1) Fixed a bug in the word-wrapping feature that caused the first character of the last line to be overwritten if this line extended beyond the window and was preceded by a blank line. Also enhanced the paragraph-detection part of this feature.
2) Added importing of favorites or bookmarks from a bookmark.htm file. For Internet Explorer, use the Import and Export command on the File menu to generate this file. Netscape Navigator uses this file to store bookmark information. Based on information found on the Web, FireFox uses this file and Opera has an export command to generate this file. The dialog box for this feature includes Browse and Find buttons. The latter is helpful in case you don't know what folder the bookmark file is in.
3) Added a multiple-step undo/redo/preview feature for the Modify and Delete buttons. When Preview is activated, you will see the information that is ready to be restored or deleted when you select Undo or Redo.
4) Added a Tip of the Day feature. These tips introduce features and guide you in using this program.
5) Added title-case conversions. The Options screen now has a Title Case page that allows you to specify words that should not be capitalized. These words could be in lower, upper or mixed case. A default list of such words is provided.
6) Added shortcut key sequences to allow menu items to be selected without pulling down the menu, which is done by clicking on the icon to the left of the title bar or by pressing Alt+Spacebar. For example, pressing Ctrl+S will display the Statistics dialog box.
7) Annotated Link fields will now update when the user changes the selected link by pressing Home, End, arrow or character keys. The Statistics dialog box now updates the item-count display in response to these keys.
8) When the list-of-links window is active, pressing the Delete key is now equivalent to pressing the Delete button.
9) Added comma formatting of numbers to the Statistics, delete-confirmation and Preview dialog boxes. Numbers of at least 1,000 will have commas in them.
10) Pressing the Escape key will no longer close the program. Instead, a dialog box will ask you if you want to exit AnnWebLinks. Pressing Escape will still close secondary windows.
11) The search drop-down list now sorts its entries. Search terms are added to this list when various buttons are pressed or when the list is dropped down.
12) Added tool tips to the list-of-links window. These tips appear below the mouse cursor so that this cursor does not obscure the tip text. Due to the design of tool tips, up to 79 characters are displayed.
13) AnnWebLinks now stores added and modified date/time values. Links can be sorted based on either value.
14) AnnWebLinks now optionally restores its window position to where it was when this program previously closed. A check box on the Miscellaneous page of the Options screen controls this feature.
15) AnnWebLinks no longer waits for your browser (or other application) to respond after you press the Launch button. As a result, you can use other features or launch into another application shortly after pressing the Launch button even if your browser or other application crashes.
