v4.50.0046 - 22.03.06 19:01
* Improved resize/layout strategy: now maximizing the info panel
will always leave 2 lines in detail view visible (or 1 line if
horizontal scrollbar is visible), independent of visibility of any
top bars.
! Find Files: Crash after trying to use and invalid RegExp pattern.
Fixed.
+ Toolbar: added "List Management" button, which pops up the List
Management submenu.

! Caught a couple of baby bugs in List Management.

v4.50.0041 - 20.03.06 11:55
+++ Menu Tools: add submenu "List Management" where you can manage
lists like History, Favorites, Address Bar, Name, Location, etc.
More lists will follow, I'm just starting...
+ Added new keyboard shortcuts to my owner-drawn listboxes (see them
in Customize Toolbar, Preview Formats, Color Filter, List
Management, etc.):
Ctrl+Up: shift selected item up
Ctrl+Down: shift selected item down

v4.50.0040 - 18.03.06 16:47
! Toolbar context menu "Customize Toolbar..." did not do what it
said but "Open Configuration in Editor...". Fixed.
* All controls with Auto-complete functionality: the drop-down match
list (the list of items that match what you've typed so far) now has
a distinctive forecolor so that you can easily distinguish it from
the normal drop-down list (the list that contains all stored items
in reverse chronologial order).
Code: Select all
v4.50.0039 - 17.03.06 18:25
+ Menu Tools: added command "Open Configuration in Editor...".
Opens the current INI file in whatever application is associated
with *.ini-files. Of course, any changes you do will be applied
only after a restart without saving.
+ Menu File, Save: the command caption now tells the "Save Settings
On Exit" state.

v4.50.0038 - 16.03.06 22:36
$$$ New license policy. Details see nag splash (initial nag screen):
"XYplorer is not freeware. You may evaluate XYplorer for free for a
maximum period of 21 days. If you wish to continue using it after
21 days, you have to register and purchase a license. This trial
version is fully functional, with one exception: the configuration
will be reset to fabric defaults with a chance of 1:5."
- Dropped command "Reset to Defaults..." in menu View.
Outdated feature fossile from the previous millenium.

! "Toggle Favorite file" did not work in the toolbar icon if there were
no previous favorite files to start with. Fixed.
! "Command prompt here" icon transparent. Fixed.

v4.50.0029 - 14.03.06 21:56
+ Added two nice icons made by Mark James to the toolbar:
Register (some green backs) and Unlock (a key). Thanks, Mark!
Check out Mark's site: http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/silk/
* NT/2K/XP only: changed the filter for listing items in the Nethood.
Thrilling question: do you still see what you'd like to see?
Reason: speed and control.
+ Now configuration files (INI files) are remembered between sessions.
+ The name of the current INI is displayed in the title bar.
+ Toolbar: added "Favorite Files" button, which popups the Favorite
Files submenu.
Code: Select all
v4.50.0025 - 11.03.06 20:09
+ Configuration General, Minimize to tray: added option to use a 4-
bit icon for the system tray. Some trays appear to support only 16
colors.
+ Drag'n'drop: before, you could trigger any number of simultaneous
file operations by keyboard shortcuts, menu commands, or toolbar
buttons, but not by drag'n'drop: the source-control of the first
drag'n'drop operation was blocked until the file operation was
finished, and only then you could start the next. Now, you can use
drag'n'drop while the previous job is still on the way.
+ Menu View: added command "Refresh Folder" (Shift+F4). Refreshes
just the current folder, and is thus a bit faster and more to the
point than Refresh Tree.

v4.50.0022 - 09.03.06 23:04
! Find Files, Excluded Folders: wildcards were allowed but did not
work. Fixed.
Note that you don't have to add trailing "*"s to exclude all
subfolders. It's done automatically.
Examples:
?:\RECYCLER\ = exclude all Recycle Bins
?:\recycler\ = exclude all Recycle Bins as well (case is ignored)
*\junk\ = exclude all junk
C:\Documents and Settings\*\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\
= ignore any IE temp files by any user

v4.50.0021 - 09.03.06 10:57
! Could not select first file in list using up arrow. Fixed.
Code: Select all
v4.50.0020 - 07.03.06 22:29
+ Configuration, Advanced: added checkbox "Slow double-click invokes
single-rename" (slow double-click = clicking an already selected
file). The active state is what you know from XYplorer and most
other file managers. But if you are like me and don't like it and
prefer to invoke rename by F2 and want to simply move the focus by
clicking an item: uncheck it!
* Before, slow double-click rename was invoked when you clicked the
icon or the name of an item. Now it's only the name.
! Sticky file selection: when re-opening a tab with exactly one
selected-but-not-focused file this selection got "sticky", i.e. you
could select a second file by a simple mousedown without holding
Ctrl. Fixed.
* Navigation by arrow keys: in thumbnail views the arrow keys now
always bring you to the start and end of the columns and rows. And
they will always select the then focused file.

v4.50.0017 - 03.03.06 14:00
! File View, ASCII files: better handling of files with mixed line-
endings.
- Unix/DOS = files that have as well 0a as 0d0a line ends
- Mac/DOS = files that have as well 0d as 0d0a line ends
Before you had phantom line feeds in the display of some files.
Code: Select all
v4.50.0016 - 02.03.06 11:56
* Auto-complete in Address Bar and Name/Location field: before, the
first item of the drop-down-list was preselected but not copied to
the edit field (where it can be triggered via <enter>). To get rid
of this inconsistency I removed the preselection.
* Search results, path column: root paths now are displayed slashed.
% Improved file list refresh algorithm for search results: now on
every look-in-path change the listing is updated if necessary. And,
don't worry, it did not get slower but even a bit faster because I
found another little performance tweak.
* Find Files, Multiple Location Search (via Location combo): up to
now the separator between different directories had to be " | "
(space-pipe-space). Now the spaces are optional, so you can for
example search in "C:\ | E:\" or in "C:\|E:\", it's the same.
! Crash on startup when selecting menu View (or invoking any of its
commands) while startup is not yet completely through (e.g. because
folder sizes are still being calculated). Fixed.
! Column width auto-adjustment did not happen after rename
operations. Fixed.
