Change Log for the latest XYplorer BETA version (32-bit):

Code: Select all

v27.10.0401 - 2025-08-10 12:11
    + New Constant: <cr> is resolved to the Carriage Return byte (0D).
    + New Constant: <lf> is resolved to the Line Feed byte (0A).
    > Constants <cr> and <lf> take an optional count parameter for repetition. Example:
        echo "Catch<lf 22>22";    
    * Percentage: In various contexts, such as the "Reduced to" dimensions in the Hover 
      Box, ratios from 0.995 to 0.999 were rounded up and shown as 100%. Not good. Now,
      those values are rounded down to 0.99 and shown as 99%.

    + Floating Preview: Added a way to auto-position the viewer at the end of a previewed 
      text file. Currently implemented as a tweak:
        FPTextTail=1
    % Thumbnails: Experimentally implemented a little speed boost for non-cached 
      thumbnails. Exponentially more noticeable the more thumbnails there are.

Code: Select all

v27.10.0403 - 2025-08-12 10:10
    + Floating Preview: Added toggle "Auto-Scroll to End" (Ctrl+E). Enable it to 
      automatically position the viewer at the end of a previewed text file. This can be 
      useful e.g. when viewing log files.
      The toggle is available in the context menu of the Floating Preview status bar 
      (which can be toggled by pressing S). The Ctrl+E keyboard shortcut is always 
      available (independently of the status bar and of the previewed file type), but of 
      course it only affects previewed texts.
      FYI, this raises tweak FPTextTail to the UI.

      being created. Previously, some items were omitted. If there's a hang, you can now 
      see which item is causing it.
    * Info Panel | Raw View: Renamed the "Tail" toggle to "Auto-Scroll to End".

Change Log for the latest XYplorer BETA version (32-bit):

Code: Select all

v27.10.0405 - 2025-08-13 20:42
    + Configuration | General | Sort and Rename | Sort: Added option "Treat hyphens and 
      apostrophes like normal characters".
      Background: Unless it's a binary comparison, Windows's string comparison treats 
      hyphens and apostrophes in a special way that might not produce the desired sort 
      order. Now you are in control. For example:
        Not ticked:         Ticked:
          File.txt            File.txt
          File'A.txt          File'A.txt
          File-A.txt          File'C.txt
          FileB.txt           File-A.txt
          File'C.txt          File-C.txt
          File-C.txt          FileB.txt
      Remarks:
        - This setting only affects the Text and Natural sort methods.
        - And it only affects sorting in the main file list. Not in the folder tree and 
          not anywhere else.
        - Ticking this setting will slow down sorting a tiny bit, so if you don't need it, 
          don't tick it.

    + Custom Copy: When moving folders with contents to another volume (or to the same 
      volume with "CustomMoveIntraFastFolder=0") there is a post-processing phase "Empty 
      source folders are removed...".
      This phase used to freeze (with a nonresponsive progress dialog) on very large jobs 
      (thousands of folders). But not anymore! Now, there is live progress feedback.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0274.
    * SC filter: Since v7.90.0078 - 2009-01-27 21:16, the Visual Filter patterns used by 
      this command have not been added to the Visual Filter Most Recently Used (MRU) list. 
      However, this was inconsistent with the behavior of other comparable patterns, such 
      as Live Filters and Ghost Filters. Therefore, the change was made so that the 
      patterns are added to the MRU.

Code: Select all

v27.10.0602 - 2025-08-23 12:36
    + Scripting got a new function.
      Name: MRU
      Action: Adds an item to an MRU list and returns the last used item from the list.
      Syntax: mru(type, [add])
        type: Type of list.
          vf: Visual Filters (currently this is the only supported list)
        add: [optional] Item to add to the top of the list (= last used).
             If missing or empty, the current list is not altered.
        return: Last used item from the list (before adding the "add" item).
      Examples:
        echo mru("vf"); //show the last used Visual Filter
        mru("vf", "*.txt"); //set "*.txt" as last used Visual Filter
    * SC filter: Removed the change from v27.10.0502 - 2025-08-16 12:51. Setting Visual 
      Filters with SC filter will not update the Visual Filter MRU list anymore, just like 
      it was all the time since v7.90.0078 - 2009-01-27 21:16.
      If you want your scripted filter in the MRU list, you now can use SC mru (see above).
