Changes

• Added support for having Heynote in the Mac Menu Bar / Tray icon

• Ability to specify file system location of Heynote's buffer file. The buffer will automatically be reloaded if changed on disk, so this should make it possible to have the buffer automatically synced between machines using a file-syncing service such as Dropbox.

• Custom font and font size support.

• More key-binding for creating new blocks

  Mac:
  
  ⌘ + Enter           Add new block below the current block
  ⌥ + Enter           Add new block before the current block
  ⌘ + Shift + Enter   Add new block at the end of the buffer
  ⌥ + Shift + Enter   Add new block at the start of the buffer
  ⌘ + ⌥ + Enter       Split the current block at cursor position
  

  Windows/Linux:
  
  Ctrl + Enter           Add new block below the current block
  Alt + Enter            Add new block before the current block
  Ctrl + Shift + Enter   Add new block at the end of the buffer
  Alt + Shift + Enter    Add new block at the start of the buffer
  Ctrl + Alt + Enter     Split the current block at cursor position
  

• Syntax hightlighting support for new languages:

  • Swift
  • Kotlin
  • Groovy

• Auto-close brackets functionality that can be turned on in settings

• Ability to change how calculations are formatted in Math blocks. See the Readme for info on how to do this.

• There's now a Heynote webapp at app.heynote.com. It's still work-in-progress, but should be usable. The buffer is stored in localStorage.

• Multiple bug fixes and minor improvement.
