    ! SC getPathComponent: The trailing colon (:) had been removed from all 
      returns, but it should have been only removed when asking for "drive". 
      Fixed.
    ! SC getPathComponent: Passing a server only did not work well with 
      component "path". Fixed.
    > Here are some examples for the fixed GetPathComponent behavior:
        echo GetPathComponent('C:\abc', 'path');    // 'C:'
        echo GetPathComponent('C:\abc', 'parent');  // 'C:'
        echo GetPathComponent('\\server', 'path');  // '\\server'      
    ! Sticky Selection: If there was only one item selected space couldn't 
      deselect that. Fixed.
    ! Type Ahead Find: Did not work well with Sticky Selection. Fixed. Now 
      Sticky Selection is ignored when you Type Ahead Find.

    * Updated the help file.
    ! SC inputselect: On style = 128 the index was returned 0-based and with a 
      leading space. Two bugs. Fixed. Now it is returned 1-based (the first item 
      = "1", nothing selected = "0") and without a leading space.

v14.50.0301 - 2014-11-11 17:28
  +++ Tiles: Now the sizes of Small Tiles and Large Tiles are freely tweakable, 
      and the factory defaults for both have been increased:
        Small Tiles: min 48, default 64, max 256, key: TilesSmallSize
        Large Tiles: min 64, default 128, max 512, key: TilesLargeSize
      Example:
        TilesSmallSize=128
        TilesLargeSize=256
      Later this will be added to Configuration (if I find a place to squeeze it 
      in).
    * Menu View | Views: The menu now shows the active tile sizes in parentheses.
    + Help | Various Information: Added some screen info.

v14.50.0302 - 2014-11-12 15:26
    + Configuration | Thumbnails | Show thumbnails in tiles views: Added "Small 
      size" and "Large size", so now there is an UI way to configure the tile 
      sizes. Hereby the tweak added to v14.50.0301 is now an official setting.
    + List | Tiles Views: Now you can freely adjust the width of the textual 
      information shown in Tiles views. This width is now identical to the width 
      of the Name column in other views, so you can adjust it via:
        View | Columns | Grow Name Column (Ctrl+Shift+Numpad Add)
        View | Columns | Shrink Name Column (Ctrl+Shift+Numpad Subtract)
        or by drag-sizing the Name column header.

    + List: Now you can abort dragging columns to new positions by pressing ESC. 
      And there is a special mouse pointer now while-u-drag.
    ! File | To Clipboard | Item Path/Name(s): Did not work correctly if the 
      List showed a path that was hidden in the Tree, and the List was focused 
      with nothing selected. Fixed.
    ! List Sorting: Random Order was incorrectly remembered as "Unsorted" on tab 
      change or between sessions. Fixed.
    ! Find Files: A dbl-click on empty in the inactive pane stopped a running 
      search in the active pane. Fixed. Now such a dbl-click will not do anything.

    * Tiles: Now Small Tiles can be as small as 32x32 pixels.
    * Tiles: Now you can minimize the name column width so that only the tiles 
      are visible without any text.
      Hey, with the recent enhancements Tiles view is now a pretty hip way to 
      view your pics.
    ! Catalog: Pressing F2 did not invoke inline rename on items without 
      caption, whereas selecting "Rename" from the context menu did. Fixed. Now 
      both invoke inline rename.
    ! Catalog: Changing the location of an item via inline rename did not update 
      the item's icon. Fixed.

v14.50.0305 - 2014-11-16 15:45
    + Scripting: Added an undocumented command that removes all thumbs from the 
      current list (only the icons will be shown for the files) and closes the 
      related cache files:
        unthumb;
    + Tiles: Added experimental tweak to show some basic photo data with Large 
      Tiles:
        TilesLargeExtraPhotoData = 1
      Notes:
      - Of course, it only works for photo files, i.e. JPEGs and all RAW formats 
        that you have Codecs for on your system. Other files will not display 
        the extra fields.
      - It currently works only under Win8 or later. And even there it might not 
        work correctly on all systems... it's just experimental. In future it 
        will probably be replaced by something more sophisticated.
    * Tiles: Now Small Tiles and Large Tiles both support sizes from 32x32 to 
      512x512. Less limits and easier to remember.
    * Tags: Searching the tags database now can be aborted by pressing ESC just 
      like normal file system searches.
    ! Licensing | Standard License: There was a flaw in the logic of determining 
      the expiration date of the one year of free version upgrades. Fixed.

    * SC unthumb: Added flag to refer to the pane to unthumb.
      Syntax: unthumb [pane=a]
      Examples:
        unthumb;
        unthumb a;
        unthumb i;
        unthumb 1;
        unthumb 2;
    * Configuration Dialog: Moved page "File Info Tips" to section Information.
    * Tiles: Experimentally the Thumbnails View Backcolor is now also used for 
      the Tiles views if they show thumbnails.

    + Show Photo Data: The experimental tweak (TilesLargeExtraPhotoData) to show 
      some basic photo data with Large Tiles can now be toggled from the 
      Ctrl+RightClick context menu in Large Tiles view.
    + Show Photo Data: Now it also works for Win7.
    + Copy Data: Now Copy Data via Ctrl+RightClick is also supported for the 
      data in Tiles views.
    ! Image dimensions: The fast routine added for NEF and DNG in v13.80.0125 - 
      2014-03-19 11:14 was not correct: It only returned the size of the 
      embedded thumbnails. Fixed. Back to the slower routine.
    * MLS: Internally updated to version 8.53.
      > TRANSLATORS: Please wait until Reference_8.53.lng is uploaded.

    * Changed some of the factory defaults for thumbnail sizes. The idea is to 
      share the cache with the Tiles views.
        Thumbnails #1:  64 x  64  (before:  96 x 72)  = Small Tiles
        Thumbnails #2: 128 x 128  (before: 128 x 96)  = Large Tiles
        Thumbnails #3: 240 x 180
    + View | Columns | Autosize Columns Now	(Ctrl+Numpad Add): On Tiles views 
      this command will now toggle the size of the Name column only (i.e. the 
      width of the tiles data area) between optimal size (minimal size to fully 
      show the longest filename) and minimal column size (to totally hide the 
      tiles data).
    + View | Columns | Autosize Columns Now	(Ctrl+Numpad Add): On Thumbs views 
      this command will now toggle the captions visibility. Might not be very 
      logical given the name of the command, but once you got used to the 
      similar functionality in Tiles views you quickly come to expect this 
      behavior.
    * Tiles Views: Dropped the Type field, instead put Size and Modified in 
      different lines. More readable and less boring.
    + List: Now you can abort/undo resizing columns by pressing ESC.

    * View | Columns | Autosize Columns Now (Ctrl+Numpad Add): On Tiles views 
      this command will now measure the width of the data below the filename 
      instead of the filename itself. That way a few XXL filenames will not 
      affect the layout of the whole list, and the data are shown uncropped even 
      on short filenames.
    * Show Photo Data: Now the data are shown without the field names.

        ISO Speed
