This is intended to help unclutter the display on + systems that run Windows, since Windows tends to duplicate its own boot + loader under the fallback name. + +- Added new "font" token to refind.conf, which enables specifying a font in + the form of a PNG file. This file must contain monospace glyphs for the + 95 characters from ASCII 32 to 126 (space through tilde), inclusive, plus + a glyph to be displayed for characters outside of this range, for a total + of 96 glyphs. + +- Replaced the old font (inherited from rEFInd) with an anti-aliased + version of Luxi Mono Regular 14 point. + +- Fixed bug that caused rEFInd to ignore manual boot stanzas in files + included via the "include" token in refind.conf. + +- Fixed bug that caused ASSERT error on some systems (and conceivably a + crash on startup on some) when default_selection line in refind.conf was + commented out or empty. + +- Fixed bug that caused "Binary is whitelisted" message to persist on + screen after loading MOK-signed drivers in Secure Boot mode. + +- Fixed bug that caused rEFInd to ignore the "icon" token in refind.conf + manual boot stanzas. + +- Fixed bug in install.sh that caused the script to fail to update + drivers when rEFInd was installed in EFI/BOOT/. + +0.6.5 (1/16/2013): +------------------ + +- Improved text color support: rEFInd now uses black text against light + backgrounds and white text against dark backgrounds. + +- Added support for PNGs as banners, icons, and selectors. + +- Added icon for ALT Linux. + +- Added "safemode" option to "hideui" token, to hide option to boot into + safe mode for OS X ("-v -x" option to boot.efi). + +- Added icon for Haiku (os_haiku.icns). + +- Enable transparency of icons & main-menu text when the banner icon is + sized to cover these areas. + - Fixed bug that could cause rEFInd to crash if fed a banner image that's too big. Note that "too big" can be substantially smaller than the screen resolution!
