This is a free update that includes the following enhancements:<\/p>\n<dl>\n<dt>Highlights<\/dt>\n<dd><ul>\n<li>You can now create custom smart folders, which can contain an unlimited number of criteria, optionally using nested Any\/All\/None criteria. Creating and editing smart folders requires Mac OS X 10.5; however, once created, the smart folders can be used with Mac OS X 10.4.<\/li>\n<li>Smart folders can now be organized into folders.<\/li>\n<li>You can define <em>actions<\/em> to occur when you drag a record onto a smart folder. For example, you could make a smart folder that shows records with a certain combination of tags, and that will assign those tags to dragged records.<\/li>\n<li>You can now create any type of new file from within EagleFiler. To do this, choose <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/eaglefiler\/manual-ah\/new-record-open-stati\">New Record \u2023 Open Stationery Folder<\/a> from the <strong>File<\/strong> menu. Whichever files you put in the <tt>Stationery<\/tt> folder become available as templates in the <strong>File \u2023 New Record<\/strong> menu.<\/li>\n<li>You can now drag messages out of mailboxes to convert them to freestanding <tt>.eml<\/tt> files. It\u2019s less efficient to store messages individually rather than in mailbox files, but there are also several advantages: the messages can be stored alongside other types of files, they can be freely moved between folders, and they are searchable by Spotlight.<\/li>\n<li>Added a <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/eaglefiler\/manual-ah\/show-tag-cloud\">Tag Cloud<\/a> window, which shows a compact listing of all the tags. You can click on a tag to toggle whether it\u2019s assigned to the selected record.<\/li>\n<li>Added a <strong>Find<\/strong> panel for searching within PDFs and Web archives.<\/li>\n<li>Added a preference to control which format Web pages are imported in. The supported formats are: Bookmark, PDF, Plain Text, Rich Text, Rich Text With Images, and Web Archive (the default).<\/li>\n<li>Added a preference to control what happens to Spotlight comments when importing. This is useful, e.g. if you had already used another application to tag your files or if you had entered notes from the Finder. If you tell EagleFiler to <strong>Import as tags<\/strong>, each word is imported as a tag. If you tell it to <strong>Import as notes and tags<\/strong>, EagleFiler extracts tags (prefixed by <tt>&amp;<\/tt> or marked using Punakea\u2019s format) and imports the remaining comments text as notes.<\/li> <li>Added commands to the contextual menus (<strong>Assign Tag<\/strong>, <strong>Set Filename<\/strong>, <strong>Set From<\/strong>, <strong>Set Title<\/strong>) so that you can quickly turn the selected text into metadata.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/dd>\n<dt>File Formats<\/dt>\n<dd><ul>\n<li>Added <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/eaglefiler\/manual-ah\/new-record-plain-text\">New Record \u2023 Plain Text File<\/a> command.<\/li>\n<li>EagleFiler can now display Microsoft Word 2007 (<tt>.docx<\/tt>) files (requires Mac OS X 10.5).<\/li>\n<li>EagleFiler can now display and edit OpenDocument Text (<tt>.odt<\/tt>) files (requires Mac OS X 10.5).<\/li>\n<li>EagleFiler can now display and search XML and binary property list (<tt>.plist<\/tt>) files.<\/li>\n<li>Now imports <tt>.webloc<\/tt> files as-is rather than converting them to Web archives.<\/li>\n<li>EagleFiler now imports <tt>.eml<\/tt> files as-is rather than converting them to single-message mailboxes.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bean-osx.com\">Bean<\/a> documents are now imported as a separate file type rather than as RTFD.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/dd>\n<dt>Interface<\/dt>\n<dd><ul>\n<li>Added <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/eaglefiler\/manual-ah\/quick-look\">Quick Look<\/a> command, which opens a Quick Look preview of the selected records in a separate window (requires Mac OS X 10.5).<\/li>\n<li>Added an <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/eaglefiler\/manual-ah\/enclosing-record\">Enclosing Record<\/a> command in the <strong>View<\/strong> menu. Replaced the <strong>Select Source<\/strong> command with the similar but more useful <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/eaglefiler\/manual-ah\/contents-of-record\">Contents of Record<\/a> command in the <strong>View<\/strong> menu. As a result, you can now use Command\u2013Up Arrow and Command\u2013Down Arrow to navigate up and down the hierarchy of folders and mailboxes.<\/li>\n<li>Added <strong>Search for Selection<\/strong> contextual menu command.