Hi,

A last minute bug forced me to replace the files. Here's the same

Sorry about the confusion.

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.26. This release

well as support for:
Chinese (full), Dutch (partial), French (full), German (full), Korean
(partial), Russian (full), Swedish (full), Danish (partial), Polish
(partial), and Spanish (full).
(If you're interested in supporting your language, please let me know.)

A new beta release of the Linux version will be ready soon, and announced on
the passwordsafe-linux mailing list
(https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/passwordsafe-linux).

Thanks to:
- Bert, Bjorn, Jose, Karlo, mniklas and pm_kan, for their translation
efforts and feedback on this release,

New Features for 3.26
=======================
[3288341] Autotype has been added to the DragBar. Drag the image to an input
area on another Window (e.g., Browser) and PasswordSafe will begin Autotype
from there. 
[3286721] User can now toggle between read-only and read-write modes via a
menu item or by double-clicking on the current R-O or R/W indicator in the
Status Bar.
[3203152] The displayed language can now be changed via the new
Manage->Change Language menu.
[3065111] Add/Edit now displays both the Application's (PasswordSafe) and
the current database's default Autotype string (if set via Manage->Options).
[2964804, 1855389] The user can specify the list of symbols valid for
password generation, and can override this for any particular entry (except
when EasyVision or  pronounceable passwords are chosen).
[1831893, 1471134] Added Autotype code "\s" to send "Shift+Tab" (back tab).
[] Allow user to control copying of the password to clipboard when
performing "Browse to URL" via an option in Options->Security. This is a
database option i.e., you can have different setting for different
databases.
[] Support importing of TXT, CSV files and XML exported from KeePass V1 and
KeePass V2 XML files. Note that KeePass V2's export in the V1 format is does
not conform to their own format as specified by their V1 product and can not
be imported. Please review our Help file for the settings in KeePass
required during their export. 

Changes to Existing Features in 3.26
======================================
[] New image on start-up dialog - courtesy of user Prinz_Eugen.
[] Polish installation texts added thanks to Michal Niklas.
[] An entry's password expiry date is set or cleared directly rather than
using the Set and Clear buttons after changing values.
[] The default password generation policy is now for 12 character passwords
that include symbol characters (previous default was 8, no symbols).
[] Unknown database header fields and unknown entry fields are no longer
exported when a database is exported to XML as there is no mechanism to
re-check them during import. Exporting to XML and then importing to a new
database can be used to remove these unknown fields.
[] Date time fields, when exported to XML, now are in the W3C dateTime
standard format instead of PasswordSafe's.  This release can import XML
files with date time fields in either of these forms. The next release will
only be able to process the W3C standard.
[] Fully support importing of TXT files exported from KeePass V1 including
the Group Tree structure, URL and date time fields. Please review the online
help for more details.

Bugs fixed in 3.26
====================
[3325116] Users can no longer select an entry via the System Tray icon's
Recent Entry menu if the display has not been restored after minimize or
unlock.
[3306357, 3062632, 2888026] User preference changes are now correctly saved.
This includes allowing user to change database preferences when the database
is read-only.
[3303018] Filters with quotes in their name are now correctly exported,
imported and displayed in the Manage Filters dialog.
[3301904] Export XML, export Text and the export of filters functions now
process file names and paths containing non-Latin characters.  In addition,
missing directories in the specified path are created as neeeded.
[3234204] PasswordSafe no longer exits if the command flag is set to "-s
<databasename>".
[3088187] The correct entry in List View is now used for Autotype when using
the keyboard to select the entry when PasswordSafe first opens.
[] Controls in Edit are now disabled if entry is protected.
[] Compare databases now correctly compares the 'Protect' and password
policy 'symbols' fields of entries.

