Changes for Voodoo-X, Tue/2/Feb/2000 (Most recent versions at the top)
Voodoo-X 1.1 Release (15.2.2000)
--------------------------------
- First public release.
Voodoo-X 1.1 BETA 4 (8.2.2000)
------------------------------
- Implemented support for xvs.library, also added a new menuitem called
"Check for viruses".
- Added copyright and version information for XVS to the About requesters.
- Added new menuitem "About versions...". This gives version information
on all currently loaded modules. Also removed old version text from the
main About requester.
- Added version information on NList and NListview MUI custom classes.
- Updated webpage URL in the About window.
- Fixed the Abort button, when extracting files.
- The progress Abort button should be more responsive now.
- "Copy to..." and "Move to..." file requesters now display the correct
destination name.
- When extracting the selected entries, the lister follows the selected
entries by every page, not every entry. This means the lister scolling
looks nicer and requires less updates.
- Status and information gadget is now cleared when user closes last
archive.
- Made some minor cosmetic changes.
- When moving archives, Voodoo-X will rename the archive if destination
file is on the same device.
- muimaster.library was accidentally being opened/closed twice.
Voodoo-X 1.1 BETA 3 (6.2.2000)
------------------------------
- Fixed typo in bubble help for the archive path string gadget.
- Change title "Archiver Name" in XAD client info window to "Client name".
- Both the archive and destination ASL popup requesters now record their
window positions. The current implementations are a bit hacky. :-/
- Voodoo-X no longer tries to extract and view links/dirs (with multiview),
when the user double clicks on one.
- When the user clicks once on a link entry, the status bar will show the
real destination of that link.
- Cleaned up some of the code, removed redundant variables, etc.
- Added icon.library and tooltype handling code.
- Added VIEWER tooltype. This parameter allows the user to specify an
alternative viewer, when double clicking on an entry. If this tooltype
is not present, then Voodoo-X will default to multiview.
- All XAD error requesters now give more information.
- Progress windows now display the current file being processed.
- Extended (and renamed) Voodoo-X's internal IPC port. It now accepts
simple commands like iconify, uniconify quit, etc. Also modified main
event loop to handle quit events.
- The status bar now shows the amount of selected files.
- Added bold text styles to the status bar to make it more readable.
- Menuitem "Select none" now clears the active entry too.
- When a second Voodoo-X process is launched, the screen that the first
one resides on is brought to front. This avoids confusion.
- Voodoo-X now displays a progress window while sorting/displaying the
entries of big archives (1000 entries+). This comes in handy when
processing excessively big archives like HD backups, etc.
- Added "Open..." and "Close" menu items to the "Archive" menu.
- Cleaned up some GUI calls.
- Added XADCF_FILESYSTEM flag recognition the client window, which is new
for XAD version 5+.
- Added code to make sure the progress window is always the front most
window, when it has just been opened.
Voodoo-X 1.1 BETA 2 (4.2.2000)
------------------------------
- Fixed XAD copyright dates in the About requester.
- Renamed "Save..." menuitem to "Copy to...".
- Added "Move to..." menuitem.
- Added checks for DD and HD ADFs.
- Implemented "Copy to..." and "Move to..." menuitem code.
- Implmented "Clear archive history..." menuitem code.
- Implemented the archive delete code. The menuitem is now called "Delete
from disk..." and has a new position in the menu.
- Fixed a bug in GUI_Popup() that left intuition.library open if
muimaster.library was not found on the system.
- Made some cosmetic fixes to the popup help text, file requester titles,
MUI titles, etc.
- The main lister now shows file comments.
- Added confirm requester to the "Extract all..." menu item.
- Multiple copies of multiview can now be run, at the same time.
- Implemented a more advanced temporary file allocation and removal system.
- Archive extraction now has a progress window.
- Added some overwrite confirm requesters.
- Implemented "Select pattern..." window and it's code.
- Added NList copyright information to the About window.
- Multiview wasn't being launched correctly when Voodoo-X was launched under
the Workbench's context, since no path was available. Voodoo-X now uses
wbstart.library (optional) to overcome this. Later versions of Voodoo-X
will also use workbench.library v44 to do this (that is, when my AmigaDev
2.1 CD arrives :-).
- Added version information for wbstart.library in the About window. Also
added copyright information.
- About window was showing wrong revision of muimaster.library.
- Recoded the WB/Shell arg processing.
- Added simple IPC port for transfering args from one Voodoo-X process to
another. This means there'll always be one Voodoo-X process running to
avoid confusion.
- Implemented XAD client information window.
- Main lister now identifies and shows links.
- Extract routine will now skip links.
- The load routine will now check to see if an incomming archive is already
in the archive history list, if so, it will activate that entry instead of
loading the whole archive from disk again. This prevents useless clones
filling up the history list.
- Loading archives pops the main Voodoo-X window to front. This comes in
handy when another Voodoo-X process is transfering it's args to it.
Voodoo-X 1.1 BETA 1 (27.1.2000)
-------------------------------
- Initial BETA version.
