToC, alongside methods.
