v16.80.0015 - 2016-05-30 14:33
    + Added tweak to support dropping on RAR archives via the RAR command line 
      interface. Set the tweak to 1 if the normal shell drop fails (still 
      unclear why it fails on RAR archives.)
        DropOnRarSpecial=1
      This will add the dropped files to the dropped-on RAR archive without 
      their path, or with a path relative to the archive (switches " a -ep1 ").
    - Removed tweak NoUnicodeDrop from v7.00.0023 - 2008-04-11 14:05. Not needed 
      anymore.
    ! SC runret: Issue on Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7. Fix attempt #4.
    ! Portable Devices: Stopped being shown since v16.80.0007. Fixed.

    * Status Bar: Increased height by 2 pixels. Fits the more airy style 
      introduced in v16.00.0205. And makes space for the upcoming Live Filter 
      Box. :)

v16.80.0011 - 2016-05-28 14:04
    + SC runret enhanced: Added optional "flags" argument.
      Syntax: runret(command, [directory], [flags])
        flags: (bit field)
          1 = Return a hex dump of the raw data in the pipe.
      Example:
        text runret("cmd /c dir", , 1);
    ! Freeze Info and Preview: Frozen IP Preview stopped when a file was opened. 
      Fixed.

v16.80.0010 - 2016-05-27 22:13
    * Folder Size Caching: Folders that would not be read from cache now are 
      also not written to cache. Keeps the cache smaller. Clear your current 
      cache to benefit from this.
    * Folder Size Caching: Folder with "0 bytes" are generally not cached. From 
      now on, however, folders with "0 bytes" *will* be cached if they contain 
      256 or more items. Otherwise the performance impact would be too notable.
    ! Folder Sizes: When changing locations while folder size calculation was 
      still in progress the folder sizes wouldn't be calculated in the new 
      location. Fixed.
    + Help | Various Information: Added two lines about the OEM code page. For 
      example in Germany:
        Default OEM code page:    850   (OEM - Multilingual Lateinisch I)
        Active OEM Code Page:     850   (OEM - Multilingual Lateinisch I)      
    ! SC runret: Issue with non-Western OEM code pages. Fix attempt.

v16.80.0009 - 2016-05-27 11:56
    * Startup: Auto-Refresh now is activated only after startup if fully 
      completed. This should fix some rare startup issues with some users.
    * Folder Size Caching: Now removable drives are excluded from Folder Size 
      Caching. The variable drive letters don't play well with the current way 
      of caching.
    * Custom Copy | Collision Prompt: Enlarged the OK button to give it the same 
      optical weight and hit area as the new action buttons.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0086.
    ! Find Files: Recursive search results were shown level-indented since 
      20160510 (if "Configuration | Find Files & Branch View | Branch View | 
      Level-indent" was enabled). Fixed.

    ! Scripting: Since v16.80.0006 spaces were not trimmed in certain contexts. 
      For example:
        global $a =    "a"; text $a;
      returned <    "a"> instead of <a>. Fixed.
    ! Find Files: Search for content in files triggered OnChange event in apps.

v16.80.0006 - 2016-05-25 13:35
    ! Scripting: The string concatenation operator (.) had a fat too low 
      precedence that wasn't expected when you were coming from PHP (from where 
      this operator has been copied). Fixed.
      NEW order of precedence:
        -------------------------------------------
        ++ --         Math: Increment, Decrement
        ! Not         Boolean: NOT
        + -           Math: Unary Plus, Unary Minus
        * /           Math: Multiply, Divide
        %             Math: Modulo
        \             Math: Integer division
        + -           Math: Add, Subtract
        .             String concatenator
        < <= > >= == !=             Comparison
        Like LikeI UnLike UnLikeI   Comparison
        &&            Boolean: AND
        ||            Boolean: OR
        And           Boolean: AND
        Xor           Boolean: XOR
        Or            Boolean: OR
        ? :           Ternary
          <<< OLD POSITION: .             String concatenator >>>
        =             Set
        -------------------------------------------
      Example 1:
        echo "check" == "che" . "ck"; //"1" (was "0ck" before the fix!)
      Example 2:          
        echo "Tr" . "ue" or "Fa" . "lse"; //"1" (was "Tr1lse" before the fix!)
      Example 3:
        // FYI, this did NOT change compared to earlier versions:
        echo 1 + 2 . 3 + 4; // (1 + 2) . (3 + 4) = "37"
    > NOTE: Of course, the above fix can break old scripts! However, I think 
      it's not very likely in real world since I would find it quite unusual that 
      a scripter relied on a low precedence of the string concatenator. In all 
      languages I have ever seen it has a very high precedence.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0085.

