Miscellaneous

The above paragraph applies only to public releases of the software. Beta releases cannot be distributed; you can use them only if you obtained them directly from me. Beta releases can be distinguished after the "b" in their version number (such as 1.0b1).

• Added support for CodeWarrior's text editor.

• Extended scripting support.
• Integration with URL Manager Pro.
• Link names are displayed in addition to addresses.
• Added support for all HTML 3.2 tags containing URLs, including <BASE HREF>.
• Supports an unlimited number of mappings.
• Added support for file: URLs.
• Open Transport native on 68K (previous versions used MacTCP emulation).
• Checking local links is faster.
• No longer crashes when Auto-Zoom is on and the application is hidden.

• New networking code should be more robust.
• Files can be fetched directly from a server using Open Location.
• Links can be followed recursively. Use the Recursion settings panel to configure recursion.
• Each link is checked at most once.
• New Local Configuration settings panel.
• New timeout setting allows defining (roughly) how long it is acceptable to wait on a link.

• The keyCallerPSN parameter to the Check Links event is now optional.
• Fixed a bug with URL resolution when the URL contains ../..
• The settings dialog allows saving the settings to a text file, so you can easily show me your settings when reporting a bug.
