    + SC ThumbsConf enhanced: Added optional "flags" argument:
      Syntax: thumbsconf([settings="ShowCaption,ZoomToFill,Style,Padding,Transparency, _
                  ShowIcon,ShowDimensions,OverlayCaption,FolderThumbs,ZoomToFit"], [separator=","], [flags])
        flags (bit field):
          0 = [Default]
          1 = NoRefresh. Changing Transparency causes a refresh of all current thumnbails. 
              Pass this bit to suppress the refresh.
      Example: 
        thumbsconf(",,,,1,,,,,", ,1); //set transparency to "grid"
    + SC exit enhanced: Now you can use it restart an elevated XYplorer as unelevated 
      (without administrator rights).
      Name:   Exit
      Action: Exit XYplorer, optionally with restart.
      Syntax: exit [mode]
        mode: 
          sru = restart unelevated with saving
          nru = restart unelevated without saving

    * Custom Copy | Progress Dialog: The automatic cascading of dialog positions in an 
      8-step diamond shape (added v10.50.0004 - 2011-10-28 11:29) now only occurs in 
      background processes.
    ! Custom Event Actions | Exit: When a script was triggered that called a background 
      process (XYcopy.exe) due to "Configuration | File Operations | File Operations | 
      Background Processing | Enable background processing" instances of XYcopy.exe could 
      pile up in memory. Fixed. Now processes are forced to the foreground when triggered 
      while exiting the app.

    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0285.

    * Icon on Taskbar: The automatic taskbar refresh, i.e., moving the app icon to the 
      taskbar of the new monitor when the app is dragged to it, is back. This feature was 
      temporarily removed to fix the PowerToys FancyZones crash.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0286.

    + SC inputselect enhanced: Now you can specify the listdata field separator when using 
      style 1024. Previously, it was hard-coded to |.
      Syntax: inputselect(header, listdata, [separator="|"], [style=1], [cancel], _
              [width=800], [height=400], [windowcaption], [preselectprefix], [icon], _
              [preselectitem], [listdatafieldseparator="|"])
        listdatafieldseparator: On style 1024, the fields are separated by this string (can 
                                be more than one character).
                                Defaults to | (Caption|Data|Icon).                                
      Example (using a different separator frees | for other tasks, e.g. in RegExp):
        echo inputselect('FastFinds', 'Music files#goto "?>(flac|opus|mp3)$"#:qson', ':::', 1 + 1024, 11:=#);

    * Configuration | Colors and Styles | Highlights & Dark Mode | Dark mode | Adaptive 
      colors: Now when this is off while in dark mode and your Tree and List colors 
      (Configuration | Colors and Styles | Colors) are set to a hard dark mode (light text 
      on dark back), then those colors are now printed exactly as you defined them (in 
      Tree, List, and Catalog). Gives you more control over a custom dark mode scheme.
    * Configuration | Colors and Styles | Colors | Apply colors: Now the colors are also 
      applied to tab styles "XYplorer Style" and "XYplorer Style (Rounded)" (Configuration 
      | Tabs and Panes | Tabs | Visual style).
    ! Configuration | Colors and Styles | Colors | Apply colors: Fixed various glitches.
    ! Go | Recent Locations...: Overlong items didn't show Custom File Icons when they 
      should. Fixed.

    + Custom Toolbar Buttons: Now you can define disabled text buttons, where disabled 
      means: not clickable and no mouse over effect (right-click still works).
      To be placed in the Name field of the Edit User Button dialog:
        Syntax:   text:DIS::[your text]
        Example:  text:DIS::Can't click this
      You can use such pseudo-buttons as captions for button groups, or as spacers (with 
      the text just being a chain of space characters).
    + Added a tweak to customize the contrast of the separators against their background 
      (Toolbar, Tabs, Status Bar). The factory default is 10. Max is 100. 0 will reset to 
      default. -1 makes the separators invisible.
        SeparatorContrast=30      'three times the default contrast
    * SC air: Now defaults to 6 (was 2).
    * Configuration | Colors and Styles | Colors | Apply colors: Now the colors are also 
      applied if "Configuration | Tabs and Panes | Tabs | Visual style" is set to "XYplorer 
      Style" or "XYplorer Style (Rounded)".
    * Configuration | Colors and Styles | Colors | Match selected tab with breadcrumb bar: 
      Now the colors are also applied if "Configuration | Tabs and Panes | Tabs | Visual 
      style" is set to "XYplorer Style" or "XYplorer Style (Rounded)".
    > So, the tab visual style no longer affects the colors. Independence is achieved!
    ! Configuration | Colors and Styles | Colors | Apply colors: Changes here were not 
      always applied without a restart. Fixed.
    ! Configuration | Colors and Styles | Colors | Match selected tab with breadcrumb bar: 
      Changes here were not always applied without a restart. Fixed.
    ! Configuration | Tabs and Panes | Tabs | Visual style: If set to "XYplorer Style 
      (Rounded)" the rounded corners could come out pixely if "Configuration | Colors and 
      Styles | Colors | Apply colors" was enabled. Fixed.
    ! Menu Help | List All Commands...: A double-click on empty or on the column headers 
      would trigger OK on the focused but non-selected item if only this item was shown 
      due to filtering. Fixed. Now nothing happens.

