Software update: DC++ 0.261

Yesterday version 0.261 of the P2P program DC++ was released. 0.26 was also released on the same day, but it contained a bug that caused the software to crash. The piece of compiled code can share files with other users over the Direct Connect network. Below is the list of changes of both versions:

Changes:

• 0.261 2003-07-15
  • Fixed user list problems (dc++ was too fast for nmdch)
  • Fixed a queue frame crash
• 0.26 2003-07-15
  • Search for alternates now sets file type as well (and should work correctly with sizes…)
  • Search now returns results for exact size matches on at least/most searches
  • Some minor fixes
  • Fixed a crash on adding items to the queue
  • Progress bar now has different color for selected items
  • Added notification for which file was not available for downloading
  • Added H: to main window status bar
  • Hub developers: Added section about $Supports scheme for client-hub communication to extensions.txt that dc++/dch++ will (probably) use to extend the protocol (if it ever happens =).
  • Default hub list now points to one that works
  • Minor code cleanups
  • M:5 in the <++ tag means socks5 mode (this should have worked since 0.20...)
  • If no nick is set the settings dialog pops up at startup (to help newbies…)
  • Added a smarter queue tree display, to make it less deep
  • Fixed downloading of files with ? and
  • in name
  • Fixed downloading of filelists from users with in name
  • ADLSearch: Added Break on first option and special ‘discard’ target (see help) (by henrik as usual)
  • Added time left and speed columns to transfer window
  • Add to favorite user available from search frame
  • <++ tag is now shown in a separate column in the hub frame
  • Different tab types are now colored differently (some day I might actually make the colors configurable…)
  • Tabs are back at using the system menu font instead of the custom one
  • Added tab completition in hub frame, turn it off in advanced settings to get old tab behavior (it can also be used as a user search…)
  • Added move up/down controls to favorite hubs
  • Added options to open the finished downloads and favorite hubs window at startup
  • Fixed a bug where bad results were being given when searching for directories

[break]It is also possible to use the source files make your own version.
