+<p>I am proud to announce that I've released Gemtexter version <span class="inlinecode">1.1.0</span>. What is Gemtexter? It's my static site generator written in GNU Bash:</p>
+<a class="textlink" href="https://foo.zone/gemfeed/2021-06-05-gemtexter-one-bash-script-to-rule-it-all.html">Gemtexter - One Bash script to rule it all</a><br />
+<a class="textlink" href="https://codeberg.org/snonux/gemtexter">https://codeberg.org/snonux/gemtexter</a><br />
+<p>It has been around a year since I released the first version <span class="inlinecode">1.0.0</span>. Although, there aren't any groundbreaking changes, there have been a couple of smaller commits and adjustments. I was quite surprised that I received a bunch of feedback and requests about Gemtexter so it means that I am not the only person in the universe actually using it.</p>
+<h2>What's new?</h2>
+<h3>Automatic check for GNU version requirements</h3>
+<p>Gemtexter relies on the GNU versions of the tools <span class="inlinecode">grep</span>, <span class="inlinecode">sed</span> and <span class="inlinecode">date</span> and it also requires the Bash shell in version 5 at least. That's now done in the <span class="inlinecode">check_dependencies()</span> function:</p>
+<pre>
+check_dependencies () {
+ # At least, Bash 5 is required
+ local -i required_version=5
+ IFS=. read -ra version &lt;&lt;&lt; "$BASH_VERSION"
+ if [ "${version[0]}" -lt $required_version ]; then
+ log ERROR "ERROR, \"bash\" must be at least at major version $required_version!"
+ exit 2
+ fi
+
+ # These must be the GNU versions of the commands
+ for tool in $DATE $SED $GREP; do
+ if ! $tool --version | grep -q GNU; then
+ log ERROR "ERROR, \"$tool\" command is not the GNU version, please install!"
+ exit 2
+ fi
+ done
+}
+</pre><br />
+<p>Especially macOS users didn't read the <span class="inlinecode">README</span> carefully enough to install GNU Grep, GNU Sed and GNU Date before using Gemtexter.</p>
+<h3>Backticks now produce <span class="inlinecode">inline code blocks</span> in the HTML output</h3>
+<p>The Gemtext format doesn't support inline code blocks, but Gemtexter now produces <span class="inlinecode">inline code blocks</span> (means, small code fragments can be placed in the middle of a paragraph) in the HTML output when the code block is enclosed with Backticks. There were no adjustments required for the Markdown output format, because Markdown supports it already out of the box.</p>
+<h3>Cache for Atom feed generation</h3>
+<p>The Bash is not the most performant language. Gemtexter already takes a couple of seconds only to generate the Atom feed for around two hand full of articles on my slightly underpowered Surface Go 2 Linux tablet. Therefore, I introduced a cache, so that subsequent Atom feed generation runs finish much quicker. The cache uses a checksum of the Gemtext <span class="inlinecode">.html</span> file to decide whether anything of the content has changed or not.</p>
+<h3>Input filter support</h3>
+<p>Once your capsule reaches a certain size, it can become annoying to re-generate everything if you only want to preview the HTML or Markdown output of one single content file. The following will add a filter to only generate the files matching a regular expression:</p>
+<pre>
+./gemtexter --generate '.*hello.*'
+</pre><br />
+<h3>Revamped <span class="inlinecode">git</span> support</h3>
+<p>The Git support has been completely rewritten. It's now more reliable and faster too. Have a look at the <span class="inlinecode">README</span> for more information.</p>
+<h3>Addition of <span class="inlinecode">htmlextras</span> and web font support</h3>
+<p>The <span class="inlinecode">htmlextras</span> folder now contains all extra files required for the HTML output format such as cascading style sheet (CSS) files and web fonts.</p>
+<h3>Sub-section support</h3>
+<p>It's now possible to define sub-sections within a Gemtexter capsule. For the HTML output, each sub-section can use its own CSS and web font definitions. E.g.:</p>
+<a class="textlink" href="https://foo.zone">The foo.zone main site</a><br />
+<a class="textlink" href="https://foo.zone/notes">The notes sub-section (with different fonts)</a><br />
+<h3>More</h3>
+<p>Additionally, there were a couple of bug fixes, refactorings and overall improvements in the documentation made. </p>
+<p>Overall, it's a pretty solid <span class="inlinecode">1.1.0</span> release without anything groundbreaking (therefore no major version jump). But I am happy about it.</p>
