Vandaag is de tweede bètarelease van versie 3.9 uitgekomen. NewsLeecher is een programma met uitgebreide mogelijkheden om binaire bestanden uit nieuwsgroepen te downloaden. Nieuw in versie 3.9 is een functie met de naam Repair'n'Extract, waarmee het mogelijk is om artikelen op Usenet te verifiëren, te repareren en volledig automatisch uit te pakken. Deze tweede bètarelease bevat voornamelijk veranderingen en verbeteringen met bertekking tot Repair'n'Extract, maar het volledige changelog ziet er als volgt uit:
Changes in version 3.9 beta 2:[break]
- All the search filters inside NewsLeecher have been replaced with new ones. The search filter syntax is now the same as the syntax used by SuperSearch, which means that it's possible to exclude specific words, etc.. Help buttons next to the search filters have also been added.
- Added a new option to cancel all 'paused' articles in the transfer queue, when NewsLeecher is closed down. The option can be accessed from the transfer queue toolbars 'cancel' submenu.
- (RnE) Added an option to cleanup the transfer queue for unneeded PAR2 Set articles when the Set has been successfully processed. Option can be accessed from: "Options -> Repair'n'Extract -> Delete Unneeded Articles from Queue"
- (RnE) When using the Repair'n'Extract "Find in SuperSearch" feature, NewsLeecher used to search the current category and set the max-days to "30". This has been changed so the search category is auto-set to "General", and the max-days is set to the highest possible days value (currently "120").
- Lots of users pressed the cancel buttons on the queue toolbar by mistake, so the queues "Cancel All" / "Cancel Paused" and "Cancel Selected" buttons have now been moved to a submenu on the queue toolbar.
- Fixed a bug where the Download Pausing Filter was ignored when importing articles to the transfer queue from NZB files.
- (RnE) Fixed a Repair'n'Extract bug where the RAR unpacking would enter a repeated loop if one or more of the RAR archives were corrupt or password protected.
- (RnE) Fixed a bug where NewsLeecher would strip the first subject character when using the Repair'n'Extract "Find in SuperSearch" feature.
- (RnE) Repair'n'Extract is now automatically paused (disabled) if there's too little diskspace for auto unpacking archives.