The U3 and PasswordSafe2Go versions will be updated soon and available from
https://www.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=2031906
and
https://www.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=2880062

[Passwordsafe-announce] Announcing PasswordSafe 3.25

[Announcements of i. to u. a. d. of P. <pas...@li...>]

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.25. This release
has a couple of nice new features, as described below, some bug fixes, as
well as support for:
Chinese (full), Dutch (partial), French (full), German (full), Korean
(partial), Russian (full), Swedish (full), Danish (partial), Polish
(partial), and Spanish (full).
(If you're interested in supporting your language, please let me know.)

As of this release, we're unlinking the release cycle of the Linux Beta
versions from the Window releases. See the end of this announcement for more
information regarding the Linux releases.

Thanks to:
- Bert, Bjorn, Francois, Fred, freedoctor, Jose, Karlo, Kees, pm_kan,
poserpro and Seunggyun for their translation efforts and feedback on this
release,
- The PasswordSafe testers for vetting this release,
- DK for his work and patience,
- Sauravg and pm_kan for their work on the Linux beta,
- All the users who provide feedback, bug reports, suggestions and the
occasional donation...

New Features for 3.25
=======================
Dutch installation instructions thank to Kees, and a first (incomplete)
Dutch translation of the application thank to Bert, Kees and Fred.
[] Korean texts in the application and installer program thanks to
Seunggyun.
[] Poserpro has provided Traditional Chinese texts for the installer
program.
[] New View menu option: Show entries with Expiry. This is useful for
displaying entries with passwords that are expired or about to expire.

Changes to Existing Features in 3.25
======================================
[3171962] The password expiration warning mechanism now checks for
expiration daily. The display of expired and almost-expired entries has been
redesigned, allowing users to update the entry directly. When an expired
password is changed, the expiry date will be cleared unless there is a
recurring password expiry interval, in which case a new expiry date will be
calculated.
[3131945] Double-clicking on the system tray icon when PasswordSafe is not
minimized now brings it to front, instead of minimizing.
[3131935] Rename of an entry or group in the Tree View can now only be
performed via the Rename shortcut (default value F2), using the Edit menu or
the right-click context menu. Edit in place by double clicking the entry is
no longer allowed as, most of the time, this was not the desired action.
[] Filtered views are now updated when an entry's edited, e.g., if an entry
is edited such that it no longer satisfies the filter's criteria, it will be
removed from the display. 
[] The Russian online help has been totally rewritten and updated, thanks to
pm_kan.
[] pm_kan has updated the Russian texts.
[] The Spanish texts have been updated thanks to Jose.
[] Karlo has updated the German texts.
[] Francois has updated the French texts.
[] Bjorne has updated the Swedish version.
[] freedoctor has updated the Chinese texts.


Bugs fixed in 3.25
====================
[3194472] Fix new group creation location. When a Group is selected, then
selecting 'Add Group' from the Edit menu or from the context menu displayed
by right clicking on that Group, the new group will be a child of the
selected group. However, when using the context menu displayed on right
clicking on 'white space' below the last entry/group displayed, the group
will be created at the topmost level. 
[3165889] No longer crashes if search starts with Shift-Enter (search
backwards).
[3148701] Windows installer will now refuse to install on Win2K, referring
user to last supported version on that OS (3.18).
[3115760] Window view is now saved and restored if the user uses the Windows
"Show Desktop" feature.
[] No longer crashes when doing an Undo after a Merge.
[] Ensure Undo/Redo honour the changes to the display of the original
change.


The U3 and PasswordSafe2Go versions will be updated soon and available from
https://www.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=2031906
and
https://www.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=2880062
respectively.

