      provides an intuitive all-in-one interface to adding, editing, and 
      viewing the tags.

      regarding the target location. Makes it very easy to mirror copy 
      individual items from/to deeply nested locations.
  +++ Smart Dropdown Buttons. Simply paste a plain list of documents, 
      executables, and folders into a User Button and enjoy the power of 
      type-aware default actions right from the toolbar.

    * Move/Copy Here with Path; Paste Here with Path: Now they support 
      special paths like Desktop or <User> as drop/paste target, i.e. 
      they correctly display the target path choices as special paths as 
      well.

v10.90.0416 - 2012-04-24 11:56
    * Move/Copy Here with Path: Improved the preselection smartness. 
      Now, as preselection, the full source path is recreated in the 
      target by default if no smaller path already exists. And, if only 
      one of the auto-generated target paths exists this one is always 
      preselected.
      That way now, both times using "Copy Here with Path" with preselected 
      defaults, you can copy a file to any folder (incl. drive root), 
      then at any point in future take that target file and copy it back 
      dropping/pasting it to the original root drive, and it will end up 
      in its original location. Extremely handy.
      Additionally it's taken care now that the source path is never 
      offered as target path (this could happen when you dropped into a 
      parent folder of the source). It can be safely assumed that you 
      don't want to make an in-place copy when you use the "Copy Here 
      with Path" command.
    ! Tab History: A couple of bugs in connection with History Per Tab, 
      Quick Name Search, and Branch View could get the tabwise history 
      confused when switching tabs. Fixed.

    * Quick Name Search: Now the search results of a Quick Name Search 
      are cached just like the results of a normal File Find if search 
      results caching is enabled.
      FYI, in v8.20.0021 - 2009-08-25 15:25 QNS was excluded from search 
      results caching for reasons that don't apply anymore.
    - Removed this change from v10.90.0412 - 2012-04-21 14:00:
      Quick Name Search: Now the search results of a QNS are always 
      displayed in the current tab, irrespective of "Configuration | 
      Find Files | Show search results in".

    * Menu Edit: Rearranged the search related commands, and shuffled 
      the factory default keyboard shortcuts a bit:
        Find Files...	Ctrl+F
        Find Now
        Repeat Last Search
        Search Templates...	Ctrl+F9
        -
        Quick Name Search...	F3
        Repeat Last Quick Name Search	Shift+F3
        Show All Items In Branch	Ctrl+F3
      The fabulous new Quick Name Search now has a quick default 
      shortcut.

    + Menu Edit: Added command "Repeat Last Quick Name Search". It 
      repeats the last Quick Name Search (if any) in the current 
      location. The default keyboard shortcut is Ctrl+Alt+F3.
    * Quick Name Search: Now the new "Quick Name Search" icon is used 
      everywhere in the app (Address Bar, Tabs, Catalog, Favorites, 
      etc.) as opposed to the shell's standard search icon for normal 
      searches.
    * Quick Name Search: Now the search results of a QNS are always 
      displayed in the current tab, irrespective of "Configuration | 
      Find Files | Show search results in".
      Also added some tips to the dialog.
    % Move/Copy Here with Path: Improved the preselection smartness, and 
      widened the dialog.

v10.90.0411 - 2012-04-20 20:41
    + Drag And Drop Context Menu: Added commands "Move Here with 
      Path..." and "Copy Here with Path..." by which you can move/copy 
      items together with parts of their path. In other words, the 
      copies will end up somewhere deeper below the actual drop target 
      depending on your choice.
      The dialog offers you a complete set of path choices auto-
      generated from the drop target and the source item(s). Any non-
      existing subpaths will be silently created in the target; non-
      existing paths they are marked by the "New Folder" icon in the 
      dialog (unless the target is a network location, where the 
      standard icon is shown for better performance).
      Note that in the dialog there is some smartness at work: The path 
      which XYplorer thinks you are likely to choose is preselected. 
      E.g., if you drag directly onto a drive root (or network share), 
      the path that will mirror your source path is preselected. Of 
      course, you can change the preselection, and even type in a 
      different path from the ones offered in the dropdown (it has to be 
      located below the drop target though).      
      These commands come in very handy when restoring or updating 
      individual files from one deeply nested place to another one.
    + Menu Edit | Paste Special: Added command "Paste Here with 
      Path...". Same functionality as "Move/Copy Here with Path...". 
      Killer feature.

