## Applications

- General

  - Applications now launch correctly on Mac OS X when they are located in a path containing a space.

- Rainbow

  - Added the `-log` option to specify result log file. By default the log file is `{user.home}\rainbowBatchLog.txt`

- Tikal

  - Added the `-safe` option to prompt user when overriding a directory when extracting.

## Filters

- ITS Filters (XML Filter and HTML5+ITS Filter)

  - Continued implementation of ITS 2.0 (See http://okapiframework.org/wiki/wiki/index.php?title=ITS_Components for details)
  - Added support for HTML5 `translate=""` (same as `translate="yes"`).

- XLIFF Filter

  - Continued implementation of ITS 2.0.
  - Added support for `okp:engine` attribute in `<alttrans>`.

- Wiki Filter

  - Fixed issue #315: `WikiFilter` didn't work with `preserve_whitespace: true`.

- Regex Filter

  - Improved the macStrings default settings to include slash+star comments with next extracted string.

- IDML Filter

  - Fixed issue #316: Added default to not extract hidden layers and added the option “Extract hidden layers”.
  - Enabled the option “Create new paragraphs on hard returns”.
    Important: This option is still BETA and may prevent you to merge back the extracted file. Make sure to test the round-trip before using this option for real projects.

- TMX Filter

  - Fixed a bug where attribute values on `<tuv>` elements were being written back to the skeleton without proper escaping.
  - Improved filter performance.

- Properties Filter

  - Fixed issue #313 where the extended characters were not escaped when using the sub-filter.

- TS Filter

  - Changed the instantiation of the XML parser to use Woodstox.

- XML Stream Filter (Abstract Markup Filter)

  - Fixed issue #303: When using the global_pcdata_subfilter option, the filter will no longer generate extra segments consisting only of placeholders.

## Steps

- Microsoft Batch Translation Step

  - Added support for the `${domain}` variable for the category.
  - Added support for `${rootDir}` and other variables for the path of the Engine mapping file.

- Quality Check Step

  - Added option to save or not the session. This option is not accessible when editing the parameters from CheckMate, but only when editing a step's parameters.

- Rainbow Translation Kit Creation Step

  - Added to XLIFF outputs the option of outputting `ctype` and `equiv-text` attributes in inline codes.
  - Added to OmegaT output the output of `ctype` and `equiv-text` attributes in inline codes.
  - Added the option to merge a new OmegaT translation kit with an existing one, rather than overwriting it.

- Enrycher Step

  - Added support for segmented text units and implemented handling of inline codes.
  - Added parameter for number of events to process on each call to the service.

- Translation Comparison Step

  - Added option to log the average scores per documents in a tab-delimited file.
  - Added the output of a new tab-delimited file with all scores, along with the HTML report.
  - Extended the repartition table to use 11 brackets instead of 3, and include the two scores.

- Segmentation and Desegmentation Steps

  - Added the option to renumber code IDs after segmentation so that they are 1-indexed as much as possible. A corresponding option on the desegmentation step reverses the process. This option will not work correctly with formats that use non-consecutive or non-numeric code IDs, such as XLIFF.

## Connectors

- Microsoft Translator Connector

  - Added information about the engine in the query results.

## Libraries

    * Continued implementation of ITS 2.0 in XLIFF Writer.
    * Changed options settings for the XLIFFWriter class to use an
      object rather than multiple setters.

## Filters Plugin for OmegaT

    * Fixed [issue #322](https://bitbucket.org/okapiframework/okapi/issues/322): Updated the TS filter to use the Woodstox
      parser, and added the dependencies.
    * Added the XLIFF Filter to the plug-in.
    * Added basic support for some ITS data categories in the
      Comments pane (Text Analysis, Terminology).
