    * Configuration | Tabs: Rewrote the customization of the tab 
      captions. Now you have a dropdown "Tab captions" with 3 choices:
        - Full path
        - Folder only
        - Custom
      The last one can be further defined by using the Custom button. 
      While the factory default is
        <drive>: <folder>
      you can do anything that crosses your mind, e.g.
        <folder> (<drive>)
        <folder> on <drive>:
        etc.
    * Configuration | File Info Tips: The list below "Show custom file 
      info tips" is now always enabled. Makes it easier to see what's 
      available even when the checkbox is not ticked.
    ! Configuration | Tag | Database Clean-Up: When you chose "Check 
      fixed drives only", it only left the drive letter and tag number 
      for the other drives (bug since v8.70.0005). Fixed.
    ! List: Opening files with the shell-associated application still 
      failed in some instances. Fixed #4.

    + SC getinfo got a new named argument "regcmd". Rather for debugging 
      purposes (but who knows) this is a way to quickly retrieve the 
      default verb and command line (the one triggered by dbl-click) for 
      any registered file type from the registry.
      Syntax: getinfo("regcmd", extension)
        extension:  [required] any registered file extension
        return:     Verb=Command
                    Nothing if the extension does not exist.
      For example, the following line:
        text getinfo("regcmd", "mp3");
      will return (on my system)
        Play="C:\Programme\Winamp\winamp.exe" "%1"
      which is made of the verb and value of this key:
        HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Winamp.File.MP3\shell\Play\command
    ! List: Opening files with the shell-associated application still 
      failed in some instances. Fixed #2.

    + Preview: Added audio format FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec). As 
      always you just need the codec on your system to actually be able 
      to preview *.flac files.
    * Manage User-Defined Commands Dialog: Removed the buttons Apply and 
      Reset from the Command Properties section. From now on any command 
      property changes are auto-applied. To undo any changes you made 
      simply Cancel the dialog.
    * List Management Dialog: Slightly reorganized the buttons. Now the 
      Browse button sits right under the Edit button.
    ! List: Opening files with the shell-associated application still 
      failed in some instances. Fixed.

v8.70.0005 - 2009-12-03 10:00
    * Configuration | Tag | Database Clean-Up: Now also the 
      capitalization of the item names is checked and corrected if 
      necessary.
    * Find Files: Now found items are displayed at once in the search 
      results list. Before, they were displayed in packets of at least 
      64 items, which meant that you would not see any results for a 
      while even if there were results already.
    ! List: Opening media files associated with Media Player by dbl-
      click did not work anymore since last version. Fixed.
    ! List: Opening various types of executable files (e.g. *.vbs) by 
      dbl-click did not work anymore since last version. Fixed.
    * Find Files: Now the capitalization of the path spec in the 
      Location field is internally auto-corrected (you won't see this in 
      the GUI) when a search is triggered.

    * Rewrote opening a file with the shell-associated application 
      (triggered e.g. by Dbl-Click or Enter on a file in the list). Now 
      it should correctly trigger the default command for the file type 
      as defined in the registry, including any command line switches. 
      Before, those command line switches had been ignored.
    * Backup: Backup log is now opened from "View log?" prompt with PFA-
      associated app (if any). Before, it was opened using the shell-
      associated application.
    ! Find Files: After a metadata search or tag/cmt search you could 
      not do a normal name search anymore because a flag was not reset 
      internally. Fixed.
    ! Find Files: With search results to "Current tab" the tab caption 
      and location was not always correctly updated. Fixed.
    ! Address Bar: Could become unresponsive for a while when typing 
      into the edit box while unavailable network locations where listed 
      in the Address Bar's MRU dropdown. Fixed.
    ! Catalog: Shift+Del did not work anymore to remove an item from 
      Catalog without prompt. Fixed.

      names. You can for example find all files with names larger than 
      260 characters.

      work when a single column was wider than the whole list. Fixed.

    * Configuration | General | Disallow dragging from tree and list: 
      Renamed to "Disallow left-dragging from tree and list" because 
      that's what it does.
    ! The default PFA/POM "Append modified date" that's coming with a 
      fresh install as example was buggy. It did not give the expected 
      results when more than one file was selected because double quotes 
      were used instead of single quotes around the date variable. 
      Fixed.
    ! Menu File | Settings: Changes in a User Button were not 
      registered. An asterisk (*) should be prefixed to the "Save 
      Configuration" item to mark it dirty, and the color of the "Save 
      All Settings" TB button should change from green to brown. Fixed.
    * Updated the help file.

    ! Find Files: Searching for a string that coincided with one of the 
      supported field prefixes (e.g.: tag) did not work as expected 
      anymore because it was falsely interpreted as a field prefix. 
      Fixed.
    ! Find Files | Name & Location: Clicking the Mode label to cycle the 
      mode prefixes did not work alright when the search term had a 
      field prefix. Fixed.

    * Command Line Switches: Now the order of switches is not relevant 
      anymore. Only the startup path must be last.
      So both orders work now:
      XYplorer.exe[ /win=min|max|normal][ /ini=myini][ mystartpath]
      XYplorer.exe[ /ini=myini][ /win=min|max|normal][ mystartpath]
    ! Batch Rename: When applied to files in different locations (in a 
      recursive Search Results listing), numbers were suffixed where it 
      was not really necessary -- while a file of the same name already 
      existed it was in a different location so no collision was to be 
      avoided. Fixed.
    ! Menu File | Restart without Saving: Didn't restart XYplorer with 
      the appropriate command line switches. Fixed.
    ! Backup Operation: Preserving item dates did not work as expected 
      on all systems when items were read-only. Fixed.
    ! Rename Preview: The last lines of the lists only partially 
      displayed under certain font / DPI settings. Fixed.

    * File Info Tips: Now with "Show custom file info tips" OFF the Name 
      of the hovered item is added to the top of the tip.
    ! SC setkey: Did not take care that spaces in the value are not 
      lost when the value is read back using getkey. Fixed.
    ! Auto-Refresh on Cut and Paste between panes: Cut items were not 
      removed from source pane. Fixed.
    ! Tabs: Dragging over a tab header with an X-close button let to a 
      display glitch in visual style XYplorer Classic. Fixed.
    ! Action Log: Error on writing the Action Log to disk when a single 
      action needed more than 32767 bytes in the database (action.dat), 
      which can easily happen e.g. on large copy jobs with several 
      thousands files. Fixed.
    ! Undo: Undoing a copy of many items (> 1000) with "Delete to 
      recycle bin" enabled was very slow. Now it's fast.
