v10.30.0002 - 2011-09-20 20:37
  +++ Added Wipe, a method to delete files beyond recovery (at least by 
      conventional software-based forensic tools). This sort of deletion 
      is also known as Shred, Erase, Secure Delete, Nuke, etc.
      XYplorer's Wipe doesn't perform paranoid stuff like multiple passes 
      or random patterns, because instead of increasing security this is 
      just stressing your hardware. The following steps should be enough 
      to destroy a file permanently:
        1. Reset file attributes.
        2. Overwrite file with zeros (single pass).
        3. Set file size to zero.
        4. Rename file.
        5. Reset file dates.
        6. Delete file.
      You can trigger Wipe in three ways:
      - First, there is a normal menu command: File | File Special | 
        Delete (Wipe).
      - Second, there is the Nuke toolbar button which has configurable 
        properties in its right-click menu. Tick "Wiping Beyond 
        Recovery" to make the Nuke button a very dangerous tool.
      - Third, there is a Miscellaneous command Nuke (#1054) which can 
        be assigned a keyboard shortcut and acts the same as if the Nuke 
        toolbar button is pressed.
      Notes:  
      - Wipe supports overlong filenames (> 260 chars).
      - Wipe does NOT support files > 2GB.
      - You can also wipe whole folders. All files found within are 
        individually wiped. Then the folders are removed.
      - Toolbar | Nuke: When "Wiping Beyond Recovery" is ON, then "To 
        Recycler" is automatically disabled. Obviously the two cannot 
        coexist.
      - Take care: There is no undo for wipe. :)
      - For some background info see 
        http://www.springerlink.com/content/408263ql11460147/
    ! Custom Copy: Drag-dropping stuff from 7Zip did not work with the 
      progress dialog shown (because the temporary files are deleted too 
      early then). A fix doesn't seem possible so I added a work-around: 
      No Custom Copy (but Shell copy instead) when drag-dropping items 
      from 7Zip archives.
      Notes:
      - Background processing will also screw drops from 7Zip but this 
        is handled anyway -- unless you enabled the tweak 
        BJAllowDropFromOutside.
      - WinZip, RAR, or IZArc have no such problems but cannot be 
        distinguished from 7Zip programmatically, so this 7Zip-caused 
        work-around affects all of them.
      - Personal note from developer: 7Zip caused me a lot of sweat in 
        the recent years because it just not behaves right and I always 
        have to write circles around it. I wished people would stop 
        using it.

v10.20.0013 - 2011-09-17 11:07
    + Auto-Rotate: Added Auto-Rotate to Image Preview, Full Screen 
      Preview, Thumbnails, and Mouse Down Blow Up.
      Digital Cameras with orientation sensors allow auto-rotation of 
      portrait images by reflecting the positioning of the camera with 
      respect to the ground in the picture's EXIF data. So, the Auto-
      Rotate feature works only with picture files that contain EXIF 
      data, usually JPEGs and TIFFs (extensions: jpg, jpeg, tif, tiff).
      To enable Auto-Rotate for the Image Preview, its Mouse Down Blow 
      Up, and the Full Screen Preview, tick Configuration | Preview | 
      Auto-rotate preview.
      To enable Auto-Rotate for the Thumbnails and their Mouse Down Blow 
      Up, tick Configuration | Thumbnails | Auto-rotate thumbnails.
      Tip: You can as well toggle Auto-Rotate for the Image Preview in 
      the orange button dropdown menu on the Preview panel.    
    * Configuration | File Operations | No progress dialog on intra-
      volume moves: The setting now also controls whether the Summary 
      Report is shown.
    ! Info Panel | Report: Various Reports did not work anymore after 
      the ESC key had been pressed. The bug emerged around 20110616. 
      Fixed.
    * Updated the help file.

