More fixes & improvements. Check your updates B-)

New update added -- v13.7.17.0 -- see here for the goodies. Recent Change-log:

gate directives, etc.)

Sorry, guys. That previous fix for SetupS spawning out of control didn't quite take. Check your updates B-)

FIX: Under certain conditions the patch folder (named "Patch") would get copied to the 
     installed-to path as well as its contents.
FIX: Deleting items was defaulting to the Recycle-Bin.
CHANGE: Reverted back to the old method of seeking SetupS files (.app/ppg, .apz/.ppg, etc.).
CHANGE: Re-enabled logging/debugging options.
FIX: An extra check added to validate shortcuts listed in the keep list.

This update -- the "7.19 series" -- fixes a lot of difficult and hard to find problems recently. I.e., some fixes were causing new bugs. :wtf:

Many thanks to Trouba for bringing some of these to light and his patience in helping troubleshoot them in the background.

Check your updates. New update added -- v14.1 -- see here for the goodies.

Mostly polishing the code, finishing the help-file, etc. but mainly to have Bintray checked first for updates -- after January 14th we'll be losing GoogleCode as a distribution source. Recent Change-log:

Code: Select all

ADD: Ability to change the order of where to get updates from the list of alternate
     distribution sites.
ADD: SetupS (ssApp-version only) added to the Path environment variable for 
     Run-dialogs/Command-windows.
ADD: New ssCleaner switches (DudInstallPaths|NotDudInstallPaths, or DeepScan|NoDeepScan) for
     the folder removal functions. Multiple settings are comma-separated, like so:
         -ssClean=StartMenuOnly,NoDeepScan
CHANGE: The check for removed Startmenu items is now a separate option from the type of
        ssClean (for either StartmenuOnly or AllShortcuts). This option simply allows for
        automatic ssCleaning whenever shortcuts are removed such as during Startmenu Style
        changes.

Posted: **Tue Jan 14, 2014 5:54 pm**

Check your updates. New update added -- v14.1.14 -- see here for the goodies.

Code: Select all

FIX: Fadertainer stalling on certain archives.
FIX: Legacy archives (using "SetupS.ini") not working.

     @TempDir use is sufficient.

ADD: PC Settings to MenuDefaults.ini.

About time! It's been a while since the last update. Many thanks to Glenn for picking up the slack -- half the fixes were his. B-)

FIX: Line-endings with AddToHosts.
FIX: Problem with ssEditor not resetting Flags in-between builds.

Posted: **Mon Nov 23, 2015 8:50 pm**

Check your updates. New update added -- v15.11.23.0 -- see here for the goodies. Recent Change-log:

Code: Select all

ADD: Hotkey support for shortcut definitions. (Check Help-file for proper codes and syntax)
FIX: Shortcuts Start-in folder getting blanked when same as Install-to folder. Alternatively,
  the special path "." is also the same as the Install-to folder.
CHANGE: With the exception of filenames using the build-type scheme or the Install-to
  folder-name, ssEditor no longer automatically renames files to the filename scheme.
  This must be done manually now with the "Force Assign" function from the Graphics-tab.
CHANGE: ssEditor no longer automatically deletes identical files (with different file names).
  This must be done manually now (from Explorer).
CHANGE: Updated 7-Zip to 15.12

Still have the Windows10 default Startmenu to finish but that is taking longer than expected; so decided to do an interim-release this time of the new features completed so far.

     definitions.

Code: Select all

ADD: Better support for Windows 10.
ADD: [ssControlPanel] Option to disable sorting/organizing the Default Startmenu shortcuts.

The help file is mostly updated with the recent changes. It just needs the screen-shots updated next.

The help file is nearly complete. It just needs needs to reflect the most recent changes here (as of v15.12.21).

Check your updates. New update added -- v16.4.1.1 -- see here for the goodies. Recent Change-log:

Code: Select all

FIX: [ssEditor] Problems caused by edge-case filenames being used with deployment packages. 
     For example, a file named "Patch.job" would not get processed correctly because it 
     matches one of the SetupS-file specs: "Patch.*" 
FIX: [ssEditor] Logic errors involving various presence (or lack) of Patch folder-name usage.  
     i.e. "ppApp\" vs. "Patch\" and if one or the other (or both) are used.

A couple minor tweaks to ssEditor.

EDIT: Nuked v16.4.1.0 -- "ssApp.app" was left off the new white-list for Fix #1 above. Doh!

:shock:

Posted: **Fri Apr 08, 2016 3:22 am**

Check your updates. New update added -- v16.4.7.0 -- see here for the goodies. Recent Change-log:

Code: Select all

FIX: [ssEditor] Calculated extracted install-size (for ppApps/ppGames) was being saved *after*
     the md5 file-hash calculations -- as a consequence the .app/.ppg file-hash would be off.

Another minor tweak to ssEditor.

B-)

Posted: **Sat May 07, 2016 6:14 pm**

Check your updates. New update added -- v16.5.8.0 -- see here for the goodies. Recent Change-log:
