New in calibre2opds 3.2 rev. 233 (Apr 25, 2014)

Documentation moved back to wiki on MobileRead as it is easier to maintain than is the case on WordPress.
Using a wiki also allows for users to update it directly which should help with improving the documentation.
Reworked the way that filenames within the catalog are derived. Should mean that filenames are shorter and less cryptic. However invalidates any cached names from earlier releases.
Reworked way the 'encrypt' files option is handled. When active an 'encryption string' is
added at the start of folder/file names only - but the remainder of names is same as unecrypted versions.
Improvements to run.cmd and rungui.cmd for handling 32-bit Java on 64-bit Windows
hanged the way progress text messages are derived so should be more meaningfull.
Added counts to some of the generation progress lines where it made sense (authors, tags, series etc)
Re-organise GUI fields amongst the various tabs
(in particular move Featured Books fields to Custom Catalogs tab)
Sorting in the All Books catalog should ignore case
Setting catalog folder to root (/) is not treated as an error
Context sensitive help on configuration tabs
Remove the display of the "Stop catalog generation Button" while other dialog displayed on top
The "All Books" section within an author not sorted alphabetically
Do not delete .htaccess files from generated catalog
Tags have square brackets added in Book Details
Language is ignored when running on command line (cli)
Improvements to German localization (thanks to Venia.Legendi)
Include year in Recent sub-catalog entries
Remove option to Exit from the confirm dialog displayed after pressing Save
Add links to Localization and customization guides to Help menu
Allow more control over contents of Book Details pages.

CALIBRE2OPDS_CONFIG Environment variable used incorrectly

The 'Open Log File' option does not work on Windows 8
Allow the book links to external sites to be localized

Added an option to clear encrypted filenames cache to Tools menu