    > Custom Toolbar Buttons: The new prefix "DIS::" works not only for text buttons, but 
      for all CTBs, including those with icons. This means you can now place non-clickable 
      icons in your toolbar.
    * Custom Toolbar Buttons: The "DIS::" prefix now has to be the first, so in the Name 
      field it's either of these syntaxes:
          DIS::[text]         = Non-clickable button with icon (if icon is defined)
          DIS::text:[text]    = Non-clickable text button
    * Custom Toolbar Buttons: Now, if a Name is defined but no Icon, the button is 
      automatically displayed as a text button, i.e. the text in the Name field is used as 
      the button graphics.      
    ! Custom Toolbar Buttons: Fixed some "DIS::"-related glitches.

    + File | Rename Special: Now the various Rename Special functions will obey to 
      "Configuration | General | Sort and Rename | Rename | Auto-replace invalid 
      characters" and use the character defined in "Configuration | Colors and Styles | 
      Templates | Dropped Messages | Character to replace invalid characters in dropped 
      messages" as replacement.
    * Configuration | Colors and Styles | Colors | Apply colors: A slight adjustment to 
      the recent changes makes the default tab colors (Configuration | Colors and Styles | 
      Colors | Tabs) work in dark mode.
    * Updated the help file.
    ! Visual Filters and Live Filters: When opening new tabs in the inactive pane (e.g. by 
      Shift-Alt-Click in the tree), the filters of the current tab were incorrectly if 
      only partially applied to the new tab, and sometimes the filters of the previously 
      active tab were forgotten because they were never fully applied in the first place 
      (e.g. when setting a backpane live filter by "|||L>*.sys" in the address bar). Fixed.
    ! Custom File Icons: Didn't always work for mapped drives in the tree. Fixed.

    + Scripting got a new function.
      Name: DualPane
      Action: Shows, hides, or toggles the second list pane.
      Syntax: dualpane([show], [active])
        show:    1 = show the inactive pane
                 0 = hide the inactive pane
                -1 = toggle the inactive pane
        active:  Set active pane (ignored if only one pane is shown)
                   0 = toggle
                   1 = 1st pane
                   2 = 2nd pane
                 Add 4 to focus the active pane
                   4 = toggle and focus
                   5 = 1st pane and focus
                   6 = 2nd pane and focus
        return: 1 if both panes are displayed (before the command is executed)
                0 otherwise
      Examples:
        dualpane(1);  //show the inactive pane (no change if already shown)
        dualpane(0);  //hide the inactive pane (no change if already hidden)
        dualpane(-1); //toggle the inactive pane
        echo dualpane(); //get the current state
        dualpane(, 0); //toggle active pane
        dualpane(1, 6); //show both panes, activate the 2nd pane and focus it
    + SC echo enhanced: You can now state a duration after which the dialog will 
      auto-close.
      Syntax: echo text, [topic], [subtopic], [duration]
        duration: (optional) Time in ms after which the dialog auto-closes.
      Example:
        echo "hi!", 3:=2000; //auto-close after 2 seconds
    ! Dark Mode: On startup in dark mode, the line number column of the active pane would 
      be light colored under certain conditions. Fixed.
    ! Custom Toolbar Buttons: If the right-click script contained variables, for example
        text <get loadtimes 0>, 800, 800;
      they were resolved before showing the button's right-click menu, leading to 
      unpredictable and often unreadable menu captions. Fixed. Now the caption shows the 
      first line of the script unresolved.
    ! Live Filter: Didn't work for Bit Depth (eg 16-bit) because it was incorrectly parsed 
      a a range (16-to-bit). Fixed.
    ! Wav Length: The duration of some exotically formatted WAV files could not be read 
      natively from the file. Fixed.
    ! Color Filters: Scope "dir:" was ignored (matching both files AND folders instead) 
      when used in a non-first part of a boolean expression. Example:
        prop:#contains.*.flac:1 OR dir:C*
      Fixed.
