Portidy Changelog

What's new in Portidy 0.9.1

Mar 8, 2010
  • Some new features of Portidy:
  • Option to enable / disable appini files
  • Wildcard support ('*', '?') for file names and registry entries in appini files
  • (this was hard work, as I had to (completely) rewrite several Portidy base functions...)
  • Handle (search / monitor / delete) registry value contents (!)
  • French language support
  • New placeholder %0xHX% for inserting literal ASCII characters
  • Better error handling for invalid placeholders (Portidy doesn't quit anymore on syntax errors but deactivates the affected appini file and shows a warning)
  • Added several new appini files
  • Changes:
  • Added: French language file
  • Added: warning messages for invalid or non-writable paths (temp dir, log file)
  • Added: Better error handling for invalid placeholders (appini's, temp dir & log file path)
  • Added: New placeholders %star% and %qmark% are replaced by literal '*' and '?' respectively
  • Added: New placeholder %0xHX% is replaced by the ASCII-Code 'HX' (given as hexadecimal) in appini's and language files (Example: %0x25% is replaced by a literal percent sign)
  • Added: wildcard support ('*', '?') for file names and registry entries in appini files
  • Added: Registry paths are displayed with their short hive name in the info / cleanup window for clarity ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" => "HKLM" / "HKEY_USERS" => "HKU" / ...)
  • Added: Option to show found fileexists / regexists entries in info / clean up window for information
  • Changed: Applications in the info / clean up window are sorted by display name instead of internal name (equal to the monitored applications window)
  • Added: Option to monitor & delete contents (!) of registry values
  • Fixed: Default-Value ('') not handled properly in regexists / regdelete
  • Added: Option to display a warning & quit Portidy, if started multiple times (enabled by default)
  • Fixed: disable input for parent windows / tray menu, when opening a new window (inhibits opening windows unintended more than once & fixes some unexpected behaviours related to this problem)
  • Added: Option to enable / disable appini files
  • Fixed: In certain cases Portidy exit unintentionally (opened the clean up window) after closing the config window
  • Changed: replaced all 'HKU\%SID%\...' registry entries in appini files by 'HKCU\...' and removed redundant entries
  • Added: appini file for DeepBurner Portable
  • Added: appini file for Eclipse / Subclipse
  • Added: appini file for Freemind
  • Added: appini file for GPSBabel
  • Added: appini file for Sysinternal's PsTools
