WHAT'S NEW in AF - The Archive Folder
====================================
(New = +, Bugfix = *, Changed = #)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
New in version 0.32:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ Archiver Registry is a PM frontend for editing the ARCHIVER.BB2 file.
See BETA.TXT and INSTALL.TXT for more information.
+ Better thread management. AF now keeps track of running threads and
indicates when a background thread is running by a red light on the
status bar. If the user closes AF while there are still background jobs
he/she is prompted to wait or continue shutting down.
# Changed the layout of the status bar.
* The tabbed dialog notebook style was only used under Warp 4 beta not GA.
* Under Warp 4 GA the temporary directory wasn't get deleted properly.
Please let me know if it still happens.
* The "Delete" context menu option had disappeared in the Danish version.
