New in GeekTool 3.3.0 (Jul 30, 2016)
- Fixes:
- Fix a bug causing Geeklets to disappear on some MacBook Pro computers
- Fix a bug causing locking of GeekTool Helper when running long scripts
- Fix a bug with Geeklet disappearing when screen configuration changes
- Fix a bug causing inconsistent behavior of geeklets when duplicating them
- New:
- Implemented geeklet placement relative to their screen
- Geeklet position based on monitor ID
- Important! Now that geeklets are placed relative to their screen, if the screen is not present, geeklets won't be opened. Which means that the old behavior of having Geeklets positioned out of screen pounds relative to the main screen is no longer valid. If you need the same Geeklet on your secondary screen home, and on your secondary screen at work for example, you will have to create the same Geeklet for both.
- Shell Geeklets:
- Implemented extended colors with ANSI sequences
- Log Geeklets:
- Log geeklets can now be filtered and search/replaced using regular expressions

- Implemented Applescript dictionary for HTML Geeklets
