- + Added tweak to define a hotkey to show (restore, foreground) the application when it's in the background, minimized to taskbar, or minimized to tray.
[Settings]
HotKeyShowApp=X
Set to one character (A-Z, 0-9). The character/key will be used together with "Win"-key, so the above example would create the hotkey Win+X to show XY.
Note that such a hotkey does not change your system or registry. It is active only as long as XYplorer is loaded. If more than one XYplorer instance using the same hotkey is loaded then only the first loaded one receives the hotkey. Even if it is unloaded later, no other still loaded instance will respond to the
hotkey.

v7.90.0116 - 2009-02-10 21:45
- ! SC md5: Had a problem (at least under some locales) with certain input characters (e.g. ANSI 138 = Š) because of inherent codepage related conversions. As a result md5() calculations of binary files were likely to return wrong results. Fixed. En passant md5 got a tad faster.
- * Cycling tabs in recently used order: Now, when you are on the most recent tab, Ctrl+Tab will not wrap around anymore but go backward. This allows you to jump back and forth between the 2 most recent tabs with one key combination.
- ! Fixed recent issues related to the /win switch changes in v7.90.0107.

v7.90.0107 - 2009-02-09 14:43
- * File Find: Now by default Junctions are NOT recursed on a recursive File Find (when "Include subfolders" is ticked). To enable recursing Junctions see the tweak below.
- + Added tweak to allow recursing Junctions on a File Find:
[Settings]
FindFollowJunctions=1
Set to 1 to recurse Junctions. On demand I will raise this tweak to config level. - * Configuration | Tabs: Now with "Activate left tab on closing current" AND "Cycle tabs in recently used order" both enabled, the *previously used tab* is auto-selected on closing the current tab.
- * Menu Go | Drives...: Now only existing drives are shown in the popup. Empty removable and unaccessible network drives are skipped.
- ! Cycling tabs in recently used order could get slightly confused after tabs were removed. Fixed.
- * Startup: Before, if called with /ini or /win switch a 2nd instance was loaded always (regardless of any settings concerning this). Now, this is true only for /ini. So now you can run XY with the /win switch and still reuse any existing instance (of course, the /win switch is ignored then).
- ! PFA: Little glitch with quotes in definitions. Now you can do things like this and it works as expected:
\>"C:\Programme\WinMerge\WinMergeU.exe" "<item1>" "<clipboard>"

v7.90.0106 - 2009-02-07 10:21
- + Tree: Now you can freely (in one-pixel steps between a lower and an upper limit) change the node indent using Shift+MouseWheel over the Tree.
Shift+MouseWheel Up (away from you): decrease indent
Shift+MouseWheel Down (towards you): increase indent
In Tree style "Narrow Tree" the setting is ignored.

v7.90.0105 - 2009-02-06 11:39
- + Configuration | Tabs: Added option "Cycle tabs in recently used order". Enable it to cycle the tabs based on the usage sequence (aka MRU) instead of the left-to-right position. The cycle functions are these:
Miscellaneous / Tab Functions /
Cycle Tabs Backward: Ctrl+Shift+Tab; MouseWheel Up
Cycle Tabs Forward: Ctrl+Tab; MouseWheel Down
Cycle Tabs Backward, Delay Browsing: Ctrl+PageUp
Cycle Tabs Forward, Delay Browsing: Ctrl+PageDown
Note that going by MRU has the usual "history" logic: If you go backward from A to B, then to return to A you have to go *forward* (not backward again). - + SC seltab enhanced: Added argument mru.
Syntax: seltab [position], [mru]
mru: 0 = left-right-order
1 = recently used order
only applied if position is relative: "+" or "-"
Examples:
::seltab "+", 1 = select the next tab, use MRU
::seltab "-", 1 = select the previous tab, use MRU - ! Tags: Database was not correctly updated with partially completed file operations, i.e. when you aborted the process at some point. Fixed.
- ! Since 2009-01-27 the app would easily crash when sorting Search Results by Path AND "Show relative path in search results" was enabled. Fixed.
- ! FVS and Locked tabs: If the Default tab was auto-selected due to the locked condition of the current tab it did not receive the FVS style of its location instead of the tab's stored style. However, in case of the Default tab the folder style should overwrite the tab style. Fixed.

v7.90.0102 - 2009-02-05 10:21
- * SC loadtree: Now only existing paths are accepted in the pathlist argument, but any existing *files* at the end of the paths are ignored.
- * Configuration | Tags: Now you cannot move the list positions of the tag schemes anymore. Also deletion works only on the last item of the list. This way the index order of the existing tags is always maintained.
- + Added tweak to generally force generic icons for network locations anywhere in the interface:
[Settings]
GenericIconsForNetworkLocations=1
While aesthetically not very satisfying, this will improve performance for users that often have tabs or UDCs pointing to unavailable network locations.

v7.90.0101 - 2009-02-04 10:38
- * Column-Click Tagging: Now, when using the right button, there's a temporary focus rect marking the field about to be set.
- * Tabs: Slight change in icon retrieval for tabs pointing to network locations. Might speed it up for unavailable network locations.
- * HTML preview: If you attempt to close the preview window using JavaScript "window.close();" you will be stopped and see the message: "Closing the preview window is not allowed."
- ! FVS and Locked tabs: A tab that was auto-selected due to the locked condition of the current tab received the FVS style of its location instead of the tab's stored style, so the rule "tab style overwrites FVS style" was broken. Fixed.

v7.90.0100 - 2009-02-02 12:00
= NEW OFFICIAL RELEASE.
Main changes since last release:
- +++ Tags and Comments. Now you can assign tags and comments to your files and folders.
- +++ Visual Filters. Now you can define any filter to apply only to files yet show or hide all folders.
- +++ Scripting. Now the so-called Heredoc syntax is supported.
- + Added tweak to fix, or rather workaround, a strange caret position error in Tree/List inline rename with Unicode characters, aka "Chinese odd thing".
[General]
FixOddThing=1
Note that with this workaround you may notice a horizontal misalignment of text when pasting into inline rename boxes. It's harmless but cosmetically unsatisfying.

v7.90.0086 - 2009-02-01 10:06
- * SC report: Now field {fullname} returns just "C:" for drive C: (etc.), i.e. a usable path spec. Before it returned an unusable combination of MyComputer and the drive's caption.
- ! SC delete: Did not delete items (in itemlist) containing wildcards anymore. Fixed.
Delete all INI and BAK files in E:\Folder:
delete 1, 1, "E:\Folder\*.tmp | E:\Folder\*.bak";