[Announcements of i. to u. a. d. of P. <pas...@li...>]

Hi,

It seems that 3.24 had a nasty last-minute bug that crept in, causing it to
crash when unlocking or switching databases. The good news is that this was

Thanks to donw146, gillum, john886 and mrttoo for reporting the problem in
an effective manner, and to DK for his quick fix.
(The problem was Windows-specific - the Linux version is unaffected)

[Passwordsafe-announce] Announcing Linux Beta and PasswordSafe2Go

[Announcements of i. to u. a. d. of P. <pas...@li...>]

 Hi,

In addition to the regular bug fixes and improvements to PasswordSafe, we've
been working on a couple of other things that we'd like to announce:

1. PasswordSafe for Linux Beta
This is a port of the same 'core' cryptographic code wrapped around a new,
portable,  user interface (wxWidgets). What this means is that databases
created with the Windows version of PasswordSafe are fully compatible with
the Linux port, and vice versa.
Many thanks to Saurav, the lead developer for the Linux version, for his
time, effort and patience.

Ubuntu users can download the beta from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/passwordsafe/files/Linux-BETA/passwordsafe-u
buntu-0.1-1.deb/download
Debian users should download from this link:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/passwordsafe/files/Linux-BETA/passwordsafe-d
ebian-0.1-1.deb/download
Please read the release notes (README.LINUX) for details on how to install
this on your machine.

2. PasswordSafe2Go
As you may know, I've been offering a version of PasswordSafe tailored for
the U3 disk-on-key system. The main advantage of this product is that it
packs PasswordSafe and your database on a disk-on-key, making it very
convenient for use across several machines.
PasswordSafe2Go is a similar product, tailored for use with any disk-on-key,
not only U3-enabled devices.
Although the 'regular' PasswordSafe can be used on a disk-on-key, both of
these products are more suitable for non-expert users who wish to run
PasswordSafe from a disk-on-key.
You can purchase PasswordSafe2Go from
https://www.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=2880062
and Passwordsafe for U3 from
https://www.plimus.com/jsp/buynow.jsp?contractId=2031906

Cheers,

  Rony

[Passwordsafe-announce] Announcing PasswordSafe 3.22

[Announcements of i. to u. a. d. of P. <pas...@li...>]

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.22. This release
has a couple of nice new features, as described below, some bug fixes, as
well as support for:
Danish (full), French (full), German (full), Swedish (full), Russian (full),
Chinese (partial), Polish (partial), and Spanish (partial).
(If you're interested in supporting your language, please let me know.)

Thanks to Rejmond, Karlo, Bjorn, pm_kan, freedoctor and Francois for their
translation efforts and feedback on this release.
Many thanks to DK for his work and patience, and of course thanks to all the
users who provide feedback, bug reports, suggestions and the occasional
donation...


New Features for 3.22
=====================
[] Support for Danish has been added - thanks to Rejmond for his effort in
translating!
[2983775] Recently Used Entries are now saved in the database header and so
are "persistent".  The current Windows user interface limits this to a
maximum of the last 25 entries accessed.
[2980609] Allow date filters to use relative dates
[2979411] A single entry can now be exported to a text or XML file via the
Edit menu or right-click context menu.
[2957185] Add Synchronize function to the menu options during review of the
results of a Compare database operation.
[] Validation of databases can now be performed via the Manage menu as well
as via the command line flag '-v'. When executed via the menu, it is very
similar to opening a new database in that the current open database is
closed and the selected database is validated during the open process.
[] Allow user to select external editor for Notes field in Add/Edit dialog.
[] Add entry size to the available filters to be able view entries.
[] Warn users during database open and entry import if there are entries
with large text fields (e.g. Notes) that cannot be fully displayed and may
be truncated if edited.

Changes to Existing Features in 3.22
====================================
[] Preferences are now saved in the 'normal' per-user directory under
Windows. Existing installations will use current preferences, but users can
migrate to the new location via Manage->Options->System->Migrate
PasswordSafe configuration to user directory.
[] New databases will be created by default in "My Safes" directory under
"My Documents".

