Deprecated commands and obsolete parameters in v28.00+

[Raf]

There have been changes in scripting commands after v28.00 release.

• If you are using XY v27.20-- (x32) here you will find a short documentation about ALL deprecated commands (they are no longer updated and may not be supported.).
• If you are using XY v28.00++ (x64), here you will find ALL commands (and parameters) that should preferably be removed from your scripts.

Deprecated commands:

• Md5(string, [flags (0|1)])
  Calculates the md5 hash of a string. Replace with Hash()
• MiddleTruncation [value]
  Sets middle truncation in the Name column of the file list. Replace with Conf()
• PathVirtual([path], [flags (0|1|2)])
  Returns the virtual path for a given path. Replace with PathSpecial()
• Preview64 [tryfirst (""|0,32|1,64|f|v)], [fallback (0|1)]
  Sets sequence of preview attempts and optional fallback. Replace with Preview
• Zip_List([zipfile], [separator="|"], [flags])
  Lists the items in a Zip archive. Replace with Zip_List2.
