Version 1.3.1:
o Main window splitter position is now saved on exit and restored
on startup (bug#1074737)
o Default archive storage directory is now saved in the configuration
dialogs (bug#1073570)
o Fixed bug where "//"'s directory paths crashes KDar
(bug#1071164).
o Updated admin directory with latest KDE (3.3.1) (bug#1075570).
o Total time for archive operation is displayed properly if
it is less than 1 second (bug#1076005).
o Now the default archive storage directory is prepended to the
archive of reference during differential creation, if the ref
archive is not an absolute path (bug#1079028).
Version 1.3.0:
o Significant code rewrite to approximate the model-view-controller
architecture. New classes KDarThread and controller (abstract).
o Cancel button has been disabled since thread cancellation in
libdar 2.x is unreliable. Use kdar-2.0.0 CVS is you must have
the ability to cancel libdar operations.
o Now most of the libdar messages are sent to the statusBar. This
prevents kdar from slowing down verbose operations on large
archives.
o Splash screen now shows kdar version.
o New logging facility. User can specify log file, and verbosity level.
o Basic log viewer has been implemented.
o Now the equivalent dar commandlines are printed to the log file for
each operation that is performed.
o Create and restore dialogs let you export the equivalent
dar command line.
o Spanish translation. Thanks to Mauro Esteve for providing it.
o Now users cannot create archives using directory filters that are
not subdirectories of the root directory. (See Bug#1061114).
o Fixed bug#1013839, where extraction directory was not saved in
restoration profiles.
o Fixed "Remove All" file filters bug#1024879.
o Fixed profile-loading bug#1044696.
Version 1.2.0:
o Added basic printing functionality for message window output.
o Message window can be cleared.
o New configuration class.
o File browser, message window, and status bar fonts are now
configurable from the kdar settings dialog.
o Backup profiles allow user to save and restore creation and
extraction settings.
o Creation messages are displayed in the statusbar. This
prevents KDar from slowing down for large archives.
o Feedback on current slice and its size are displayed in
statusbar during archive creation.
o Mistakes in creation configuration are caught, and user can
try to fix them. Previous behaviour was to cancel the operation
altogether.
o New directory filter type "Auto", which indicates that the
filter was generated automatically by KDar.
o "Open recent" added to file menu. Got rid of the droplist.
o First slices sizes of all media types can be changed.
o String substitution in new archive name (in creation dialog).
o Displays a splash screen on startup.
o Progress indicator in statusbar during creation indicates
percentage of files that have been added to the archive.
Version 1.1.1:
o Help dialog now shows libdar version.
o Fixed crash when user enters a new archive name without
a full path (Bug #975982).
o Now KDar asks new users for a default backup directory. Now user just
needs an archive name when creating new archives.
Version 1.1.0:
o KDar now uses QT threads to call libdar operations. As a
result, GUI responsiveness is restored.
o QListViewItem changed to kdarListViewItem in kdardialog.cpp
o Fixed bug #899090 (Crash when right-clicking in tree list view).
o Fixed bug #894637 (unexpected sort behaviour on size and date).
o Fixed bug #907520 (Exclude/Include problem).
o Now filter dialogs show previous values within a session
o New Create Archive Wizard. It's enabled by default.
o New class archiveHandle checks archive names for
proper format.

if "*/tmp" were selected as a directory filter during
archive creation.
o Archives are now opened without asking the user to verify
whether the .*.dar suffix should be removed.
o Changelog now reports changes in reverse chronological order
and has been merged with 1.0 release Changelog.
o Now double-clicking on the archive name in the file list view
lists the archive contents if the archive has not already been
viewed ("View archive"). Suggested by Alban Minassian.
o The archive browser now shows icons according to a file's
mimetype (suggested by Alban Minassian).
o Only integers are allowed to be entered into the slice size
lineEdit fields.
o Main window now has splitter layout to allow user to adjust
relative sizes of the archive browser and messages panes.
o User can now select slice sizes from a list of common
media types.
o Fixed bug #933828 (crash on exit if "select archive" appears in
archive combobox).
o Fixed bug #935172 (directory filter editing bugs).
o Fixed bug where kdar crashed with double-click on empty part of
archive browser window.
o Fixed bug #936940 (kdar freezes as root trying to create archive).
o Now statusbar is used to display status of libdar operations.
