There are times when one might not have access to web...but as user would like to review the change log to see why something doesn't work the way you remember it or to find that new improved feature...thus:
Dump the change log to a TXT file in XY folder and call it ChangeLog.TXT or similar...and then have a shortcut option in HELP to invoke it via whatever user has to process a TXT file...you have "keyboard help" etc already there, so one more wouldn't hurt...
I'd put all the logs since name changed to XY in there...but further back, it might be confusing....
Change log history to a TXT file as part of install!

It's all on the website (http://www.xyplorer.com/history.htm). I find it too specific/overdone for the normal installation package.

I looked there...but that is only as current as the last "official" release...
And if it was done as HTML file vs TXt, that'd also work...there are many packages/pgrms that include this type of change file...and again, having it offline can be a help for a mobile user...plus an extra few KB for a change file wouldn't even be noticed by most all users, i would suspect...

I have a History.txt file going back a long way - I add to it each time there is a new beta. Donald has my e-mail address so perhaps he could pass it on to you (or pass your's to me, if he has it). I could then send you the History.txt file if you want it. For obvious reason I don't want to put my e-mail address on the forum!
