WHATS NEW in AF - The Archive Folder
====================================
(New = +, Bugfix = *, Changed = #)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
New in version 0.23:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ Added a menu option to open the ARCHIVER.BB2 to edit the archivers.
+ Improved EA support. When opened by AF (or rearchived) an archive will now
have an "Archive" file type. This means that - depending on the archiver -
there is no need for file extensions. Some LHArc versions doesn't support
archive names without the "LZH" extension.
+ Added a "permanent" menu. AF has still context sensitive popup menus.
# Changed the icon to a more "Merlin like" one.
# Changed the layout of the settings notebook.
* Any readonly attribute is now cleared from the temporary archive so that
it will be removed from the TMP directory.
* When updating files allready in archive they showed up twice in the container.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
New in version 0.22:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ Added a "Rearchive" menu option.
+ All archiver actions are now performed on a temporary archive. The user
is asked to save the archive before ending the program. This also cures
the 0-byte archive bug (see below).
* Most archivers choked on 0-byte archives (from templates).
* The installation script created a directory named "TEMPLATES" with a .LONGNAME
of "Archive templates". Due to the the fact that I cannot count it could
create some problems on a FAT drive. Now the script will name the directory
"TEMPLATE".
# Archiver output window is now sizeable and keeps the size and position
between sessions.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
New in version 0.21:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ Window for archiver output. Good way to debug archiver.bb2 settings.
+ "Test archive" menu option.
+ Added a deinstallation script allthough I prefer that it isn't used ;-)
+ User cefinable external viewer.
+ Added some more help albeit still rather short.
+ Added a file dialog for adding files to an archive.
* Installation script didn't add file type to the templates.
* Distribution archive was missing an ARCHIVER.BB2 file.
# Improved multithreading when adding files to archives.
