Changes in version 1.21:
* Fixed a bug which sometimes substituted invalid directory paths when
updating links for relative URLs
* Fixed bugs in updating links in files with tags
* Fixed a bug which sometimes missed the end of a comment tag (and thus
ignored valid tags until the end of the next comment tag)
Changes in version 1.20:
* Option to convert local links to relative or absolute URLs
* Choice of uppercase or lowercase for all target filesystems
* Recognize text files with the ISO-8859-1 extended character set used
in many Latin-alphabet-based European languages (the tag must
be included in the head of the file)
* Expanded recognition of HTML files -- any file with and
tags are seen as HTML files, regardless of the filename extension
* Windows NT only: found a workaround for an NT-specific file query bug
which caused frequent crashes
* Fixed a bug in renaming URLs of form:
* Fixed a bug in renaming URLs of form: ; a
"ServerDefaultFile" setting in the Preferences/INI file defaults to
"index.html" but can be changed manually
* Changed tag/attribute handling so that the following attributes are
always searched for URLs: "href", "src", "background", "codebase",
"action", "usemap", "dynsrc", "lowsrc", "tppabs"
* Handle unlimited numbers of URLs in one tag
* Under Windows 95 & Windows NT 4.0, the taskbar icon no longer
disappears when the wizard dialog pops up.
* Fixed crash when clicking the "Edit" button in the "Verify Filenames"
dialog and no file is selected
* Set default focus to the list box in the "Verify Filenames" and
"Verify ASCII Line End Conversions" dialogs so you can immediately use
the arrow keys to navigate it
* Enable toggling the checkbox state in the list boxes of the "Verify
Filenames" and "Verify ASCII Line End Conversions" dialogs by pressing
the space bar
* Set the default button to "Edit" in the "Verify Filenames" dialog so
pressing the key now brings up the "Rename File" dialog for the
file selected in the list box
* Double clicking on a list box entry in the "Verify Filenames" dialog
now brings up the "Rename File" dialog
* The "Rename File" dialog's character entry is improved for 8.3 targets
* Macintosh only: the application's preferred size has been increased
from 2000K to 4000K (this should prevent the application from crashing
when larger Web sites (> 400 files) are processed)
* The "Register" applications have been updated with this release
* The "report_of_external_refs.html" file is removed if a site has no
external URLs
* Incorrect reporting of link renaming has been improved in this
scenario: a filename's case is changed and a tag's URL already matches
that changed case
Changes from 1.00 to 1.10:
* Added support for URLs in client-side image maps ![]()
* Added support for other tag/attribute pairs
* Can now convert filenames to all upper case or all lower case
* Ignore text in HTML comments: ""
* Option to open the report using an external text editor (prompts for
the external text editor when report is greater than 32k bytes long)
* Report the existence of file errors, HTML syntax errors, unresolved
links, and unused files at the top of the report
* Updated icons
* Minor modifications to text in dialogs
* Fixed Macintosh version so the license text appears on initial launch
* Launch Web browser when click on "Register online..." button
* Changed URL for online registration
* On Macintosh, fixed wizard dialog size for different installed fonts
* Name change from "Rename!" to "HTML Rename!"
