Hi all,

On the behalf of the Spyder Project Contributors 
<https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/graphs/contributors>, I'm pleased to 
announce that Spyder *5.4.0* has been released and is available for 
Windows, GNU/Linux and MacOS X: 
https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/releases

This release comes nine weeks and four days after version 5.3.3 and it 
contains the following new features and important fixes:

   - New UI/UX elements to update standalone installers with options to 
   download and install a new version if available.
   - New experimental conda-based standalone installers for MacOS and Linux 
   (available on the GitHub release page with the EXPERIMENTAL- prefix).
   - Now the Code Analysis/Pylint plugin uses the current custom 
   interpreter/environment if set.
   - Option to show user environment variables extended to all operative 
   systems (previously available only for Windows).
   - Improve Outline Explorer plugin performance and fix updating process 
   when it becomes visible.
   - Improvements to colors on the dependencies dialog and IPython console.
   - Fix IPython console issues on the Matplotlib TkInter backend with 
   debugging and an increase of CPU and memory usage while in an idle state.
   - Fix IPython console memory leak when using the Matplotlib Qt backend.
   - Fix IPython console input() issue on MacOS.
   - Fix IPython console kernel error regarding environment path as 
   unexpected argument.
   - Fix Spyder 3 icon theme load on Windows with untrusted fonts security 
   restrictions.
   - Fix the Autoformat files on save functionality to not hang with 
   non-Python files.
   - Some fixes for cell execution on Python 3.11.
   - Some fixes to shortcuts (Switch to Editor, Find Next, Find Previous).
   - Some fixes to improve compatibility with PySide2.
   - Some fixes to prevent blurry SVG icons.

In this release we fixed 48 issues and merged 59 pull requests that amount 
to more than 292 commits. For a full list of fixes, please see our Changelog 
<https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/blob/5.x/CHANGELOG.md>.

Regarding the new experimental conda-based installers, with this release we 
started building them for MacOS (arm64 and x86_64 architectures) and Linux 
(so a new way to install Spyder on Linux is available!). You can find them 
on the Spyder 5.4.0 release page 
<https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/releases/tag/v5.4.0> in the assets 
section (the .pkg files for MacOS and a .sh file for Linux with the prefix 
EXPERIMENTAL). Any feedback regarding this new way of installation is 
greatly appreciated.

Don't forget to follow Spyder updates/news on the project's website 
<https://www.spyder-ide.org/>.

Last, but not least, we welcome any contribution that helps making Spyder 
an efficient scientific development and computing environment. Join us to 
help creating your favorite environment!

Enjoy!

Daniel
