Enkele dagen geleden heeft Enriva Development versie 3.20 van Magellan Explorer uitgebracht. Dit is een bestandsbeheerprogramma met twee schermen, zoals we dat ook kennen van bijvoorbeeld Total Commander. Het uiterlijk kan ook worden aangepast zodat het er als de Windows Explorer uitziet. Onder de vele features treffen we kopiëren in de achtergrond (nooit meer wachten!), een ingebouwde viewer voor een groot aantal bestandsformaten, archiefbestanden kunnen als normale bestanden of folders worden benaderd, en is er een ingebouwde ftp-client. Meer informatie kan op deze pagina gevonden worden. Het changelog van deze versie laat de volgende veranderingen zien:
Complete list of changes in 3.20:[break]
- Enabled folder customize on My Computer folder also
- Added auto save of folder layout, can be disabled in Folder Window prefs. Explicitly saved folders override it ofcourse.
- Tip of the Day at startup
- Connect status dialog to make it more clear what's happening during connect as well as make it easier to abort connects. A 'Retry now' button is also available to retry immediately rather than waiting.
- Added option to display filename extension in Ext column instead of in Name column. Configurable from the general tab in folder window preferences.
- Option to auto start with windows is now saved in current user instead of local machine registry
- Updated help with description of the dynamic Quick Bar feature
- Preserve directory timestamps when copying (WinNT/2000/XP/2003 only)
- Hotkeys can now be assigned to the ALT key also
- Changed default drag&drop behavior to match Windows Explorer. Default is move within same drive, copy when dragging to a different drive. The option is configurable, and the previous two options (copy or move) remain.
- By popular request the favorites are back in My Computer (option to turn off in Misc|Misc prefs)
- Label box now displays "(filtered)" after volume label when folder contents are filtered
- Updated FAQ section in the manual with all the FAQ entries from the web site
- Update drivebar asynchronously when activating window. Speeds up window activation to "normal" speeds.

- Right click on main toolbar buttons with toolbar at top of window fixed
- Show correct titlebar text on startup (

- Fixed a warning message when trying to assign a hotkey that was already assigned to another tool
- Correctly update title bar and status bar when toggling active folder window with the keyboard (TAB or space)
- Fixed preservation of file description when renaming a file with "one click rename" (and not the rename tool)
- When copying empty folders from an FTP site make sure they're created locally
- Fixed an FTP bug in the folder delete code causing inability to delete folders on the root of the drive
- Correctly parse description files containing lines with only whitespace

- Plugged a small memory leak causing file descriptor leakage when doubleclicking e.g. gzip archives
- Fixed an FTP bug where a new connection would be opened after changing permission of files (by chmod)
