Alex Birj heeft enkele dagen geleden alweer versie 1.7.1 van Usenet Explorer uitgebracht. Met dit dit programma kunnen bestanden van Usenet worden gedownload. Er is ondersteuning voor meerdere servers en threads, nzb-bestanden, virtuele groepen en uitgebreide filtermogelijkheden. In deze release is de mogelijkheid toegevoegd om sommige bestanden te bekijken, zoals tekst- en nfo-bestanden. Het volledige changelog laat de volgende veranderingen zien:
Changes in version 1.7.1 -[break]De volgende downloads zijn beschikbaar:
- added option to show content of certain file types like *.nfo, *.txt etc. inline in artilce views (the attachment icon with the file name is still preserved). what files to show is defined in "properties->articles->show attachments inline" (boolean wildmat), the color can be redefined in "edit menu->fonts&colors, (inline)".
- added newspro-like console (popular user request) to show a raw view reflecting download of every part which is useful to see how all servers behave without looking into active header properties.
- in article views replies are shown in a different color which can be changed in "edit menu->fonts&colors, (reply)".
- the matches of a pattern like "new"*"song" will also include "new song" so in such a case the " double quote special character rule (matching one or more space characters) will be applied rather intuitively than literally.
- fixed broken handling of parentheses in boolean wildmats.
- at least one non-compliant server doesn't return the number of lines in xover despite the xover command specification, now such malformed output is accepted as well.
