New FeaturesBug Fixes
- Removed support for building Sigil with Qt5 as our code had become a rats nest of qt version ifdefs. See our git branch "qt5final" for the very last buildable version of Sigil under Qt5
- Our new minium version to build Qt is Qt 6.4.0 or later
- Removed the need and usage for Qt6Compat5 as its contents were deprecated and will go away eventually
- Added support for using the ICU library to help replace the range of encodings supported by the old QTextCodec
- We are now using NFC unicode normalization form for all content, links, urls, and file paths.
- Made Sigil's Well-Formed Check (Sanity Check) more robust to whitespace parsing rules and allowed it to detect and report missing XML Headers
- We have upgraded to use Qt 6.7.2 and Python 3.11.9 for the base of our Windows and MacOS releases
