Pulsar v1.122.0: Frightfully Good.

Greetings! In today's Pulsar release, we have:

  • Bug-fixes, refactors and enhancements for Tree-sitter, mostly focused on C and PHP. (shout out to @savetheclocktower for these monthly enhancements!)
  • Launcher improvements:
    • A fix for the pulsar and ppm bins being removed without being replaced upon upgrading via the .rpm package (shout out to @am97, thank you for this fix!)
    • The AppImage now supports more launch flags, such as --wait, and -p --version also works to print the ppm version info (shout out to @savetheclocktower for multiple PRs leading up to this, and this PR itself.)
  • A bug involving an error in autocomplete-plus is avoided (shout out to @Digitalone1)
  • SQL state storage implementation for the app is available by opt-in (shout out to @mauricioszabo)
  • Replacing a deprecated Electron API call shell.moveItemToTrash (shout out to @savetheclocktower once again!)

Happy coding, and see you amongst the stars. - Pulsar team

  • Added a SQL State Storage alternative to IndexedDB (opt-in, off by default).
  • Repackaged the AppImage so it uses our launcher script internally (supports more CLI/launch flags).
  • [language-php] Highlighted “null-safe” property access correctly.
  • [language-c] Scoped template delimiters properly in C++.
  • [language-c] Consolidated common highlighting queries between the C and C++ grammars for more consistency in syntax highlighting.
  • Fixed incorrect behavior in certain scenarios for “Fold at Indent Level X” commands.
  • Fixed exception when resolving divided folds (e.g., #ifdefs in C/C++).
  • Avoided "length of null" error in autocomplete-plus for the PHP Tree-sitter grammar.
  • Preserved /usr/bin/pulsar and /usr/bin/ppm on RPM updates.
  • [tree-view] Moved to a more modern API for file removal in preparation for an Electron upgrade.