Version 1.1.0-beta1-beta3:
o All changes incoporated into version 1.1.0 list.
Version 1.0.0: (040208)
o KDar now users libdar 2.1.0, with modified LIBDAR_MODE switch.
o Otherwise, it's the same as kdar-1.0-beta3
Version 1.0.0-beta3: (040125)
o Create archive dialog now has KLineEdit for command to
execute after each slice has been created. Use this
for running xcdroast, or mkisofs | cdrecord, PArchive,
etc.
o "Credits" tab added to "About KDar" dialog
o "About KDar" dialog now reports libdar features, such as
largefile support, integer bit-size, etc.
o Slice size and First slice size are now stored as strings
in kdarrc (configuration file). The user can now choose
the slice size units from a droplist (B, kB, MB, GB, TB).
Version 1.0.0-beta2:
o Code cleanups thanks to Sven Bergner (031228)
--- removed using namespace instructions to help
readability of code for newcomers
--- changed #defines to const declarations to make
them typesafe and debuggable.
o Largefile support problem fixed.
Version 1.0.0-beta1 = Version 0.4
Version 0.4 (031209):
o KDar now uses libdar API version 2.
o Implemented context menu in tree-view: only extracts files
at the moment
o Added several compression filters to default list
o Compression and file filters now saved on exit, and
restored when starting program again.
o lastArchive entry in kdarrc is now stored without the
.[1-9][0-9]*.dar ending
o KDar no longer opens the lastArchive on startup, in case
the lastArchive is a large file (which causes long
startup times).
o If archive is not open when user hits "read archive", it
is opened automatically.
o Changed several QT widgets to their KDE counterparts.
o archiveFileView layout is now stored in config file.
o Added restore dialog
o Now restore configuration options are set in the restore
dialog. No longer set in the settings dialog. kdarrc has
been modified to reflect the change.
o Drag-n-Drop still works, but you have to drop in the
right place in the main window. The KListView does
not accept drops. Any ideas why? This worked properly
when I was using a plain old QListView.
o Open archive action is now under the "File" menu.
o Test run (dry run) capability in restoration now.
o KHelpCenter help pages added for KDar.
Version 0.3.4 (031112):
o Added separate directory filters dialog: can choose standard
directories from list (/proc,/dev/pts,/tmp,/var/tmp),
or custom choice.
o Create archive now automatically excludes the directory
containing the new archive if it is a subdirectory of the root.
o #include <dar/tools.hpp> instead of #include "tools.hpp"
o removed tools.hpp and tuyau.hpp from kdar source directory
Version 0.3.3 (031109):
o Fixed configure for building --- now the -DMODE=?? directive
is set, instead of putting #define MODE ?? in config.h. The
config.h method doesn't put libdar into the required MODE.
o All KDar icons made. Improvements welcome!
o Extraction of specific subdirectories, and individual files is
now possible by selecting items in the file list view, with
the control key, and shift key. Extraction of a single directory
without its contents is not implemented yet, but should be.
Version 0.3.2 (031030):
o Another compilation error fixed: libdar64 and its header
are searched automatically by configure, so you don't need
to add -DMODE=64 to $CXXFLAGS at configure time. You can
also specify which libdar to use (32-bit, 64-bit, or
infinite-bit integer support).
o Added more KDar action icons
o Now exceptions are handled properly thanks to an updated libdar.
o modified INSTALL and added USAGE
o Implemented filename filters. Now directory, filename, and
compression filters work.
Version 0.3.1 (031028):
o Fixed some compilation errors thanks to Andreas Pour.
#including libdar.hpp now automatic with dar-2.0.0-pre2
and above, by #including dar/libdar.hpp, etc.
Version 0.3 (031026):
o New KDar icon
o toolbar added to kdarui.rc
o hicolor icons should be installed automatically
Version 0.2.1 (031025):
o Fixed bug where directories were not excluded from the
archive during a create.
Version 0.2 (031024):
o Added directory tab in creation dialog. Still have to
implement file filters though.
o Drag-n-drop works for .dar files: the archive is
automatically listed as well.
o Got rid of useless "FileOpen, newFile, etc." slots.
Version 0.1.1:
o Fixed compression filters. Now files actually
are excluded from compression.
Version 0.1: (September 2003?)
o Initial version.
First release, version 0.1 October 09, 2003
