Highlights

Added Capture with options command (Option-F1 by default), which lets you set the library, destination folder, tags, and other metadata right when you press the capture key.
Added Batch Change… menu command and button in the tags bar. This lets you set the title, from name, label, tags, and notes of the selected records all at once.
Now uses Quick Look to display file types that EagleFiler doesn’t natively understand (e.g. Pages, Keynote, OmniGraffle, fonts). This feature requires Mac OS X 10.5.
Added Untagged smart folder to the source list.
Added Date Created and Tag Names columns to the records list.
Added Set Label submenu and contextual menu.
Added specialized viewing and indexing support for iCalendar (.ics) and vCard (.vcf) files.
Now indexes Skim notes attached to PDF and PDFD files so that you can search for them within EagleFiler.
Revised the icons and layout throughout the user interface.
Made various optimizations so that EagleFiler is faster and more responsive.

Browser Windows

When creating new rich text files or notes, EagleFiler now creates RTF files instead of RTFD ones when possible. RTF files are more compatible and faster. Additionally, when editing files in the viewer, EagleFiler automatically converts between RTF and RTFD depending on whether RTFD is required.
When using the Record ‣ Tag command to jump to the tags bar, EagleFiler now moves the insertion point to the end of the tags, rather than selecting all of them.
When you create a New Rich Text File within EagleFiler, it’s no longer marked as unread.
The Open in External Viewer toolbar button now shows which application will be used to open the file.
Added Update Checksum toolbar button.
Now shows tag colors in the source list.
You can now tab from editing the File column in the records list into the record viewer, which makes creating new RTF files smoother. (Requires Mac OS X 10.5.)
When you open a library on a smaller screen than it was previously opened on, EagleFiler now overrides the OS and shrinks the window so that it fits on the screen.
Added Select Source to the contextual menu.
Added a custom drag image for the records lists.
Added ellipsis-truncation to column headers in the records list.
Increased the maximum width of the date columns.
Holding down Option to skip the confirmation when emptying the trash now works from the contextual menu.
When displaying Usenet messages from mbox files, EagleFiler now shows the name of the newsgroup in the To area of the viewer.
You can now copy an image file that EagleFiler’s displaying to the clipboard.
Now remembers between launches if you’ve set the PDF view to display continuous or facing pages.
You can now press Command-Delete to delete the selected record(s) when the viewer has focus.
You can now double-click the drag strip to collapse the source list.
Increased the font size in the tags bar.

Capture

If no library is open when you press the capture key, instead of showing an error alert, EagleFiler now opens the Capture with options dialog, which lets you open or create a library to complete the capture.
Can now capture from Address Book, Flock 1.0, iCab 4, Keynote, MindManager, Pages, OmniGraffle, and TextMate.
Revised the user interface for setting the capture key.
While EagleFiler is in the process of capturing (i.e. running the capture script or showing the capture options dialog), it now badges the Dock icon with a picture of a camera.
Added |creationDate| and |modificationDate| options for capture scripts.
Improved preservation of modification and creation dates when capturing from DEVONthink Pro, MarsEdit, Journler, and Yojimbo.
Improved the reliability when capturing from WebnoteHappy, e.g. if it returns invalid tag, note, or title information.
EagleFiler now creates the user Capture Scripts folder for you.

Miscellaneous

If EagleFiler is busy when you ask it to close a library, it now stops any existing operations (except when doing so would cause data loss), so you no longer have to wait and/or stop them yourself.
When dealing with “Bad Checksum” errors in the Errors window, you can now update the checksums for multiple errors at a time, and after updating a checksum EagleFiler removes the error from the window.
Reduced EagleFiler’s RAM use for large libraries.

Importing

Text dragged from a Web page is now imported as a Web archive instead of an RTFD file. (If you want an RTFD file, you can use the Convert For Editing command.)
In addition to checking periodically, EagleFiler nows checks the To Import folders when it becomes the active application. This should get new files imported sooner.
Now shows a single Growl notification for each batch of files imported, rather than for each individual one.
Now shows a progress spinner next to the action menu while EagleFiler is busy importing.
Changed the Dock icon indicator that shows when EagleFiler is importing. Instead of a red circle, it now shows a downward pointing arrow.
Improved EagleFiler’s recovery when WebKit runs into an internal error while saving a Web archive file.

Info Inspector

Added URL field.
Enlarged the Title field and Notes text view.
Now displays three dates—Created, Added, and Modified—and the creation and modification dates are editable.
Fields that are unavailable are now disabled rather than just marked as uneditable.

Search

Now shows the search scope beneath the search box so that it’s clear which parts of the records you’re searching.
When searching, you can now use OR as a synonym for |, and you can use -word as a synonym for !word.
EagleFiler is better at estimating how long indexing will take when some of the records in the library are already indexed.

AppleScript

The import command now returns a list of the imported records. This makes it easier to set the properties of the new records. Additionally, import now waits until the records have been imported before returning, so the script knows when the import has finished.
The import command now supports a deleting afterwards option, which makes EagleFiler delete the source file after successfully importing it.
You can now use the import command outside of a tell library document block; it will then target the frontmost library.
The source URL property is now settable.

