Documents findings from comprehensive menu interface review across all
9 views in the TUI. Identifies inconsistencies with filter, delete,
and export functionality.
Clarifications from user:
- 'n' and 'a' keys correctly limited to case/evidence contexts
- Filter should work everywhere (context-sensitive)
- Delete should work for all note views, not tag/IOC lists
- Export should extend to case/evidence markdown exports
Both views now support dual navigation options:
- Enter: Opens note_detail view (single note focus)
- 'v': Opens notes modal with selected note highlighted
Previously, case_detail would open the notes modal from the beginning
even when a case note was selected. Now it intelligently jumps to the
selected case note, matching the behavior in evidence_detail view.
This provides a consistent, predictable user experience across both
views where notes can be selected and viewed.
Now provides two ways to access notes in evidence_detail view:
- Enter: Opens note_detail view (single note focus)
- 'v': Opens notes modal with selected note highlighted (all notes)
The 'v' key now intelligently jumps to the selected note when
opening the modal, providing context while still showing all notes.
This gives users flexibility in how they want to view their notes.
Previously, pressing Enter on a note in evidence_detail view would
open the notes modal (same as 'v' key), while in other views
(case_detail, tag_notes_list, ioc_notes_list) it would open the
note_detail view. This created confusing and inconsistent behavior.
Now Enter consistently opens note_detail view across all contexts:
- Enter: Opens note detail view (full note content)
- 'v': Opens notes modal (scrollable list of all notes)
This aligns the implementation with the help text which already
documented the correct behavior.
Added full Unicode character support to the TUI's multiline input dialog.
Previously, only ASCII characters (32-126) were captured when typing notes.
Changes:
- Added UTF-8 multibyte character handling to _multiline_input_dialog()
- Properly collects and decodes 2/3/4-byte UTF-8 sequences
- Added explicit UTF-8 encoding to all file I/O operations
- Added ensure_ascii=False to JSON serialization for proper Unicode preservation
This fix allows users to enter umlauts (ä, ö, ü), accented characters
(é, à, ñ), and other Unicode characters in notes, case names, and all
other text input fields.
Tested with German umlauts, Asian characters, Cyrillic, and special chars.
Critical Fixes:
- Fixed IOC extraction order: URLs now checked before domains to prevent duplicates
- Fixed overlapping IOC highlights with overlap detection
- Fixed IPv4 pattern to validate octets (0-255) preventing invalid IPs like 999.999.999.999
- Fixed IPv6 pattern to support compressed format (::)
- Fixed hash extraction order: SHA256 -> SHA1 -> MD5 to prevent misclassification
High Priority Fixes:
- Added 10s timeout to all GPG subprocess calls to prevent hangs
- Fixed indentation inconsistency in storage.py:253
Performance Improvements:
- Removed 8 time.sleep(0.1) calls from demo case creation (800ms faster startup)
Robustness Improvements:
- Added error handling to export_markdown() for IOError/OSError/PermissionError
- Implemented atomic writes for state file (set_active)
- Implemented atomic writes for settings file (set_setting)
All changes tested and verified with unit tests.
- Move all project files from `trace/` subdirectory to the repository root
- Rename directory structure from `fnote` to `trace`
- Update package references and imports (fnote -> trace)
- Update application branding and storage paths (~/.trace)
- Update build script and documentation
- Ensure __pycache__ is ignored
