Changes:
---------------- VERSION 2.04 --------------
12/1/05: Bug Fix: Fixed a bug in the verbose output of img_open
that would crash if no type or offset was given. Reported and
patched by Wyatt Banks.
12/20/05: Bug Fix: An NTFS directory index sanity check used 356
instead of 365 when calculating an upper bound on the times. Reported
by Wyatt Banks.
12/23/05: Bug Fix: Two printf statements in istat for NTFS printed
to stdout instead of a specific file handle. Reported by Wyatt
Banks.
1/22/06: Bug Fix: fsstat, imgstat and dcalc were using a char instead
of int for the return value of getopt, which caused some systems to not
execute the programs. (internal fix and later reported by Bernhard Reiter)
2/23/06: Update: added support for FreeBSD 6.
2/27/06: Bug Fix: Indirect blocks would nto be found by ifind with
UFS and Ext2. Reported by Nelson G. Mejias-Diaz. (BUG: 1440075)
3/9/06: Update: Added AFF image file support.
3/14/06: Bug Fix: If the first directory entry of a UFS or ExtX block
was unallocated, then later entries may not be shown. Reported by John
Langezaal. (BUG: 1449655)
4/3/06: Update: Finished the improved error handling. Many internal
changes, not many external changes. error() function no longer used
and instead tsk_err variables and function are used. This makes the
library more powerful.
4/5/06: Update: The byte offset for a volume is now passed to the mm_
and fs_ functions instead of img_open. This allows img_info to be used
for multiple volumes at the same time. This required some mm_ changes.
4/5/06: Update: All TSK libraries are written to the lib directory.
4/6/06: Update: Added FS_FLAG_DATA_RES flag to identify data that are
resident in ntfs_data_walk (suggested by Michael Cohen).
4/6/06: Update: The partition code (media Management) now checks that a
partition starts before the end of the image file. There are currently
no checks about the end of the partition though.
4/6/06: Update: The media management code now shows unpartitioned space
as such from the end of the last partition to the end of the image file
(using the image file size). (Suggested by Wyatt Banks).
4/7/06: Update: New version of ISO9660 code from Wyatt Banks and Crucial
Security added and other code updated to allow CDs to be analyzed.
4/7/06: There was a conflict with guessuXX with mmtools and fstools.
Renamed to mm_guessXX and fs_guessXX.

4/24/06: Updated libewf to 20060423-1
4/26/06: Updated makedefs to work with SunOS 5.10
5/3/06: Added iso9660 patch from Wyatt Banks so that version number
is not printed with file name.
5/4/06: Updated error checking in icat, istat, fatfs_dent, and ntfs_dent
5/8/06: Updated libewf to 20060505-1 to fix some gcc 2 compile errors.
5/9/06: Updated AFFLIB to 1.6.18

