v11.70.0117 -2012-11-19 20:48
    + ITT: Various improvements including a Sticky Notes section at the 
      bottom (your personal notes are read from and written to a file 
      ITT.txt), and a new menu "Edit" with added keyboard shortcuts.
    + ITT: New menu "Tools" featuring a command to view and edit the 
      ITT.ini file (to check and modify the loaded word lists).
      Here is also a set of new commands that might become handy when 
      you use 3rd party tools for the translation: 
      - Set to "Translated" where the Translation has been Modified
      - Set to "Mostly Translated" where the Translation has been Modified
      - Set to "partially Translated" where the Translation has been Modified
      Note that these commands work on all and only those items in the 
      list that have not been translated yet ("Not Yet Translated").

v11.70.0115 -2012-11-18 16:05
    + ITT: Now you can define up to two word lists that will be used for 
      suggestions. The paths to the word lists have to be stated in the 
      new file ITT.ini which should be located in app data path.
      Example for the contents of ITT.ini:
        [Settings]
        WordList1=WordList-hr.txt
        WordList2=MicrosoftTermCollection-hr_XYstyle.UTF8
      The paths can be relative to app data path.
      The word lists itself should be text files (ASCII, UTF-8, UTF-16) 
      and have the following general format:
        Original|--|Translation
        Original|--|Translation
        Original|--|Translation
      Example for Croatian (FYI, "n5" marks slavic number rules):
        <#> <file;~s>|--|<#> <n5:datoteka;datoteke;datoteka>
        <#> <folder;~s>|--|<#> <n5:mapa;mape;mapa>
        <#> <item;~s>|--|<#> <n5:objekt;objekta;objekata>
      Both WordList1 and WordList2 are internally joined to one big 
      pool. The optional separation in two files is just for your 
      convenience.
      Now when you select an item in the ITT items list, all word list 
      items that are contained in the original of that item will be 
      listed (orange back color) in the suggestions list, order by 
      length: the largest item first (because this is likely to be the 
      most interesting match).
      Now when you click such an orange suggestion, all matching words 
      in the Edit box are replaced by their translation. Upper case 
      is attempted to be preserved.
    * ITT: Slightly reorganized the ITT so that you can see more 
      suggestions and the statusbar is nearer to the Edit field.
    - ITT: Removed this from v11.70.0112 - 2012-11-15 21:08. Too slow 
      and not very useful.
        Now the suggestions also include items with a similarity 
        index of > 0.85 acc. to Ratcliff/Obershelp/Levenshtein.
    + Menu Help: Added toggle "Remove Language on Restart". If ticked 
      then any language is removed from the interface after the next 
      restart. (Technically the key "LanguageFile" in Language.ini is 
      set to "" when the app is closed.) 
    * MLS: Updated to version 7.3. Download update from here:
        http://www.xyplorer.com/download/Language.zip
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0010.
To download the latest BETA version choose a download package: (1) Installer Package, (2) No-Install Package.

v11.70.0113 - 2012-11-17 14:06
    + Menu View | Caches: Added command "Refresh Selected Thumbnails".
    * Custom Copy | Progress Dialog | Pause: Now you are prompted before 
      the process is paused. This prompt alone might often be already 
      all the pause you need, so you need not "really" pause the 
      processing (with the possible disadvantage that processing resumes 
      with processing the current again from start).
    ! Improved word break recognition when renaming files (dbl-click 
      selection, moving cursor with CTRL). This was partly destroyed 
      since v11.70.0102.
    + ITT: Various minor improvements.
    + MLS: Added support for Polish number rules (n7).
    * MLS: Updated to version 7.2. Download update from here:

v11.70.0112 - 2012-11-15 21:08
    + ITT: Now you can upgrade language files to the latest state using 
      the new ITT menu command "Upgrade Language File...". You are 
      prompted to select a reference file ("Reference.lng") which will 
      be used for upgrading the currently loaded language file (e.g. 
      "German.lng").
      The reference file version must match the MLS version of the 
      running XYplorer. In future, matching reference files can be 
      downloaded from http://www.xyplorer.com/language.php.
      After upgrading any new items can be translated in the ITT right-
      away, and the be loaded into the application on closing the ITT.
      !!! NOTE: This being a BETA version, translators should backup 
          their work before upgrading it. It's all thoroughly tested but 
          you never know...
    * MLS: The MLS version now has a major and a minor number, e.g. 
      "7.1". The major numbers of the language file version and the 
      internal MLS version must match else the language cannot be 
      loaded. If only the minor numbers differ, the language file will 
      load but a couple of strings will not be translated.
    + ITT: Now the suggestions also include items with a similarity 
      index of > 0.85 acc. to Ratcliff/Obershelp/Levenshtein.
    + ITT: Now the right-click menu of the main items list offers a 
      traffic light system for tagging the items:
        - Translated                Green
        - Translated, Check Again   Yellow
        - Partially Translated      Red
        - Not Yet Translated        White
    + ITT: New menu command "Untranslate Item" resets the current item 
      to its original untranslated value.
    + ITT: Now pressing ESC in the Edit field will reset any unsaved 
      modifications in the field.
    * Multilingual Support: Updated to version 7.1.
      Download update from here:
        http://www.xyplorer.com/download/Language.zip
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0008.
    + Color Selection Dialog: The Custom Colors ("Add to Custom Colors") 
      are now preserved across calls and across sessions.
    - Removed tweak UnitByte. Conflicted with MLS.

    + MLS and ITT are finished: Green light to the translators!
    * Move Up: In search results the selected items are now moved to the 
      folder above their current location. Before, they were moved to 
      the folder above the search path -- nobody needs this.
      Note: If the selected items are in different locations, the 
      command is disabled.
    * Menu File: Reorganized the "Settings" submenu.
      - Command "Save All Settings" is now called "Save Settings" and 
        moved up to the File menu.
      - Submenu "Settings" is now called "Settings Special".
    * Redesigned MLS so that the original accelerators now appear in the 
      LNG file.
    * Multilingual Support: Updated to version 7.
      Download update from here:
        http://www.xyplorer.com/download/Language.zip
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0007.

      various ways. Fixed.

    + The ITT now displays a warning when your translation is wider 
      than the original and might be too wide to fit the control. The 
      WYSIWYG preview will show you whether or not it actually fits. 
      (Note that sometimes overwidth is okay; e.g. checkboxes in the 
      configuration dialog are of flexible width.)
      The warning is not displayed where width is irrelevant (tooltips, 
      menu captions, etc.).
    + Environment Variables: New XY-only environment variable:
        %osbitness% = OS bitness, e.g. 64 on a 64-bit Windows
    * Multilingual Support: Updated to version 6.

  +++ Interface Translation Tool: Now you can translate virtually all 
      interface text bits in a convenient way.
      Open the ITT using menu Help | Interface Translation Tool.
      At the top of the list you can edit some of the header data. Then 
      the translation begins with the "OK" button. Enjoy playing with it!
      Notes:
      - Original and translation are WYSIWYG-previewed where applicable. 
        Variables are resolved using "Dummy" values, number variables 
        are resolved using a set of test numbers (0, 1, 2, 5, 21).
      - Pressing <enter> in the Edit box (Ctrl+Enter in a multi-line 
        box) will apply the changes in the current item, set it to 
        "translated" state internally, make it green in the text items 
        list, and move on to the next item.
      - Suggestions are given if similar items have already been 
        translated. Click on a suggestion to place its value into the 
        Edit field.
      - If you save the changes they will be immediately applied to the 
        application interface after closing the ITT.
      - Apart from translation you can use this tool to modify the 
        original English, e.g. add helpful remarks to captions or 
        tooltips. In other words, you now have a revolutionary way to 
        personalize the application.
      - Of course, you can as well work directly in the LNG file using 
        any editor. The ITT is just a GUI for this job.
    + MLS: Now the *.LNG file may also be in UTF-8 format (with or 
      without BOM). 
    * Re-changed the UTF-8 terms to their earlier state (v11.70.0106). 
      That was nonsense (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8).
    * Multilingual Support: Updated to version 5.
      Download update from here:
        http://www.xyplorer.com/download/Language.zip
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0005.