Bugs fixed in 3.22
==================
[3004446] Deleting a group of entries works again.
[2994118] Swedish version no longer crashes when checking for latest
version.
[2990734] Changing either whether password history is kept and deleting
currently saved history now activates the OK Button.
[2990609] Clicking to rename entries is now disabled when database is
read-only.
[2984527] Database preferences (including the Idle Timer setting) now
retained during a locking minimize to the System Tray.
[2977941] The password expiry date is now updated during edit if the
password is changed either via the Generate button or by the user manually
editing it.
[2977045] Can now make password expiration date any value from the current
date.
[2962916] Save toolbar button only enabled if database is R/W and has been
changed since last saved.
[2962847] Fix password length checking to be between 4 and 1024 during menu
Generate Password option & Password Policy setting as per previous releases.
[2960709] Entry selected prior to workstation locking is reselected on being
restored after unlocking the workstation.
[2957933] Ensure that AutoType delay and wait times are not impacted by
numeric characters from any entry field substitution.
[2951871] Shortcut related menu items now returned to the Edit menu and the
"Run Command", "Browse to URL", "Browse to URL + Autotype" and "Send email"
functions now work again, when a Shortcut entry is selected.
[2897661, 2779654] Group expand/collapse state restored after the database
is Locked, Minimized or "AutoType with Minimize" and then Restored.
[] Use of External Editor on Notes field from Edit dialog now activates
Apply and OK buttons.
[] Fix errors if importing an XML file with entries with duplicate unique
IDs (UUID elements).
[] Remove "Confirm Deletion of Entries" checkbox from theMisc. Options page.
New support for Undo/Redo made this unnecessary. Users are always asked to
confirm the deletion of Groups or entries that have aliases or shortcuts.

[Passwordsafe-announce] Announcing PasswordSafe 3.21

[Announcements of i. to u. a. d. of P. <pas...@li...>]

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.21. This release
has a couple of nice new features, as described below, some bug fixes, as
well as support for French (full), German (full), Swedish (full), Russian
(full), Chinese (partial), Polish (partial), and Spanish (partial). If
you're interested in supporting your language, please let me know. Thanks to

and feedback on this release. Many thanks to DK for his work and patience,
and of course thanks to all the users who provide feedback, bug reports,
suggestions and the occasional donation...

Manage menu.
[2616175] Allows user to retry finding the original database if not
successfully found the first time.
[] Undo/Redo of changes to the currently open database. Any change to the
database can now be undone and redone, as long as the database is open. This

menu).
[] New Synchronize feature (subset of the current Merge function) to allow
changes in the fields of entries of two databases to be synchronised.
Entries with identical Group names, Titles and User names are compared when
syncing. The database selected to be synchronised with the current open
database is now always in read-only mode i.e. Synchronisation is
uni-directional and only entries in the currently open database can be
modified.

Changes to Existing Features in 3.21

[] When comparing databases, the "other" selected database is now always
opened in read-only mode.

Bugs fixed in 3.21

immediately; pressing the Generate button will create a password according
to the new policy, without having to save and re-open the entry.
[2940712] Dragging a group now drags along all its descendants.
[2931428] Password history now displayed correctly in View/Edit.
[2918306, 2816066, 2798788, 2446052, 2837591, 2917066, ...] Re-instate
AutoType via shortcut and when an entry has been selected via the Find
Toolbar.
[2921935] Dragbar now works in List view without needing the mouse to
activate.

workstation lock and terminal services running.
[2916338] "Edit Base entry" now works for Alias entries as well as for
Shortcuts.

is set or 'mailto:' used in URL field.
[2912177] Adding Groups via right-click menu now works again under default
configuration.
[2894100] PasswordSafe window no longer creeps down the screen if the
Windows  taskbar is at the top of the screen.
[2818401] AutoType backspace field ('\b') now honoured in both "AutoType"
and "Browse To + AutoType" consistently.
[2431438] When unable to find a previous database via the recently opened
databases on the File menu and the user is given the option to open a
different database or create a new one.
[1751462] After Find Toolbar Advanced dialog is used, the previous Find
results are now reset.
[] Finally fix issues running under pre-XP versions of Windows.
[] Fix issue when changing the displayed columns in List View and then
switching to Tree View.

