v14.80.0212 - 2015-01-25 14:38
    + Info Panel | Preview: Now 256x256 PNG resources within ICO files are 
      displayed in the preview.
    + Configuration | Thumbnails: Added option "Show film strip overlay on video 
      thumbnails". Tick it to show video thumbnails with dark edges and sprocket 
      holes.
      Had been hard-coded to ON before.
    * Folder Thumbnails: Now the Windows folder setting "Properties / Customize 
      / Folder pictures" is honored. The desired file for the folder thumbnail is 
      read from desktop.ini if it is found within the folder. This available 
      from Windows XP onwards.
    * Tiles Views: Now the icons from non-thumbnailed files are shown as big as 
      possible. Before they were limited to 48x48.

    + New Items on UAC: Finally you can create a new folder or a new file in UAC 
      protected locations in a non-elevated instance of XYplorer. You'll get the 
      usual elevation prompt.
      These are the locations we are talking about:
        %HOMEDRIVE%
        %ALLUSERSPROFILE%*

        %ProgramFiles(x86)%*

v14.80.0207 - 2015-01-21 20:42
    + Portable Devices: Now you can copy and move files and folders from the 
      device to your PC and back using drag and drop, and undo/redo the action.
      Note: The first operation to or from a newly mounted device can take up to 
      30 sec before it actually starts -- currently I'm not sure what's causing 
      this. Windows seems to think really deep about what to do next.
      
      *** IMPORTANT NOTES ***
      - This is in an experimental state! Don't try on files that are important 
        to you.
      - Undo/Redo is not yet reliably working for all cases.
          
    + Portable Devices: Now you can delete files from the device. Undo is NOT 
      possible here.
    > Tip: SC property supports Windows canonical properties as listed here:
      http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd561977%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
      For example, select an image file and run this through the Address Bar:
        echo property('System.Image.HorizontalSize') . 'x' . property('System.Image.VerticalSize');
    ! File Info Tips: Wrong custom tips on items in %user% folder. Fixed.

    + Portable Devices: Now you can inline-rename folders in the tree,

    + Portable Devices: Now you can inline-rename files and folders in the list, 
      and undo/redo the action.
    + Address Bar: The right-click menu of the icon now offers the additional 
      command "Copy Real Path" if the displayed path is a special path, e.g. 
      "Desktop\Test". Click it to copy the string 
      "C:\Users\<your user name>\Desktop\Test" to the clipboard.
      On hovering the menu items the Status Bar now shows the strings to be 
      copied.
    + Address Bar: When it contains a folder the right-click menu of the icon now 
      offers the additional commands "Copy Item", "Copy Path", and "Shell 
      Context Menu...". The latter will pop the Shell Context Menu as if the 
      file was right-clicked in the folder tree.

    * Portable Devices: Support turned ON again.
    * Something has been added internally that will serve to support the "new" 
      (ahem) file operation interface that's available in Windows since some 
      Vista service pack. You won't see anything yet but feel it: it's there 
      now... It will come of use with Portable Devices, but not only there.

    + SC quickfileview enhanced. Added a parameter to force a hex 
      view. You can control the number of bytes to view.
      Syntax: quickfileview [filename], [codepage], [hexviewbytes]
        hexviewbytes:
         >0:      number of bytes to show in hex view
                  No problem if the file is shorter. Superfluous bytes are 
                  ignored.
          0:      none (no forced hex view)
         -1:      show all bytes of the file in hex view
      Note:
        Hex view is internally limited to a maximum of 1MB of data. Reason: 
        Speed.
      Example:
        quickfileview , , -1; //hex view the current file:
    * Updated the help file.
    ! Find Files | Type Filter: In place of "Photo files" there was just 
      emptiness. Filled.

    + SC exit enhanced: Now you can use it restart XYplorer elevated.
      Name:   Exit
      Action: Exit XYplorer, optionally with restart.
      Syntax: exit [mode]
        mode: 
          sre = restart elevated with saving
          nre = restart elevated without saving
      Example:
        exit "sre"; //restart elevated with saving
      Notes:
        - When you cancel the elevation prompt the previous XYplorer instance is 
          still closed.
        - It is not possible to do the reverse (run an unelevated instance from 
          an elevated one).
    * Portable Devices: Support turned off until 14.90 is released.
    ! Mini Tree: On a locked Mini Tree the current tab changed its location to 
      "This PC" on adding/removing a drive or device (since some days ago). 
      Fixed.
    ! Thumbnails: Video thumbnails sprocket holes were drawn with the wrong 
      color sometimes. Fixed.
    ! Breadcrumb Bar: Selecting a share from a server dropdown did not work 
      because an invalid path was generated. Fixed.
    ! Multi Branch View: Broken since 20141220. Fixed.

      being created. Fixed.

    + File | To Clipboard | Item UNC Path/Name(s): Now this function copies the 
      longish "USB Device Paths" when called for items on a portable device.
      Kind of a hijacked easteregg for nerds.

      view when scrolling a list while creation was going on. Fixed.
