What's new

Since 0.4.2:

Fixed a bug with the load sheet not closing properly.
You can now drag whole directories onto the group list or file list to add the files + in them to Liaison.
Drag-and-Drop of promised files works.
The table view no longer scrolls to the top of the list after you remove files.
You can drag files from Liaison to the finder now.
The shared inspector now updates when you make other windows key.
No longer cache icon information. This slows everything down a tiny bit, but saves + a huge amount of memory.
The icon that signifies an unlocatable file now updates automatically.

+ +

Since 0.4.1:

Added help.
Project split up for future open source plans.
A lot of old code culled.
You can unsort your file list by clicking on the header.
Editing files now works consistently with the sort and search.
Fixed many bugs where the file selection would change unexpectedly.
Fixed bugs with groups being assigned incorrectly.
Added contextual menus to the file and group panels.
Fixed dimming of menus and toolbars with two exceptions: the "Open" and + "Show in Finder" menu items don't work properly when the group list is the + first responder.

+ +

Since 0.4:

Many GUI fixes and enhancements.
Major speed improvements for loading large amounts of files at a time.

+ +

Since 0.3.3a:

The file database has been ripped to shreds and rewritten from scratch. The new one + is much more extensible and faster overall.
Application is now prebound for faster launch times.
Network code has been rewritten to take advantage of the new file database, and is + much more connection friendly now for persistant connections.
Loading files into your library should be substantially faster. However, you cannot + load more than about one thousand at a time.
File selection is saved as you navigate through groups, if possible.
The zoom box works properly (or mostly properly) everywhere.
Preliminary AppleScript support has been added. It's not very useful, but it's there.
You are no longer able to group remote file stores within an over-all "Rendezvous" + group.
Some minor fixes for Panther.
BUG: The "Add Files to Library" menu item doesn't get properly dimmed.

+ +

What's new since 0.3.2a:

Application starts again.

+ +

Since 0.3.1a:

Fix date sorts.
Make string searches case insensitive.
Add a plugin architecture for the file browser and inspector.
Add a Find panel stub so I can work out the interface.
You can set the file's icon in the inspector now - simply drag an image + file (not a .icns file!) onto the file's icon in the file inspector.
You can copy a file's icon by dragging it from the icon in the file + inspector to a folder. Note: files are saved as TIFF documents, with one + layer per icon size (so layer 1 is 128x128, layer 2 is 32x32, layer 3 is + 16,16) -- Thanx Cocoa!
If a file change can't happen, a sheet is displayed.

+ +

Since 0.3a:

You can set or delete HFS file creator codes via the inspector.
Add columns for last modified time, creation time, and file size.
Column sizes and order in the file list are remembered now.
Added a "view options" dialog box, under the view menu. You can use + this to set which columns are displayed.
The delete key and the "Delete" item under the "Edit" menu work now.
If you have an editable group selected, adding files will also add them + to the current group. Otherwise the files are just dumped in the library.
Fix network code. I don't know how long it's been broken, but it works + again as well as it did the last time I checked, perhaps better.
Display scroll bars when the group list is longer than the view.
When reloading a file in the download panel, don't create a new status + view, just re-use the old one.
If the hostname changes you can still download files properly.

+ +

Since 0.2.1a:

Use aliases instead of paths as the database key. Files can now be + renamed without being lost to Liaison. +
+ WARNING: This means + you have to delete your old library. You can accomplish this by deleting the + files in ~/Library/Liaison/. You must do this for Liaison to function + properly. Hopefully this shouldn't happen again.
Initialize the local group name if there's no existing library.
Add a little "!" icon for files that can't be located.
Edits in the file table and the inspector are now written to disk.

+ +

Since 0.2a:

Editing a group doesn't clear the icon anymore.
Only draw the vertical grid; since we have alterntating row colors, we + don't need the horizontal grid.
File selection is saved between searches in the toolbar and sorts (from + clicking on the table header).
Empty groups are removed from the remote group list.
Add a menu item under the help menu to go to Liaison's web site.
Clear selection when group is changed.

+ +

Since 0.1.3a:

File list is editable now. Changes still aren't written to disk.
Added a preference to put remote hosts under a rendezvous group, + or as a top-level group. By default, remote stores aren't displayed + under a rendezvous group.
File list has striped rows.
File extension is now relegated soley to the "type" column. The other + way just doesn't make sense.
"Reveal in Finder" tool bar icon.
Added "Get Info" under the file menu. This duplicates the "Inspector" menu + under the window menu.

+ +

Since 0.1.2a:

A few new toolbar icons.
HFS type/creator codes are visible on remote hosts.
Writer threads are cleaned up properly.
The hooks for the Edit menu actions are in.
Remote group browsing works again.

+ +

Since 0.1.1a:

File copying works again.

+ +

Since 0.1a:

I have an icon! (However, I do not have Photoshop skillz).
Host name changes now update across the network. + (Actually, this needs work. I doubt a file copy will work without + restarting.)
Fixed a bug with the preferences always thinking the hostname had + changed.

+ + -- cgit v1.2.3
