X-Finder R.11 beta 11
=====================

Dear beta testers,

Thank you for waiting. Beta 11 is now complete at last.
Please test this version and report the results.

Notes:
- cursor.icn should be in the same directory as finder.env.
- Adding frames to icons in the wallpaper mode is not supported yet, 
  due to the lack of time and memory. I will work on it in R.12.

Changes from X-Finder R.11 beta 10 are:
 o Search orders are changed for the environment files.
 o Now supports customized mouse cursor and hourglass.
 o New command for sorting mode
 o New power management of the serial port
 o Changed the behavior of the preview window
 o Modification of the disk space display

[1] Search orders are changed for the environment files.

  X-Finder now searches for its environment file first in A: and then  
  in  C:.  X-Finder now can act differently depending on the existence 
  of a flash disk. (Thanks to the proposal from Mr. Alan Krempler)

  The search order is:
  A:\FINDER -> C:\FINDER -> C:\_DAT -> A:\_DAT

[2] Now supports customized mouse cursor and hourglass.
  Mouse cursor and hourglass are now defined by cursor.icn, placed in 
  the same directory as the environmental file finder.env.
  
  Hourglass A is defined in the area (0,0) to (15,15) of the icon 
  file. Hourglass B is defined in the area (24,0) to (39,15) of the 
  icon file.

  The mouse cursor is defined in the area (16,16) to (16, 31) of the 
  icon file. The background mask for the mouse cursor is defined in 
  the area (39,16) to (39, 31) of the icon file. The background mask
  defines the transparent area of the mouse cursor.

  Note:
  - To disable the mouse cursor, rename the bundled nocursor.icn to 
    cursor.icn and replace the original cursor.icn with it.

[3] New command for sorting mode

A new command is introduced to change the sort mode. The argument 
is the same as the parameter for %s in the environmental file.

$s	Change sort mode according to the following string

$s	0001
#	|||+-Directory sort:        0:Off  1:Name  2:Type  3:Size  4:Date
#	||+--Directory sort order:  0:Incremental 1:Decremental
#	|+---Palmtop sort:          0:Off  1:Name  2:Type  3:Size  4:Date
#	+----Palmtop sort order:    0:Incremental 1:Decremental

[4] New power management of the serial port

Now X-Finder can control the power of the serial port, when the HP-LX 
runs on battery. You may want to set this to '1', if you use the 
serial port, for example, for a Newton keyboard.

Setting in finder.env:
#Key mode
%n	010
#	||+- Key mode:            0:Incermental search  1:Command
#	|+-- Viewer key mode:     0:Tag jump  1:Command
#	+--- Switch off the serial power:  0:Off  1:No

[5] Changed the behavior of the preview window

  Preview window is now refreshed after moving to the opposite window 
  or executing a command.

[6] Modification of the disk space display

  The disk space is not displayed in the directory with a character 
  '^' in its name.