Hi,

Since some translators apparently have overlooked my warning and have already started the work, I repeat:

IMPORTANT NOTE TO TRANSLATORS
=============================
Do not start yet with the serious work! This first version is just for
playing. Try something. Look for questions and problems. Give feedback.


I will let you know when I'm ready with my part.

There will be a CAT (Computer Assisted Translation) tool which will make the translation very comfortable. You do not have to edit *.lng manually when the CAT is ready (I hope next week)!

Don

    + MLS: Now the *.LNG file may also be in ASCII format (non-Unicode). 
      For most West-European languages ASCII is okay.
    + MLS: Now Language.ini is first looked for in app data path, then 
      in app path. When the pointer (within Language.ini) to the *.lng 
      file has no full path then its path defaults to the path of 
      Language.ini.
      This cute setup allows me to distribute localized versions right 
      from the installer, while still allowing the user to select other 
      languages (with Language.ini and LNG file then placed in app data 
      path).
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0002.
    * Multilingual Support: Updated to version 2. Added many forgotten 
      strings and changed the structure towards supporting the upcoming 
      CAT (Computer Assisted Translation) tool which will offer a 
      revolutionary way of translating an app from within the app with 
      WYSIWYG preview.
      Download update from here:
        http://www.xyplorer.com/download/Language.zip
    * Tabsets: Tweak TabsetsNoPaneActivation now also prevents 
      activating a *visible* background pane when the pane's tabset is 
      modified by scripting.
        TabsetsNoPaneActivation=1

v11.70.0102 - 2012-10-31 21:06
  +++ Multilingual Support: First version for playing around.
    + DEVELOPERS: Now you can run an XYplorer script from an external 
      program using the WM_COPYDATA command with XYplorer's hWnd. 
      - cds.dwData: 4194305 (0x00400001)
      - cds.lpData: The syntax is identical to the one of the command 
        line switch /script=<script resource>, so you can either pass 
        the path to a script file (commonly called *.xys), or pass the 
        script directly (must be preceded by ::).
      Note that this feature is not available in the Home Edition 
      (because it does not support scripting).
    + Edit boxes: Now, Ctrl+Del deletes the next word in 
      all Edit controls (but only if there isn't anything selected). 
      Note:
      - In the Address Bar, the Go To dialog, and the Find Files 
        Location DropDown, word delimiters are:
        \:?|
      - Elsewhere (including all rename boxes), word delimiters are:
        .:,; _-~(){}[]<>|/\^°*?!§$%&=+#"'
    % Edit boxes: Selection by double-click algorithm improved. Before, 
      too many characters were selected under certain circumstances.
    + Tabsets: Added tweak TabsetsNoPaneActivation to avoid activating 
      an invisible pane when the pane's tabset is modified by scripting.
        TabsetsNoPaneActivation=1
    - Removed some tweaks that lost their use due to Multilingual Support:
      - FolderEmpty
      - TermThisHour
      - TermToday
      - TermYesterday
    ! Move Here to New Subfolder (and similar dialogs): Layout broken 
      under certain conditions. Fixed.
    ! Tree: Type Ahead Find did not work correctly with larger patterns 
      anymore. Fixed.
    ! Fixed some minor and very rare drawing glitches related to tabs 
      and tabsets.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0000.

Re: Here's the new BETA

Post by admin »

Change Log for the latest XYplorer BETA version:

Code: Select all

v11.70.0010 - 2012-10-16 10:35
    * Mouse Down Blow Up: Now blow ups are not longer covered or limited 
      by the taskbar but always float above it.
To download the latest BETA version choose a download package: (1) Installer Package, (2) No-Install Package.

:!: 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 | Backup your Application Data Folder)
before running a new BETA version. This will also help in fixing any fresh bugs.
