Vrijdag is versie 4.0 bèta 18 van NewsLeecher verschenen. Met dit programma is het mogelijk om op een eenvoudige manier bestanden uit nieuwsgroepen te downloaden. Het programma ondersteunt nzb-bestanden, beschikt over een zogeheten super search, en kan gedownloade bestanden automatisch op integriteit en volledigheid controleren en vervolgens zelfstandig uitpakken. Nieuw in deze release is de volledige herziene SuperSearch, die nu een retentie heeft van maar liefst 850 dagen. Het volledige changelog van deze release ziet er als volgt uit:
Note:
This beta release connects to a brand new, and much improved, SuperSearch service engine. The new engine currently runs with 850 days of retention in the General category and more than 300 days of retention in the Erotica category, including all the alt.binaries.pictures* groups.
Just like the old engine, the new engine supports true wildcard searching, and still uses the same Google-like syntax for searching. Note that advanced search features, such as specific Poster / Group searching haven't been enabled yet.
Also, because the engine is brand new, it might contain bugs which will be corrected as fast as possible.
New feature:Improved features:
- NewsLeecher will now mark collections as 'Sampled' instead of 'Downloaded', if less than half of the articles in the collection have been downloaded. Note that this will only apply for articles downloaded with NewsLeecher v4.0 Beta 18 and newer releases.
Fixed bug:
- Changed behaviour of the Ctrl+U shortcut, so pressing the shortcut keys once, will deactivate active groups, and pressing it twice in a row, will unload groups from memory.
- NewsLeecher will now include articles with the following subject patterns into collections: *.t##, *.u##, *.v##, *.w##, *.x##, *.y## and *.z##.
- When using the new "Update Latest [####] Headers" feature, and pressing cancel on the update dialog, NewsLeecher didn't cancel the update as it should.