Re: [Passwordsafe-announce] Announcing PasswordSafe 3.20

[Announcements of i. to u. a. d. of P. <pas...@li...>]

Hi,

Due to an error in the release process, the wrong versions of non-English
support libraries were included in the 3.20 release.

The files have been updated and uploaded to SourceForge, replacing the
previous release.

You only need to download version 3.20 again if you're running PasswordSafe
under the following localized versions of Windows:
Chinese, French, German, Italian, Polish, Russian, Spanish, Swedish.
All other users are unaffected.

The updated sha1 checksums are:

[Passwordsafe-announce] Announcing PasswordSafe 3.19

[Announcements of i. to u. a. d. of P. <pas...@li...>]

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.19. This release
has a couple of nice new features, as described below, some bug fixes, as
well as support for French (NEW!), German (full), Swedish (full), Russian
(partial), Chinese (partial), Polish (partial), and Spanish (partial). If
you're interested in supporting your language, please let me know. Thanks to
Karlo, Bjorn, pm_kan and Francois for their translation efforts and feedback
on this release! Many thanks to DK for his work and patience, and thanks to
Vasily and gillum for their contributions to this release.

New Features for 3.19
================
[2832983] The Edit/View dialog now shows the details of the entry being
edited/viewed in its title caption (This is updated when saving the entry).
[2832810] A new email field has been added, supporting email headers 'to',
'subject', 'cc', 'bcc' and 'body' (per RFC 2368 - see online help for
details). If this field is not empty, it is used instead of the URL field
even if that contains an email address.
Note: whereas the URL field had to have the 'mailto:' prefix to denote an
email address rather than a URL, the email field must not contain this
prefix.
[] PasswordSafe now handles Vista (and later) logoff, shutdown & restart
more gracefully, giving the user now has more time to save a modified
database.
[] Add new AutoType special fields '\wnnn' and '\Wnnn'. Unlike '\d', which
sets the delay between sending each subsequent character, '\w' & '\W'
introduces a one-time delay where they appear.  For '\w', the value 'nnn' is
in milli-seconds. For '\W', this specifies seconds. Note: Max. value is 999s
(16m 39s), during which time PasswordSafe will be unresponsive while it
waits the specified time. Also supported via the Run Command $a command.
[] Add menu item to copy the Run Command to the clipboard.
[] Support Run Command and Double-Click Action (and email) fields in
Filters.

Changes to Existing Features in 3.19
===========================
[] Changing the Security option to lock Password Safe when the workstation
is locked, no longer requires a restart of Password Safe to come into
effect.
[] Due to the French keyboard not supporting the key '-' in an accelerator,
the shortcut for "Password Subset" has been changed from "Ctrl + -" to "Ctrl
+ B". Please do not allocate "Ctrl + -" to any shortcut if you will be using
a French keyboard.
[] If a dialog is open (e.g. Add, Edit, Options etc.) and Password Safe is
minimized, the Close and Exit options are no longer in the System Tray
context menu. The user must first Restore the application and close the
dialog before being able to close the database or exit the program.
[] If preferences stored in the database are changed, the user will be asked
if they want to save them in the database when closing the database or
application even if none of the entries have been changed.
[] The preference to Lock the Database after a certain amount of idle time
has changed from being a global parameter affecting all databases opened by
the user to be specific to each database.

