Code: Select all

v24.00.0008 - 2023-01-26 19:20
    * SC obfuscate: Some more special characters are now excluded from obfuscation:
        .\|/<>"".,;:()[]{}+-*%^$@?! and Space and CR and LF
      Before it was only:
        .\: and Space and CR and LF
      These excluded characters help to understand the structure without revealing private 
      information.
    ! SC obfuscate: Did not yet obfuscate the Information Bars. Fixed.
:info: To easily upgrade to this BETA version from XYplorer, hold down the CTRL key while you click Help | Online Support | Check for Updates. If you prefer to download the BETA version, choose one of these packages:
(1) Installer Package, (2) No-Install Package (for manual unpacking).

:!!: Note that BETA versions are work in progress and might contain fresh bugs. You have been warned. It's a good idea to backup your complete XYplorer settings (menu File | Settings Special | Backup Application Data Folder...) before running a new BETA version. This will also help in fixing any fresh bugs.

    + Virtual Folders: Now they optionally support Auto-Refresh, *if* the common path or 
      branch of the contained items supports it. That path is displayed in the Turkish Rose 
      colored Information Bar; if no path is displayed then you get no Auto-Refresh.
      For now the option is only implemented as a tweak:
        WatchVirtual=1

v24.00.0006 - 2023-01-26 12:03
    + SC get pick: The "pick" argument got two cousins, "pickall" and "pickdirs". I also 
      added "pickfiles" as an alternative to "pick" for symmetry and completeness.
        pick:       pick all files
        pickfiles:  pick all files
        pickdirs:   pick all folders
        pickall:    pick all files and folders
      Examples (using the short form without get):
        text <pickall>;     //all items, one per line
        text <pickall a*>;  //all items starting with a*, one per line
        vi:<pickall 12.m>   //VFO listing the newest 12 items from the current folder
    + SC selectitems enhanced. Now you can push the focused and selected item.
      Syntax: selectitems itemlist, [flags], [focus=1], [mode], [pane]
        focus: (bit field)
          0: Keep the focus where it is.
          1: [Default] Auto-move the focus to the first selected file.
          2: Push the focused and selected item.
      Remarks:
        Push here means that the focused and selected item is treated as if it had been 
        actively clicked on by the user. It becomes the "current item" internally, which 
        means the Info Panel is filled with its properties, and the Preview is triggered.
        Push only works on items that are focused *and* selected.
      Examples:
        selectitems "Test.jpg", , 3;  //select, focus, push
        selectitems "Test.jpg",2:=3;  //(same)

:off: Summary of the latest XYplorer Official Release.

Direct Download: https://www.xyplorer.com/download/xyplorer_full.zip
Download Page: https://www.xyplorer.com/download.php
Release Notes: https://www.xyplorer.com/release.php

Code: Select all

v24.00.0000 - 2023-01-23 18:00
    = NEW OFFICIAL RELEASE. Main developments since last release:
  +++ Virtual Folders. Virtual Folders are folders where you define the content directly 
      in the folder name. You can directly "create" such a folder by typing it into the 
      Address Bar. Nothing is created on disk, it's all in the name. And it's super fast 
      because almost no file system browsing is involved. A revolutionary new concept that 
      adds a number of interesting possibilities to your file management.
  +++ Drop Menu on Hover. Now the menus optionally auto-drop on hovering a component 
      separator. No more clicking. Smooth and comfortable.
  +++ Many Other Improvements. See change log.
