PortkeyDrop Downloads

Added

• Linux builds: releases and nightlies now include a Linux tarball and an AppImage. The AppImage bundles the libraries missing on non-Ubuntu systems, so it runs on Fedora, Arch, and openSUSE too, while screen reader support, themes, and TLS keep using your distro's own libraries.
• Linux AppImage installs can update themselves: the updater downloads the new AppImage, verifies its checksum, swaps it in place, and relaunches. Tarball runs get told where the verified download was saved instead of hitting a dead end.

Changed

• The transfer queue window no longer opens (and steals focus) automatically every time a transfer is queued; announcements cover the feedback and Ctrl+Shift+T opens it on demand. Queue buttons disable without a selection, and the selection follows the same transfer when rows are removed.
• Added Help > Keyboard Shortcuts listing every binding, including the previously undocumented F6, Ctrl+L, and Ctrl+1/2/3 pane shortcuts.
• Duplicate menu and dialog access keys (Alt+letter) were reassigned so each letter activates its control directly across the menus, Site Manager, Settings, transfer queue, sound pack, and import dialogs.
• The Settings Audio tab now scrolls so all mute checkboxes stay visible when focused; the file lists have proper accessible names for VoiceOver; keyboard-opened context menus appear at the focused file instead of the mouse pointer; switching protocol keeps a hand-typed port; the activity log no longer moves your reading position when new entries arrive; and a startup notice appears when no speech backend is available.
• Pressing Escape in the quick connect bar while connected now hides the bar and returns focus to where you were.
• Choosing Connect with an empty host, username, or required password now moves focus to the field that needs input and announces it, instead of showing a dead-end error dialog.
• Quick Connect (Ctrl+N) now focuses the quick connect bar (revealing it while connected) instead of opening a separate dialog with the same fields.
• Pressing Enter in any quick connect field now starts the connection, matching the old dialog behavior.
• Removed the redundant File > Connect menu item; connecting lives in the quick connect bar and the Sites menu. Ctrl+Enter still connects.
• Moved Disconnect from the File menu to the Sites menu, so connecting, disconnecting, and site management share one menu.
• An invalid port in the quick connect bar now focuses the port field with an announcement instead of crashing the connect action.

Fixed

• Pressing Delete or F2 while editing a text field no longer triggers file delete or rename — those keys now act only inside the file panes, and file operations tell you to focus a pane first instead of guessing (and sometimes targeting a remote file you never touched).
• Background transfer completions no longer jump your position in the file lists back to the top; deletes and renames keep you on the nearest neighbouring file, and sorting or toggling hidden files keeps your selection.
• The "Announce file count" setting now actually speaks the count when entering a directory; empty folders and empty filter results are announced instead of silent.
• The Speech settings tab (rate, volume, verbosity) now controls the built-in speech output instead of doing nothing; verbosity also controls transfer progress announcements.
• The "Verify host keys: ask" setting now really asks: connecting to an unknown SSH host shows an accessible dialog to reject or accept the key once or permanently, instead of silently trusting it.
• The Cancel button on the update download progress dialog now actually cancels the download.
• Upload, download, and transfer with nothing selected or no connection announce why nothing happened instead of doing nothing silently.
• Restoring the window from the notification area and closing the transfer queue now place keyboard focus in the file list rather than on the window frame.
• Removing a site in the Site Manager now asks for confirmation, announces the removal, and clears the form after the last site is deleted.
• Repeated connect presses while a connection attempt is in progress no longer start duplicate attempts (and duplicate error dialogs). Starting a connection is now announced for screen readers.
