Veranderingen voor v3.05 - v3.06

OpenSSL upgraded to 1.0.1l for security bug fixes.

Veranderingen voor v3.04 - v3.05

Eroiica Viewer plugin is removed and will no longer be part of Altap Salamander. We are sorry for inconvenience, unfortunately the underlying rendering engine cannot be licensed anymore. We apologize for the inconvenience. If you know any suitable rendering engine that can be bundled with Altap Salamander, please contact us on support@altap.cz. Thank you.

Veranderingen voor v3.03 - v3.04

OpenSSL upgraded to 1.0.1j for security bug fixes.
Fixed Ctrl+Number hotkey in Copy/Move dialog box.
It is possible to move User Menu submenu into/over another submenu.
WinSCP
Failure when SSH authentication prompt with no actual prompts is received.

Veranderingen voor v3.02 - v3.03

When network path in panel has become inaccessible when Salamander's main window was inactive, it was not possible to cancel checking of inaccessible network path. You can use ESC key (after activation of Salamander's main window) or click on close button in checking path window now.
FTP Client
OpenSSL updated to version 1.0.1h (fixed SSL/TLS MITM vulnerability - CVE-2014-0224). Both libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll compiled with /DYNAMICBASE (ASLR - Address Space Layout Randomization) and /NXCOMPAT (DEP - Data Execution Prevention) options for better security.
UnISO
Fixed extraction of files over 4GB from HFS+ (ISO/DMG) archives. The extracted file content was clipped to modulo 4GB, leaving the rest filled with zeros.
Xbox: Fixed extraction of CreationTime for the "Information on image" summary. Fixed scanning directories spanning over multiple sectors.

Veranderingen voor v3.01 - v3.02

Shift+F3 (Open Active Folder command) uses short 8.3 name when available. It is possible to display and focus any name (even names requiring support of unicode) from panel in Window Explorer window.
Altap Salamander and plugins are compiled with /DYNAMICBASE (ASLR - Address Space Layout Randomization) and /NXCOMPAT (DEP - Data Execution Prevention) options for better security. http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?t=7537
Fixed old UI glitch. Empty panel hint "There are no items in this panel." was sometimes painted several times without erasing background. http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?t=7512
Getting OneDrive (formerly SkyDrive) folder location on Windows 8.1 works fine even with changed location of OneDrive folder. http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?t=7484
If Google Drive folder does not exist on disk (sometimes when you are not logged in), Google Drive icon is not shown in Change Drive menu and Drive toolbars.
Eroiica Viewer
Fixed rare problem with loading pfltwmf.dll on plugin startup. We are preloading rtfsupport.dll now.
Portable Executable Viewer
Text descriptions for DLL Characteristics flags such as Image can be relocated at load time, Image is NX compatible, etc.

Veranderingen voor v3.0 - v3.01

Hot Paths count extended from 10 to 30. Use Ctrl+Shift+= to add the current directory to Hot Paths. It works only if some Hot Path on position 11..30 is free.
Find window: new command Open All Selected (Shift+Enter). Opens all selected files and directories.
New option: Keep environment variables updated to system values. When checked, Salamander reads system environment variables on start and when system environment variables are changed. Values of environment variables inherited from parent process are overwritten by values from system. Variables which do not exist in system remain untouched. Uncheck this option to use inherited environment variables in running Salamander and all processes started from it.
Fixed Windows 8 problem with missing SALRTL9.DLL.
Checksum plugin
Fixed SHA-256 and SHA-512 for files with size from 0x20000000.
Faster SHA-256 and SHA-512 algorithm.
FTP Client plugin
OpenSSL 1.0.1g with fix pro TLS heartbeat read overrun (CVE-2014-0160).
UnRAR plugin
UnRAR.DLL is W2K compatible again (added missing TzSpecificLocalTimeToSystemTime).

