- Increased the default size of the Browse window

- Added a right-click drop down menu with a few common commands

- Escaping the playlist playlist should now work properly
New in MediatankController 0.81 (Oct 12, 2012)
- Added better detection of busybox: the app now looks for /bin/busybox and /bin/busybox26. It also checks if those binaries support the required functions. If one of them does, it will use that one. Otherwise it will download busybox26 transparently and install it as /tmp/busybox26.
- The settings screen now tells us which version of busybox has been detected and which one itwill use.
- It is still possible to override the detection of busybox and specify the location yourself.
- When starting a file, the filename is now properly escaped which caused some problems before with names that contain for example a quote, an ampersand or other special characters.
- When playin a whole directory, the quotes in the filename are now escaped which caused the playlist generation to fail.
- When browsing, the directory list now also contains symbolicly linked directories
- It is now possible to browse to unmounted network shares. It will automatically mount the share if it has not yet been mounted.
- Renamed "Queue music files" to "Play all music files"
- Bring the Browse window back to the front if the user clicks on the Browse button while the window is already open but overlapped by other windows, or minimized
- Prevent garbled character from being send during connecting
