    + Color Filters: Added "Junction" to the factory default color 
      filters.
    ! Action Log: Captions had empty strings when actions were done on 
      search results. Fixed.
    ! Undo/Redo: Tree was not always correctly updated in the special 
      folders section. Fixed.
    ! Tabs: Selecting a Search Results tab so that the mouse pointer 
      ended up right on the X close button could under certain 
      conditions lead to closing that tab when releasing the mouse 
      button. Fixed.

v8.60.0005 - 2009-11-08 12:54
    + Configuration | File Info Tips: Added option "Show custom file 
      info tips". Before, this option was implicitly ON always. Now it's 
      by factory default OFF. Having it OFF will show the default file 
      info tips, which are exactly the ones you would see if you used 
      Windows Explorer. This has a couple of advantages:
      - You can see specific 3rd party extensions of the file info tips 
        (e.g. by MediaInfo) which are not shown in XYplorer when you 
        turn "Show custom file info tips" ON.
      - Using the default tip (and with "Show MP3 info tips" OFF), you 
        can now see the ID3v2 (XY internally only supports ID3v1) info 
        of mp3 files in the file info tip if your shell/OS supports it.
    * Configuration | File Info Tips: Increased the number of items in 
      the "custom file info tips" list, depending on OS:
      Under Vista/Win7 you will have 267 different fields now, and under 
      XP or lower 41 different fields.
      Also the indices, starting with 0 (zero), are now shown in the 
      list. You can use these indices with SC property() in scripts 
      like:
        msg property("#2"); //type of current item
    * Configuration | File Info Tips: The XYplorer-only "extra fields" 
      are now listed in a separate list.
    ! Toolbar | Undo, Action Log: Could crash on certain filenames 
      because of a buggy ellipse routine working on trimming the 
      captions. Fixed.

    + Now you can right-drag items to the outside and get the context 
      menu you expect to see, including "Create Shortcut(s) Here" and 
      other stuff depending on the dragged items. The probably biggest 
      and oldest mystery in the history of XY development looks like 
      solved. Holy Dragon Drop!

    + Tree: Now also supports the better dragging (see v8.60.0006).
    * Undo/Redo: Improved refreshing of Tree within special folders.
    ! Action Log, Toolbar Undo Menu: Misleading captions when an action 
      was triggered off the current path, e.g. by using a script. Fixed.

    + Info Panel | Preview: Added "Zoom smaller originals to fit preview 
      area" to the preview panel's orange-icon-menu for video files.
    * List: Now auto-refresh is suspended while you are drawing a 
      selection box on the list.
    * Menu Go | Go to from Here: Now supports relative paths. They are 
      resolved relative to the current path (whereas in the normal "Go 
      to" and Address Bar they are resolved relative to app path).
    ! Tree: Glitch when drag-moving the current folder into a non-
      expanded folder. Fixed.

v8.60.0102 - 2009-11-12 20:05
    + Configuration | Backup & Report: Backup operations enhanced by 
      adding two configuration options:
      - Preserve item dates: Here you can decide whether the three item 
        dates (created, modified, accessed) are preserved with the copy. 
        Before, it was hard-coded to YES (preserve).
      - On name collision: Here you can configure what happens on a name 
        collision. Before, there was only one hard-coded option: 
        overwrite if target is older than source. Now you have the 
        choice between five options:
          * Overwrite only older files [factory default]
            (do nothing if the target file is same age or younger)
          * Overwrite always
          * Suffix number
          * Suffix date now
          * Suffix date modified
        This means you now have the popular copy-avec-rename-on-
        collision in XYplorer!
    * Configuration: Renamed page "Reporting" to "Backup & Report".

v8.60.0104 - 2009-11-13 13:00
    + Configuration | Backup & Report | On name collision: Added a 
      further option called "Overwrite never". Copies only files that 
      don't exist in the destination, otherwise does nothing.
    + SC backupto enhanced: Now you can set the behavior on collision 
      right in the call.
      Syntax: backupto location, [source], [on_collision]
        on_collision:
          0 = [Default] Use global setting from Configuration | Backup & 
              Report | On name collision
          1 = Overwrite only older files
          2 = Overwrite always
          3 = Overwrite never
          4 = Suffix number
          5 = Suffix date now
          6 = Suffix date modified
      Examples:
        // backup selected items; on collision suffix date now
        backupto "E:\Test", , 5;
        // backup selected items; on collision do what's stated in 
        // Configuration | Backup & Report | On name collision
        backupto "E:\Test";
    ! Wheel: Several wheel driven operations had reversed the expected 
      direction after adding support for high-resolution mouse wheel 
      recently. Fixed.
    ! Enhanced drag'n'drop crashed on any OS < XP. Fixed: No more 
      (attempted) enhanced drag'n'drop on any OS < XP.