v16.80.0005 - 2016-05-24 20:10
    + Paste and Go: Now paths with *forward* slashes are supported as well.
    + SC obfuscate: Now also the Catalog is obfuscated.
    * Folder Size Caching: From now on also folders cached as "0 bytes" will 
      always be re-calculated when showing the folder sizes.
    * Folder Size Caching: Additionally any subfolders containing more than 
      *256* items (recursively) are auto-added to the cache. Was *100* items 
      before.
    * Toolbar | Back, Forward, Recent Locations: Now paths are shown unslashed 
      in the dropdown menu.
    - Removed this little know trick from v9.40.0102 - 2010-08-13 17:32:
        Now you can force opening a folder in the other pane (inactive 
        pane) by holding Ctrl+Shift while triggering the open.

v16.80.0004 - 2016-05-23 20:10
  +++ Custom Copy: Now the collision prompt features an extra button for 
      "Overwrite". Just like the "Skip" button you can use it for quick one-time 
      actions without changing the preset of the action dropdown (which is 
      triggered by the "OK" button).
      So you now have two fixed buttons for the most common actions, "Overwrite" 
      and "Skip", and soft button ("OK") whose function you can modify via the 
      dropdown.
      The whole dialog has been redesigned somewhat to bring all elements into a 
      smooth constellation.
    * Folder Size Caching: From now on folders cached as "Empty" will always be 
      re-calculated when showing the folder sizes. If they are still empty the 
      costs for this are minimal, and if they are not empty anymore it's really 
      good to know. So when you see "Empty" you can pretty much rely on it since 
      the information is freshly harvested.
    * Folder Size Caching: From now when freshly calculating a folder size not 
      only this folder's size but also the sizes of its direct child folders are 
      auto-added to the cache. This allows for quickly going down to the next 
      level, and propagates fresh values one level down when refreshing folder 
      sizes.
      Additionally any subfolders containing more than 100 items (recursively) 
      are auto-added to the cache.
    % Network: Deleting single folders in network locations should be faster 
      now.
    % More new icons for some dialogs.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0084.

    % New icons for some dialogs.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0083.
    * Floating Preview: Now when the previewed file is deleted and no other file 
      is immediately selected the FP is completely cleared. Before, the preview 
      of the deleted file was still shown (which was obviously confusing).
    ! Floating Preview: The FP window gained undesired focus (foregrounding) 
      after deleting a previewed file in list. Fixed.

    % Network: Creating new folders in network locations should be faster now 
      (if this is NOT ticked: Configuration | Refresh, Icons, History | 
      Auto-Refresh | Include network locations).
    ! Configuration | Refresh, Icons, History | Auto-Refresh | Include network 
      locations: If not ticked there was still refreshing of the tree happening 
      under certain conditions. Fixed. Should remove some delays from network 
      browsing.

v16.80.0001 - 2016-05-20 18:54
    + SC folderreport enhanced: New named argument for parameter "type":
        type:
          tcsv: Tree of items (folders and files) with basic data
                in CSV format: Raw Bytes;Modified Date[;Version]
                This type does not support a template.
      Note:
        This type generates a report similar to "treeitems" but is much faster 
        since it does not support a custom template (which costs a lot of extra 
        flops).
      Example:
        text folderreport("tcsv", "r", , "r");
      Output Example:

    % SC folderreport: Type "treeitems" got much faster, notable especially on 
      large reports.
    % Report "Tree Structure Only" got much faster, notable especially on large 
      reports.
    * Info Panel | Report: Renamed "Tree structure only" to "Tree structure".
  *** Info Panel | Report | Tree structure: Experimentally changed the output to 
      include files and basic file data. The report now is the same as would be 
      generated by folderreport("tcsv").
    * Report: Modified the layout of tree-shaped reports for better readability.
    * Info Panel | Raw View: Replaced substitution character (for non-displayed 
      low ASCII chars) "mid dot" character by normal dot. The mid dot is no good 
      on some code pages, and it does not play easily with HTML and other ASCII 
      contexts.
    * Info Panel | Raw View: Now many more lower ASCII (< ord 32) are shown 
      unsubstituted.
    ! File | Properties (Alt+Enter): Did not work on special folders in the 
      Tree, e.g. "Donald\Pictures". Fixed.
    ! File | Properties (Alt+Enter): Did not work on "C:\Users\<username>" and 
      worked incorrectly on "C:\Users\<username>\Desktop". Fixed.
