- Fixed an issue where the first completion for a partial link typed in chat input box would sometimes get deselected with the cursor moved to its end, preventing one from continuing to type something else (e.g. intending to type the first three letters of [Bracers of the Green Fortress], but getting “[B.O.O.M Operative’s Beltr” or “[B.O.O.M Operative’s Belta” instead).
- Link completion in the chat input box is now triggered 0.25 seconds after the latest character is typed (instead of every 0.25 seconds while the input box contains new characters), further reducing lag while typing.
- Fixed several issues with using the Tab key to cycle through possible link completions or advance the cursor withing them.

- Optimized item link lookups for better performance; 2.1.1’s significant lag while typing or pasting text in the chat window should now be all but eliminated.
- Reduced memory usage after link lookups.
- Enchanting links will no longer appear twice in the results of a
/link <name>
search.

and /rc [item link]
output.

- Refined behavior of the tooltip shown when mousing over the minimap tracking icon (with Blizzard-provided tracking spell info and TrackMenu instructions):
- If the menu is set to show on mouseover, the tooltip won’t.
- If the menu is set to show on click, the tooltip will disappear when moving the mouse into the tracking spells menu or shift-clicking to get TrackMenu’s options menu.
- There’s now also an option to keep the tooltip from appearing at all.
- The invisible frame we use for opening the menu on click or mouseover is now at the proper depth; the menu should no longer open unexpectedly when clicking/mousing over frames (e.g. bags) that obscure the minimap.
- We also make sure said frame moves appropriately when the display resolution changes (or you switch between windowed and fullscreen); the menu should remain usable in such cases now.

- Fixed errors caused by changes to the TradeSkill/Craft APIs in WoW Patch 2.1.
- Fixed an issue where we’d store incorrect info for recipe reagents, resulting in errors once we tried to display price data for them.
- Added support for the Ace AddonLoader — when that addon is present, ReagentCost won’t be loaded until needed (when you show a tradeskill window or type
/rc
).

July 20th, 2007
- Added support for tradeskill links (introduced in WoW patch 2.1).
- Redesigned code for handling item links. Over the last several patches, Blizzard has optimized the item info APIs to where we can get by without our own item names database… so we can save a big chunk of RAM by getting rid of it.
- Added support for the Ace AddonLoader — when that addon is present, Linkerator will load in the background shortly after login (reducing initial load time).

- We now make sure to resize quest buttons in the gossip window when adding our text; long quest names should no longer result in overlapping text.
- Added support for the Ace AddonLoader — when that addon is present, it’ll make sure Levelator only loads when needed (i.e. when there’s a quest title needing to be displayed).

July 20th, 2007
- Fixed issues related to the new pet skills introduced in WoW Patch 2.1. (Including an error message upon opening the Beast Training window after learning Cobra Reflexes.)
- Added Traditional Chinese localization.
- Added support for the Ace AddonLoader — when that addon is present, Hunter’s Helper will only load automatically for Hunter characters by default. (If you like seeing beasts’ abilities in their tooltips when playing your other characters, you can change AddonLoader’s setting to make Hunter’s Helper load for non-hunters.)

- Uses a simpler, more reliable means of hooking item tooltips.
- Added support for the Ace AddonLoader — when that addon is present, Gemologist will load in the background shortly after login (reducing initial load time).

July 20th, 2007
- Fixed an issue where FOM would mistakenly indicate that no food is in your bags upon zoning, logging in, dismounting, etc.
- Typing
/fom debug
will toggle the display of additional info in the tooltip when mousing over the pet happiness icon, showing the list of the next several foods FOM will attempt to use. Check this if FOM is using foods you don’t expect it to (or failing to find foods you do).
- Fixed an error when pressing the Feed Pet keybinding while your pet is dead or dismissed.
- We no longer show a chat window message or emote if feeding was unsuccessful (e.g. if the pet is out of range).
- [Underspore Pod] is now treated as an exception to the “foods with bonus effects” rule, since it’s easy to summon more. (Yeah, it’s kinda hackish. A better UI for customizing food preferences is coming in a future update.)
- Added Traditional Chinese localization.
- Uses a simpler, more reliable means of hooking item tooltips.
- Added support for the Ace AddonLoader — when that addon is present, Feed-O-Matic will only load for Hunter characters.
