  • Added evaluator RecycleBin() function. Lets you query various things about the state of the recycle bin (full/empty, size, number of items), either for the bin as a whole or for individual drives. If a drive is specified and the recycle bin is not enabled for that drive, it returns -1.

  • Added Item.expanded script property. Returns true for folders that are currently expanded in the file display.

  • The New -> Shortcut command no longer leaves the Lister without focus once the new link dialog returns.

  • The "nofade" keyword for Set BACKGROUNDIMAGEOPTS wasn't working.

  • Fixed @ifsel not correctly determining file selection if run from a script-generated function without a source tab explicitly assigned.

  • Improved behaviour of FileType EDIT command when multiple different file types are selected.

  • 7z DLL updated to version 24.09.

  • UnRAR DLL updated to version 7.11.

  • Clearing the Recent List in Preferences / Misc / Privacy now causes things like the folder tree to refresh if they are displaying the list.

  • Reverted change in the previous beta to allow escaping of % characters in command lines. Potentially causes too many issues with existing commands.

  • Fixed issue with back history list when the current folder is deleted and then re-read via Go REFRESH.

  • Fixed {=...=} evaluation command insert not receiving the value of other braced args (e.g. sourcepath) in commands that didn't otherwise need them.
