    ! Custom Copy: A fix in v20.40.0017 - 2019-09-26 17:27 went over the top. As 
      a result you could not use Custom Copy anymore to copy a file in-place 
      with a defined affix (e.g. "On name collisions: Affix current date to 
      copy"). Fixed.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0156.

Summary of the latest XYplorer Official Release.

v20.90.0000 - 2020-03-30 20:00
    = NEW OFFICIAL RELEASE. Main developments since last release:
  +++ Middle Truncation. Now you get the option to truncate overflowing 
      filenames in the middle instead of at the end. Useful because the end of 
      the name often has interesting info bits like dates or serial numbers.
  +++ Dark Mode with Adaptive Colors. Now you can control the retina-friendliness
      of the Dark Mode. It's your choice whether brighter colors (selections, 
      filters, highlights, etc) are automatically dimmed down a bit to make them 
      softer on the eye.
  +++ Duplicate Image Finder. Now the hash is also generated for ICO and CUR 
      files, so these image types will also be searched and found.
  +++ Compilation Soundtrack. Compiled to the music of Bob Dylan.

    * Dark mode | Adaptive Colors: Now it also affects Tree Path Tracing, Recent 
      Location Pins, Tab Bars, Breadcrumb Bars, and some other colors.
      FYI, a quick way to toggle the setting is this script via Address Bar:

    + Configuration | Colors and Styles | Highlights & Dark Mode | Dark mode: 
      Added option "Adaptive colors". Tick it to automatically dim down all 
      brighter colors (selections, filters, etc) to make them softer on the eye.
      This raises tweak "DarkAdaptive" to the UI.
    * Dark Mode: Now the tweak "DarkAdaptive" (= new setting "Adaptive colors") 
      also controls the selection colors ("Configuration | Colors and Styles | 
      Highlights & Dark Mode | Selections in focused controls" and 
      "Configuration | Colors and Styles | Highlights & Dark Mode | Selections 
      in non-focused controls").
    * MLS: Internally updated to version 8.120.
      > TRANSLATORS: Please wait until Reference_8.120.lng is uploaded.

    + Network: Extended the support for WSL. Now "\\wsl$" is accepted as valid 
      server name (normally "$" is not a valid character for servers).
    ! SC selectitems: When the first item in the list started with a numeric 
      value (eg "002.txt"), the wrong number of items would be selected. Fixed.

v20.80.0502 - 2020-03-24 13:35
    + Configuration | Colors and Styles | Styles: Added option "Truncate 
      filenames in the middle". Tick it to put the ellipsis in the middle of 
      overflowing filenames, instead of to the end.
    ! Find Files | Dupes: When searching for "Name" dupes with "Different 
      Extension" or "Ignore Extension" some dupes could have been overlooked 
      because the internal sorting here was done by name instead of by base.
      For example, in this setup the first and last file should be recognized as 
      Name dupes (actually Base dupes) with the above settings, but they were 
      overlooked because they were not adjacent after the sorting:
        filename.mp4
        filename.shd.xml
        filename.srt
      Fixed.

    ! Configuration | Information | Tags | Customize up to 31 Label captions and 
      colors: In case of the text color being the "default text color" (to set 
      this you hold CTRL and press the Text Color... button) the wrong text 
      color was shown in this list. This but only surfaced when the List text 
      color (Configuration | Colors and Styles | Colors | Text) was set to 
      something other than black, because it is this color that used as "default 
      text color" for Labels. Fixed.
