Veranderingen voor v2.52 beta 1 - v2.52 beta 2

• Altap Salamander core changes:
• New Password Manager with option to protect your passwords with Master Password. If you are concerned about unauthorized use of your computer (by malware or person), use the Master Password to store your passwords encrypted using AES-256 algorithm. In such case you will have to enter the Master Password once each Altap Salamander session need to access your saved passwords. Right now only FTP Client is using Password Manager, but we will also update the WinSCP plugin.
• Windows XP and Vista: changed Numerical sorting option to be compatible with Windows Explorer when file name extensions are displayed.
• Compare Directories: comparing of files by Content is up to 7x faster for files on the same disk (even on different partitions).
• Altap Salamander 2.52 is now backward compatible with plugins for versions 2.5 and 2.51.
• Horizontal mouse wheel events detected on Windows XP and 2000. Microsoft Intellipoint drivers must be installed.
• Old hack removed: the dot in the beginning of the file name means the extension separator now. For example file ".txt" has the text file icon. Directories has no extension, the part behind the dot is just another part of the directory name.
• Better error handling while reading icons from network drives prevents Salamander from infinite panel refreshing caused by unreadable icon.
• Fixed calculation of extension column (optional) width when Show names option was switched to In upper case.
• Better low memory handling, Abort/Retry/Ignore message box is displayed. It is possible to click the Ignore button to pass NULL into application.
• Fixed problem with accessing admin shares on computers with underscore in the name as "\\comp_a\c$".
• Improved external archivers calling. Packing or Unpacking using external archiver no longer block another instances of Salamander.
• Fixed drag and drop with no key modifier (Shift or Ctrl). When dragging from plugin file system to Windows Explorer window (to disk where the TEMP directory is placed), the Move operation was performed instead of Copy.
• Fixed drag and drop from Find window to Windows Explorer under Windows Vista. Moved items stayed in the Find window.
• Improved files association reading in Windows Vista. Now reading also Registry keys UserChoice and OpenWithProgids.
• Reverted recent change in order of items used in context menu operations. See forum.
• Better horizontal scrolling in panels: the panel under cursor is scrolled instead of active panel.
• Fixed progress bar painting. The font was not initialized properly.
• Windows Vista: cancelling of the UAC elevation prompt caused lost of active panel focus.
• Main thread priority is lowered while calling context menu methods so shell extensions doesn't run on higher priority.
• Fixed support for ClearType in the Directory and Information bar.
• Improved algorithm for choosing colors in Directory Line.
• Fixed detecting of total memory for the Bug Report.
• Altap Salamander SDK: new CSalamanderCryptAbstract interface (AES and SHA1 algorithm), new CSalamanderPNGAbstract for PNG reading from memory or PE resources. New CSalamanderZLIBAbstract (ZLIB library).
• New DiskMap plugin:
• Disk space analyzer that graphically shows disk space usage as set of nested rectangles.
• You can easily identify which files and folders take up the most space.
• Scan whole disk or user-specified directory branch.

Normaliz.dll is part of Windows Vista, MSIE7, Windows Media Player 11 or just free download idndlpackage.exe.
• Better UTF16 detection.
• Fixed GPF when files become equal after re-compare with changed options.
• Wrong bigEndian endianness was sometimes still used when comparing as UTF8 after UTF16BE or UTF32BE was used.
• Fixed GPF (or random behavior) in the "Show Only Differences" mode when the only difference is in EOL at EOF of one of the files.
• Attempt to correctly select & display selected combining diacritics on XP+. (W2K - don't seem to support combining diacritics.) A better approach for full support even when not selecting is needed, probably removal of dependence on fixed-width font should made at the same time.
• User defined encoding has higher priority than BOM, UTF16, and UTF8 detection.
• The File Comparator window has the same size and position od Salamander's main window, including the maximized state.
• FTP plugin:
