    + Info Panel | Report | Current List: Now names with wide characters 
      (Unicode) are supported.
    + Info Panel | Report | Current Folder: Added a 4th report type 
      "Basic info to CSV". It only returns PathName, Size (Raw), and 
      Modified Date for each file item (folders are not returned, just 
      like in "Extended info to CSV").
    * Info Panel | Report | Current Folder: Simplified the Version 
      choices under "Classic directory dump". Now it's always the String 
      File Version.
    * Rename Special: Now, by smart internal auto-resorting of the 
      rename jobs, you can batch rename also nested bulks (that contain 
      folders and their contents, both being renamed).
    ! List: For a couple of versions the current file (shown in Info 
      Panel) got reset when lasso-selecting other files in the list. 
      Fixed.

    + Scripting got a new function.
      Name:   folderreport
      Action: Creates a report on a folder.
      Syntax: folderreport([type=dump], [target=clipboard], [folder], _
                  [flags], [outputfile])
        type:     Type of report, one of the following:
          dump: [Default] Classic directory dump.
          bcsv: Basic info to CSV.
          ecsv: Extended info to CSV.
          tree: Tree structure only.
          list: The current list contents.
        target:   Target of report, one of the following:
          c, clipboard:  Copy to clipboard.
          f, file:       Write to file.
          p, printer:    Print.
          r, return:     Return data to running script.
        folder:   Folder to report on;
                  defaults to the current folder.
        flags:
          a:  Append to output file.
              Only for target "file"
          r:  Recurse subfolders.
              Not for type "list".
          v:  Include version information.
              Only for types "dump" and "bcsv".
        outputfile: Output file.
              Only for target "file".
        return:   The report data (if target is "return").
      Remarks:
        - The function provides scripting access to the commands 
          available on the Report tab in the Info Panel.
        - The behavior is not fully controlled by scripting, but also by 
          settings in Configuration | Report, and in Info Panel | Report.
          However, the properties that *are* controllable by scripting 
          overwrite the interface settings. E.g. the state of the 
          "Include subfolders" checkbox has no impact on the behavior of 
          folderreport; this property is only controlled by the "flags" 
          parameter.
      Examples:
        ::folderreport("dump", "clipboard", "E:\Test\", "r")
        ::folderreport("dump", "file")
        ::folderreport("dump", "file", <xypath>, "a", "C:\temp\test.txt")
        ::folderreport("bcsv", "c", "C:\Program Files\XYplorer\", "v")
        ::text folderreport("dump", "r", "C:\Programme\XYplorer\", "v")
To download the latest BETA version choose a download package: (1) Installer Package, (2) Portable Package.

    + Scripting got a new function.
      Name:   catalogreport
      Action: Creates a report on the Catalog.
      Syntax: catalogreport(template_category, template_item, _
                  [currentcategory=0])
        template_category:  Template for categories.
          The following variables are supported:
          {Caption}   = Caption field.
          {Location}  = Location field ("Description" in Categories)
          {RGB Text}  = Text color in RRGGBB format.
          {RGB Back}  = Background color in RRGGBB format.
        template_item:      Template for items.
          Variables see template_category above.
        currentcategory:
          0: [Default] Report on whole catalog.
          1: Report on current category.
        return:             The report.
      Remarks:
        - The variables are case-sensitive: "{caption}" won't work.
        - If a field is empty the variable is left unresolved.
        - If "Apply Colors" in Catalog Properties is OFF then the color 
          variables are left unresolved.
        - Multi-line data in location fields (i.e. scripts) are folded 
          into one line. The CR+LF sequences are replaced by 
          PILCROW+TAB.
      Examples:
        ::text catalogreport("{Caption}","- {Caption}: {Location}");
        ::text catalogreport("Category: {Caption}", _
            "  {Caption}, {Location}, {RGB Text}, {RGB Back}");
    * SC folderreport enhanced:
        type:
          dirs: List of subfolders (like a flat Tree structure).
        flags:
          p:  Prompt to view output file.
              Only for target "file".

    + Toolbar | Toggle Visual Filter: Now the button's context menu 
      features two settings that are only available here:
      - Persist Visual Filters Across Folders
      - Toggle On Same Filter
      The latter one is new. If checked then applying the same filter to 
      a filtered list again will remove the filter. So now you can have 
      e.g. a Catalog item "|*.txt" that works as a VF toggle.
    % List paints faster when toggling Visual Filters.
    ! Folder Reports: Minor sorting bug since v9.90.0204. Fixed.

      - "Search This Branch"  (including subfolders)
      - "Search Here"         (not including subfolders)
      The options are found at the bottom of the button's dropdown menu.
    ! Menu Edit | New: The "New Folder" and "New Text File" commands 
      took the path for the new folder from the tree even if the tree 
      was locked or blocked (because the path could not be displayed in 
      the Tree for whatever reasons). Fixed. Now the path is taken from 
      the list unless the "New [...]" command is invoked directly from 
      within the Tree.

v9.90.0304 - 2011-02-13 11:26
    + Scripting: Added foreach loops. General syntax:
        foreach($variable, listoftokens, [separator=|]) {
          statement(s);
        }

      Remarks:
        - $variable is the variable which receives the value of the next 
          token in each round of the loop. You can use a new variable or 
          an already used one, it does not matter.
        - The last value of $variable remains even after the foreach 
          loop.
        - listoftokens is a string of tokens, separated by a separator.
        - The separator defaults to "|" (pipe), but can be set to 
          anything, also multi-character strings.
        - Surrounding spaces are not trimmed off on each side of the 
          tokens.
        - If listoftokens is nothing ("") the loop will still be 
          executed one time with $variable set to nothing.
        - SC break and SC continue are supported.

      Example 1:
        // returns 3 strings (moon, sun, venus):
          foreach($token, "moon,sun,venus", ",") {
            echo $token;
          }

      Example 2:
        // nested foreach loops
          foreach($token, "a|b|c") {
            foreach($token2, "1,2,3", ",") {
              echo $token . $token2;
            }
          }

      Example 3:
        // selected list items
          foreach($token, <get selecteditemspathnames |>) {
            echo $token;
          }

    ! Catalog: For a couple of versions newly added items defaulted to 
      colors Black on Black. Fixed.

      If ticked the current INI file is auto-backupped to the new folder 
      <xydata>\AutoBackup before it is modified if the last auto-backup 
      is older than 24h.
      Factory default is ON.
    + CKS | Miscellaneous | Focus: Added command "View First Selected 
      Item" (#1049). In the List, moves the first selected item into 
      view (top position). Also focuses the list if necessary. If no 
      item is selected nothing is done. 
    ! Scripting: SC sel did not update the list fast enough which could

    + Configuration | File Operations | Backup Operations: Added option 
      "Skip junctions". Tick it to exclude folder junctions and their 
      contents from the backup.
      Note that if this option is OFF (which is the factory default) 
      then folder junctions are not backed up as junctions but as if 
      they were real folders with contents. In other words, the 
      junctions are resolved before the copying. This is in accordance 
      with Explorer behavior.
    + SC backupto enhanced: Added parameter skip_junctions.
      Syntax: backupto location, [source], [on_collision], _
                  [preserve_dates], [create_log], [pop_stats], _
                  [skip_junctions]
        skip_junctions:
          Empty = Use global setting from Configuration.
          0 = Don't.
          1 = Do.         
    + Tweak to force shell preview for file types of your choice. For 
      example (list of extensions separated by dots):
        DoPrevShell=dng.nef
      This will force shell preview for DNG and NEF files on the Preview 
      tab and with Thumbnails.

      in file names like "name_1.png". Fixed.
