    + Toolbar | Paper Folders | Right-Click Menu: Added command "Open Source File of this 
      Paper Folder". Opens the source file of the currently listed Paper Folder with the 
      application associated with TXT files.
      If you edit and save the file, press F5 to update the Paper Folder in the list.
    * Paper Folders: Now an explicit list refresh (F5 or Ctrl+F5) will reread the Paper 
      Folder from the source file even if "Explicit Save Only" is enabled.
    + SC extlist enhanced: Added another list, raising it from tweak to semi-tweak.
      Syntax: extlist(type, [extensionlist], [switches])
        type: Which extension list to customize.
          NoThumb: File types for which no thumbnails are generated. 
      Examples:
        echo extlist("NoThumb", "?");    //show current NoThumb file extensions
        extlist("NoThumb");              //open "No Thumbnails - File Extensions" dialog
        extlist("NoThumb", "mht.mpg");   //set NoThumb to these extensions
        extlist("NoThumb", "");          //reset any NoThumb extensions
    * Updated the help file.

    + SC conf enhanced: Now you can use it to get/set the tweaks ThumbsOverlaySpecs and 
      ThumbsOverlayContent.
      Examples:
        echo conf("ThumbsOverlaySpecs"); //get current value
        echo conf("ThumbsOverlayContent"); //get current value
        conf("ThumbsOverlayContent", '<prop #image.datetaken>'); //date taken
        conf("ThumbsOverlayContent", ""); //back to default (i.e. show dimensions of original)
        conf("ThumbsOverlaySpecs", "FFFF00,FF0000,128,1"); //yellow on semitransparent red with ThousandSeparator
        conf("ThumbsOverlaySpecs", ""); //back to default (white on semitransparent black)
      Note that with ThumbsOverlaySpecs you can set certain values while leaving the 
      others untouched:
        conf("ThumbsOverlaySpecs", ",,,,,120"); //bigger text (120%)
      Note the use of single and double quotes. Outer single quotes protect the variable 
      from being resolved before it is passed to SC conf. Now double quotes can and must 
      be used inside to protect the space after ©:
        conf("ThumbsOverlayContent", '<prop #image.datetaken "© ">');
      Finally, a luxurious three-liner (_ is just used to break it up here in the change log):  
        conf("ThumbsOverlayContent", '<prop #image.dimensions><crlf><prop #image.focallength> _
            <prop #image.fstop> <prop #image.exposuretime> <prop #image.isospeed><crlf><prop #image.datetaken "© ">');
    ! Configuration | Preview | Thumbnails | Thumbnails View Background | Use: Under 
      certain conditions this color was lost when toggling overlays. Fixed.

    + Added a tweak to customize the content of the thumbnail overlay (which by default 
      shows the dimensions of the original image). Now you can show any properties you 
      want using the usual syntax.
      For example, the "date taken" might be more interesting to you than the image size, 
      especially if all your images are the same size. You could do it like this:
        ThumbsOverlayContent=<prop #image.datetaken '© '>
      It will put a '©' in front of the date if there is one, otherwise no overlay will be 
      shown.
      Linefeeds are supported with <crlf>. This is a two-liner:
        ThumbsOverlayContent=<prop #image.focallength> <prop #image.fstop> <prop #image.exposuretime> _
            <prop #image.isospeed><crlf><prop #image.datetaken '© '>
    + Configuration | Preview | Thumbnails | Show dimensions of original: Now you can 
      toggle this setting with the keyboard shortcut assigned to "View | Columns | Shrink 
      Name Column" (Ctrl+Shift+Numpad Subtract by default) if the list is in thumbnails view.
      FYI, similarly the "View | Columns | Grow Name Column" shortcut can toggle 
      "Configuration | Preview | Thumbnails | Overlay caption" and the "View | Columns | 
      Autosize Columns Now" shortcut can toggle "Configuration | Preview | Thumbnails | 
      Show caption".

    * Configuration | Preview | Thumbnails | Show dimensions of original: Now the 
      semi-transparent background of the dimensions is slightly rounded at the corners  
      and a bit darker, the font size is slightly smaller, and there are thousand 
      separators where needed.

        ShowPicSizeEmbedded=0   'show original size (default)
        ShowPicSizeEmbedded=1   'show embedded size
        ShowPicSizeEmbedded=1   'show embedded and original size, the latter in parentheses

    * SC rename: Now when you add a suffix to a file that is formally just an extension 
      without a base (e.g. .htaccess), the suffix is appended to the full filename, not 
      before the period. For example:
        rename b, '*-<datem yyyymmdd>'; // Test.txt  --> Test-20240218.txt
                                        // .htaccess --> .htaccess-20240218
      The same kind of exception is already used in the various "File | Duplicate | Copy 
      Here" functions since 20150612.
    * File | Rename Special | Set Extension...: A file that is formally just an extension 
      without a base (e.g. .htaccess) is now seen as a file without extension.