v10.20.0011 - 2011-09-13 10:44
    + SC run enhanced: Added parameter "show".
      Syntax: run command, [directory], [wait=0], [show=1]
        [show]:    
          0 = Hides the window.
          1 = [Default] Activates and displays a window.
          2 = Activates the window and displays it as a minimized window.
          3 = Activates the window and displays it as a maximized window.
      Examples:
        ::run "notepad <xypath>\startup.ini", , , 0;  //hidden
        ::run "notepad <xypath>\startup.ini", , , 1;  //normal
        ::run "notepad <xypath>\startup.ini", , , 2;  //minimized
        ::run "notepad <xypath>\startup.ini", , , 3;  //maximized
      Note:
        It depends on the called application whether it honors the show 
        parameter. Some ignore it.
    * SC attrstamp: Now the attr argument is case-insensitive. Both 
      lines work identically:
        attrstamp("r", 3);  //toggle readonly in selected items
        attrstamp("R", 3);  //toggle readonly in selected items
    ! Drop Context Menu: "Create Folder(s) Here" and "Create Branch(es) 
      Here" both acquired two bugs recently.
      - They renamed the top folder on collision. This was not the 
        original behavior of the commands.
      - They would not process multiple selected items at once anymore.
      Both fixed.

v10.20.0008 - 2011-09-12 15:54
    + Configuration | Thumbnails: Added configurable multi-line 
      captions. Under "Number of caption lines" you can customize the 
      number of caption lines shown. This setting affects Thumbnails and 
      Large Icons views.
      Notes:
      - Captions without spaces don't wrap around the lines currently. 
        I'm still tring to understand what's causing this.
      - The Spot function does not work very well together with multi-
        line captions. I don't think this can be improved easily.
    + Toolbar: Added button "Enable Background Processing". IMO this 
      button is more useful than the "Queue File Operations" button, the 
      latter being more of a set-and-forget setting.
    ! Custom Copy: Drag and drop to another tab while foregrounding the 
      target tab by hovering it could lead to undesired results since 
      the last BETA version (v10.20.0005). Fixed.
    ! Custom Move: Did not suppress the progress dialog on intra-volume 
      moves triggered by paste from clipboard.
    ! List Management: The Browse button did not work as expected on 
      items with a caption. Fixed.
    ! Catalog | Insert as new category here | Favorite Folders: Did 
      break at the first "-" item (=horizontal menu line). Fixed.

v10.20.0005 - 2011-09-07 16:23
  +++ Configuration | File Operations: Added option "For all move 
      operations". Tick it (and also "Use Custom Copy") to use Custom 
      Copy for move operations instead of the standard Windows Shell 
      move. This means you now have Custom Move, a fully configurable 
      move operation with all goodies that Custom Copy has to offer.
      
