Ampersand
0.2.21

A way back into an encrypted vault, and search that reaches inside it.

Every release

What changed

  • Passphrase recovery kit: a generated recovery code that can unlock the vault and force a passphrase reset if you forget yours.
  • Vault search now looks inside encrypted notes while the vault is unlocked. Locked, they stay invisible.
  • Table column widths survive a round-trip — un-resized tables still serialize as byte-identical markdown.
  • Bookmark auto-unfurl, off by default, because each unfurl reveals a request to the pasted domain.
  • Several bookmark-card image layout fixes.

Ampersand updates itself in place, so you are probably already on a newer build than this one. If you are installing fresh, the download page always has the current release for macOS, Windows and Linux.