Bugs fixed in 3.19
=============
[2865116] Status-Bar message now correctly states "Password Copied" when
doing a "Run Command".
[2865116] Status-Bar message now updated when using the keyboard arrows to
transverse entries in Tree and List views.
[2856750] The Password Policy now correctly displayed in List View, when
selected.
[2856051] Changes to database preferences are no longer lost upon minimize.
[2856410] The "Run Command" menu entry is no longer greyed out for Shortcuts
to base entries with a Run Command.
[2851848] Mouse double-click interval removed from Virtual Keyboard to allow
multiple virtual keys to be entered quickly.
[2850907] Password field no longer cleared after focus change.
[2842700] No longer crashes when using a French keyboard.
[2192490, 2840534] Multiple desktops now handled correctly for Windows XP
and later system.
[2836569] Correct password data now copied from Edit dialog using 'Smart
Labels'
[2832991] Double-click action display in the Status Bar now shows correct
value for entries that have overriden the current default.
[2820260] Fix password expiry interval processing during Edit.
[2818653] Password expiry interval now correctly exported to XML and
displayed during Edit, if present.
[2813295] 'Browse + Autotype' system tray menu items fixed - thanks to
Vasily for reporting and sending the patches for this.
[2085058] Old (1.x) format databases now closed correctly.
[] Fixed problem with viewing a shortcut in read-only mode - thanks to
gillum for reporting and helping track this down.
[] Fix crash when using External Editor on Notes field.
[] Password verification field not set when editing/viewing an alias entry
and the password is hidden.
[] Enter key works again in initial dialog if browse button used to select a
database. 
[] AutoType by an alias now has correct password and its own notes data
rather than '[Alias]' and its base's notes data, respectively.
[] Run command no longer truncates the first field if it is within double
quotes.
[] Duplicate entry now duplicates double-click action of original as well.
[] Double-click on a shortcut entry now executes the action of its base.
[] Drag & Drop of entries with explicit double-click action values between
different databases now works. 
[] Browse to URL from an Alias entry now puts the correct password in the
clipboard.
[] Text import no longer overwrites entry's RunCommand with double-click
action value.
[] Tidy up item order in Edit menu and right-click context menu.

Re: [Passwordsafe-announce] Announcing PasswordSafe 3.17 BETA2

[Announcements of i. to u. a. d. of P. <pas...@li...>]

Hi,

This is to announce the second BETA release of version 3.17 of PasswordSafe
(the first release was announced only to the passwordsafe-users and
passwordsafe-devel mailing lists - apologies to folks who get this
announcement in duplicate). This release differs from the first beta in that
a few bugs have been fixed, and the Add and Edit dialog boxes have been
changed.

The new features in this version are a bit more complex than the last few
releases, so we've decided to release it gradually, depending on your
feedback. Also, we've prepared a short (6 question) user survey, and would
appreciate it if you could spend a couple of minutes and fill it out. The
survey is at:
http://p.sf.net/passwordsafe/3_17BetaSurvey

Here's a list of the new features:

[1533621, 1722481] There's a new, "Browse+" action that combines browsing to
an entry's URL and entering the username, password, etc. in a single
operation. Note that this is a new feature, and is known to have problems
with some sites and browsers.
[1405326] Add new field 'Run Command' to allow arbitrary commands, such as
terminal emulators, etc. to be executed via Ctrl+R or from the Edit menu. 
[] Allow users to set their own shortcut keys for menu items. Select via
Manage->Options->Shortcuts.
[1954166] New preference to word wrap the Notes field in Add & Edit. Also,
ability to override this and showing the notes by right-click context menu.
[] Implement "Find Up" via clicking Find toolbar button with Shift key down
or pressing 'Shift+F3' for repeat find up.

In addition, the Chinese, Russian and German translations of PasswordSafe
have been updated and bundled with the distribution.

The release may be downloaded from
http://pwsafe.org/tmp/pwsafe-3.17-beta2.exe (installer)
http://pwsafe.org/tmp/pwsafe-3.17-beta2-bin.zip (zip file with executable
and related files)

SHA-1 sums are:
0fe15b22b1afd1162523e0d8645ce8246bbf6a20 *pwsafe-3.17-beta2.exe
4bb48989d23bca3fe15bc4277d63296a84fa8deb *pwsafe-3.17-beta2-bin.zip

PGP signatures are available as well:

[Passwordsafe-announce] Announcing PasswordSafe 3.16

[Announcements of i. to u. a. d. of P. <pas...@li...>]

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.16.