Veranderingen voor v3.0 beta 4 - v3.0

Compatible with Windows 8.1, 8, 7, Vista, XP, and 2000 (both 32-bit and 64-bit). Fixed compatibility warning when starting Altap Salamander on Windows 8.1.
New native x64 version of Altap Salamander to bypass limitations of x86 applications (File System Redirector, Registry Redirector). With x64 version you will see real directories on your disks instead of redirected ones, x64 keys in Registry (x86 keys are under Wow6432Node), and context menu items coming from x64 shell extensions. All plugins were ported to x64 except of UnACE (there is no x64 version of UnACE library) and third-party plugins: WinSCP and Eroiica Viewer. Start x86 version for tasks you cannot finish with the x64 build. Both x64 and x86 versions of Altap Salamander 3.0 can be installed at the same time and sharing the same configuration in the Registry. Note: we plan to port Eroiica Viewer to x64 version.
Copy files on Windows 7 and later: we have added faster asynchronous algorithm for copying files to/from network. Its speed on our local GLAN network is 111 MB/s, conventional algorithm speed is 86 MB/s. It affects also moving of files in case you are not moving in scope of one volume (then it is just rename, not copy and delete).
Console version of WinRAR 5.0 supported.
Support for progress bars in Windows 7 and 8 taskbar buttons.
Hot paths are available in Altap Salamander jump list (Windows 7+ feature).
Altap Salamander 3.0 has most reliable copy routine on the market
When copying is interrupted (e.g. network is temporarily disconnected or target disk is full), Salamander can retry copying and continue where copy operation was interrupted. It verifies end of unfinished target file against source file to detect potential write errors. It's especially useful for long transfers via VPN or other slow networks. Explorer and Total Commander (TC) always start from the beginning, retrying is not supported.
Copying/moving links (junction points, symlinks, or volume mount points) to different disk: choose if you want to copy link target or skip it and just create empty directory. Explorer always skips links when moving and copies link target when copying, TC always copies link target.
Copy can optionally remove ADS from copied files/directories.
Copy is also optimized for slower VPN. It uses smaller blocks, so progress is smooth and you can cancel operation instantly. Explorer and TC uses always large blocks, so progress is changing slowly and cancel is unresponsible.
Copy files or directories with ADS to disk not supporting ADS (e.g. FAT32 flash disk). Salamander asks if you want to continue and shows list of streams which will be lost. Explorer asks if you want to copy without properties. TC copies quietly without streams (it loses data without any warning).
Note: Altap Salamander, Windows Explorer, and Total Commander were tested with default settings.
Cloud Storage Services support
Change Drive Menu and Drive Bar newly contain items for most popular Cloud Storage Services. Currently we have supported Google Drive, Dropbox, and Microsoft SkyDrive.
Google Drive icon overlay handler crashed when called from two threads simultaneously (for left and right panel), so we have added synchronization. We use this handler only for files/folders located in Google Drive folder (it is relatively slow).
Fixed getting of location of Microsoft SkyDrive local folder on Windows 8.1. Better displaying of files which are available online-only (they were hidden together with hidden and system files).
Language translations
New language versions: Dutch, French, Russian, Simplified Chinese, and Slovak. Note: Dutch and French versions are not completely translated.
Existing language versions: English, Czech, German, Hungarian, Romanian, and Spanish.
All language versions were changed to work well with any DPI user chooses (see Control Panel: Adjust font size). Many dialogs and their controls were enlarged to prevent clipping of contained texts.
Other changes
When Salamander is started "As Administrator", it displays "(Administrator)" in main window title just after version.
Shift+F3: focused file name is selected in Windows Explorer window.
Completely revamped bug reporting system with minidump support and option to upload report to Altap server.
Commands Paste (Change Directory) and Change Directory (Shift+F7) trim double quotes (see forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?t=4160) and expand environment variables.
Create Directory: added removing of spaces from beginning and end of specified directory name.
Compare Directories: compare by content is faster (up to 100%) for large files (more than 5MB) on Windows Vista/7/8/8.1.
Drive Information: it has displayed incorrect used space and free space for volumes with enabled disk quota.
User Menu: reading icons for menu items in separate thread, so it does not delay start of Altap Salamander even if icons are placed on network drives or encrypted drives. Reading of these icons have higher priority than reading of icons for invisible parts of panels. Until reading of icons is finished, User Menu contains just simple icons but you can use it as usual. See http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=6753.
Copy dialog: if you have "Preserve owners and permissions" as default and start copying from FAT32 drive (e.g. USB flash disk), it is no longer trying to preserve owners and permissions (it is not supported of FAT32).
Copy/Move with checked "Overwrite older and skip other existing files without asking": speed up when used to copy/move from slow network disk (e.g. from virtual private network - VPN) to local disk.
Copy/Move dialog new option: Ignore alternate data streams (ADS). Use this option to remove unwanted ADS from copied files/directories. Use this option also when you know copied/moved files and directories do not contain ADS and you are copying/moving from slow network disk (e.g. from virtual private network - VPN), it can speed up operation drastically, detection of ADS for all copied/moved files/directories is very slow.
If filename contains ':' (impossible on Windows, but possible on unix), Salamander reports error instead of working with ADS (Alternate Data Stream).
Command line parameters -L, -R, and -A can contain paths to archives which can be expanded up to 520 chars (long path in archive on long path). Whole command line limit is 4096 chars now.
Fixed missing 'SystemDrive' environment variable that caused problems during starting various software (for example Visual Studio *.SLN) from Altap Salamander: http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?t=6929&p=26525.
Windows 8: fixed broken command Open With invoked from the context menu. http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=6730 and http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?t=6782.
Paths for left/right/active panel passed in command line parameters are expanded (environment variables), it is possible to use %APPDATA%, etc. http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=6943.
Fixed disabled look of "owner draw" buttons.
Flat progress bars look.
Using external packer/unpacker on path containing '$' failed due to erroneous expansion of initial directory for packer/unpacker.
Find window: double click and Enter key open focused file or directory (not all selected ones as in Explorer). You can still use Open command from right click context menu to open all selected files if you need it.
Fixed environment variables reload problem: http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6188.
Fixed wrong TortoiseSVN icon placement in Windows XP context menu: http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5627.
Fixed context menu icons on Windows 7 with DPI > 100%.
Fixed several problems reported in EAP versions.
x64 Windows and x86 Salamander: Drag&Drop and Copy&Paste from archives or file systems (e.g. FTP) to Explorer is working again (we have added 64-bit shell extension).
If viewer window is disabled, it does not accept any commands. It has fixed problem with ClipMate. See: http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=7346.
Automation plugin
Fixed bug that caused Altap Salamander to crash when executing Python scripts. See http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6934.
Some blocking operations (Form, Sleep, MsgBox etc.) can now be aborted.
Improved plugin stability when using Ruby scripting engine.
Check Version plugin
Plugin is not auto-unloaded when Save configuration on exit option is turned off and plugin configuration is changed. It is now possible to keep changed plugin settings.
Added link with option to ignore specified module version.
Checksum plugin
Support for SHA-512 (from SHA-2 family, based on FIPS 180-2 standard).
File Comparator plugin
If two compared files have the same bytes, File Comparator reports that they are identical. If it just cannot find any difference (all differences are ignored: encoding, white spaces, etc.), it reports only that files appear equal.
Fixed displaying of long text lines with differences (over 4681 chars).
Fixed opening File Comparator with fcremote.exe while Salamander window was minimized.
Small utility for starting File Comparator plugin from the command line, see plugins\filecomp\fcremote.exe.
FTP Client plugin
OpenSSL updated to version 1.0.1e.
Fixed problem with WEDOS / vsftpd server, see http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6667. We are using more compatible SSLv23_client_method() now.
Security: SSL 2.0 was disabled using OPENSSL_NO_SSL2.
SSL session reuse is now supported. All data connections are using SSL session from control connection. Faster and more secure solution, see http://scarybeastsecurity.blogspot.cz/2008/02/your-ftp-ssl-solution-is-really-secure.html.
Upload of empty file (zero bytes) over encrypted connection (SSL) has failed on some FTP servers because our client did not encrypt data-connection for empty files. We have fixed it to encrypt all data-connections. See http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=6931.
Registry Editor plugin
Registry Editor is using reg.exe instead of regedit.exe for Registry exports. The UAC escalation is not needed anymore.
TAR plugin
Don't touch OldGnuHeader if archive is not OldGnu format.
UnRAR plugin
Support for new RAR 5 format.

