Gpsoftware heeft enkele dagen geleden zijn bestandsmanager Directory Opus van een update naar versie 9.1.1.5 voorzien. Het programma is vergelijkbaar met Total Commander, maar dan veel uitgebreider. Directory Opus kent zijn oorsprong op de Commodore Amiga, waar het in het begin van de jaren negentig ongekend populair was. In 1994 is ontwikkelaar Jonathan Potter samen gaan werken met Greg Perry en wordt het programma sindsdien door Gpsoftware uitgegeven.
Directory Opus is veelzijdig en extreem configureerbaar, en daarin zit hem meteen ook het probleem, want het programma kan zeker voor beginnende gebruikers wat complex overkomen. Directory Opus werkt op Windows 2000, XP en Vista en is beschikbaar in een 32bits- en 64bits-versie. Het programma kan maar liefst zestig dagen worden getest, daarna zal een licentie van omgerekend 51 euro moeten worden aangeschaft. Meer informatie over Directory Opus 9 kan in deze semi-officiële handleiding worden gevonden. Hieronder is te vinden wat er allemaal sinds de vorige vermelding in de Meuktracker in het programma veranderd is:
Directory Opus version 9.1.1.5:Directory Opus version 9.1.1.4:
- Fixed problem with File Collections introduced in 9.1.1.4 which made it impossible to create new collections.
- Fixed some duplicated hotkeys in the default Go menu; updated labels to the modern Vista forms (English version only -- 'Computer' instead of 'My Computer', etc.).
- Added better error reporting to the Configuration Backup function.
- Creating a shortcut to a File Collection now sets the icon for the new shortcut correctly.
Directory Opus version 9.1.1.3:
- Fixed problem with Advanced Filters where the value of a Size clause would not be correctly saved in some cases.
- Fixed problem where the drag/drop menu for folders dragged from the tree with the right mouse button would not include all context menu items in some cases.
- It is now possible to override the Use internal picture viewer option on a per-filetype basis by configuring the dblclk event.
- Fixed a problem where .IFF files would always be identified as Amiga IFF on double-click even if they weren’t.
- Drag and drop from the third-party Internet Download Manager program now works.
- Fixed range selection issue in List and other Icon modes (e.g. when a key has been pressed to jump to the first file beginning with that letter, pressing Shift-End or Shift-Home now selects the correct range.)

- Fixed rendering glitch with the ‘auto-select previous folder’ option with long folder names in Thumbnails mode
- Fixed rendering glitch in Theme dialog when theme names contain descenders (j, y, etc)

- The Set Description for files within folders option in the Set Description dialog now works.

- Fixed a problem in MultiView plugin that could cause a crash when viewing files in zip files or on FTP sites
- Copy MAKELINK now supports the AS argument to specify the name of the new link
- Fixed crash in line rename if the string was deleted completely and then enter pressed.
- Fixed problem with FTP passwords being stored unencrypted in tab groups
- Fixed problem with FTP passwords being displayed in tab tooltip for a locked tab
- Fixed rendering issue with glass status bars
- Updated ActiveX plugin
Directory Opus version 9.1.1.2:
- Fixed crash that could be caused by reading folders containing certain types of TTF fonts with the Description / Font name column on
- Fixed problem viewing partially corrupted jpeg files (will now try to display as much as possible of the file)
- A command that combines Select ALLFILES with Copy ZIP now correctly includes all files in the folder – previously the first file would be omitted.

- FTP: Fix for Linksys NAS server returning illegal 451 error for remove directory command
[break]De volgende downloads zijn beschikbaar:
