TrackerV3 BETA version (v3.50.0141, 12-aug-2004).
Note: Because of some fundamental changes in certain modules I'm very interested to hear from users of Win98 or ME whether the Find Files still works as expected. Let's hear it, folks!

% Find files: due to a massive internal redesign finding files is now
considerably faster in general, and esp. with complex boolean search
terms: here the speed is practically doubled!
There's an extra performance boost for NT/2K/XP machines.
% Browsing folders as well received a general performance boost.
! Find files: too many results issue. When searching for "1" in a folder
with files with long file names, and you'd see more find results than
expected. The reason: the character "1" is present in many DOS-file
names (8.3 style) and those names have been scanned, too. Fixed.
+ Find files: added case-sensitivity. A case-sensitive search for *.JPG
will not match *.jpg. Note also that case-sensitive searches are
slightly faster than case-insensitive searches.
+ New wildcard for digits in file names (0-9): "#" stands for one digit,
for example:
- *-##.txt: finds all files whose basename ends in a hyphen plus 2 digits.
- #: finds all files with at least one digit
+ Added the ability to define charlists in the search term: a group of
one or more characters enclosed in brackets ([ ]) can be used to match
any single character in the filename, for example:
- [abc]: finds all files with "a", "b" or "c" in the name.
- [!abc]: finds all files without "a", "b" or "c" in the name.

+ Display of cluster count now also for shared drives.
! An overflow error plus crash could happen under these conditions:
- working on network shared drives
- showing folder sizes in the files list
- files in folder summing up to > 2GB
Fixed.