Veranderingen voor v3.0 beta 3 - v3.0 beta 4

New option in Unpack dialog: Delete archive after unpacking.
Waiting up to half second for finishing of reading of icons for user menu, it often prevents collision with reading of icons for panels and Salamander is starting more smoothly. Moreover icons for user menu which are read on background have higher priority than icons for invisible parts of panels.
Console version of WinRAR 5.0 supported.
Command line parameters -L, -R, and -A can contain paths to archives which can be expanded up to 520 chars (long path in archive on long path). Whole command line limit is 4096 chars now.
Fixed getting of location of Microsoft SkyDrive local folder on Windows 8.1. Better displaying of files which are available online-only (they were hidden together with hidden and system files).
Archivers Autoconfiguration dialog seems good also if some button is wider than others (e.g. in Hungarian or German language version).
Changing directory in panel to Sharepoint 2010 server share (UNC path) just reports error ERROR_BAD_NET_NAME (67). This UNC path was accessible only after opening in Explorer. Fixed, opening in Explorer is not needed.
Jump list didn't work with hot paths containing variables such as $[USERPROFILE]\Desktop, $(SalDir), etc.
Fixed rare error in reading of icons for panels (icons on network paths could not be always updated).
Fixed working on long paths (up to 260 chars) in archives placed on long paths (up to 260 chars) on disk. It works in hotpaths, jumplist, target of copy/move, Compare Directories, title of main window, and copying of path to clipboard.
Fixed scrolling with some Synaptics touchpads.
Checksum plugin
Support for SHA-512 (from SHA-2 family, based on FIPS 180-2 standard).
Hot keys Ctrl+C, Ctrl+M, Ctrl+1, Ctrl+2, and Ctrl+5 to copy CRC, MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, and SHA-512 hash to the Clipboard.
Fixed SHA hash names: SHA1 -> SHA-1, SHA256 -> SHA-256, etc.
File Comparator plugin
If two compared files have the same bytes, File Comparator reports that they are identical. If it just cannot find any difference (all differences are ignored: encoding, white spaces, etc.), it reports only that files appear equal.

Veranderingen voor v2.54 - v3.0 beta 3

Copy files on Windows 7 and later: we have added faster asynchronous algorithm for copying files to/from network. Its speed on our local GLAN network is 111 MB/s, conventional algorithm speed is 86 MB/s. It affects also moving of files in case you are not moving in scope of one volume (then it is just rename, not copy and delete). Asynchronous copy algorithm is also optimized for network drives accessible via VPN (Virtual Private Network). It uses smaller blocks (size depends on current copy speed), so progress is smoother and you can cancel operation instantly. If you experience any troubles with this algorithm, let us know and then you can disable it, see Configuration / General: Copy files: use faster asynchronous algorithm on network.
Copy files: when copy operation is interrupted (e.g. network is disconnected or you eject flash disk during copying), Salamander offers to retry copying (it continues where copy operation was interrupted, it's especially useful for long transfers via VPN or other network). Newly Salamander checks end of unfinished target file against source file to detect potential write errors, so retrying copy operation is much safer now. It checks for approx. 3 seconds (e.g. it's up to 90MB on my flash disk or up to 300MB on my network disk or up to 2MB on my VPN).
User Menu: reading icons for menu items in separate thread, so it does not delay start of Altap Salamander even if icons are placed on network drives or encrypted drives. Until reading of icons is finished, User Menu contains just simple icons but you can use it as usual. See http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=6753
Support for progress bars in Windows 7 and 8 taskbar buttons.
Hot paths are available in Altap Salamander jump list (Windows 7+ feature).
Copy dialog: if you have "Preserve owners and permissions" as default and start copying from FAT32 drive (e.g. USB flash disk), it is no longer trying to preserve owners and permissions (it is not supported of FAT32).
If filename contains ':' (impossible on Windows, but possible on unix), Salamander reports error instead of working with ADS (Alternate Data Stream).
FTP: Upload of empty file (zero bytes) over encrypted connection (SSL) has failed on some FTP servers because our client did not encrypt data-connection for empty files. We have fixed it to encrypt all data-connections. See http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=6931
Fixed missing 'SystemDrive' environment variable that caused problems during starting various software (for example Visual Studio *.SLN) from Altap Salamander: http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?t=6929&p=26525
Windows 8: fixed broken command Open With invoked from the context menu. http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=6730 and http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?t=6782
Paths for left/right/active panel passed in command line parameters are expanded (environment variables), it is possible to use %APPDATA%, etc. http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=6943
Fixed disabled look of "owner draw" buttons.
Flat progress bars look.
Compare Directories: compare by content is faster (up to 100%) for large files (more than 5MB) on Vista+.
WinSCP bug fix: Wrong set of transfer settings was available for uploads and downloads http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=6723 and http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6928
Automation: fixed bug that caused Altap Salamander to crash when executing Python scripts. See http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6934
Automation: some blocking operations (Form, Sleep, MsgBox etc.) can now be aborted
Automation: improved plugin stability when using Ruby scripting engine

