Release Notes for 4.0RC5 October 2003.

- 4.0.9 RC5 (October 1, 2003)

• Fixed a serious bug with the Multi-Browser engine. Now SX load correctly the secondary browsers url.
• Fixed main window resizing problem.
• Fixed some other minor bugs with the gui.
• Fixed the SIGENV bug that could happend during the url search.

4.0.8.3 RC4 (August 25, 2003)

• A problem with the Internet Explorer Importer Engine was finally fixed. If you have a customized bookmarks file that contains one or more separators ("-" blank menu items) SafariXtra will crash after one or two seconds from it's launch. Now this problem was fixed but actually SX ignore these particular menu items. I plan to update the engine in one of the next updates.
• A good news! I have found a workaround for a strange problems that show the SX windows in background (under the other windows...). Now all seems to be ok and all SX windows show at the top of the other system windows.
• Since this version (and until the official version) SafariXtra implement it's internal debugger. If you encounter a problem you can active the internal debugger and send the log to me in order to solve the possible bug. To do it open the com.westcode.safarixtra pref file (located into the Prefereces folder) and add the key "Debugger" (note that the name is case sensitive) and set it's numeric value to 1. Then launch the program and when it quits send to me the "SafariXtra MEM" folder (located in your home directory).
• Now the preferences window "Apply changes" button function correctly.
• You can add SafariXtra into your Automatic Login Applications! (remove the old copies of SX from your hard disk!)

- 4.0.8.2 RC3 (August 14, 2003)

• A big problem was finally solved: if in your Address Book you have a people (or more) with no name associated (but with an URL) SX crash at startup (after one or two seconds the menu bar icon will be removed). Now SX call these people "Unknown Name"; i'll post a major upgrade for Address Book manager with the fourth release candidate of SafariXtra. This RC3 is patch to continue to use this software until the next RC4 without this strange problem.

- 4.0.8.1 RC2 (August 12, 2003)

• An old bug was fixed. If you have bookmarks that contains '>' characters SafariXtra could crash at startup.
• SafariXtra now supports the new Safari fav icon format (you can use this feature only with Safari 1.0 v85. Thanks to Doug Brown for his SIM - Safari Icon Manager - internal engine)
• With some computers SX crash when loading an empty bookmark title (SX call it "Unknown Title").
• The registration method is now changed (easy to locate using the "About" menu item)
• Fixed (not sure. help me to verify it in your computer) a bug that crash SX at startup. The crashlog file report an exception on menu manager: Invalid parameter not satisfying: aTitle != nil. If the problem persist contact me.
