2.x Version History

Version 2.2.1   10 June 1994
   A variety of bugs have been fixed.
   Find Unattached Aliases… will now work with a much larger set of unattached aliases.

Version 2.2   2 May 1994
   File finding now allows searching for text inside files. Some file types are not searched. See Finding Files for specifics.
   Version strings can now be modified for documents. It was a design decision to prevent modifying them for applications, controls panels, and such. The interface on this is not obvious, so see Getting Info or use Balloon Help.
   Fixed a few bugs.

Version 2.1.1   25 April 1994
   Fixes the Find Empties bug for users of CP TrashBack™. Dialog zoom rects may be a little friendlier to some video setups.

Version 2.1   21 April 1994
   Drag&drops will now change names, and they are slightly smaller.
   File copying provides better progress reporting and improved response to canceling, especially when copying across a network, and the watch cursor now spins while files are copying. The progress bar works better. Some minor bugs fixed.
   Finding lots of files handles tight memory situations better. Some minor bugs in the Find window are fixed. The date menus have been expanded.
   A rancom crasher in Get Info is fixed.
   You can now adjust heading widths in the file list window. The first item in the Headings popup has been changed to Use Defaults. It puts all headings into the list using default sizes and positions.
   A bug that would cause the top part of the file list window to be erased under certain circumstances is fixed.
   Minor tweaks to the code. Some things are faster. Believe it or not, it's a tiny bit smaller.

Version 2.0.7   3 April 1994
   A couple of minor bugs fixed.
   A Find based on creator or file type should now work for users of AutoDoubler and SpaceSaver.
   When a Find uses size, previous versions of File Buddy included folders at random. Starting with 2.0.7, when you set a file size criteria, the item below it is set to exclude folders. If you set this to include folders, their sizes will be used as well, but things will slow down.
   The registration form now has spaces for NiftyServe and AppleLink addresses.

Version 2.0.6   17 February 1994
   Kanji users should now be able to use dates when finding files.
   The nasty crashes that afflicted users of 68000 Macintoshes are now gone.

Version 2.0.5   27 January 1994
   Numbers now work again for everyone. It seems there is a bug in System 7.1 that allows users to select separators in the Numbers control panel that prevents Apple's fancy number formatting calls from working.

Version 2.0.4   20 January 1994
   The rare crash when doing a find is gone. Same for the crashes afflicting users of a Plus or SE. If there is insufficient memory to complete a Find, there is now an option to display the items found up to that point. Minor tweaks. Minor bugs fixed.

Version 2.0.3   13 January 1994
   A Clear Find Settings item has been added to the Find menu. Minor bugs fixed.

Version 2.0.2   8 January 1994
   Seems that in checking for something in 2.0 that most people would not notice, I introduced a bug in 2.0.1 almost anyone would notice. To those few that got 2.0.1, I apologize. Tweaked the transition from More Options to Fewer Options in the Find window.

Version 2.0.1   7 January 1994
   Fixed memory bug. Added code to check for invalid references to items selected in the File List window.

Version 2.0   4 January 1994
   File Buddy 2.0 is released. Happy New Year.