Veranderingen voor v2.53 Beta 1 - v2.53 Beta 2

List of most important changes in Altap Salamander 2.53 beta 2:
Completed support for language localizations. For now intaller package contains English, Czech, and German language packs. Translation into other languages is possible using Altap Translator, free utility availabe on Altap Salamander Support Forum.
We would like to thank all of you who worked hard on German and Czech translations, particularly to Thomas Kelso (Thomas), Dirk Bornhütter (Nighthawk), Thomas Pagels (Silbereis), Thomas Wölk (Beta), and Gtein.
FAT32 file size limit was wrong: 4GB minus 2 bytes instead of 4GB minus 1 byte. http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?t=3934
Preserving dates and times of directories when moving directories in scope of one drive was not working on some network drives (e.g. Samba on Linux).
Drag&drop in panel with WinSCP connection (copy or move files/directories in scope of one server) had wrong default drop effect: Copy instead of Move.
Thumbnails in panel were sometimes not displayed until manual Refresh (Ctrl+R) when Salamander was started in Thumbnails view mode, when changing thumbnail size with Ctrl+mouse wheel, or after switching view mode in panel from Tiles (Alt+6) to Thumbnails (Alt+5). http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?t=3563
Copy&Paste, Drag&Drop, Copy (F5), Delete (F8), and Calculate Occupied Space (Alt+F10) in archive opened in panel: when some files from archive were changed, archive update is offered before using these commands (in previous versions commands worked directly with archive, changed files were ignored).
When one archive was opened in both panels, some file was changed, and then archive was closed without updating, View command in second panel still showed changed version of the file (file was not unpacked from archive again after aborted archive update).
Changing directory in panel using command line paratemers -L, -R, and -A failed when user provides path to a file. Newly this file is focused in panel as expected. http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?t=3816
Altap Translator

7-Zip plugin
When moving archive file to itself or packing archive file to itself with selected "deleting files from disk after packing", the archive file was deleted after packing. http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?t=3859
Updating solid archives is now supported - don't give confusing error
Out of memory mbox was shown in the wrong thread
Prevent crash when packing fails for an unknown reason
Don't say "archive was not created" when actually updating existing one

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.

