In this new release, Hello-IT will bring new capabilities, few security features and will remove some odd and unused options.

Changes

Hide uncommon features

For all functions provided with Hello-IT, you can now set the optionalDisplay to true if you want your item being visible only when the option key has been pressed when opening the menu (same behaviour as the WiFi menu).

Secure your setup

On the security side, two new global settings (to set at root of the preference domain) allowSubdomains will let you limit the use of preferences subdomains and denyUserWritableScript will limit scripted item to load a script that the end user can edit. Both of this new security option are disabled by default.

Better script support

Regarding scripted items. A new verb has been introduced: network, to be notified right when Hello IT detected a network change. The old base64 feature for arguments has been removed, only options array of string used as command line argument is supported now.

The bash library has been moved to another path and a new environment variable is available to access it.

Support for custom icons

Support of custom icons in the top menu bar was based on png, a bug as been discovered regarding support for retina and non retina display. To fix this, Hello IT now require tiff based icons to bundle the two version of the icon.

Change the quit label

Quit function now support custom localized title.