7/26/05: Update: Removed the logfp variable for verbose statements
and instead use only stderr.
8/12/05: Update: If time is 0, then it is put as 00:00:00 instead of
the default 1970 or 1980 time.
8/13/05: Update: Added Unicode support for FAT and NTFS (Supported by
I.D.E.A.L. Technology Corp).
9/2/05: Update: Added Unicode support for UFS and ExtX. Non-printable
ASCII characters are no longer replaced with '^.'.
9/2/05: Update: Improved the directory entry sanity checks for UFS
and ExtX.
9/2/05: Update: Upgraded file to version 4.15.
9/2/05: Update: The dent_walk code of all file systems does not
abort if a sub-directory is encountered with an error. If it is the
top directory explicitly called, then it still gives an error.
9/2/05: Bug Fix: MD5 and SHA-1 values were incorrect under AMD64
systems because the incorrect variable sizes were being used.
(reported by: Regis Friend Cassidy. BUG: 1280966)
9/2/05: Update: Changed all licenses in TSK to Common Public License
(except those that were already IBM Public License).
9/15/05: Bug Fix: The Unicode names would not be displayed if the FAT
short name entry was using code pages. The ASCII name check was removed,
which may lead to more false positives during inode_walk.
10/05/05: Update: improved the sector size check when the FAT boot
sector is read (check for specific values besides just mod 512).
10/12/05: Update: The ASCII name check was added back into FAT, but
the check no longer looks for values over 0x80.
10/12/05: Update: The inode_walk function in FAT skips clusters
that are allocated to files. This makes it much faster, but it
will now not find unallocated directory entries in the slack space
of allocated files.
10/13/05: Update: sorter updated to handle unicode in HTML output.
---------------- VERSION 2.02 --------------
4/27/05: Bug Fix: the sizes of 'id' were not consistent in the
front-end and library functions for icat and ffind. Reported by
John Ward.
5/16/05: Bug Fix: fls could segfault in FAT if short name did not
exist. There was also a bug where the long file name variable
(fatfs->lfn_len) was not reset after processing a directory and the
next entry could incorrectly get the long name. Reported by Jaime
Chang. BUG: 1203673.
5/18/05: Update: Updated makedefs to support Darwin 8 (OS X Tiger)
5/23/05: Bug Fix: ntfs_dent_walk would not always stop when WALK_STOP
was returned. This caused some issues with previous versions of ifind.
This was fixed.
5/24/05: Bug Fix: Would not compile under Suse because it had header
file conflicts for the size of int64_t. Reported by: Andrea Ghirardini.
BUG: 1203676
5/25/05: Update: Fixed some memory leaks in fstools (reported by Jaime
Chang).
6/13/05: Update: Compiled with g++ to get better warning messages.
Fixed many signed versus unsigned comparisons, -1 assignments to
unsigned vars, and some other minor internal issues.
6/13/05: Bug Fix: if UFS or FFS found a valid dentry in unallocated
space, it could have a documented length that is larger than the
remaining unallocated space. This would cause an allocated name
to be skipped. BUG: 1210204 Reported by Christopher Betz.
6/13/05: Update: Improved design of all dent code so that there are no
more global variables.
6/13/05: Update: Improved design of FAT dent code so that FATFS_INFO
does not keep track of long file name information.
6/13/05: Bug Fix: If a cluster in a directory started with a strange
dentry, then FAT inode_walk would skip it. The fixis to make sure
that all directory sectors are processed. (BUG: 1203669). Reported
by Jaime Chang.
6/14/05: Update: Changed design of FS_INODE so that it contains the
inode address and the inode_walk action was changed to remove inum
as an argument.
6/15/05: Update: Added 'ils -o' back in as 'ils -O' to list open
and deleted files.
6/15/05: Update: Added '-m' flag to mactime so that it prints the month
as a number instead of its name.
7/2/05: Bug Fix: If an NTFS file did not have a $DATA or $IDX_*
attribute, then fls would not print it. The file had no content, but
the name should be shown. (BUG: 1231515) (Reported by Fuerst)
---------------- VERSION 2.01 --------------
3/24/05: Bug Fix: ffind would fail if the directory had two
non-printable chars. The handling of non-printable chars was changed
to replace with '^.'. (BUG: 1170310) (reported by Brian Baskin)
3/24/05: Bug Fix: icat would not print the output to stdout when split
images were used. There was a bug in the image closing process of
icat. (BUG: 1170309) (reported by Brian Baskin)
3/24/05: Update: Changed the header files in fstools to make fs_lib.h
more self contained.
4/1/05: Bug Fix: Imgtools byte offset with many leading 0s could
cause issues. (BUG: 1174977)
4/1/05: Update: Removed test check in mmtools/dos.c for value cluster
size because to many partition tables have that as a valid field.
Now it checks only OEM name.
4/8/05: Update: Updated usage of 'strtoul' to 'strtoull' for blocks
and inodes.
---------------- VERSION 2.00 --------------
1/6/05: Update: Added '-b' flag to 'mmls' so that sizes can be
printed in bytes. Suggested and a patch proposed by Matt Kucenski
1/6/05: Update: Define DADDR_T, INUM_T, OFF_T, PNUM_T as a static
size and use those to store values in data structures. Updated
print statements as well.
1/6/05: Update: FAT now supports larger images becuase the inode
address space is 64-bits.
1/6/05: Moved guess and get functions to misc from mmtools and
fstools.
1/7/05: Update: Added imgtools with support for "raw" and "split"
layers. All fstools have been updated.
1/7/05: Update: removed dtime from ils output
1/9/05: Update: FAT code reads in clusters instead of sectors to
be faster (suggested by David Collett)
1/9/05: Update: mmtools uses imgtools for split images etc.
1/10/05: Update: Removed usage of global variables when using
file_walk internally.
1/10/05: Update: mmls BSD will use the next sector automatically
if the wrong is given instead of giving an error.

volume system.
1/17/05: Update: Now using CVS for local version control - added
date stamps to all files.
2/20/05: Bug Fix: ils / istat would go into an infinte loop if the
attribute list had an entry with a length of 0. Reported by Angus
Marshall (BUG: 1144846)
3/2/05: Update: non-printable letters in ExtX/UFS file names are
now replaced by a '.'
3/2/05: Update: Made file system tools more library friendly by
making stubs for each application.

incorrect _percentage_ of free blocks value (although the actual
number was correct). Reported by Knut Eckstein. (BUG: 1158620)
3/11/05: Update: Renamed diskstat, disksreset, sstrings, and imgstat to
disk_stat, disk_sreset, srch_strings, and img_stat to make the names more
clear.

EXTxFS istat.
09/13/04: Update: Added EXTxFS orphan code to 'fsstat'
09/24/04: Update: Fixed incorrect usage of 'ptr' and "" in action

arithmetic. Caused issues with Debian Sarge. (BUG: 1049352) - turned out
to be from changes made to package version so that it would compile in
64-bit system (BUG: 928278).
10/11/04: Update: Added diskstat to check for HPA on linux systems.
10/13/04: Update: Added root directory location to FAT32 fsstat output
10/17/04: Bug Fix: EXTxFS superblock location would not be printed
for images in fsstat that did not have sparse superblok (which is
rare) (BUG: 1049355)
10/17/04: Update: Added sigfind tool to find binary signatures.
10/27/04: Bug Fix: NTFS is_clust_alloc returned an error when loading
$MFT that had attribute list entry. Now I assume that clusters

(BUG: 1055862).
10/28/04: Bug Fix: Check to see if an attribute with the same name
exists instead of relying on id only. (ntfs_proc_attrseq) Affects
the processing of attribute lists. Reported by Szakacsits Szabolcs,
Matt Kucenski, & Gene Meltser (BUG: 1055862)

(Bug: 928278)
---------------- VERSION 1.72 --------------
07/31/04: Update: Added flag to mft_lookup so that ifind can run in noabort
mode and it will not stop when it finds an invalid magic value.
08/01/04: Update: Removed previous change and removed MAGIC check
entirely. XP doesn't even care if the Magic is corrupt, so neither
does TSK. The update sequence check should find an invalid MFT
entry.
08/01/04: Update: Added error message to 'ifind' if none of the search
options are given.
08/05/04: Bug Fix: Fixed g_curdirptr recursive error by clearing the value

(BUG: 1004329) Reported by epsilon@yahoo.com
08/16/04: Update: Added a sanity check to fatfs.c fat2unixtime to check
if the year is > 137 (which is the overflow date for the 32-bit UNIX time).

08/20/04: Bug Fix: Fixed a bug where the group number for block 0 of an
EXT2FS file system would report -1. 'dstat' no longer displays value when it
is not part of a block group. (BUG: 1013227)
8/24/04: Update: If an attribute list entry is found with an invalid MFT
entry address, then it is ignored instead of an error being generated and
exiting.
8/26/04: Update: Changed internal design of NTFS to make is_clust_alloc
8/26/04: Update: If an attribute list entry is found with an invalid MFT
entry address AND the entry is unallocated, then no error message is
printed, it is just ignored or logged in verbose mode.
8/29/04: Update: Added support for 32-bit GID and UID in EXTxFS
8/30/04: Bug Fix: ntfs_dent_walk was adding 24 extra bytes to the
size of the index record for the final record processing (calc of
list_len) (BUG: 1019321) (reported and debugging help from Matt
Kucenski).
8/30/04: Bug Fix: fs_data_lookup was using an id of 0 as a wild
card, but 0 is a legit id value and this could cause confusion. To
solve this, a new FS_FLAG_FILE_NOID flag was added and a new
fs_data_lookup_noid function that will not use the id to lookup
values. (BUG: 1019690) (reported and debugging help from Matt
Kucenski)
8/30/04: Update: modified fs_data_lookup_noid to return unamed data
attribute if that type is requested (instead of just relying on id
value in attributes)
8/31/04: Update: Updated file to v4.10, which seems to fix the
CYGWIN compile problem.
9/1/04: Update: Added more DOS partition types to mmls (submitted by
Matt Kucenski)

