-- The unabridged history of dirhtml releases --
???:	Version 4.87 released Portuguese (Brazilian) translation added Significantly rearranged the dirhtml.zip file and the folder organization of the installable version Note: Scripts are now located in a "Scripts" subfolder.  Some previously saved .init files will need to be updated to reflect this, particularly framed build .init files. Links in files built without sizes or dates now have the &nbsp; after the filename, outside the <a></a>, instead of inside the link New variable: %%RANDOM_COLOR% Variables now work in /PRE_FNAME_FILE sections Unqualified or relative %%FILE...% variables are now searched for first in the currently searched folder, then in the folder the script being used is located in. Note: In earlier dirhtml versions, unqualified %%FILE...% includes would search the dirhtml.exe folder if the file isn't found in the searched folder Unqualified file references in /FILE_MATCH... sections load files from the same folder as the script Added new feedback item for "Column sorting..." and a related xml-definable language text entry Pressing "Cancel" during a column sort will terminate the current build with a minimum of delay Column sorting is skipped for random sorts %%RELATIVE_FOLDER variables work in /FILE_HREF_APPEND sections New variable: ~~FILE...~, which is similar to %%FILE...%, but supports variables
8/23/11:	Version 4.861 released Scripts are correctly located if the folder being searched is a network address and the script has a relative file location. Folders can be dropped onto the "Folders, Files" page, which will replace the existing selected folder.   A successful folder drop will also add the folder to the drop-down list. Previously added date modified strings are restored when the program is restarted
7/2/11:	Version 4.86 released Added a dialog that gives the option of exploring batch/vbs files after they are created Moved /FILE_MATCHES_... script sections to a new help page Added a NO_CODE-DIRHTML option for file matches, which enables code insertion to be skipped for specific matching file types Added folder table, anchor table, and file anchor row equivalents of /FILE_MATCHES... sections Fixed a /FILE_MATCHES... bug exemplified by /*.*|*.*|*.*, which would triple the inserted code for all files
5/28/11:	Spanish translation added
3/11/11:	Version 4.857 released The "Restore english defaults" button always has a tooltip in english Limiting links by file size is now possible %%FILE_SIZES% variable added Dutch translation added
2/11/11:	Version 4.8561 released "Process files in the root folder..." is working correctly when the folder uses a relative (e.g. drive-less) referernce %%DAY% variables are working correctly in /START sections Date Modified dates are being parsed correctly; When any date is unparsable, all Date Modified settings are ignored
1/24/11:	Version 4.856 released German translation added, french translation updated New xml sections added to all xml files reflecting new or changed user interface items. Miscellaneous page reformatted Added help text to static items on the Files, Folder page Folder as well as files have fully qualified links when the setting is selected /FILE_MATCHES_INSIDE_A sections are working correctly All /FILE_MATCHES sections support %%F, %%F_PATH, %%NO_EXT_FNAME% and %%RELATIVE_PATH variables /FILE_MATCHES_INSIDE_A and /FILE_MATCHES_BEFORE_A no longer automatically insert a space before the html code %%F_PATH_2SLASH%, %%2SLASHDIR%, %%2FSLASHDIR% and %%F_PATH use fully qualified file paths if "Fully qualified links" is selected
12/16/10:	Version 4.855 released %%ROOT_FOLDER% variables work in /HEAD script sections (which is useful for linking to style sheets in the root folder in a many file build) When the default root anchor word is blank, no anchor will be generated for the root folder and no row will be generated for the root in the file table The initial display font is slightly larger Non-ANSI characters are translated with %C2 prefixes for UTF builds (for example ¢ would be translated to %C2%A2 instead of %A2).   This was done primarily to achieve compatibility with Apache Lucene. /FILE_PREFIX is reset to blank when an .init file is opened %%MONTH_NUM% variable added Added a new help page that lists all script sections and variables
10/6/10:	Version 4.854 released Listed files can be limited by date modified %%DATE_MODIFIED% variable added
8/19/10:	The three main buttons are slightly larger Bug fixed: html <title>'s are now correct when building a frameset or "One file per folder" recursively when the page <title> is set to "Relative path" "One file per folder" builds now respect the "Force folder table and parent links" setting - NOTE: This may affect some existing builds
