v9.90.1120 - 2011-07-01 13:29
    * Backup / Custom Copy Configuration | "Rename folders on 
      collision". From now on, folders that are copied in-place (copied 
      onto themselves) are unconditionally auto-renamed (incremental 
      suffix) even if this option is not ticked. Everything else would 
      be nonsense.
    * Backup / Custom Copy: From now on, files that are copied in-place 
      (copied onto themselves) are unconditionally auto-renamed 
      (incremental suffix) IF the setting for "On name collisions" is 
      "Ask" or "Overwrite if newer" or "Overwrite".
      Before, you got a stupid overwrite dialog asking whether you want 
      to overwrite a file with itself.
    * XYcopy 2.00.0037: Internal changes and fixes.

To download the latest BETA version choose a download package: (1) Installer Package, (2) Portable Package.

Note that BETA versions are work in progress and might contain fresh bugs. You have been warned.

    + Toolbar: Added button "Use Custom Copy". Gives you a handy toggle 
      and status feedback for Custom Copy. The context menu is the same 
      as the "Queue File Operations" button's.
    * Progress Dialog: Caption is now only updated when percentage 
      changes. Less distracting overkill action in the UI.
    * XYcopy 2.00.0036: Internal changes and fixes.

    + Custom Copy: Now Rich Copy is supported. In other words, all Rich 
      Copy operations are now handled by Custom Copy (if Custom Copy is 
      enabled).
    + Custom Copy: Now all Copy Here operations are supported. FYI, 
      those operations are found in menu File | Duplicate and in the 
      right-button drop context menu.    
    + Backup / Custom Copy Configuration: Added option "Log to default 
      location". If checked (and "Create log file" is enabled) then the 
      factory default locations are used for the log file location and 
      name. If unchecked you are prompted for a name when triggering the 
      copy operation.
      The factory defaults are:
        Backup:      <xydata>\Log\Backup_<date yyyy-mm-dd_hh-nn-ss>.txt
        Custom Copy: <xydata>\Log\CustomCopy_<date yyyy-mm-dd_hh-nn-ss>.txt
      The defaults can be changed by tweaking the INI file (see 
      v9.90.1114).
    * XYcopy 2.00.0035: Internal changes and fixes.
    ! Error "Subscript out of range" on start up under certain 
      conditions since v9.90.1113. Fixed.

v9.90.1114 - 2011-06-29 10:05
    + Tweaks to streamline logging (option "Create Log File") of Backup 
      and Custom Copy operations by defining templates for the log file 
      location and name.
      You have three possibilities for each tweak:
      - Path/File name: Log file is created as defined.
      - File name only: Log file is created in the target location with 
        the defined name.
      - Nothing: You will be prompted for a location and name.
      Example for Backup operations:
        [Settings]
        BackupLog=Backup_<date yyyy-mm-dd_hh-nn-ss>.txt
      Example for Custom Copy operations:        
        [CustomCopy1]
        Log=E:\Test\Log\CustomCopy_<date yyyy-mm-dd_hh-nn-ss>.txt
      The date variables are resolved to the current date/time. Note 
      that also other variables and Environment variables are supported.
      The log file path is auto-created if it does not exist yet. Here 
      is another example for a portable log file location:
        [CustomCopy1]
        Log=<xydata>\Log\CustomCopy_<date yyyy-mm-dd_hh-nn-ss>.txt     
      Note that the tweaks are found in different sections in the INI 
      file, [Settings] and [CustomCopy1], and have different key names. 
      This has internal reasons.
    + SC recase enhanced: New named argument for parameter "mode":
        mode:
          sentence: First letter upper case, all others lower case.
      Example:
        text recase("the caMel can't.", "sentence"); //The camel can't.
    + SC recase: Parameter "mode" now works with passing just the first 
      letter, e.g. "s" for "sentence".
    + SC recase enhanced: New named argument for parameter "mode":
        mode:
          removediacritics: Strips accents and the like from letters, 
              e.g. converts "à" to "a" and so on.
      Example:
        text recase("Motörhead", "r"); //Motorhead
    * SCs download and readurl: Tried a different approach to fetch data 
      that might fix a problem with certain code pages. Attempt #2.
    ! Recycle Bin: Now displays names with wide characters (Unicode) 
      correctly.
    ! Recycle Bin: Further improved auto-refresh.
    ! Raw View: Overflow error on doing a raw view of a file of > 2GB. 
      Fixed.

v9.90.1113 - 2011-06-28 15:46
    + Backup / Custom Copy Configuration: Added option "Rename folders 
      on collision". If checked then all copies of folders in your 
      selection are auto-renamed (incremental suffix) on collision. Else 
      overwritten.
      Note that this concerns only the top folders, not any subfolders, 
      of the items selected for the copy. Subfolders are never renamed 
      on a Backup or Custom Copy.
    * Drag and drop right-click menu: Dropped the "(Copy of...)" part in 
      the Copy Here command caption. It does not make sense anymore 
      since with Custom Copy all kind of renaming schemes can take 
      place, even none in the case of copied folders where just the 
      contents are overwritten or rename-copied. Actually it never was 
      very clever in the first place since the actual renaming was 
      conntrolled by the OS locale (e.g. "Kopie von..." in German).
    * SCs download and readurl: Tried a different approach to fetch data 
      that might fix a problem with certain code pages.
    * Configuration | Extended | Use sorted column: Added Label, Tags, 
      and Comment column. So now when checked: Name, Ext, Type, Path, 
      Label, Tags, or Comment column are used when sorted. When 
      unchecked always the Name column is used.
    * XYcopy 2.00.0032: Internal changes and fixes.