---------------- VERSION 1.71 --------------
06/05/04: Update: Added sanity checks in fat to unix time conversion so that
invalid times are set to 0.
06/08/04: Bug Fix: Added a type cast when size is assigned in FAT
and removed the assignment to a 32-bit signed variable (which was no
longer needed). (Bug: 966839)
06/09/04: Bug Fix: Added a type cast to the 'getuX' macros because some
compilers were assuming it was signed (Bug: 966839).
06/11/04: Update: Changed NTFS magic check to use the aa55 at the
end and fixed the name of the original "magic" value to oemname.
The oemname is now printed in fsstat.
06/12/04: Bug Fix: The NTFS serial number was being printed with
bytes in the wrong order in the fsstat output. (BUG: 972207)
06/12/04: Update: The begin offset value in index header for NTFS
was 16-bits instead of 32-bits.
06/22/04: Update: Created a library for the MD5 and SHA1 functions so
that it can be incorporated into other tools. Also renamed some of the
indexing tools that hfind uses.
06/23/04: Update: Changed output of 'istat' for NTFS images. Added more
data from $STANDARD_INFORMATION.
07/13/04: Update: Changed output of 'istat' for NTFS images again. Moved
more data to the $FILE_NAME section and added new data.
07/13/04: Update: Changed code for processing NTFS runs and no
longer check for the offset to be 0 in ntfs_make_data_run(). This
could have prevented some sparse files from being processed.
07/13/04: Update: Added flags for compressed and encrypted NTFS
files. They are not decrypted or uncompressed yet, just identified.
They cannot be displayed from 'icat', but the known layout is given
in 'istat'.
07/18/04: Bug Fix: Sometimes, 'icat' would report an error about an
existing FILLER entry in an NTFS attribute. This was traced to
instances when it was run on a non-base file record. There is now
a check for that to not show the error. (BUG: 993459)
07/19/04: Bug Fix: A run of -1 may exist for sparse files in non-NT
versions of NTFS. Changed check for this. reported by Matthew
Kucenski. (BUG: 994024).
07/24/04: Bug Fix: NTFS attribute names were missing (rarely) on
some files because the code assumed they would always be at offset
64 for non-res attributes (Bug: 996981).
07/24/04: Update: Made listing of unallcoated NTFS file names less
strict. There was a check for file name length versus stream length.
07/24/04: Update: Added $OBJECT_ID output to 'istat'
07/24/04: Update: Fixed ntfs.c compile warning about constant too
large in time conversion code.
07/25/04: Update: Added attribute list contents to NTFS 'istat' output
07/25/04: Bug Fix: Not all slack space was being shown with 'dls -s'.
It was documented that this occurs, but it is not what would be
expected. (BUG: 997800).
07/25/04: Update: Changed output format of 'dls -s' so that it sends
zeros where the file content was. Therefore the output is now a
multiple of the data unit size. Also removed limitation to FAT &
NTFS.
07/25/04: Update: 'dcalc' now has the '-s' option calculate the
original location of data from a slack space image (dls -s).
(from Chris Betz).
07/26/04: Update: Created the fs_os.h file and adjusted some of the
header files for the PRI macros (C99). Created defines for OSes that do
not have the macros already defined.
07/26/04: Non-release bug fix: Fixed file record size bug introduced with
recent changes.
07/27/04: Update: Added GPT support to mmls.
07/29/04: Update: Added '-p' flag to 'ifind' to find deleted NTFS files
that point to the given parent directory. Added '-l and -z' as well.
---------------- VERSION 1.70 --------------
04/21/04: Update: Changed attribute and mode for FAT 'istat' so
that actual FAT attributes are used instead of UNIX translation.