v10.90.0407 - 2012-04-19 12:16
  +++ Added Quick Name Search, a very simple interface to finding files 
      by their name. The new command "Quick Name Search..." is found at 
      the bottom of menu Edit.
      The obvious idea is to offer an ultra-smooth access to the most 
      common find task: the search by filename. No more need to open the 
      Info Panel, select the Find Files tab, reset any previous filters, 
      enter a pattern, and press Find Now. Instead you completely bypass 
      the Find Files tab leaving its current settings unused and 
      unchanged.
      Notes:
      - Quick Name Searches are by default recursive. The "/r" switch is 
        auto-appended to the pattern, unless the pattern already 
        features any switch.
      - Quick Name Searches always search the current location (as shown 
        in the Title Bar, the Address Bar, and in the unlocked Tree).
      - The last 64 patterns are stored in an MRU list. They are 
        remembered across sessions if "Configuration | Startup & Exit | 
        Remember most-recently-used lists" is ticked and "Find Files 
        Patterns and Locations" is ticked in the Apply list.
        The MRU list can be edited in List Management.
      - Quick Name Searches are displayed in the Address Bar, but not 
        added to the Address Bar MRU (the dropdown list).      
      - Quick Name Search also supports more complex patterns like 
        Boolean terms, RegExp, and Multi Field Search. Simply everything 
        that's supported in the Address Bar right of the "?", the marker 
        for searches through the Address Bar.
      - The term and concept of "Quick Name Search" (also called "Quick 
        Search") already exists since long in XYplorer, but only it got 
        its own interface.
      - The default keyboard shortcut is Alt+F3.
    + Toolbar: Added button "Quick Name Search". Credits for the icon go 
      to http://www.icojam.com/ (icojoy iconset).
    * Info Panel | Tags: Slightly changed the Keyboard Tricks:
        Label:    Press <Enter> to apply only the Label.
        Tags:     Press <Enter> to apply only the Tags.
        Comment:  Press <Ctrl+Enter> to apply only the Comment.

  +++ Info Panel: Added tab "Tags", a noob-pleasing UI for adding and 
      editing Tags (Labels, Tags, Comments) to/of the items currently 
      selected in the List.
      Notes:
      - The three fields are preset to the Labels, Tags, Comments of the 
        current item (which usually is the focused item).
      - Apply means that *all* tags (Labels, Tags, Comments) shown in 
        the Tags tab are applied to *all* currently selected items, so 
        after Apply all selected items have identical Labels, Tags, and 
        Comments.
      - The Reset button will reset the three fields to the current 
        item's tags.
      Keyboard Tricks:
        Label:    Press <Enter> to apply.
        Tags:     Press <Enter> to apply.
        Comment:  Press <Ctrl+Enter> to apply.      
    + Menu Favorites: Added command "Edit Tags by List...". Use it to 
      edit the tags of all selected items via a checkbox tag list. The 
      checkboxes are pre-ticked based on the tags of the current item.
      The same command has also been added to the right-click menu of 
      the Tags column in Details view. (Needs a tick at Configuration | 
      Tags | Popup by tag columns right-click).

    + Scripting: The multi-script shorthand trick introduced in 
      v9.60.0013 - 2010-10-18 15:51 now honors the type of the listed 
      items. It will *open* documents, *run* executables, and *goto* 
      folders. Before it would only goto items.
      Examples:
        C:\                       = goto  C:\                    
        C:\Windows                = goto  C:\Windows             
        %winsysdir%\Calc.exe      = run   %winsysdir%\Calc.exe
        %winsysdir%\setup.bmp     = open  %winsysdir%\setup.bmp
      Usage Tip: The multi-script shorthand trick comes extremely handy 
      in the left and right click events of User Buttons. Simply paste a 
      plain list of documents, executables, and folders (in any mix and 
      order), and enjoy the power of type-aware default actions right 
      from the toolbar. For example:
        C:\
        %windir%
        <xypath>
        -
        %winsysdir%\Calc.exe
        %winsysdir%\setup.bmp
        <xydata>\XYplorer.ini
        <xy>
    * List | Item Context Menu: Renamed "Junction Target" in the context 
      menu of junctions to "Junction".
    + List | Item Context Menu | Junction: Added command "Delete 
      Junction...". This will, after a safety prompt, delete the 
      junction point without deleting the contents of the junction 
      target folder.
      FYI, under XP the normal shell delete will as well delete 
      the contents of the target folder.
    * Wipe: The "Wipe Now?" safety prompt from now on defaults to the 
      Cancel button. It's safer.
