- New features in release 2.00: (read the FR_User.DOC file for details)
-
- 1. Keyboard control.
- 2. Extended Select.
- 3. New FR_Bypass program.
- This replaces the file requesters in ARP.library, REQ.library
- (for CED Pro), and even ASL.library (the standard Workbench 2.0 FR)
- 4. Fast File Finder.
- 5. Hide Wildcard.
- 6. Pointer-sensitive Help mode.
- 7. Keyboard Help screen.
- 8. Print Directory.
- 9. Hot-key File-Injector facility.
- 10. WB 2.x compatible. (tested on the 3000)
- 11. Create Directory.
- 12. New 2.0 'look'.
- 13. Inverted look for visual difference on saves.
-
-
- Minor changes in release 2.00:
-
- 1. Library version number is now 2.
-
- 2. Editing the file string gadget while the FR is busy reading and
- updating the directory no longer causes problems. You don't need to
- activate the gadget, just type away and it will be updated without being
- activated unless the FR has finished reading the directory.
-
- 3. The colons in the "Files: 077 Dirs: 002" display disappear when the FR is
- reading the directory and only appear when the FR is done reading the
- directory.
-
- 4. The display is not moved anymore after the display gets filled. It
- will not be updated unless the user does something other than click on
- a file. This allows you to reliably double-click a file without worrying
- about it being changed between the two clicks. (by popular demand :-)
- e.g. you can update the display by clicking on the prop gadget or by using
- the cursor up/down keys.
-
- 5. Simple support for proportional fonts in file list display. It displays
- the file names and size only. This will be updated to full support in the
- next release.
-
- 6. Displaying the Logical Devices List and the Storage Devices list does
- _not_ clear the current directory displayed anymore. All you have to
- do to get back to that directory is to hit the right mouse button on the
- file list once or twice to get back to the original directory, which is
- displayed immediately without being re-read from the device.
-
- 7. Support for the '*' as a wildcard. This is automatically converted into
- '#?' whenever you use it. This fixes a problem with calls to req.library
- and arp.library with wildcard patterns based on the '*' character.
-
- 8. Changed the "Bytes Free: xxxxx" display to show both number of bytes free
- and percentage free.