      Intra-Volume Moves vs Cross-Volume Moves
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      Custom Move comprises intra-volume and cross-volume moves. Since 
      intra-volume moves are just changes in the volume's Master File 
      Table (MFT) and do not involve any copying of bytes, they are very 
      fast and notably will ignore some of the configuration options, 
      namely:
      - Verification    (not applicable/necessary: no bytes are copied)
      - Safe overwrite  (not applicable/necessary: no bytes are copied)
      - Remove read-only attribute (unlikely to be useful with moves)
      - Preserve all item dates (not necessary: they are preserved anyway)
      Note, however, that both intra-volume and cross-volume custom moves
      optionally provide automatic rename-on-collision, which is a 
      wonderful thing for everybody who up to now has wasted his life 
      with the Shell's move implementation.
      On cross-volume moves, each file is first copied and then (after 
      optional verification of the copy's correctness) the source file 
      is deleted. When all files are moved, the source folders are 
      deleted (unless they are not completely empty for whatever 
      reason).
    * Configuration | File Operations: Renamed "Use Custom Copy for all 
      copy operations" to "Use Custom Copy", and added a new checkbox 
      "For all copy operations". This reorganization was necessary to 
      accomplish for the new sister option "For all move operations".
    + Configuration | File Operations: Added option "No progress dialog 
      on intra-volume moves". These moves are extremely fast since no 
      bytes are copied, so a progress is not really necessary. Instead 
      you get a summary feedback in the statusbar (at least on 
      foreground jobs; on background jobs another statusbar message will 
      overwrite it -- but usually you will exclude intra-volume moves 
      from background processing anyway because they are so fast).
      Note that this setting overwrites the setting of "Show progress 
      dialog" in the general Custom Copy configuration. (However, if 
      "Show progress dialog" is off, then unticking "No progress dialog 
      on intra-volume moves" will not make it show, of course.)
    * XYcopy 2.00.0051: Internal changes and fixes.
    + Scripting got a new function.
      Name:   AttrStamp
      Action: Sets the attributes for files or folders.
      Syntax: attrstamp([attr], [mode=1], [itemlist])
        attr:     a = FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE  (32)
                  h = FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN   (2)
                  r = FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY (1)
                  s = FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SYSTEM   (4)
                  They can be combined in any order, e.g. "rah".
        mode:     0=get, 1=set [Default], 2=replace, 3=toggle, 4=remove
        itemlist: |-separated list of items (full path) to attrstamp;
                  if empty then current list selections are attrstamped.
        return:   Old attributes of the last processed item.
      Examples:      
        attrstamp("r");     //set readonly to selected items
        attrstamp("rh");    //set readonly and hidden to selected items
        attrstamp("r", 2);  //set readonly to selected items (any 
                              other existing attributes are removed)
        attrstamp("r", 3);  //toggle readonly in selected items
        attrstamp("r", 4);  //remove readonly from selected items
        attrstamp("r", , "E:\Test\x"); //set readonly to "E:\Test\x"
      If no attributes are passed it just returns the old attributes 
      of the last processed item. The return value is made from summing 
      up the attributes bit values. e.g.:
        text attrstamp();   //e.g. 5 = 1+4 (readonly and system)

v10.20.0002 - 2011-09-01 10:50
    + Configuration | Extended: Added option "Single click on icon opens 
      items in list". Tick it to open list items by a left button single 
      click on their icon. It will trigger the same action as if you 
      double-clicked the item. The action is triggered on MouseUp.
      Note: In Thumbnails view the new Single Click Open works only if 
      Mouse Down Blow Up (On left mouse down) is OFF, else both features 
      would conflict.
    ! Properties tab: The new Compressed Size ("Compress.") display 
      crashed on compressed files > 2 GB. And the cluster count for 
      files smaller than the size of one cluster was wrongly shown as 
      "0" where it should be "1". Both fixed.

v10.20.0001 - 2011-08-31 19:06
    + Custom Copy: Now it supports Undo.
      Note: Undo/Redo here works exactly as with normal shell copy. It's 
      meant as a last resort safety belt and has to be used with a bit 
      of care: Undoing a copy generally means deleting the target(s). It 
      will not magically bring back any overwritten target(s). Also be 
      aware that on mixed results (some files were copied, others not 
      for whatever reasons) Undo will delete ALL targets.
      Note also that Redo does not use Custom Copy and any of its 
      settings but is hardcoded to use a foregrounded call to the 
      CopyFile API for each file, and a foregrounded call to shell copy 
      for each folder.
    * XYcopy 2.00.0049: Internal changes and fixes.
    + The actual size on disk of compressed files is now shown on the 
      Properties tab of the Info Panel (XP or later only!).
      "Space used:" in such cases should now be read as "Space that 
      would be used if the file would not be compressed:" -- but that 
      was a bit too long for the UI.
    + SC gettoken: Now it supports negative indices to reference items 
      from the right end of the list.
        text gettoken("one,two,three,four,five", -1, ","); //five
        text gettoken("one,two,three,four,five", -4, ","); //two
    * Labels: If the back color of a label is white (resp. identical to 
      the window background color) then the icons in the toolbar and the 
      dropdown menu show the text color of label instead. The shape 
      changes from rectangle to square to mark the difference.
    ! Tree: In a locked Tree the current location was un-highlighted 
      after toggle-expanding the current folder under certain 
      conditions. Fixed.