    + SC backupto enhanced:
      Syntax: backupto location, [source], [on_collision], _
                  [preserve_dates], [create_log]
        preserve_dates:
          (only applied if the file itself is copied)
          Empty = Use global setting from Configuration.
          0 = Whether/which dates are copied depends on OS.
          1 = All three dates are copied.
        create_log:
          Empty = Use global setting from Configuration.
          0 = Don't.
          1 = Do.
      Example:
        // backup selected items; on collision suffix date now;
        // preserve dates; create log
        backupto "E:\Test", , 5, 1, 1;
    * Configuration | Backup & Report: Changed order of items.
    ! Configuration | Backup & Report | Preserve item dates: The 
      setting was not yet actually implemented, whoops. Fixed.
    * Tabs: Now wheeling the tabs, either scroll thru tabs (Wheel) or 
      move tabs (Shift+Wheel), will not wrap around the edges anymore.

v8.60.0106 - 2009-11-16 21:07
  +++ Find Files: Now you can directly search for Tags and Comments!
      Simply prefix "tag:" or "comment:" (case does not matter) to the 
      search term in the name field, and the whole term is matched 
      against the tag respectively comment of each file instead of 
      against the name.
      All other things work as usual, including Boolean and RegExp 
      search.
      Examples:
      - tag:"red" //find all items with tag "red"
      - tag:!"red" //find all items with no tag "red"
      - tag::"red" or "green" //with tag "red" or "green"
        the second ":" after "tag:" is the inline Boolean search marker
      - tag:"red";"green"  //same using "Loose Boolean Match" syntax
      - tag:r //find all items with "r" in the tag
      - comment:2009;2008  //with 2008 or 2009 in the comment field
        employing the "Loose Boolean Match" syntax with ";" separator
      Note that also Quick Name Search supports the new syntax, for 
      example:
        E:\Test\?tag:"blue";"red"
  +++ Find Files:  Now you can directly search for the extended 
      properties of file items, as also known from the File Info Tips. 
      Their names and indices vary strongly between different Windows 
      versions. A list is available in Configuration | File Info Tips.
      The syntax is like above with "tag:" or "comment:", only with yet 
      another field for the actual property. To identify properties by 
      their index prefix "#" to the number.
      Examples:
      - prop:fileversion:8.60 //find all items with version *8.60*
      - prop:fileversion:"8.60" // with version 8.60
      - prop:#8:Donald          // with owner *Donald*
      - prop:#26:"1024 x 768"   // with dimensions "1024 x 768"
      NOTE: While this new feature adds enormous power to XY's file 
      search, it is not extremely fast because retrieving extended 
      properties via the shell is rather slow.
    + Support for horizontal mouse wheel.

v8.60.0107 - 2009-11-17 10:34
  +++ Find Files: The Name field now supports comparison operators! This 
      means you can e.g. list all files from A to M.
         <    Less than
         >    Greater than
         <=   Less than or equal to
         >=   Greater than or equal to 
      The operators must be surrounded by spaces and are prefixed to the 
      patterns.
      When strings are compared it's about alphabetical order:
      - Find all files before "m":
        Name:  < m
      - Find all files from "d.txt" and through "m.txt"
        Name: : >= d.txt AND  < m.txt
        Watch the double space after AND: " AND " must be surrounded by 
        spaces as well!
        The leading ":" is the inline Boolean marker.
      When numbers are compared it's about numerical values.
      - Find all items whose full name is longer than 100 characters:
        Name: len: > 100
        (see next paragraph)
      Notes
      ~~~~~
      - Patterns with comparison operators should not contain wildcards; 
        they make no sense here anyway and will just be treated as 
        characters "*" and "?" in the comparison.
      - The settings "Whole words" and "Fuzzy" are ignored with patterns 
        using comparison operators.
        But, of course, the settings are applied with non-comparison-
        patterns. E.g., with "Whole words" enabled, the following term 
        will match "a d.txt" but not "ad.txt", and not "d a.txt" 
        (because it's > c.txt):
          Name: :a AND  < c.txt
        In words: Find all items, that contain "a" as a whole word, and 
        are alphabetically sorted before "c.txt".
      - It does not make sense to combine comparison operators with RegExp 
        patterns; the RegExp will not be analyzed but simply be used as a 
        string in the comparison.
    + Find Files: Now you can search by the length of an item name. 
      Simply prefix "len:" to the search term in the name field.
      - Find all items whose full name is longer than 260 characters:
        Name: len: > 260