address in addition to the sector address.
04/24/04: Update: Added the cluster range to the FAT 'fsstat' output
05/01/04: Update: Improved the FAT version autodetect code.
05/02/04: Update: Removed 'H' flag from 'icat'.
05/02/04: Update: Changed all of the FS_FLAG_XXX variables in the
file system tools to constants that are specific to the usage
(NAME, DATA, META, FILE).
05/03/04: Update: fatfs_inode_walk now goes by sectors instead of clusters
to get more dentries from slack space.
05/03/04: Bug Fix: The allocation status of FAT dentires was set only by
the flag and not the allocation status of the cluster it is located in.
(BUG: 947112)
05/03/04: Update: Improved comments and variable names in FAT code
05/03/04: Update: Added '-r' flag to 'icat' for deleted file recovery
05/03/04: Update: Added RECOVERY flag to file_walk for deleted file
recovery
05/03/04: Update: Added FAT file recovery.
05/03/04: Update: Removed '-H' flag from 'icat'. Default is to
display holes.
05/03/04: Update: 'fls -r' will recurse down deleted directories in FAT
05/03/04: Update: 'fsstat' reports FAT clusters that are marked as BAD
05/03/04: Update: 'istat' for FAT now shows recovery clusters for
deleted files.
05/04/04: Update: Added output to 'fsstat' for FAT file systems by adding
a list of BAD sectors and improving the amount of layout information. I
also changed some of the internal variables.
05/08/04: Update: Removed addr_bsize from FS_INFO, moved block_frags
to FFS_INFO, modified dcat output only data unit size.
05/20/04: Update: Added RECOVERY flag to 'ifind' so that it can find the
data units that are allocated to deleted files
05/20/04: Update: Added icat recovery options to 'sorter'.
05/20/04: Update: Improved the naming convention in sorter for the 'ils'
dead files.
05/21/04: Update: Added outlook to sorter rules (from David Berger)
05/27/04: Bug Fix: Added <linux/unistd.h> to mylseek.c so that it compiles
with Fedora Core 2 (Patch by Angus Marshall) (BUG: 961908).
05/27/04: Update: Changed the letter with 'fls -l' for FIFO to 'p'
instead of 'f' (reported by Dave Henkewick).
05/28/04: Update: Added '-u' flag to 'dcat' so that the data unit size
can be specified for raw, swap, and dls image types.
05/28/04: Update: Changed the size argument of 'dcat' to be number of
data units instead of size in bytes (suggestion by Harald Katzer).

03/06/04: Update: Fixed some memory leaks in ext2fs_close. reported
by Paul Bakker.
03/10/04: Bug Fix: If the '-s' flag was used with 'icat' on a EXT2FS

to STDOUT instead of logfp. (BUG: 913875)
04/14/04: Update: Added more data to fsstat output of FAT file system.
04/15/04: Bug Fix: The last sector of a FAT file system may not
be analyzed. (BUG: 935976)
04/16/04: Update: Added full support for swap and raw by making the

Suggested by (and initial patch by) Paul Baker.
04/18/04: Update: Changed error messages in EXT2/3FS code to be extXfs.
04/18/04: Update: Updaged to version 4.09 of 'file'. This will
help fix some of the problems people have had compiling it under

