v12.20.0101 - 2013-02-26 17:03
    + Configuration | Controls and More | Drop-down Lists: Added "Select 
      all on focus by key". Untick to keep the Address Bar's (and other 
      dropdown controls) selection state and caret position unchanged 
      when TAB-bed into.
      Before, this had been hard-coded to True (which is also the 
      factory default now), but for 6KN it's better to untick it IMO.
    + 6KN: Now drives are listed with their labels.
    ! 6KN: Did not work correctly for top special folders (e.g. 
      "Desktop"). Fixed.
    ! 6KN: When typing into the edit field of dropdown lists the caret 
      jumped to the last position. OMG. Fixed. 
    ! Shell Context Menu: The status bar help string were partly garbled 
      in Chinese and probably other languages. Attempt to fix.

    * 6KN: Ctrl+Enter now will goto/open (and close the dropdown if is 
      open). Before, when the dropdown was open, it closed the dropdown 
      without action any further action. 6KN now looks like this:

      6 Key Navigation in the Address Bar
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      Always:
        Left:       Move caret to left.
        Right:      On right end (if folder): Append backslash (opens match list).
                    Else: Move caret to right.
        Ctrl+Left:  Move caret to parent folder component.
        Ctrl+Right: Move caret to child folder component.
        Ctrl+Down:  Open/Update match list at caret position.
        Enter:      Go to item or open file (if "Open files from Address Bar" is ticked).
                    Close match list if it is open.
        Ctrl+Enter: Like Enter, but Goto/Open inverted.
      On dropped match list:
        Up:         Move up in match list (to last item if none selected).
        Down:       Move down in match list (to first item if none selected).
        Ctrl+Up:    Close match list (no action).
    * Address Bar: Enlarged the height and minimal width of the 
      droplist. It now can get wider than the edit field.

v12.20.0007 - 2013-02-24 13:16
    + 6KN: Now you can drop down the match list on any caret position, 
      not only when the caret is right after "\". For example:
        C:\Pro grams\XYplorer\
              ^
      Now press Ctrl+Down: The match list will open for C:\Pro*.
    * 6KN: Now after dropping or updating the match list the edit field 
      is set to the part left of the caret, i.e. to the part that the 
      match list matches.
    * 6KN: On filter "Files and Folders" the folders are now sorted 
      apart on top of the files.
    * 6KN: Now you can drop the match list also when the edit field 
      contents are selected.
    + 6KN: Typing a single drive letter into the Address bar will drop 
      the match list for that drive.
    * Address Bar: Now, if "Configuration | Controls and More | 
      Miscellaneous | Open files from Address Bar" is ticked and the 
      Address Bar shows a file, the icon in the Address Bar shows a 
      little overlay to signal that <Enter> will open that file.
    * Address Bar: Now on Ctrl+Enter, a file is handled as if the 
      setting of "Open files from Address Bar" would be inverted: It is 
      opened if "Open files from Address Bar" is OFF, and it is gone to 
      if the setting is ON.
      This changes the behavior added in v12.10.0003.
    + Configuration | Templates | Titlebar template: Now it also 
      supports environment variables.

v12.20.0004 - 2013-02-22 20:31
    + ITT: Added "Parallel Edit" (F11) to menu Edit.
      Lists like this one (and there far worse ones) must be nasty to 
      translate because you can easily lose track of your position:
        Show Icons,Show PlusMinus,Show Lines,Mark Favorites (Icon),Mark 
        Favorites (Bold),Narrow Tree,Rename On Slow Double-Click,Apply 
        Highlighting,Full Row Select,Tree Path Tracing
      Parallel Edit is an attempt to make this easier by offering the 
      following two-column format (Original|--|Translation):
        Show Icons|--|Show Icons
        Show PlusMinus|--|Show PlusMinus
        Show Lines|--|Show Lines
        Mark Favorites (Icon)|--|Mark Favorites (Icon)
        Mark Favorites (Bold)|--|Mark Favorites (Bold)
        Narrow Tree|--|Narrow Tree
        Rename On Slow Double-Click|--|Rename On Slow Double-Click
        Apply Highlighting|--|Apply Highlighting
        Full Row Select|--|Full Row Select
        Tree Path Tracing|--|Tree Path Tracing
      Translate the right column, then click OK.
      Note: The function smartly recognizes ",", ";", and "\n" as list 
      separators. But it is not suitable for all items ("," and ";" can 
      happen also in non-lists). It's really meant for lists and 
      multiline texts.

v12.20.0003 - 2013-02-22 14:01
    + 6 Key Navigation (6KN): Now also drives are supported in the match 
      list, so now you can browse the whole computer by just 6 keys.
      Usage: Move the caret to the left-most position (press Ctrl+Left 
      until no more), then Ctrl+Down will open the drives list. Select a 
      drive by Down / Up, then press Right to add a backslash and move 
      down to the next level (i.e. browse this drive).
      
