Global fix
==========

- Changed the starting sequence of the Explorer...
  First the program will start and than the Infobox will popup for 3 seconds.

- Corrected Buttons to show the kickstart font even when it is fixed with programs
  like MagicWB (I didn`t use this shit - Sorry Geraldo).

  Result: Font didn`t override the button border.

- Fixed the starting problems on some computers.             
  Sometimes the program asked for the file "Ram:t/lister"
  The problem was AMITCP or the Surfer package coz they assign RAM:t to the SYS:
  partition!!!!! Note: Temp: is the same like Ram:t but the stupid programers
  forget the old rulez from Commodore...

  When you start the Explorer, it will "Assign" it to the normal way and AmiTcp
  still works... (assign t: ram:t) 

- Corrected the loading of files to the Editor.
  If the loaded file is executable or too big, an Error message will popup and the
  program will load the file until the buffer is full... 
   
  Result: Program didn`t exit anymore.

- Added Online Help
  If this button is selected you will get every time if you click onto a button
  informations about it...

- Added new code for AMINET!!!
  Now it works perfectly, when you read from the AMINET CD`s and other devices...

- Corrected Copy,Move and Delete for version 4.

- Corrected Run...
  Now it will check if the selected item is an executable or not.

- Added Abort to "Rename".

- Corrected doubleclick on listings.
  Program didn`t exit anymore if the loaded file is executable...

- If the listed file gives an wrong information, than the splitting of the archive
  is too big or the datatype is unknown....  

- Added a lot of requesters for the action on files.

- Fixed EXIT...
  Now the program will delete all unused files and directories from RAM:

- Fixed the menu items: Mount FF0, Mount FF1 etc.
  The menu items didn`t read from the external mountlist...

- Changing the "Unpack" again...
  Now you must select the source from the "Source-Window". (Like Opus4)
  All packers now working this way.
  If you don`t give an destiantion than the Explorer will unpack the archive to 
  the source directory...
  
- Corrected DMS dizzer...
  When you read from CD`s the Explorer send the message: Drive protected...
  Now it works!

- Reworked the code for  MC2LZX req    &  MC2LHA req    .
  Now it also working with the Source/Destination...
  You must select the Source and the Destination!
  Now it works also on device names which are seperated with Spaces...

- Reworked the code for AutoConvert (AC --> LHA & AC --> LZX /ID)
  Now it also working with the Source/Destination...
  You must select the Source and the Destination!
  (f.e Source = CD0: and Destination = Workbench:Test
  Now you also can select a device for DMS...  

- Corrected Save xxx & Add xxx-Id...
  Now it works also on device names which are seperated with Spaces...

- Corrected "Del ID" for deleting ZIP ID`s...
  (Global change: Now it will delete all files with the ending .diz)

- Corrected "Delete"...
  Now it also will delete files with spaces in names...

- Corrected "Save Other"
  Now it will save file_id`s with spaces in names...

- Added ARC & ZOO to "Save Other"

- Removed long outstanding bug from ARC. (Much faster now!)
  Didn`t unpack the whole archive anymore if you only want to have the
  File_ID... (ASCII / AG List and just the click...)

- Corrected some menu items which show the wrong colour when selected...

- Reworked the code for AutoConvert-ID ->  AC ID-LZX  and  AC ID-LHA  .
  Now it also working with the Source/Destination...
  You must select the Source and the Destination!
  Now you also can select a device for DMS...  

- Corrected key input for the "path"
  Now you also can type into the path and it will read the directory correctly...

- Added a new button "<->" this will copy the - Source- directory list to the - Destination - window.
  If you want to convert archives to the same directory...

- Deleted the button "FileInfo"...
  You will always get an information, if you click onto the files...

- Corrected UNDO...

- Corrected MCTAR
  Now it will pack the new TAR archive correctly.

- Sill to do: MCZOO (didn`t create directory path to the new archives)

---------------------------------------
Version 4.1 (Int.F5) 13-15.05.98
---------------------------------------

- Changed Move,Delete,Rename,Copy,Start Install and Run.
  Now you can also use these function from the -destination- window.

- Removed "GetPattern" button.
 
- Added Getpattern (*.*) to the -destination- window.

- Corrected "Save Other" again.
  Now it will really save file_id`s with spaces in names...
  TAR & ZIP & LZX corrected.
  ARC can save files with spaces in names but it shows only
  the first part of the name. To delete these kind of file
  items you must use an "*" behind the name.  
  (Limitations: You can`t use / and # in names.)

- Corrected key input for the "selected file item"
  If there are many files inside the archive you want to delete
  than use the "*". (f.e. You want to delete pictures from the
  archive, click on one picture and change the Name: *.jpg and
  hit "Delete Archive Item" - Result: All JPG`s are gone..)
  
- Changed button "<->".
  This will copy the directory list from one window to the other
  window.
  
- Changed "List" of archives.
  Alphabet. order...
  Removed last empty item...

---------------------------------------

- Changed the Explorer!!!
  
  !!!Now you can work with both windows!!!
  
  Source & Destination windows have now the same functions...

- Changed LZX listing!
  Due an internal error of LZX some files where listed only with the size
  and the date... (You can check this when you open a shell and list an archive)

- Changed MCTAR, MCZIP and MCZOO.
  Now you must set an destination for this functions.

- Added new feature: MOVE & COPY (more) 
  If you enable the function all highlighted files will be copy to a new location.
  f.e. You hilighted some files at the SYS: directory than you go f.e. to the
  prefs directory and highlight there some files, than you go to DH1: and highlight
  again some files... than click onto COPY and all files will be copied to the new
  location... Goil! Nicht war... (Hmm, ich dachte mal was neues, was noch nie da war...)

- Added "Pattern Search Function" to all AC`s
  f.e. With *.lha and AC-->LZX only the LHA files will be converted.