04/18/04: Update: Added compiling support for SFU 3.5 (Microsoft). Patches
from an anonymous person.
---------------- VERSION 1.68 --------------
01/20/04: Bug Fix: FAT times were an hour too fast during daylight savings.
Now use mktime() instead of manual calculation. Reported by Randall
Shane. (BUG: 880606)
02/01/04: Update: 'hfind -i' now reports the header entry as an invalid
entry. The first header row was ignored.
02/20/04: Bug Fix: indirect block pointer blocks would not be identified by
the ifind tool. Reported by Knut Eckstein (BUG: 902709)
03/01/04: Update: Added fs->seek_pos check to fs_read_random.
---------------- VERSION 1.67 --------------
11/15/03: Bug Fix: Added support for OS X 10.3 to src/makedefs. (BUG: 843029)
11/16/03: Bug Fix: Mac partition tables could generate an error if there were
VOID-type partitions. (BUG: 843366)
11/21/03: Update: Changed NOABORT messages to verbose messages, so invalid
data is not printed during 'ifind' searches.
11/30/03: Bug Fix: icat would not hide the 'holes' if '-h' was given because
the _UNALLOC flag was always being passed to file_walk. (reported by
Knut Eckstein). (BUG: 851873)
11/30/03: Bug Fix: NTFS data_walk was not using _ALLOC and _UNALLOC flags
and other code that called it was not either. (BUG: 851895)
11/30/03: Bug Fix: Not all needed commands were using _UNALLOC when they
called file_walk (although for most cases it did not matter because
sparse files would not be found in a directory for example). (Bug: 851897)
12/09/03: Bug Fix: FFS and EXT2FS code was using OFF_T type instead of
size_t for the size of the file. This could result in a file > 2GB
as being a negative size on some systems (BUG: 856957).
12/26/03: Bug Fix: ffind would crash for root directory of FAT image.
Added NULL check and added a NULL name to fake root directory entry.
(BUG: 871219)
01/05/04: Bug Fix: The clustcnt value for FAT was incorrectly calculated
and was too large for FAT12 and FAT16 by 32 sectors. This could produce
extra entries in the 'fsstat' output when the FAT is dumped.
(BUG: 871220)
01/05/04: Bug Fix: ils, fls, and istat were not printing the full size
of files that are > 2GB. (reported by Knut Eckstein) (BUG: 871457)
01/05/04: Bug Fix: The EXT2FS and EXT3FS code was not using the
i_dir_acl value as the upper 32-bits of regular files that are
> 2GB (BUG: 871458)
01/06/04: Mitigation: An error was reported where sorter would error
that icat was being passed a '-1' argument. I can't find how that would
happen, so I added quotes to all arguments so that the next time it
occurs, the error is more useful (BUG: 845840).
01/06/04: Update: Incorporated patch from Charles Seeger so that 'cc'
can be used and compile time warnings are fixed with Sun 'cc'.
01/06/04: Update: Upgraded file from v3.41 to v4.07
Comix 3.2.1
- Added support for the `rar` program in addition to `unrar` to handle
RAR (.cbr) files.
- Updated Polish translation by Kamil Leduchowski.
- Some minor changes.
Comix 3.2
- Changed PyGTK requirement to version 2.8 or higher.
- Added a "Fit width mode" and a "Fit height mode" that automatically
scales images to fit the width or height of the window.
- Default filenames for extracted images are changed to
<archive_name>_<page>.<ext> from <page>.<ext>.
- Moved the manga mode setting from the preferences dialog to the menus.
- Redesigned the library interface a bit. The background colour is now
fixed and does not change with the background colour of the main window.
Default thumbnail size is now 128x128 px, and thumbnails have a border to
make them more clearly separated.
- Added Greek translation by Paul Chatzidimitriou.
- Xie Yanbo updated the Simplified Chinese translation.
- Changed the menu icons for "Open library..." and "Add to library". The
icons are taken from the Silk Icons set at www.famfamfam.com.
- Broken images are now correctly handled by the thumbnail sidebar.
- The workaround against a problem with unrar applied in version 3.1.3 has
been removed again. It created some new problems with archives that
have multiple files with the same filename in different subdirectories.
- Fixed a bug so that translations and extra icons are always available
when running Comix from the source directory, no matter what directory is
the current working directory.
- Fixed a bug in the "Go to page dialog" that caused the page to not be
changed when manually typing in a new page number and pressing Enter.
- Some minor changes.
Comix 3.1.3
- Added Polish translation by Kamil Leduchowski.
- Updated French translation by Achraf Cherti.
Comix 3.1.2
- Fixed a bug which caused ALL files to be added to the library when
adding in recursive mode instead of just archives. Also, only files with
cbz, cbr or cbt as filename extension will now be added in recursive mode
to avoid adding cruft files with the same magic numbers as the archives.
Comix 3.1.1
- Added automatic dependency checking to install.py.
- Added error messages and graceful exit from Comix in the case of missing
dependencies.
- Applied a workaround for a bug(?) in unrar that caused problems with
some RAR archives containing directories with invalid filename encodings.
Thanks to François Ingelrest.
- Updated French translation by Achraf Cherti.
- Changed the "Use stored thumbnails for images in archives" preference to
off by default.
- Changed the "Go to the next archive in directory after last page"
preference to on by default.
Comix 3.1
- Created a new convert dialog that is built from the standard GTK+ save
dialog. It now supports saving in different directories etc.
- Added an "Extract image" menu item that lets you extract individual
images from the archive.
