2.4.0

This release includes a complete rewrite of the progress bar system. The new system is more
performant and flexible, and allows for more complex progress animations. The old progress bar APIs
are deprecated, but will continue to work.

See the documentation website for more information.

Added

• New implementation of progress bars with a number of improvements:
  • Support for animating multiple progress bars at the same time.
  • New mordant-coroutines modules with extensions for animating with coroutines instead of threads.
  • Any widget can be added to a progress layout, not just the built-in cell types
  • Added compact style to timeRemaining cells.
  • Added marquee cell that can scroll text that is larger than a fixed width.
  • Added timeElapsed cell that shows the time elapsed since the start of the animation.
• Added Viewport widget that can crop or pad another widget to a fixed size, and scroll it within that size.
• Added precision parameter to completed progress cell that controls the number of decimal places shown.
• Animations now automatically handle the terminal resizing, although on some terminals partially drawn frames may be visible. Due to a bug in JNI, the terminal size isn't automatically updated on JVM on macOS.
• Added TableBuilder.addPaddingWidthToFixedWidth option to control how padding is added to fixed width columns.

Changed

• Animations now never add a trailing newline while they're running. They always add one once the animation is stopped. The trailingLinebreak parameter is deprecated. This allows full screen animations without a blank line at the bottom.

Fixed

• Vertical layout now correctly pads non-text cells when align is set to TextAlign.LEFT
• Fixed exception when hiding the cursor on browsers on JS target.
• Update internal code generation to be compatible with the latest versions of R8 (#161)