<\/li>\n<li>When you mouse over a link in a Web view, EagleFiler now shows the URL at the bottom of the window.<\/li>\n<li>Revised the toolbar icons and simplified the default toolbar configuration.<\/li>\n<li>If there are no matches for a search, EagleFiler draws the records list background in yellow.<\/li>\n<li>Adjusted the unread and flagged menu item titles and toolbar labels for consistency with Mail.<\/li>\n<li>Increased the resolution of the Dock badges.<\/li>\n<li>The viewer now shows some helpful text describing the \u201cnote\u201d tag.<\/li>\n<li>Moved <strong>Show Inspector<\/strong> and <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/eaglefiler\/manual-ah\/show-tags\">Show Tags<\/a> from the <strong>Record<\/strong> menu to the <strong>Window<\/strong> menu and renamed <strong>Show Inspector<\/strong> to <strong>Show Info<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/dd>\n<dt>Capture<\/dt>\n<dd><ul>\n<li>Can now capture from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/mac\/products\/entourage2008\/default.mspx\">Entourage<\/a>, and preserves the message flags, categories, and projects. If you want EagleFiler to skip a message, you can assign it the category \u201cOmitFromArchive\u201d.<\/li>\n<li>Can now capture from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ctmdev.com\/powermail5.html\">PowerMail<\/a>, and preserves the message status and label.<\/li>\n<li>Can now capture from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/macosx\/features\/pdf\/\">Preview<\/a>, if you <a href=\"http:\/\/www.macworld.com\/article\/53391\/2006\/10\/previewscript.html\">make it scriptable<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Can now capture from <a href=\"http:\/\/reinventedsoftware.com\/together\/\">Together<\/a>, and preserves the tags, comments, labels, and ratings.<\/li>\n<li>When capturing from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.barebones.com\/products\/mailsmith\/\">Mailsmith<\/a>, EagleFiler can now import individual messages (before, only mailboxes were supported), and it now preserves the message status, label, and notes.<\/li>\n<li>When capturing from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.caminobrowser.org\">Camino<\/a>, EagleFiler now reads the URL of the current tab rather than the first tab.<\/li>\n<li>In the <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/eaglefiler\/manual-ah\/capture-with-options\">Capture With Options<\/a> window, if you edit the tags and then choose a different library, EagleFiler no longer overwrites the tags with the default ones for the new library.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/dd>\n<dt>Importing<\/dt>\n<dd><ul>\n<li>You can now import Web pages using <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/eaglefiler\/bookmarklets\">bookmarklets<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Empty files and files that contain only a resource fork (such as font suitcases) no longer count as duplicates.<\/li>\n<li>Added an esoteric preference for importing Spotlight keywords as tags.<\/li>\n<li>When you try to import a file that\u2019s already inside of the library folder, EagleFiler can now reveal the file in the browser window.<\/li>\n<li>If a connection times out while EagleFiler is importing a Web page, it will now retry twice.<\/li>\n<li>When importing bookmarks from a Web browser, EagleFiler now uses the titles you\u2019ve assigned rather than fetching them from the Web.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/dd>\n<dt>Miscellaneous<\/dt>\n<dd><ul>\n<li>Encrypted libraries can now be created as sparse bundle images, for more efficient Time Machine backups (requires Mac OS X 10.5).<\/li>\n<li>Encrypted libraries can now use 256-bit rather than 128-bit encryption (requires Mac OS X 10.5).<\/li>\n<li>You can now type tag names directly into an <strong>Anywhere<\/strong> search.<\/li>\n<li>You can now view messages in Microsoft Entourage instead of Apple Mail (requires Mac OS X 10.5). To do this, <strong>Get Info<\/strong> on a <tt>.eml<\/tt> file in the Finder, choose Entourage from the <strong>Open with<\/strong> pop-up menu, and click <strong>Change All<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>The <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/eaglefiler\/manual-ah\/copy-record-link\">Copy Record Link<\/a> command now creates links using persistent IDs so that they will still work if you delete EagleFiler\u2019s database and import the files into a new library.<\/li>\n<li>Added <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/eaglefiler\/manual-ah\/how-can-i-put-my-librar\">How can I put my library on my iPhone?<\/a> section to the manual.