New UnCHM plugin:
Extractor of Microsoft Compiled HTML Help archives (files with .CHM extension).
Use the Unpack command (Alt+F6) to extract .CHM archives until we will support Ctrl+PgDn to open non-associated archive in panel.
Several plugins patched:
All plugins now accepting the Always on Top option from Altap Salamander main window.
Horizontal scrolling supported using Shift+Mouse Wheel or mouse wheel tilt.
File Comparator plugin:
New option "Auto-Copy Selection to Clipboard".
It is possible to drag and drop file names into edit boxes in the Compare Files dialog box.
Added support (by default ON) for converting Unicode text to Normalized Form C (i.e. composite characters converted to precomposed ones if such exist). Normaliz.dll, if present, is used for this. 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:
New Password Manager used to store passwords in Windows Registry. Option to use Master Password and strong AES-256 encryption.
Support for TLS FTP (also known as FTPS or FTPES with AUTH TLS). Needs libraries libssl32.dll and libeay32.dll from OpenSSL.org. There are two new options in Connect to FTP Server > Advanced: "Encrypt control connection with TLS/SSL" and "Encrypt data connections (file transfers and directory listings) with TLS/SSL".
Support for ZLIB compression (MODE Z). New option in Configuration > Defaults and Connect to FTP Server > Advanced: "Compress data transfers if server supports compression (MODE Z)"
Ctrl+Right Click on edit line with password (Connect or Proxy dialog box) would reveal the password.
Listing cache and cache of viewed file are deleted when you close all FTP connections to the server.
7-ZIP plugin:
Updated to 7z 4.65 of 02/03/2009
Better encrypted archives handling.
Improved error handling while extracting or testing corrupted archives.
TAR plugin:
Added support for Debian packages .DEB
GZIP: files longer than 4GB before compression complained about premature EOF.
GZIP: if original file name contains ':', it is replaced with '_'.
Encrypt & Decrypt plugin:
Fixed random deadlock while closing window Create a Key.
Eroiica plugin:
Added support for Microsoft Print System Documents *.XPS (actually a ZIP file w/ a bunch of XML, JPG thumbnails and PNG rasters).
Added new items in the File menu: Focus, Select/Unselect, Delete.
Added new toolbar item: Select/Unselect.
Fixed memory leak on every ZIP-based document (OpenOffice, MS Office 2k7, XPS).
Thumbnail extraction from ZIP-based document was too much memory-hungry.
WinSCP plugin:
Update details: http://winscp.net/eng/docs/salamander_history#1.6.2
Renamer plugin:
Configuration: command can contain variables as $(SalDir) or environment variables for better Salamander portability.
Added stripping of diacritics
Registry Editor plugin:
Configuration: command can contain variables as $(SalDir) or environment variables for better Salamander portability.
UnISO plugin:
Added support for Apple Hierachical File System Plus (HFS+): Hybrid UDF/HFS+, ISO/HFS+, ISO/UDF/HFS+ CD/DVD images, Apple disk image with HFS+ partition, Apple disk image with HFS partition with HFS+ partition wrapped inside, and Single HFS+ partition image.
Better "normalization" of names (removed trailing spaces, etc.)
Symbolic links marked as links to have overlay icons.
Supported ADC compression.
DMG: Extract only HFS/HFS+ partition to avoid dealing with EFI File System.
DMG: Better detection of uncompressed DMG, was misinterpreted as non-DMG disk image
DMG: HFS+: Pure HFS partition with wrapped HFS+ properly detected.
DMG: AES128-encrypted and BZIP2-compressed DMG files properly detected and rejected.
Embedded BootDisk images no longer have .img suffix but .ima, because our UnFAT plugin uses .ima and not .img (which is associated to UnISO).
Fixed detection of Joliet extension
PictView plugin:
Digital camera raw images now also get auto-rotated in the viewer (the change affects at least some DNG, CR2, NEF and ORF files).
Network plugin:
New options in plugin configuration: "Show administrative shares", "Show items from My Network Places at top level directory", "Show network computers at top level directory", "Scan network on start of Salamander".
Fixed network computers enumeration, all computers are visible.
DB Viewer plugin:
New menu File > Other Files.
Added UTF8 and UTF16 parsers.
Improved heuristics for detecting separator in CSV.
Multimedia Viewer plugin:
Fixed crash on W9X on UTF16 mp3 tags.
Fixed some mem leaks on UTF8 and UTF16 mp3 tags.
MP3, OGG: better support for UTF8 (MP3, OGG) and UTF16 (MP3).
