- o Added interface to FDISKPM.EXE for hard drive objects.
- o Removed + command line argument; now unused.
- o Added Details icons toggle.
- o Made Undelete files command available from drives context menu in
- tree.
- o Added ability to sort containers by filename as well as pathname.
- o Added ability to direct-edit container titles to change directory.
- o Pointer changes when over toolbar/toolbox to aid novice targetting.
-
-
- 1.20:
-
- o Added selection/deselection pushbuttons to directory compare dialog.
- o Enabled drag from directory compare containers.
- o More useful info on file about to be executed in Execute dialog.
- o Added total/selected text fields to directory compare dialog.
- o Gave tree container a minimum width.
- o Menus in the "big three" windows remember their font and colors.
-
-
- 1.21:
-
- o Added "Quick Configs" submenu to Config pulldown.
-
-
- 1.22:
-
- o Added EA dialog to allow viewing EAs and changing text EAs.
- o Added Subject dialog to allow describing objects within FM/2.
- o Search-and-scan can now search within text EAs for text.
- o Added Subject field to Details view.
- o Fixed bug in background rescanning. A reminder: background
- rescanning still isn't thoroughly tested under all possible
- conditions, as indicated in the online help; disable and report if you
- have problems. Report _in detail_, please. Thanks to Jim Gitzen for
- finally providing a bug report with enough data to allow this
- particular bug to be fixed (out of three reports).
- o Change to Instant Command File for Ron Hester.
-
-
- 1.23:
-
- o Added ability to hide tree container.
-
-
- 1.24:
-
- o Added ability to hide directory container(s).
- o Added "Totals" context menu command to tree directory objects.
- o Fixed a couple of cosmetic bugs in EA viewer.
- o Found an interesting OS/2 2.1 bug: you can't find the root directory
- of a FAT drive when asking for EA size, nor can you assign EAs to it.
- Worked around it.
- o Fixed bug where attributes showed up wrong (thanks to Terry Norton for
- noticing).
-
-
- 1.25:
-
- o Added INI viewer.
- o Added ability to change system pointers.
- o Fixed bug (found by the venerable Ron Hester) in which trying to
- extract more files than would fit on one command line using
- File->Extract didn't work right.
- o Added help file viewer.
-
-
- 1.26:
-
- o Extended INI and HLP viewing into archive listing containers.
- Should have been in 1.25 but I forgot.
-
-
- 1.27:
-
- o Put "full path replacement" back into object-rename/move
- direct-editing outside of a details view (where FM/2 replaces the
- partial name of the object being renamed with its full pathname when
- you first elect to direct-edit it). This vanished after Subjects were
- added. Zeke Collinson noticed it. You had to manually fill in the
- full pathname; a real pain, and if you forgot, you didn't get the
- expected results.
- o Put in a workaround for an EPM bug that it looks like IBM has forgotten
- about. This "fix" may break other properly working programs, in which
- case it'll be yanked.
- o Made "Open" context submenu a conditional cascade. Default depends on
- whether the object is a directory and whether FM/2 is the WPS.
-
-
- 1.28:
- o Further enhanced "Open" context commands.
- o You can now rename a file to the same name with different
- case (HPFS only, obviously). Beware of the effects of forcing
- the case of object names (see Toggles) and remember that, while
- HPFS preserves case, it ignores it. BTW, this was a real pain
- in the nether regions.
-
-
- 1.29:
- o Added full .LONGNAME support.
- o Added ability to control display contents of Details view.
- o Found out today that the OS/2 DosQueryAppType API call can be fooled.
- Doesn't harm anything, but if you notice a rare file popping up the
- exec dialog when it's not an app, that's what happened.
- o When you attempt to extract a selected list of files and one or more
- of the files exists in the extract directory, FM/2 will now present
- you with a dialog and allow you to select which of those existing
- files, if any, will be extracted. Any non-dupes will be extracted
- regardless. Previously you only got a dumb popup and a choice to
- continue or cancel the entire extract operation.
-
-
- 1.30:
- o Changed the delete-confirmation dialogs.
- o Changed lightswitch functions around.
- o Removed forced delete toggle, added permanent delete command.
- o Added "Collapse Tree" to tree container popup.
- o Fixed bug in executor that prevented leading quote from being
- inserted before filenames containing spaces (Ron again).
-
-
- 1.31:
- o Archive listing and viewer windows will now save their _size_ (not
- position; that's still determined by the shell).
-
-
- 1.32:
- o Added drag from an archive listing window to an FM/2 directory window.
- You still can't drag to another application or a WPS window for the
- same old reasons.
- o Found another error that can be encountered when copying from HPFS
- to FAT; trapping it now (for automatic truncation during rename).
- More may pop up; this stuff isn't documented all that well...
- o Added minitoolbar to archive listing windows.
-
-
- 1.33:
-
- o Added "Show Archiver Activity" toggle (on by default).
- o Added "Reorder" toggle and dialog to Edit Commands.
-
-
- 1.34:
-
- o Duh. Fixed bug in "Details Setup" noticed by Monte Davis, didn't stick.