- Added support for recursive adding of archives to the library.
- Added a Frech translation by Achraf Cherti.
- Fixed a bug which rendered the magnifying lens and the ability to drag
images around with the mouse useless in some situations, and with some
certain versions (7.0?) of X.org.
- Pressing enter in the "Go to page" dialog entry now has the same effect
as pressing OK.
- Applied a workaround for a bug(?) in certain builds of PIL that made
Comix crash when it tried to draw page numbers on thumbnails. Now Comix
simply ignores the page numbers if this problem occurs and imforms the
user that a different version of PIL is required, instead of crashing.
Comix 3.0.1
- Added a Dutch translation by Arthur Nieuwland.
Comix 3.0
- Major cleanup of the entire code base.
- Completely redesigned the properties dialog.
- Comix now stores a list of the 10 last viewed files. It also updates the
~/.recently-used file as is proposed by the freedesktop.org standard.
Thanks to Jose M. daLuz.
- Added an "Add to library" menu item.
- Redesigned the library window slightly.
- Added an Italian translation by Raimondo Giammanco.
- The Nautilus thumbnailer, comicthumb, has been updated by Christoph Wolk
to support subarchives among other things.
- Added a preference to set the size of the magnifying lens. Thanks to
Jose M. daLuz.
- Added a scalable svg icon.
- Improved handling of files without read permission.
- Fixed a bug which caused the recommended name for a converted directory
of images to be the same as one of the image files plus filename extension
instead of the name of the directory plus filename extension. Thanks to
Manuel Quiñones.
- Fixed a bug with the magnifying lens which could appear when using it in
double page mode and manga mode, possibly showing the images as if not in
manga mode.
- Fixed a bug which caused unnecessary reloading of files from disk when
resizing images that is already in memory in double page mode.
- Fixed a bug which could cause the wrong image to be displayed when
continuously flipping forward really fast in cache mode.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 2.9
- Added a comic book library feature to Comix. Comic book archives can be
added to the library through a dialog or by drag and drop. The comic books
appear as covers in the library window where they can be browsed or
opened. They can be easily filtered by typing in regular expressions.
- When dropping multiple files on the Comix main window, the first file
gets opened now instead of none.
- The convert dialog now saves the last used archive type.
- Fixed a memory leak when creating new thumbnails from files.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 2.8
- MIME types for cbz, cbr and cbt archives are now registered by default.
Use the --no-mime flag for install.py to skip it.
- Added a thumbnailer (by Christoph Wolk) that lets file managers create
thumbnails for cbz, cbr and cbt archives. Currently it is only supported
by Nautilus and does not affect other file managers. It is installed if
the --no-mime flag is not given to install.py. Nautilus has to be
restarted before the thumbnailer is activated.
- Added a "Hide all" menu item which hides menubar, toolbar, statusbar,
scrollbars and thumbnails at once.
- Added an option to only display a single image in double page mode if
that image consists of two pages. An image is assumed to consist of two
pages if it's width is greater than it's height.
- Filename is now displayed as well as directory name when viewing images
in a directory in single page mode.
- Changed max zoom to 1000% to prevent X server resource drains.
- F11 can now be used to toggle fullscreen mode.
- Fixed a bug which caused the cursor to be invisible when dragging around
an image in fullscreen mode.
- Fixed a bug which removed the drag and drop functionality.
- Fixed a bug which could cause the scroll wheel to stop working when
displaying the magnifying lens by pressing the middle mouse button,
holding down the right mouse button and letting go the middle mouse button
again.
- Fixed a bug which could cause the chess board pattern background for
small transparent images to be zoomed in or out when changing size.
- Fixed a bug which could cause changes of saturation in small images to
not be updated when changing it and changing it back again.
- Fixed a bug which could cause the images to be scaled incorrectly when
the "Use smart scaling in double page mode" preference was set.
- Fixed a bug which caused the thumb selection not to be updated when
moving from page two to page one in double page mode.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 2.7
- Improved image quality through dithering in 16 bits per pixel. Thanks to
John Ellis, the author of GQview, for helping me with this.
- Added previews of files in the "Open" dialog. Stored thumbnails are used
when they exist, otherwise previews are created directly from the files.
Previews of archives are also available, but only when thumbnails have
already been stored for that archive.
- The cursor is now only being hidden when it has been idle for two
seconds instead of always.
- Changed "Hide cursor in fullscreen mode" to on by default.
- Added chess board pattern as background for transparent images.
- Added file filters to the "Open" dialog.
- Saturation adjustment now affects the magnifying lens also.
- Added Brazilian Portuguese translation by Marcelo Góes.
- Added German translation by Christoph Wolk.
- Added a "comix.xml" file which can be installed to register cbz, cbr and
cbt mime types. Because of inconsistency on some systems, mime types are
not registered by default. Follow the instructions in the mime README file