      6 Key Navigation in the Address Bar
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      Always:
        Left:       Move caret to left.
        Right:      On right end: Append backslash (opens match list).
                    Else:         Move caret to right.
        Ctrl+Left:  Move caret to parent folder component.
        Ctrl+Right: Move caret to child folder component.
        Ctrl+Down:  Open/Update match list at caret position.
      On dropped match list:
        Up:         Move up in match list (to last item if none selected).
        Down:       Move down in match list (to first item if none selected).
        Ctrl+Up:    Close match list (no action).
        Ctrl+Enter: Close match list (no action).
        Enter:      Close match list, go to location or open file.
      
      Note that this must be ticked to enable 6KN: Configuration | 
      Controls and More | Auto-Complete Path Names | Address Bar.
      And Filter should be set to "Files and Folders" or "Folders only".
    > Tip: Delete all contents of the Address Bar to pop the drives list.
    + Configuration | Controls and More | Auto-Complete Path Names: 
      Added dropdown "Filter" where can choose whether the Auto-Complete 
      match list should contain "Folders Only", "Files Only", or 
      "Files and Folders".
    - Removed tweak AutoCompletePathABarFiles. It has been raised to GUI.
    - Removed Configuration | Controls and More | Auto-Complete Path 
      Names | GoTo dialog. This setting is now included in Configuration 
      | Controls and More | Auto-Complete Path Names | Address Bar.
    ! A message claimed that duplicating folders with overlong names did 
      not work ("Copying folders with overlong names is not supported.") 
      and the job was aborted, but actually it would have worked! Fixed: 
      Stupid message removed. You can duplicate folders with overlong 
      names.
    ! Wipe: When wiping folders with overlong names the file count was 
      falsely claimed to be 0 (zero) in the prompt before the wipe. The 
      wiping worked though. Fixed. Now the file count is correct.

  +++ Auto-Complete: Now, when the caret is not at the right end but 
      right after some backslash in the middle of the current edit field 
      path, Ctrl+Down will open the match list for the part left of the 
      caret. Nothing less than integrated breadcrumb navigation.
      For example, in the Address Bar place the caret at the position 
      shown below by pressing Ctrl+Left / Ctrl+Right to jump between 
      path components:
        C:\Programs\ XYplorer\
                    ^
      Now press Ctrl+Down: The match list will open for C:\Programs\!
      Notes:
      - When the match list is already open, you can renew its contents 
        (= browse another folder) without first closing it. Slick!
      - So, now you can browse the complete file system of a whole drive 
        using just 5 keys (Ctrl and the 4 arrow keys) in the Address 
        Bar. Revolution! It's really fast when you get into the groove.
      - Let's call it 5KN (5 Key Navigation). Well, 6KN since you need 
        the Enter key to actually browse to a location.
    + Auto-Complete: Now you can open the auto-complete match list (for 
      the whole path, regardless of caret position) by mousedown on the 
      icon.
    * Auto-Complete: Now if the item in the edit field is a file, then 
      the dropped match list will show the contents of the file's 
      folder. Else, it would only contain the file itself, which would 
      be useless.
    * Auto-Complete: Right key will drop the auto-complete match list if 
      caret it at right-most end of an unselected edit field and the 
      last character is a backslash.

      enabled. Fixed.
    ! Configuration | Tags | Copy tags on backup operations: Well, it 
      did not work. Fixed.

      wildcard. Fix #2.

    + Auto-Complete: Now, when the auto-complete match list is dropped 
      down and the caret in the Edit field is at the right-most 
      position, then pressing the "Right" arrow key will append a "\" to 
      the contents of the edit field, which then will trigger a new 
      match list. For many international keyboards this is much easier 
      than typing "\".
    ! MLS: With some languages, switching back and forth between the 
      language and English scrambled the main menu. Fixed.