    + Backup / Custom Copy Configuration: Added option "Keep progress 
      dialog open". If checked the dialog stays open after the operation 
      is completed. If unchecked the dialog is auto-closed.
      In the latter case, if "Show summary report" is checked the dialog 
      is auto-closed only after 5 seconds, otherwise it is auto-closed 
      immediately.
    * Backup / Custom Copy: Now HIDDEN files can be overwritten without 
      "Access Denied" error.
    * XYcopy 2.00.0030: Internal changes and fixes.
    ! Tree: In a locked Tree the last location was highlighted (even if 
      it didn't match the current path) after drag and drop to some tree 
      folder. Fixed.

    * Progress Dialog: Titlebar caption reorganized so that more of the 
      important info is seen in the taskbar.
    ! Positioning of dialogs opened from Progress dialog was not always 
      as expected. Fixed.
    ! Backup: On "Overwrite if newer" with verification, when copying 
      was paused during verification then Resume would not start the copy 
      again but skip it because the target file with the new date was 
      now existing. Fixed. Now the newly created target file is deleted 
      on Pause.

    * Backgrounded Progress Dialog: Position back to centered. Better 
      with dual monitor setups.
    * XYcopy 2.00.0024: Internal changes and fixes.
    ! Fixed the not-seen-in-taskbar issue for the Foregrounded Progress 
      Dialog.
      A side-effect of the fix is that the dialog is not modal anymore, 
      so you can continue working while the foreground backup / custom 
      copy is in progress. You cannot, however, start a second parallel 
      Backup / Custom Copy. Note that *Background* Processing is the 
      preferred way to go if you intend to keep on working while heavy 
      copying is in progress.

    ! Backgrounded Progress Dialog: Was not reliably seen in the 
      taskbar. Fixed. A side-effect of the fix is that the position of 
      the dialog is now controlled by Windows. Not a bad thing since now 
      it's more out of the way.
      Note that the not-seen-in-taskbar issue is not solved yet for the 
      Foregrounded Progress Dialog.
    * XYcopy 2.00.0022: Internal changes and fixes.
    ! Menu Scripting | Run Script: Scripts larger than 32,767 characters 
      were not editable anymore after toggling Word Wrap. Fixed.

v9.90.1105 - 2011-06-24 14:08
  +++ Configuration | File Operations: Added "Custom Copy", a widely 
      configurable alternative copy method based on Kernel API.
      Custom Copy exceeds shell copy in lots of ways as you will 
      immediately notice when you open its configuration dialog.
      To use Custom Copy in place of the standard Windows shell copy 
      simply check the new option "Use Custom Copy for all copy 
      operations". Note that this includes operations like Copy To, 
      Paste (copy) from clipboard and drag and drop. Currently not 
      included is Rich Copy (might be added later).
      Custom Copy operations currently do not support Undo/Redo. This is 
      planned for a later version.
    * Configuration | File Operations: Reorganized the configuration of 
      Backup which now shares a common configuration dialog with the new 
      Custom Copy. FYI, in a later version this dialog will be 
      accessible directly from the Progress Dialog.
      As you will have already guessed, "Backup" and "Custom Copy" are 
      just labels for two independent configurations of one and the same 
      copy machine.
    > Tip: You can configure Custom Copy directly from the right-click 
      menu of the toolbar button "Queue File Operations".
    * XYcopy 2.00.0012: Internal changes and fixes.
    ! Backup Progress: Pressing Cancel in a unfortunate moment shortly 
      before a file was completely copied could lead to inconsistent 
      messages in the dialog. Fixed.

      state the button shows a pause overlay.
    * Backgrounded Backup: Now the XYplorer main interface (incl. Tree 
      and List) and the Background Jobs dialog are refreshed when the 
      operation is completed, not only after the progress dialog is 
      closed.
    * XYcopy 2.00.0009: Internal changes and fixes.

      from 250 ms to 1000 ms (1 second).
      FYI, to completely prevent that partial contents are shown before 
      all items have been retrieved and sorted use this tweak from 
      v7.10.0030 - 2008-05-30 11:53:

  +++ Backup operations now can be backgrounded and queued. This is 
      accomplished by a new version of XYcopy.exe (XYcopy 2.0).
    + Tree: Added tweak to always select the parent of a deleted folder. 
        TreeSelectParentOfDeleted=1
      Without the tweak the next sibling is selected (if there is any, 
      otherwise the parent is selected).
