The 1.0 release candidate is finally ready. If no major bugs are found, this is the version that will be used for Fileside’s public launch.

Faster transfers and fixed handling of bad filenames.

This is intended to be the last build before 1.0, picking up a few of the remaining little issues and annoyances.

Fixes for symlink-related crash bugs and improvements to sorting and the context menu are the order of the day.

A small bugfix release to fix an annoying crash bug that crept in with the last pre-release commit.

After a hiatus of a few months, Fileside is back with a vengeance, with what’s intended to be the last beta version before launching publicly. As such, it contains the feature set planned for version 1.0.

This release finally fixes some long-known bugs, and adds support for multiple Fileside windows.

Working with layouts is now less of a plight, thanks to bright-looking colours that seduce and delight.

A small update adding standard icons for each file and folder. And some bug fixes.

I’ve been cave diving for the last few weeks. Exploring the depths of a particularly ancient, largely abandoned cave, harbouring a bewildering array of monsters with names such as CF_HDROP, SFGAOF, DV_E_FORMATETC and PCZZWSTR. Throughout the centuries, they’ve also had pet names like pdsh, g_pszTarget and m_rgfe lovingly bestowed upon them, to further confound the novice explorer. Prying the secrets from their withered claws required many attempts and a host of different tactics.
