[Passwordsafe-users] Announcing PasswordSafe 3.30 (Windows) and 0.9Beta (Linux)

[ronys <ro...@gm...>]

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.30 for Windows, as
well as a new Beta release, 0.9, for Linux. This is a maintenance release,
fixing a few minor issues, as described below. Thanks to Matt, shivak7,
suthakar123, nsaipraveen, sauravg and pm_kan for their help in this release,
and to pm_kan, Karlo, Bjorne and mniklas for updating the Russian, German,
Swedish and Polish translations. Thanks also to all the users who have
provided bug reports, suggestions, and the occasional donation...

New Features for 3.30
=====================
[689] It's now possible to change the r/w state of a database when unlocking
it. Thanks to Jeff for the suggestion.

Bugs fixed in 3.30
==================
[3556730] In Add/Edit dialog, clicking Apply no longer disables the OK
button. An asterisk (*) is displayed in the title bar when the entry's
modified and Apply's not clicked upon. Thanks to shivak7 for the fix.
[3539347] An empty diamond icon is now updated to a full one when an entry
is dragged into it. Thanks to nsaipraveen for the fix.
[3537861] An off-by-one issue with expiration dates has been fixed by
suthakar123.
[1066] Default changed: 'Browse to URL' does not copy password to clipboard
by default. Although convenient, this is a security issue if the user isn't
expecting it. Also show correct screen in Security Options help.
[1065] Don't hide notes in Add/Edit dialog box when changing field focus if
user chose not to.
[1063] Intermediate backups also work correctly when relative path to
database is specified on command line. Thanks to Matt for tracking this
down.
[353] Easy-to-read option now respected in Generate Password screen.
[] Update ListView immediately when an entry's field has been changed.

The U3 and PasswordSafe2Go versions will be updated soon and available from
