    ! Floating Preview: The font preview was hardly readable in Dark Mode. 
      Fixed.
      Note: The Floating Preview font preview does not work yet in the 64-bit 
      Preview, hence fonts here are only previewed using 32-bit handlers in the 
      Floating Preview. In the Preview tab XY's native font preview is used so 
      this is not affected at all.
    ! 64-bit Preview: Alignment issues with Word documents. Fixed.

    + 64-bit Preview: Now you can tweak XY so that the 64-bit Preview is used 
      right away:
        Preview64=1
      Note that no fallback to 32-bit is implemented so if the 64-bit Preview 
      fails you get nothing.

    + SC get got a new named argument "bitness". Use it to determine the bitness 
      (32 or 64) of a binary file (typically EXE or DLL). On failure it returns 0.
      Syntax: get("bitness", [file])
      Examples:
        echo get("bitness");  //bitness of the selected file
        echo get("bitness", "E:\XY\XYplorer\Preview64.exe");  //64
      Remarks:
        Quite easy now to make a Custom Column showing these values for EXE and 
        DLL files. For background info google "PE Format".

    + Preview: Now supports preview of EML files (also the 32-bit preview!).
      Note that you have to untick EML in "Configuration | Preview | Previewed 
      Formats | Text Files" and tick it in "Configuration | Preview | Previewed 
      Formats | Office Files" else you just get a raw textual preview.
    * 64-bit Preview: Now the preview handler based previews (typically Office 
      files, PDF, EML) prioritize the 32-bit handlers, and only on failure fall 
      back to the 64-bit handlers. That way some weirdnesses under certain 
      conditions with Office preview handlers can be avoided as much as 
      possible.
      Because of this logic no UI configuration for the new feature is 
      necessary for now. It just works.
    ! 64-bit Preview: Tried to fix a focus steal issue. Shot in the dark.

    + 64-bit Preview: Almost finished.
      - Now you can live-resize the preview area.
      - No more small window with Close button.
      - There still is a small loss-of-focus-flicker while the preview is 
        loaded. One day I might find a way to remove that.
      - There will be two settings in configuration later:
          - Use 64-bit preview handlers for Preview
          - Fall back to preview handlers of the other bitness
        Currently both are internally set to ON for testing.
        The fall back from 64 to 32 however does not work yet.
      - The file Preview64.exe is now part of the install/non-install package.
      - Still needs an icon.
    ! 64-bit Preview: Error in Floating / Full Screen Preview. Fixed.
    ! MLS: Some labels in the Find Files tab did not work alright in Russian 
      (and probably other languages based on a codepage) in certain contexts. 
      Fixed.
