This minor release mainly fix some issues when installing Guake though pip install --user --upgrade guake
. A big thanks also to everyone who contributed to the translations on Weblate.
Don't translate application icon (this finally fixes Guake application icon not being displayed with German locale, which was only partially resolved with #1320)
Install of Guake through pip install was broken (missing paths.py
). Now fixed. Discarded generation of bdist. (fix

pip install guake
now compiles the gsettings schema and finds its languages automatically.Wayland is a bit more well supported. The X11 backend is now used by default for GDK and it seems to make the shortcut works under most situation.
A more cleaner solution would be to develop a GAction (vote for this feature here])
A new command has been added: guake-toggle
, should be faster than guake -t
. You can use it when you register the global shortcut manually (X11 or Wayland).

Multiline url are sometimes not handled correctly.
Users of Byobu or Tmux as default shell should disable the "login shell" option (in the "Shell" panel). This uses an option, --login
, that does not exist on these two tools.
Fix duplication in theme list (#1304)
Fix right click selection in Midnight Commander
Corrected usage of Vte.Regex.new_for_match
to fix regular expression matching (hyperlinks, quick open) on VTE >0.50 (#1295)
URL with '
(simple quote) and ()
(parenthesis) are now captured by hyperlink matcher. This may causes some issues with log and so that use parenthesis around hyperlinks, but since parenthesis and quotes are valid characters inside a URL, like for instance URL created by Kibana, they deserve the right to be shown as proper url in Guake.
User can still select the URL in the terminal if he wishes to capture the exact url, before doing a Ctrl+click or a right click.
For developers, it is advised to end the URL with a character that cannot be used in URL, such as space, tab, new line. Ending with a dot (.
) or a comma (,
) will not be seen as part of the URL by Guake, so most logs and traces that adds a dot or a comma at the end of the URL might still work.

This version of Guake brings mostly bug fixes, and some new features like "Quick Open on selection". I have also reworked internally the Quick Open so that it can automatically open files from logs from pytest and other python development tools output. However, there might still some false positive on the hovering of the mouse in the terminal, the most famous being the output of ls -l
which may have the mouse looks like it sees hyperlinks on the terminal everywhere. Click does nothing but its an annoying limitation.
Package maintainers should read the "Notes for Package Maintainers" of this release note carefully.
New "start at login" option in the settings (only for GNOME) #251
Add --verbose
/-v
parameter to enable debug logging. Please note the existing -v
(for version number) has been renamed -V
.
Support for hyperlink VTE extension (described here ) #945 (Untested, as it requires VTE 0.50)
Add great color palettes from Guake Color Scheme, thanks for @ziyenano :
Allow application to capture right click (ex: Midnight commander). #1096. It is still possible to show the contextual menu with Shift+right click.
delete tab even without libutempter (#1198)
Fix crash when changing command file #1229
fix import sys
in simplegladeapp.py
change scope of which_align
variable in pref.py
(#1225)
Fix user interface translations #1228
Fix several issues on Quick Edit:
quick open freezes guake
support for systems with PCRE2 (regular expression in terminal) disabled for VTE, like Ubuntu 17.10 and +.
This might disable quick open and open url on direct Ctrl+click. User can still select the wanted url or text and Cltr+click or use contextual menu.
See this discussion on Tilix, another Terminal emulator that suffurs the same issue.
quick open now appears in contextual menu (#1157)
bad translation update on the contextual menu. This causes new strings that was hidden to appear for translators.
Fix quick open on pattern "File:line" line that was not opening the wanted file.
Some systems such as Ubuntu did displayed Guake with a translated interface (#1209). The locale system has been reworked to fix that.
There might be broken translations, or not up-to-date language support by Guake. A global refresh of all existing translations would be welcomed. Most has not been updated since the transition to Guake 3, so these languages support might probably be unfunctional or at least partialy localized.
A big thank you for all the volunteers and Guake enthousiats would often update their own translation to help guake being used world-wide.
Support for vte 2.91 (0.52) #1222
The setup mecanism has changed a little bit. Some maintainers used to patch the source code of Guake to change the pixmap, Gtk schema or locale paths directly in the guake/globals.py
file. This was due to a lack of flexibility of the installation target of the Makefile
.
The make install
target looks now a little bit more familiar, allowing distribution packager to set the various paths directly with make flags.
For example:
sudo make install \
prefix=/usr \
DESTDIR=/path/for/packager \
PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGE_NAME=site-package \
localedir=/usr/share/locale
The main overrides are:
IMAGE_DIR
: where the pixmap should be installed. Default: /usr/local/share/guake/pixmaps
localedir
: where locales should be installed. Default: /usr/local/share/locale
GLADE_DIR
: where the Glade files should be installed. Default: /usr/local/share/guake
gsettingsschemadir
: where gsettings/dconf schema should be installed. Default: /usr/local/share/glib-2.0/schemas/
I invite package maintainers to open tickets on Github about any other difficulties encountered when packaging Guake.

Add window displacement options to move guake away from the screen edges
User can manually enter the name of the GTK theme it wants Guake to use. Note there is no Preference settings yet, one needs to manually enter the name using dconf-editor
, in the key /apps/guake/general/gtk-theme-name
. Use a name matching one the folders in /usr/share/themes
. Please also considere this is a early adopter features and has only been tested on Ubuntu systems. Dark theme preference can be se with the key /apps/guake/general/gtk-prefer-dark-theme
.
Allow make install-system to be run as non root user and print a message if so.
Quick open can now open file under selection. Simply select a filename in the current terminal and do a Ctrl+click, if the file path can be found, it will be open in your editor. It allows to virtually open any file path in your terminal (if they are on your local machine), but requires the user to select the file path first, compared to the Quick Open feature that finds file names using regular expression.
Also notes that is it able to look in the current folder if the selected file name exists, allowing Ctrl+click on relative paths as well.
Line number syntax is also supported: filename.txt:5
will directly on the 5th line if your Quick Open is set for.

This minor release mainly focus on fixing big problems that was remaining after the migration to
GTK3. I would like to akwonledge the work of some contributors that helped testing and reporting
issues on Guake 3.0.0. Thanks a lot to @egmontkob and @aichingm.
The Preference window has been deeply reworked and the hotkey management has been rewriten. This was
one the the major regression in Guake 3.0.

Minor maintenance release.
Published by gsemet almost 7 years ago
Guake has been ported to GTK-3 thanks to the huge work of @aichingm.
This also implies Guake uses the latest the underlying terminal emulator component, VTE 2.91. This enables new features in upcoming releases, such as "find in terminal", or "split screen".
Guake is now only working on Python 3 (version 3.5 or 3.6). Official support for Python 2 has been dropped.
Ported to GTK3:

Update Guake window title when:
Guake 3 has a minor limitation, it looks for the gsettings schema inside its data
directory. So you will probably install the schema twice, once in /usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/guake/data/
and once in /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas
(see #1064). This is planned to be fixed in Guake 3.1

This will be probably one of the latest release of Guake 0.8. We are now ready to jump to GTK3, Python 3 and VTE 2.91 in a very near future.
