KeePass 2.27

What's new in this version:

New Features:
- The estimated password quality (in bits) is now displayed on the quality progress bar, and right of the quality progress bar the length of the password is displayed.
- Auto-Type: before sending a character using a key combination involving at least two modifiers, KeePass now first tests whether this key combination is a registered system-wide hot key, and, if so, tries to send the character as a Unicode packet instead.
- Auto-Type: added workaround for Cygwin's default Ctrl+Alt behavior (which differs from Windows' behavior).
- Auto-Type: added {APPACTIVATE ...} command.
- {HMACOTP} placeholder: added support for specifying the shared secret using the entry strings 'HmacOtp-Secret-Hex' (secret as hex string), 'HmacOtp-Secret-Base32' (secret as Base32 string) and 'HmacOtp-Secret-Base64' (secret as Base64 string).
- {T-CONV:...} placeholder: added 'Uri-Dec' type (for converting the string to its URI-unescaped representation).
- Added placeholders: {URL:USERINFO}, {URL:USERNAME} and {URL:PASSWORD}.
- Added placeholders: {BASE}, {BASE:RMVSCM}, {BASE:SCM}, {BASE:HOST}, {BASE:PORT}, {BASE:PATH}, {BASE:QUERY}, {BASE:USERINFO}, {BASE:USERNAME}, {BASE:PASSWORD} (within an URL override, each of these placeholders is replaced by the specified part of the string that is being overridden).
- Added {NEWPASSWORD:/Profile/} placeholder, which generates a new password for the current entry using the specified password generator profile.
- Pattern-based password generator: the '^' character now removes the next character from the current custom character set (for example, [a^y] contains all lower-case alphanumeric characters except 'y').
- Enhanced syntax highlighting in the sequence field of the 'Edit Auto-Type Item' dialog.
- Added option 'Do not ask whether to synchronize or overwrite; force synchronization'.
- Added synchronization support for the group behavior properties 'Auto-Type for entries in this group' and 'Searching entries in this group'.
- Root group properties are now synchronized based on the last modification time.
- While saving a database, a shutdown block reason is now specified.
- Added 'Move to Group' menu in the 'Selected Entries' popup of the main entry list context menu.
- Items of dynamic menus (tags, strings, attachments, password generator profiles, ...) now have auto-assigned accelerator keys.
- As alternative to Ctrl+F, pressing F3 in the main window now displays the 'Find' dialog.
- Added UIFlags bit for hiding password quality progress bars and information labels.
- Enhanced system font detection on Unix-like systems.
- When using 'xsel' for clipboard operations on Unix-like systems, text is now copied into both the primary selection and the clipboard.
- Added '--version' command line option (for Unix-like systems).
- Plugins can now subscribe to an IPC event that is raised when running KeePass with the '-e:' command line parameter.
- Added workaround for .NET AutoWordSelection bug.
- Added workaround for Mono bug 10163; saving files using WebDAV now also works under Mono 2.11 and higher.
- Added workaround for Mono image tabs bug.
- Added workaround for Mono NumericUpDown drawing bug. Improvements / Changes:
- Merged the URL scheme overrides and the 'Override all URLs' option into a new dialog 'URL Overrides'.
- Improved autocompletion of IO connection parameters using the MRU list (now treating the user name as filter).
- Improved interaction of IO connection trigger parameters and the MRU list.
- The master key prompt dialog now validates key files only when clicking [OK], and invalid ones are not removed automatically from the list anymore.
- Improved support for managing columns leftover from uninstalled plugins in the 'Configure Columns' dialog.
- If the 'Unhide Passwords' policy is turned off, the passwords column in the auto-type entry selection dialog is now unavailable.
- The entry list in the main window is now updated immediately after performing auto-type or copying data to the clipboard.
- Various list view performance improvements.
- The 'Searching entries in this group' group behavior properties are now ignored during resolving field references.
- Improved behavior in case of syntax errors in placeholders with parameters.
- Two-channel auto-type obfuscation: improved realization of clipboard paste commands.
- General main window keyboard shortcuts now also work within the quick search box and the database tab bar.
- Pressing Ctrl+Shift+Tab in the main window now always selects the previous database tab (independent of which control has the focus).
- Changed shortcut keys for moving entries/groups on Unix-like systems, due to Mono's incorrect handling of Alt (preventing key events) and navigation keys (selection updated at the wrong time).
- Auto-Type: improved modifier key releasing on Unix-like systems.
- Various code optimizations.
- Minor other improvements. Bugfixes:
- A key-up event to the groups tree in the main window without a corresponding key-down event does not change the entry list anymore.
