> Major engine update

Much faster in program load.

> Session along with duplicate file/folder list and marks is retained upon exiting/starting

Though this causes much slower shutdown & restart.

Thinking it should be optional, or at least the reload on restart.
More like the way Firefox may act.
Option to save on exit.
Then on reopen, you are afforded the option (to manually) restore last session.

The extra time in saving on exit probably is the lessor issue.
Might even be able to do that in a background thread once the UI has closed?
(But that could also lead to attempt restart prior to having fully exited.)

Not sure why its taking so long on restart unless its verifying that there is no stale data?


> Filter the list by Marked/not marked files and groups

That's nice.

(Other stuff I haven't really explored, yet.)

Excellent! I've been running into troubles with the old version, the ones described in my previous comments, for months and this one seems to have resolved all of them so far. This feels like going from 2 to 3 did for me.

The only problem I've noticed so far is the ability to sort by File Type by clicking on the column in "All" mode is broken. I am able to sort by any other category but not by file type. Clicking does nothing the button has somehow been broken.

Updated to 3.1.1 with a couple of bug and efficiency fixes. Note to get the most out of this update you'll need to uninstall 3.1.0 first.


Comp9 - The file type column isn't sortable as it is generated on the fly to save memory.