The main new feature of this release is non-English support: Specifically,
German is now fully supported, and Polish, Spanish and Swedish are partially
supported. In addition, some annoying bugs have been fixed, and some
features have been added or improved upon.  
Thanks to Karlo  Van der Gucht for his work on non-English support, to DK
for his work on this release, and to all the folks who reported bugs and
tested prelimenary versions of this release.

Bugs fixed in 3.16
[2529736] Validate now corrects all Password History errors
[2509817] Control characters no longer sent via Autotype.
[2481370] Can now create shortcut by right-mouse down dragging.
[] Can now process filters (within the database or imported) based on
'username' field ("user" in the XML file).
[2423397] Sorting direction database preference was not being saved in the
database.  See "Changes to Existing Features" below.

Changes to Existing Features in 3.16
[Open Discussion] Ctrl+F no longer toggles the Find Toolbar but shows it if
not currently visible.
[2423397] Changes to preferences stored in the database are no longer
silently saved in the database (including any changes to any entries). A new
flag is shown in the Status Bar to indicate the preferences have been
changed and the user can decide to save these, or not, when closing the
database, directly or when ending the application.
[] Support interoperability with tools that access edit control text by
setting PWS_PW_MODE environment variable to "NORMAL".

New Features for 3.16
[2509821] Support Group (\g), Title (\i) and Notes (\o, \onnn) fields via
Autotype.
[] Installation program now offers German as well as English installation
instructions, as well as installing German language support. The framework
is easily extended to other languages.
[2450841] The user can use the DragBar to drag and drop the group name when
a group is selected. Pressing the Ctrl key while dragging the group, when a
group or entry is selected, will only copy the immediate parent group.
Standard behaviour is to copy all groups up to the root of the database with
dots between successive group names.
[2450827] Add a new menu item (on Edit Menu or right-click context menu) to
go to the corresponding base entry of an Alias or Shortcut. As part of this
change, only relevant items are shown on the Edit menu depending on the
current selected item (group or normal, shortcut base, alias base, alias or
shortcut entry).
[2425045] During Edit, if the entry has been changed and the user presses
the Cancel button, they are asked to confirm losing their changes.
[2415952] The currrent display status of the Find Toolbar is remembered at
application close and, if visible, it is will be shown the next time the
application is started.

The U3 version will be available soon from
http://software.u3.com/Product_Details.aspx?productId=294&Selection=7

[Announcements of i. to u. a. d. of P. <pas...@li...>]

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.15.

This is a minor release - some annoying bugs have been fixed, some features
have been added or improved upon.  
Thanks to DK for his work on this release, and to all the folks who reported
bugs and tested the Beta version of this release.

In addition to this release, we're releasing a new package of PasswordSafe

File->Open or recently used list.
[2269930] Track write permission of file in opening dialog: If the user
chooses a file with different permission than the original, then the r-o
status is updated accordingly.
[2142691] Better support for Japanese text.
[2113261] No longer crashes when opening write-protected database.

YubiKey Authentication Support:
YubiKey (http://yubico.com/products/yubikey/) is a USB authentication device
that sends a different authentication key each time it's activated. This
provides a convenient alternative to constantly typing in a passphrase for
heavy users of PasswordSafe. To use, just "associate" your YubiKey with your
PasswordSafe datasbase, using the new Manage->YubiKey dialog. For more
details, please refer to the online help. 
Currently, support for this device is implemented in a separate PasswordSafe
package, 3.15Y. Your feedback will determine if and how this will be merged
into the main product.
The YubiKey version may be downloaded from:
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=41019&package_id=3027

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.13.

This is a minor release - some annoying bugs have been fixed, some minor

[Announcements of i. to u. a. d. of P. <pas...@li...>]

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.12.

This is a minor release - some annoying bugs have been fixed, some minor
features have been added or improved upon.  
Thanks to DK his work on this release, and to all the folks who reported
bugs and tested pre-release versions.

