EagleFiler 1.3.8 fixes a regression in EagleFiler 1.3.6 that made capturing from Firefox not work.

Earlier today, EagleFiler 1.3.6 fixed a memory leak in some third-party code that EagleFiler uses. Unfortunately, the fix was incorrect and introduced a bug that could cause EagleFiler to crash when editing a keyboard shortcut. EagleFiler 1.3.7 fixes the fix so that it will neither leak memory nor crash.

EagleFiler 1.3.6 is now available. This is a free update that includes the following enhancements:

• Opening the Capture With Options window is faster and uses much less memory.
• When capturing a headline from NetNewsWire, EagleFiler now preserves the flagged status.
• Improved the error message when capturing from Firefox 3 fails due to a bug in Firefox.
• Fixed some small memory leaks.
• Fixed bug where .eml files converted to mbox format weren’t From-escaped.
• Moved .nib files that don’t need localization out of the English.lproj folder. This should make it easier to run EagleFiler in a language other than English without changing the default language on your Mac.
• Fixed bug truncating filenames containing decomposed characters.
• Improved the French localization.

EagleFiler 1.3.5 is now available. This is a free update that includes the following enhancements:

• Made various performance optimizations to the browser and activity windows.
• If you click on a mailbox in the source list whose table of contents has not yet been built, EagleFiler now reports this in the viewer so that it’s more clear why no messages are shown yet.
• Dropping between folders in the source list no longer targets the containing folder, since this made the subfolder drop targets too small.
• Improved the way EagleFiler handles special “merged” mailboxes when capturing from Apple Mail.
• Added EnableWebPlugIns to the esoteric preferences, so that you can prevent Web plug-ins (e.g. Flash) from loading in EagleFiler’s viewer.
• Capturing a mailbox in Apple Mail no longer captures its submailboxes, unless they’re also selected.
• Fixed bug extracting the metadata from files during import.
• Fixed a bug where, in rare cases, EagleFiler would end up with two internal database records for the same file. This could happen with Web archives in the To Import folder.
• Fixed the title of the Copy Image command when Control-clicking on an image in the viewer.
• Fixed bug where EagleFiler would clear the display of the selected Web archive when using Capture With Options.
• Fixed regression where AppleScripting a browser window didn’t work.
• Reduced the delay before showing the Capture With Options window.
• The font-chooser text fields now draw the text centered.
• Single-click editing in table and outline views now requires Mac OS X 10.5, since it now relies on the standard OS functionality.
• In certain circumstances, auto-updating no longer requires authentication.
• Fixed bug where some operations in the Activity window would hang if the OS hung while setting a Spotlight comment.
• Worked around suspected OS bug, which sometimes caused a file’s creation date to change when you changed the modification date.
• Fixed bug where the Capture With Options window would be shown even if there were no items to capture.
• Fixed bug editing filenames with no extension in the records list.

• Added placeholder text to the tags bar so that it’s more clear that it’s editable.
• Expanded the documentation for the Verify command.
• On Mac OS X 10.4, the viewer pane now shows custom rather than generic icons for files that it doesn’t know how to display. (On Mac OS X 10.5, it continues to use Quick Look.)
