A new version of DiskMaster2 is available on OS4Depot.

OS4Depot DiskMaster2

List of change for version 2.10Beta:

Beta10

- The alternative color-set for the commands is no longer saved.
- Removed the "*" from the paths of the default config.
- Changed the appearance of "Delete" in the default config.
- Changed the CON: windows in the default config from 640x180 to 800x200.
- Re-arranged the default command-window commands a bit.
- New "Help" entry in default main menu displays "PROGDIR:DiskMaster2.guide".
- Before going a level up or down the file-pattern is cleared now.

- Fix: dir-sizes were added to the byte-count of files - "TitleFormat" "%A".
- Fix: A test-line broke the detection of "0" from the numeric keypad.
- Fix: pattern-matching was not working with the new ExamineDir() dir-scanner.
- Fix: reset by pressing enter in the string.gadget of the command-window
did not work in 2.7b9.
- Added a call to ClearScreen() after opening a new screen as workaround for
the problem that P96 does seem to do so itself by default.

- New feature: when pressing an alpha-numeric key for which no keyboard-command
is defined the lister will jump to the first file which name
begins with the character representing that key.
- New feature: Implemented parent-by-click-on-border (05.30).
- Re-implemented SHIFT-select/deselect for ListBrowser.gadget.

Now I would need a compatible Browser to donate with PayPal to these good programs and renew TotalAmiga too. The list is on, I must do it with the work pc when going there next time...

There are so many downloads and close to no feedback whatever. Okay, could be a sign that I am doing it right. Would getting a dedicated support-forum here on Amigans make sense? I mean, with no feedback now, is there any need to discuss things? The mailing-list does seem to only have die-hard users subscribed, not much to discuss for them unless something is broken. Regards - Rudolph

I have my own customized prefs file for it. I really missed it when it was broken by the OS4 final install. I am very glad it's back in action. I never even experienced any of the things that you are fixing in these recent revisions. I say you are doing it right.

It would lock up with the title bar saying that it had copied 100% of a file, but it would not end the copying. I would reboot and check and the file was completely copied. However, shortly after, there was a new version of DM2 released that worked on OS4 final for me.

As there were only minor changes to the not GUI related parts from 2.6 to 2.7 however, also the copy-function is close 100% the same. All I did was to adapt to the latest includes, this was no functional change though.
