Version History =============== 1.0: 16/3/99 ------------ + Added auto save script property + Updated Bookmarking applescripts to use this property, so that they only switch BMT to the foreground if they need to + Removed "history" preference - will come back in the next version! + Added Balloon Help for menu items 1.0b12: 21/1/99 --------------- + Implemented Drag & Drop (well drop anyway!) of URLs and/or text into Bookmark windows. + Fixed preferences bug - new bookmark mode wasn't getting saved properly + Fixed folder button for machines without Navigation Services installed + Implemented "Extract Links" command which reads all links out of an html file, and makes a Bookmark file for each one + Added importer for AOL link files 1.0b11: 27/11/98 ---------------- +ÊImplemented Navigation Services +ÊFixed bug where name field wasn't updated when bookmark was renamed during saving +ÊAdded ability to import (& adopt) System 8.5 internet clippings. + Added new preferences to work with the "Bookmark" apple scripts. You can now specify a folder where new bookmarks will be put automatically, or alternatively choose to have Bookmark thing ask you where to save each bookmark. + Revised the scripts to use new preferences (above). Scripts no longer require any special Scripting Additions to be installed. + Added tantalising new option to preferences which doesn't do anything yet :) 1.0b10: 4/10/98 --------------- +ÊFixed problem that was preventing bookmarks from being edited properly +ÊFinally made the "stay open" preference do something: If this preference is switched off, Bookmark Thing will quit when it has finished, if it was launched by opening a bookmark file (or dropping a file onto the application). This preference may be useful if you are short of memory and don't want to have Bookmark Thing open the whole time. +ÊTidied up the preferences dialog a bit +ÊImplemented "open in a new window" mode: If this option is set in your preferences, Bookmark Thing tries to open any web based urls (http: or https:) in a new window. It does this by sending the standard "make new window" apple event to the browser before opening the url. Some browsers may not support this event, so there is no guarantee that this feature will always work! +ÊSwitched the "editing" modifier key from shift to option: I did this to make it easier to open a bookmark for editing from the desktop. When you shift-double-click a bookmark the finder will just select it then deselect it, which isn't much use. Option-double-click does the right thing however. Let me know if you object to this change... 1.0b9: 14/9/98 +ÊRegistration code and reminder window added 1.0a8: +ÊAdded ability to edit the name of bookmark files from within the program 1.0d7: 23/4/98 -------------- +Ê68k version compiled +ÊSupport added for the appearance manager under system 8 (PPC only at the mo) +ÊAdded mecutio mdef support +ÊChanged keyboard shortcut for "Edit Bookmark" to shift-O. +ÊIf shift key is held down when launching a bookmark from the finder, the bookmark is now opened in an editing window instead of being launched +ÊImplemented saveBookmark appleevent 1.0d6: 14/3/98 -------------- +ÊYou can now set a text description for a bookmark (stored in the finder comment for the file, so can be viewed/edited in the Finder). +ÊRemoved the "Import Bookmark File" menu item (I'll put it back if it gets implemented!) +ÊNew grayscale appearance for bookmark editing window +ÊLinks to feedback address and website from About window +ÊLaunch button in editing window to launch the bookmark 1.0d5: 3/1/98 ------------- +ÊYou can now drop an entire folder onto DragThing, and it will attempt to adopt all the bookmark files inside it. 1.0d4: 22/2/98 -------------- This is the first public release. It's a bit rough around the edges, and there are quite a few features missing, but I'd like to get it out there for people to comment on... Features not implemented yet: +Êimporting from bookmark files +Êmodifier keys for dropping files from the desktop + drag & drop in bookmark windows
