Announcing FreeKey Alpha4

[Brandon Smith]

I've just finished adding one major new feature to FreeKey:

Random Passwords are in!

To checkout the latest release of FreeKey, as always, go to
http://reardencode.github.com/freekey

Since the last major announcement, there have also been various bug
fixes, code improvements and UI enhancements, but I really don't
remember what all they were.

The other big news here is that FreeKey gets a build system of sorts! A
script that runs the Closure javascript compiler on it and cuts the size
of the actual FreeKey javascript in half. FreeKey is now 125kB (down
from 134) even with added features! Of that 125kB, 90kB is jQuery. I
haven't decided what exactly to do about that. One possibility is using
Closure to compile all of FreeKey with jQuery so that it can eliminate
code that isn't used. Unfortunately a quick attempt at this was not
fruitful.

Up next on my docket (probably for alpha5) is clipboard integration.

Enjoy,

As tends to happen early in projects, right on the coat tails of alpha4
is alpha5. Didn't get clipboard integration in yet, but made enough
improvements to the UI and synchronization behavior that I think it
justified a release.

Enjoy,

I've used a lot of alpha tags recently.

A build tagged alpha9 has been pushed to the usual URL and now supports
firefox and _maybe_ WebOS 1.4.5. This also introduces pack format 2,
which should be an invisible upgrade.