<\/li>\n<li>Added <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/eaglefiler\/manual-ah\/shortcuts\">Shortcuts<\/a> section to the manual.<\/li>\n<li>Added an esoteric preference to clear the search field when you select a different source.<\/li>\n<li>You can now double-click a smart folder to open it in a new window.<\/li>\n<li>EagleFiler now indexes a file\u2019s Spotlight keywords for searching.<\/li>\n<li>Improved auto-generated titles.<\/li>\n<li>Improved the display of improperly encoded message headers.<\/li>\n<li>Worked around a bug in Mac OS X 10.4 when highlighting matching search terms in the records list.<\/li>\n<li>Removes stray index files when opening the library.<\/li>\n<li>If there\u2019s an error getting the downloads folder for a software update, EagleFiler now defaults to <tt>Downloads<\/tt> rather than <tt>Desktop<\/tt>.<\/li>\n<li>No longer shows the <tt>__deleted__<\/tt> tag in the records list.<\/li>\n<li>The <strong>Untagged<\/strong> source now shows records that only have the \u201cnote\u201d tag.<\/li>\n<li>Improved parsing of invalid mbox files.<\/li>\n<li>Improved error reporting when downloading Web pages.<\/li>\n<li>Rewrote filesystem code to improve performance and error reporting.<\/li>\n<li>Made various changes to improve interface responsiveness.<\/li>\n<li>Note files now include a relative URL to the file that they\u2019re attached to, so that you can easily find the file if EagleFiler isn\u2019t installed.<\/li>\n<li>Added placeholder text to the <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/eaglefiler\/manual-ah\/purchase\">Purchase<\/a> window.<\/li>\n<li>No longer lets Web pages steal focus from the records list.<\/li>\n<li>You can now bring up the <strong>Find<\/strong> panel when the source list or records list has focus.<\/li>\n<li>EagleFiler now saves damaged index files for possible future analysis of why Search Kit couldn\u2019t open them. It also tries multiple times to open indexes, since Search Kit sometimes changes its mind about which indexes are valid.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/dd>\n<dt>Bug Fixes<\/dt>\n<dd><ul>\n<li>If an unexpected error occurs while EagleFiler is emptying the trash, it no longer leaves the library in an inconsistent state. Also, EagleFiler will now detect and repair this sort of damage when opening a library.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed a bug where a duplicate \u201cFrom \u201d line could be inserted when generating an mbox file from an Apple Mail mailbox. This was harmless but unsightly.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed a bug where, in rare cases, two messages imported from Apple Mail could be joined into one, so that it looked like some had been skipped.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed a bug where EagleFiler changed the selection if you tried to delete a source and then cancelled.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed a bug where <a href=\"http:\/\/c-command.com\/eaglefiler\/manual-ah\/reveal-in-finder\">Reveal in Finder<\/a> didn\u2019t work when KeePassX was running.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed a bug where you could, via the contextual menu, open a different page when viewing a Web archive.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed a bug where EagleFiler could freeze when revealing a non-existent file in the Finder.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed a bug where EagleFiler\u2019s Web fonts would not be consistent with Safari\u2019s if you\u2019d never changed the fonts in Safari\u2019s preferences.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed a bug where, when capturing multiple items with notes, some records without notes would be assigned the notes from one of the other records.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed a bug where certain errors when creating a new library were not correctly reported.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed a bug where the PDF viewer state wasn\u2019t always preserved.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed a bug where the title of text records wasn\u2019t linked to the filename by default.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed a bug where newly added tags weren\u2019t selected if you had been renaming another tag.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed a bug where EagleFiler could crash when closing a browser window.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n\n<p>For more information, please see the <a href=\"https:\/\/c-command.com\/downloads\/manual\/EagleFilerManual-1.4.pdf\">EagleFiler Manual<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Download EagleFiler 1.4 is now available.