8/17/10:	Russian translation updated
7/24/10:	Version 4.853 released Network shares no longer need to be mapped to a drive letter and can take the form \\server\folder
5/24/10:	Version 4.852 released Generated batch files have improved, portable file references that use old-style 8.3 paths (when available) When a batch file is created, a functionally identical unicode .vbs file is also created File matches are not cumulative (e.g. if the matching.txt file has /*.* and /*.*, only the first html code will be used) New variable: %%FNAME%, which inserts the current filename without character code translation Fixed a bug that caused max file columns to not be adjusted for items in the last folder subsection under certain (rare) conditions %%TOTAL_FILE_SIZE% adds the user-defined "K" word, if appropriate Shortcuts (.LNK files) are no longer automatically skipped New variables that adjust various <tr>'s:/ANCHORS_WORD_TR, /FOLDERS_WORD_TR, /FILES_WORD_TR, /ANCHORS_FOLDERS_FILES_WORD_TR, /ANCHOR_TR, /SIZEDATE_TR Filenames are sorted by html <title> when <title>'s are shown in place of filenames Name/size/date <tr>'s can be suppressed Additional international number formats added Clicking F2 sets the focus to "Filenames Include" on the "Folders, Files" page %%DIR and %%FOLDER variables can be used as part of the root anchor word Bug fixed: &'s in folders no longer result in invalid links when fully qualified links are generated Fixed a bug that would attempt to write files in folders relative to the root folder instead of the app location
4/10/10:	Version 4.851 released Dates can have no field separator ANCHOR and /ANCHOR_BEFORE script sections can include %%COLUMNS% variables The 24-hour time option has been replaced with a drop-down list New script sections (intended to be used in conjunction with javascript/perl/php) added: /DATE_BEFORE_TEXT, /DATE_AFTER_TEXT, /TIME_BEFORE_TEXT, /TIME_AFTER_TEXT A Notepad++ dirhtml keywords text file has been added (for those who already have a UserDefinedLang.xml file or prefer to enter the keywords manually) New variables: %%ANCHOR_TOTAL_SIZE%, %%ANCHOR_TOTAL_FILES%, which allow statistics to be shown for anchors New sections: /ANCHOR_A, /FOLDER_A, which allow links in their respective tables to be uniquely styled without cloning entire table css's (previously, the easiest way to accomplish this was to have non-named table css and define just anchor-table TD A {} & etc.) Fixed a bug that would cause the program to hang if /ANCHOR_BEFORE was defined and only one matching file was found Fixed a very serious unicode bug which prevented scripts from being read if the script or dirhtml.exe was in a non-ANSI pathname
3/6/10:	Version 4.85 released Dirhtml pages now have individual icons Italian translation added .init/.ini and generated html files no longer use use unix-style line markers The file table header is suppressed if "suppress headers" is selected Fixed an issue relating to saving/restoring fonts New script sections added which enable customizable per file-type links: /FILE_MATCHES_TD, /FILE_MATCHES_A, /FILE_MATCHES_BEFORE_A, /FILE_MATCHES_INSIDE_A

12/26/04:	Version 4.6 released dialog box background images are user selectable changed the DOCTYPE from strict to transitional when "XHTML compliant output" is selected (for IE compatibility) fine tuned the way non breaking spaces are added to file sizes parent folder links are now always supressed in the root folder for multi-file recursive builds
10/16/04:	Changed the dialog box background bitmap updated the help file prefixed "ID" to all id= links, so folder anchors that start with numbers validate using strict XHTML stripped name=... from anchor id's.

2/26/04:	Version 4.58 released Made subtle improvements to the help file Uses '.' instead of ',' for file size commas when 'Insert Commas Into File Sizes' and 'European Style Dates' are selected Added /PRE_FNAME_FILE and related custom html file options Fixed a lingering folder anchor bug Root folder is never skipped when building a framed site.

9/13/01:	Version 4.3 released Added an option to use the <TITLE> section of .html, .shtml and .htm files instead of their filenames for link text. Note that if you select this option and process a lot of html files, you can expect it to take longer to build as dirhtml needs to read the contents of each file, though I have tried hard to make it as efficient as possible. This option should make dirhtml handier for site maps.
