File finding now runs in two modes. See Preferences for a description.
Along with the other settings saved when a Find is started, the drives being searched are now also saved, and will be marked in the drives menu when the Find window comes up again. Added an alert if you try to do a Find with no drives selected.
There is a "Don't search disks whose names start with" preference you can use to get File Buddy to ignore audio CDs.
The functionality of the Fewer/More Options button in the Find window is now available in a menu, and there is a command key for it.
There are new options in the Name and Only report/Don't report popups in the expanded Find window.
Finding is faster with some options.
The Set Date dialog can now be accessed from the Get Info dialog by simply double-clicking the date you wish to change.
You can make custom folder icons (a la Folder Icon Maker) from the Get Info dialog, and you can make a custom icon from the item's small icons.
A preference has been added that hides File Buddy's windows whenever File Buddy is in the background.
Files can now be "moved" from one disk to another. In reality they are copied, and upon being successfully copied the originals are deleted.
Another preference has been added to chose between quitting File Buddy and closing the File List window if you take any action in the File List window with the Option key down.
The file list now uses little picture buttons instead of text buttons, and there are more of them. One of them displays a popup of special actions. In version 3.0, one lets you change a group of file names (change or remove an extension, for example); and the other lets you delete resource forks.
The file list can now be navigated with arrow keys, and supports key scrolling, i.e., the list scrolls to match characters you type in.
The file list now reflects changes made to items with the Get Info dialog, and can handle most other cases of changes to its items.
Lists of duplicate files can now be generated using one of two methods, and allows substantial flexibility. See the accompanying file "Duplicate Files" for details.
