    + Added "RegExp Rename..." to Rename Special (menu File) which 
      allows you to rename selected filename(s) using Regular Expressions.
      Format: RegExpPattern > ReplaceWith
          or: RegExpPattern>ReplaceWith
      The default is case-insensitive (a=A). To search case-sensitively 
      add a back-slash to the end of ReplaceWith:
              RegExpPattern>ReplaceWith\
      Examples:
      .html$>.htm = change extensions .html to .htm
      .html$>.htm\ = change extensions .html (but not eg .HTML) to .htm

    + Toolbar: added Home icon. Click to go to the current tab's home. 
      The tooltip shows where home is.
    + Now "File Info Tips" (hovering over file icon in file list) show 
      the path of the file if in Find mode (Win2K and WinXP only).
    * "Keep Particular Characters..." and "Search and Replace..." (menu 
      File/Rename Special) now do not change the extension (incl. the 
      dot) but just the file title (or base), that's everything but the 
      extension.

v4.00.0010 - 07.04.05 13:27
    + Now each tab can have its own "Home", defined by a browse/find 
      location and mode, and the usual list settings.
      - To set (or update) the current tab's home click "Set Home"
        (menu View/Browsing Tabs). 
      - To go to the current tab's home click "Go Home"
        (menu View/Browsing Tabs) or simply press F6.
      - You cannot unset a home because it's not necessary
        (if you don't want a home, don't go home).
      Homes are remembered between sessions, and can be set 
      independently of the tab being named or not.
      A new tab starts homeless.
      Apart from the possibility to click "Set Home" home tabs behave 
      100% like homeless tabs.

Ahhh, the help file... every programmer's nightmare. I always update it before I release an official version. Which will be soon... sigh

Wow, three problems I had fixed within a day of requesting them!! Thankyou!

v4.00.0009 - 06.04.05 13:28
    + Tab Strips coloring: no more INI-editing (cf. v3.60.0029). Now all 
      tab strips take the same color scheme as user-defined in 
      Configuration/Colors (F9).
    + Toolbar can be hidden now: menu View/Show Toolbar.
    - Shortcut removal/replacement! These commands are not frequent 
      enough to merit one of those rare delicious shortcuts (for which I 
      have other plans deep in my mind...):
      Menu Edit/Show Folder Sizes -> no shortcut anymore (was Shift+F5)
      Menu Edit/Refresh Thumbs Cache -> now Ctrl+Shift+F8 (was Ctrl+F5)
    * Moved the Refresh commands from the Edit to the View menu.
    + Auto-refresh of file list now is blocked while you are renaming a 
      file.
    + Double-clicking the splitters does minimize/maximize them again ;)

v4.00.0008 - 05.04.05 16:09
    + Toolbar: added "Up"-button: jump to one-level-up (parent) folder.
    + Tabs now remember the previous scroll position (also across 
      sessions).
    + Tabs now remember whether the last focused item was actually 
      selected or not (also across sessions).
    * Tabs redesigned once more and once better!
    * From now on the following hotkeys will only work when Tree or List 
      are focused:
        Ctrl+Shift+Left:  shift current tab to left
        Ctrl+Shift+Right: shift current tab to right
      Before there was a conflict with selecting words in a textfield by 
      Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right.      
    * Added a Colors tab to the configuration dialog: more space on the 
      General tab.
    - Double-clicking the splitters does not minimize/maximize them 
      anymore.
    - Dropped "Automatic File Find when Browsing" (under menu Tools). 
      The functionality might be reintroduced later, this time by tab.

Yep, I'm working on that...

Good idea getting rid of the bucket, and adding pretty cutting

The remembering tabs are cool, but they don't remember scroll position

Version 4! Congrats!

v4.00.0004 - 04.04.05 11:14
  +++ Added a little toolbar containing the basic file operations (cut, 
      copy, paste, delete) and the back/fore arrows.
    + Menu Edit now has all the standard commands: cut, copy, paste.
      Contrary to prior versions of TrackerV3, all cut, copy, and paste 
      operations now use the clipboard. So now you can for example copy 
      by Ctrl+C and then paste by pressing the toolbar button, or Cut by 
      using menu Cut and then paste by Ctrl+V. Normal stuff.
    + Cut files (Ctrl+X) now show the nice ghosted effect in tree and list.
    + Tabs: now each tab remembers not only its column settings but also 
      the mode is was in when left (browse or find mode). So "Browsing 
      Tabs" can become "Finding Tabs" and vice versa on the fly.
      When you re-select a tab that was browsing last time:
        - tree will jump to that place and list will show the files.
        - Find Files settings do not change.
        - If a file was selected it will be reselected.
      When you re-select a tab that was finding last time:
        - tree will not change
        - the last find will run again exactly as before
          and list will show the results.
        - Find Files settings change according to the tab's previous 
          settings. 
        - If a file was selected it will be reselected.
    - The "Finding Tabs" as introduced in v3.60.0154 are gone for the 
      time being. They'll be replaced by something even better soon.
    - The bucket has been dropped (see v3.50.0074).
    * Oh yeah, today's the 4th day of the 4th month and now it's 
      TrackerV3 4.0! After more than 5 years of version 3 and all those 
      major and revolutionary new features and looks, it was high time for 
      the big "4". Dig it!
      However, we don't want to forget the long and successful version-
      3-era: the program title will remain "TrackerV3" and not change to 
      "TrackerV4", and I'm certainly not mad enough to change the domain 
      to trackerv4.com.
    
................... ver 3.60 ........................................................
v3.60.0166 - 02.04.05 18:51
   *% History functions (= menu Go) rewritten. Now also the future 
      history is remembered between sessions. As a side effect, speeded up 
      startup by some milliseconds.
    * Minimize/Maximize Panel (menu View) now toggles between minimal 
      and last user-selected size of the panel.

hey Gandolf! More than once I thought where the hell is Gandolf? Good to hear from you.
If you are not a toolbar man, you are probably a keyboard man. ALT-LEFT and ALT-RIGHT are your friends. If not, you lost 24 pixels vertical space, and get a free excercise in brain gym: what was down right is now up left!

I don't use tabs because my paths are long and the filenames are the same in many directories, hence all tabs start and end the same. No point in naming them since they are frequently only used for a short time. As a result I've now lost the forward / backward buttons which I did use constantly!
Any chance of it going back where it was or even at the extreme right of the menu bar. No point in suggesting it goes on the toolbar, when you implement that, since I don't like toolbars either. (I'm just difficult!)

P.S. Apologies for not being active in the forum recently - I'm waiting for a cataract operation so use of the computer is limited.