to install. Thanks to Cristoph Wolk for this contribution.
- Changed permissions of temporary folders to octal 700 to preserve the
users privacy.
- Added page number information to thumbnails generated for archives. This
information will displayed for previews of archives if available.
- Fixed a bug which caused the image width and height information embedded
in thumbnails to be put in the wrong namespace of the PNG tEXt chunks.
- Fixed possible wrong permissions of thumbnail folders on some systems.
Permissions should now always be 700.
- Fixed a bug which caused the magnifying lens to display the wrong page
in manga mode (thanks Christoph Wolk).
- Fixed a bug which could cause Comix to crash when trying to view a very
small image scaled down so that it contained no pixels at all.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 2.6
- Comix now conforms to the thumbnail managing standard as proposed by
freedesktop.org. Thumbnails for plain image files can be read and written
to ~/.thumbnails where they are shared with other applications conforming
to the same standard. Thumbnails for images in archives can also be
stored, but due to limitations in the standard they are stored in ~/.comix
for private use by Comix only.
- Improved handling of corrupt and missing files. Comix now simply
displays a "file missing" image instead of terminating.
- Added a menu entry for the lens toggle action.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 2.5
- Added a mouse controlled "magnification lens" that can be used to zoom
in on parts of the images. It will appear while holding the middle mouse
button. Pressing 'z' can also toggle it on or off.
- Added the ability to set the size of the thumbnails.
- Improved the look of the bookmark handling features. Small thumbnails
will now be displayed for the bookmarks.
- Fixed a bug which caused one of the two images in double page mode to
remain displayed even after using the "Close" command.
- Fixed a bug which caused the "Use smart scaling in double page mode"
preference to misbehave with rotated images.
- Fixed a bug which caused the convert dialog to not automatically fill in
a new filename for files with non-UTF8 filenames.
- Some minor fixes.
Comix 2.4.1
- Improved cache handling slightly.
- FIxed a bug which could cause Comix to crash when starting with the
"Save window position and size for future sessions" option turned on.
- Fixed a bug which caused only one thumbnail to remain selected when
clicking on the first of the two selected thumbnails in double page mode.
- Fixed a bug which caused Comix to always go to the first page when
reloading thumbnails in double page mode due to switching the "Show page
numbers on thumbnails" on or off.
Comix 2.4
- Added full support for internationalization (i18n). Apart from English,
Comix is now translated to Swedish, Simplified Chinese and Spanish.
- Added an option to let Comix automatically adjust the contrast of the
images so that the darkest pixel is completely black and the lightest
pixel is completely white.
- Added an option to space key "smart scrolling" feature as if in double
page mode even when in single page mode.
- Added thin borders around the thumbnails so that they should be more
easily distinguished.
- Added accelerators for more menu items.
- Fixed a bug which caused the wrong image to be displayed when viewing
the third last and the second last pages in double page mode, exiting
double page mode and flipping forward one page.
- Fixed a bug which caused Comix to display no warning when trying to
create a file in a directory where it does not have permission to do so.
Comix 2.3
- Comix now depends on the Python Imaging Library
(http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/) to handle some image
manipulations.
- Added the ability to rotate and mirror images.
- Added an option to set the contrast of the images.
- Added an option to show the page numbers in the upper left corner of
each thumbnail.
- Cleaned up the preferences dialog a bit.
- The arrow keys now flips pages in fit-to-screen mode.
- Added an option to go to the same directory as last time when opening
the "Open" dialog, instead of always going to a preset directory.
- Fixed a bug which caused comments to not be displayed until after all
thumbnails had been loaded when using the "Always view comments when
opening a new file" option.
- Fixed a bug which caused comment files in a directory, had their
extensions been added to the comment extensions list while the directory
was loaded, to not be opened correctly until the directory had been
reloaded.
- Fixed a bug which caused the scrollbars to not align themselves
automatically when switching between viewing comments and viewing images.
- Fixed a bug which caused the "Fit width", "Fit height" and "Best fit"
commands to scale incorrectly when viewing thumbnails.
- Fixed a bug which could cause the wrong image to be displayed if
switching from one page to another and back again really quickly.
- Some minor fixes.

NEW IN VERSION 3.5.17
---------------------
- Various enhancement of DDJVUAPI
- Compiles with the GCC-4.1.
- Compiles with the SunCC compiler.
- Command line utilities compile under WIN32
using MSVC using the provided project files.
- Minor bug fixes in csepdjvu text extraction.
- Fixed leak in csepdjvu, cpaldjvu and cjb2.
nzb files and fully processes them. The goal being to make getting files from
Usenet as hands-free as possible. Once fully installed, all thats required is
moving an nzb file to the queue directory. The rest; fetching, par-checking,
un-raring, etc. is taken care of by hellanzb.