[1855658, 1436850] Implement font for password display correctly.
[1850271] Save after Compare no longer corrupts database.
[1849881, 700973] Pressing a character in the List view will now jump to the
next entry with text beginning with that character in the second column.
This is a change from previous behaviour, which only looked in the first
column, now occupied by the icon.
[1849830] Help now works properly for Manage->Option, displaying the
relevant topic.
[1849818] Browse-to no longer falsely reports "failed to browse to URL".
[1843631] "Browse to Icon" now correctly shown using new Toolbar.
[1841525] Increasing the number of passwords saved no longer deletes the
existing Password History.
[1833609, 1535341, 1502036] Fully support multiple monitors.
[1749268] Mouse clicks on tree view plus/minus boxes now works correctly.
[1670193] Better Vista support (Allow use of Windows Common Controls V6 with

[] Allow List view to process all characters e.g. Page Up/Down, Home, End,
Arrows etc.

[Passwordsafe-announce] Announcing PasswordSafe 3.11

[Announcements of i. to u. a. d. of P. <pas...@li...>]

Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.11.

This is a minor release - some annoying bugs have been fixed, some minor
features have been added or improved upon.  
Thanks to DK his work on this release, and to all the folks who reported
bugs and tested pre-release versions.

New Features for 3.11

[1765240] Add "Clear clipboard" item to tray icon context menu.
[1727768] Copy URL to clipboard added to menus (Ctrl+Alt+L).
[1526169] Add more shortcut keys to add/edit dialog.
[] Give user access to Reports from View menu (only in the same directory as
current open database), since more information is being written there.
[] Give user access to the Compare report from the Compare results dialog.
[] New email action allowed in URL field. To be treated as email, the data
must be prefixed by the characters "mailto:". The data following this
corresponds to the '[mailto:]' standard RFC2368.
For example: "in...@ex...?subject=PasswordSafe".
[] Main toolbar can be customized via MS's standard dialog via right click
on this toolbar.
[] Several entries may be "aliased" to a single entry, sharing its password.
See online help for details.

Changes to Existing Features in 3.11

[1815192] The Find function has been re-implemented as a toolbar at bottom
of application.
Button shortcuts: Ctrl+Alt+A = Advanced find,
Ctrl+Alt+S = toggle case Sensitivity, Ctrl+Alt+C = Clear find text
[1790342] Replaced additional key shortcuts for ExpandAll and CollapseAll by
toolbar buttons.  Now there is only one set (the original) of key shortcuts
+ toolbar buttons.
[1756385] The color of the application's system tray icon (when the
application is started and when there's no open database) is now user
configurable, fixing a visibility problem under Vista.
[] Saved string preferences within the database header will not be delimited
by a doublequote if this character is part of the string variable.  An
arbitrary
symbol type character will be used in this case.  If one cannot be found,
the string preference will not be saved in the database.

Bugs fixed in 3.11
==================
[1806201] Non-unique uuids in database now handled correctly.
[1799523] Fix PWS taking a long time saving after XML Import into new DB.
Users who have imported XML into a new database should export again and
re-import after deleting the
<NumberHashIterations>...</NumberHashIterations> entry from the XML file.
[1798588] Users can now change an entry's password with passwords hidden.
[1793224] Copy for expired passwords no longer causes PWS crashes.
[1791482] All preferences stored within the database are now
exported/imported via XML.
[1790286] All String preferences stored within the database are now
correctly read during database open.
[1789983] List View now correct after Group removed.
[1726181] Save of a new database is no longer required to export entries.
[1664219] Autotype now works correctly with '@' in German keyboards, and
non-English keyboards in general.
[1313440] Can new add/edit entries with long group names.
[] Prevent mixed Unicode/ASCII report files and ensure Unicode reports have
BOM as some text editors insist!
[] Disable Rename menu item in List View (only appropriate in Tree View).
[] Disable Tray Minimize/Restore menu items if already Minimized/Visible.
[] Ignore mouse right click not in Tree/List view area.
[] Use the Confirm Delete message even when there is only one child.