Bug Fixes

The order in the labels pop-up menu now matches the Finder.
Now remembers the sorted column of the Tags inspector between launches.
Fixed bug where the source URL wasn’t set if you imported a URL of a file that wasn’t a Web page.
No longer shows the Rebuild dialog when opening a library if you hold down other modifier keys in addition to Command-Option.

After you drop a file onto a spring-loaded folder in the source list, EagleFiler will collapse the temporarily expanded folders.
EagleFiler no longer tries to import SketchUp files as text, and therefore it won’t try to display them, which led to long freezes as the data overloaded Cocoa’s text system.

Fixed bug parsing tags from strings containing non-ASCII alphabetic characters.
Fixed bug where labels were lost when editing RTF or RTFD files within EagleFiler.

1.2—May 30, 2007

Made a variety of changes to improve EagleFiler’s speed and responsiveness, especially for libraries with many files.
You can now copy from one library to another via drag and drop. All of the EagleFiler metadata will be preserved.
The New Library… command now offers the option to create an encrypted library.
Highlights search matches in the items list and the record viewer.
Each library now has a To Import folder in the Finder. Any files that you save into this folder will be imported when you open the library (or within the next minute or two if the library is already open).
You can now delete (and undelete) individual e-mail messages.
Uses the available Spotlight importers to index the content of many types of files that EagleFiler doesn’t natively understand.
Added Match Partial Words option to the search pop-up. When this is checked, you can search for partial words without having to type wildcards (*) in the query.
tag:<tagname> searches now work with Filename, From, To/Cc, and Title searches, rather than just Anywhere and Notes searches.
Can now capture from Skim and Journler (preserving tags).
When capturing from Cocoalicious, EagleFiler now preserves the tags and the description and extended description.
Added Backup Metadata command. EagleFiler will automatically backup a library’s metadata when it’s opened (unless you have Shift held down) and also periodically after it’s been opened. You can manually backup the metadata by holding down the Option key and choosing Backup Metadata from the File menu. Metadata is backed up to EagleFiler Metadata.plist files inside the library folder. If you import a file that has backed-up metadata, EagleFiler will use the stored metadata to set the title, from name, checksum, source URL, tags, and notes.
Added Copy tags to Spotlight comments preference. When this is enabled, you’ll be able to find files in your library by searching for their tag name using Spotlight.
If you hold down the Command and Option keys when opening a library, you can access the new Rebuild Indexes dialog. This lets you optimize or repair EagleFiler’s search indexes, and you can choose whether it indexes for word searches or phrase searches. Previous versions of EagleFiler always indexed for phrase searches. Switching to word indexing will speed up EagleFiler’s indexing and substantially reduce the amount of disk space that the indexes consume.
Added Update Checksum command, so that it’s easier to tell EagleFiler when you’ve modified a file using another application.
When importing via AppleScript, you can now specify which folder to import into, e.g. import files {theFile} container theFolder.
It’s now possible to change filenames via AppleScript.
When using Previous/Next Record with the Info inspector in front or the tags bar focused, the text field will retain its focus as the selected record changes, making it possible to quickly edit multiple tags/titles/filenames in sequence.
You can now press Option-Delete when viewing a tag source to move the selected records to the trash rather than unassigning the tag.
Added Esoteric Preferences.
When exporting messages in .emlx format, now includes the tags and notes.
Now shows a determinant progress bar when importing a folder.
No longer shows a progress window when opening a library.
Improved the display of various kinds of multi-part e-mail messages.
No longer shows the children of smart folders in the source list.
Now shows the pointing hand cursor when you hover over a clickable link in a text view.
From the AppleScript interface, it is now possible to access records by name, subject to the filename being unique.
Added backup metadata AppleScript command.
You can now change the case of a file’s extension.
Updated to Python 2.5.1.

1.1—December 6, 2006

Importing

EagleFiler will now let you import any kind of document. If it doesn’t know how to display the document, it will simply show the file’s icon, which you can click to open it in another application.

Text and Rich Text Files

It’s now possible to edit text, RTF, and RTFD files directly in the record viewer. EagleFiler will automatically save any changes that you make and update the files’ checksums.
Creating new rich text files is much smoother. The keyboard shortcut is now Command-N instead of Command-Control-N. If the File column is visible, EagleFiler will bypass the sheet, select the new file in the records list, and bring the File cell into edit mode so that you can set the filename and title. You can then tab into the record viewer to begin typing the contents of the file.
You can drag records into the record viewer (or the notes text view) to create links to them.

Searching

Added Convert For Editing command, which lets you convert Web archives to RTFD files that can be edited.
If you hold down Option when double-clicking a Web archive (or a RTFD file converted from a Web archive), EagleFiler opens the current version of the page rather than the archive.
EagleFiler now shows custom icons for folders. You can set a custom icon using the Finder’s Get Info window.
Added Show ‣ Source List and Show ‣ Record Viewer commands for people who want to use the menu or keyboard instead of double-clicking the divider.

Other Enhancements

If you ask EagleFiler to import a URL and the URL can’t be saved as a Web archive (e.g. because it’s an image or PDF), EagleFiler will download the file and import it as-is, rather than reporting an error about not being able to save a Web archive.
