ClassAction is more than a file manager for AmigaOS; you are able to
define classes of files, and actions for each class.

It is

- a file manager for copying, moving, deleting, renaming, adding icons,
  showing information, viewing and extracting archives

- a class manager that allows to view, edit, (un)pack, compile, start ...
  the files

- with FTPMount an easy way to use FTP!


It is the perfect add-on to OS 3.5 and 3.9.

22/04/01 : V4.1

    - Both listers now show name, size, date and protection bits, and
      can be sorted by name, size or date (click on column title).
      Adjust the columns by clicking on the "invisible" separators.

    - Lha and zip archives can be browsed like real directories!
      You can copy (=add) files to an archive or copy (=extract) files
      from archives (with path).
      All other methods are impossible inside archives.
      (For viewing and extraction you only need xadmaster.library,
      adding is done via the commands "lha" and "zip" which have to
      be somewhere in the systems path. It is only possible to add
      files to the root dir of the archive.)

    - The PopUpWindow now contains buttons, POPUPWIDTH and
      POPUPHEIGHT are obsolete, window will allways open.

    - Added tooltype DATESTRING to specify if you want "today" etc.
      instead of the dd-mmm-yy date.

    - Added tooltype MUIQUIT to iconify the window with the close
      gadget.

    - Added keys KEY_DEL (standard: <DEL>) and KEY_RENAME (<F4>) as
      shortcut for deleting and renaming.

    - "Swap" rewritten and much faster.

    - "Copy" now uses option CLONE to keep date and protection bits.

    - Replace requester shows size and date of the two files.

    - Text requester opens allways under the mouse.

    - After actions the old position in the list is shown, not the top.

    - Busy pointer and filename display while copying,...

    - Path buttons have allways the same size and are really removed
      if you specify less than 13 paths.

    - Bugs removed: copy .info works correct, "move as" also,
      WBInfo now displays devices correct (thanks to Stephan Rupprecht!)

31/03/01 : V4.0

    - "Rewritten" the program to use Reaction and new OS3.5+ features.

    - Now only 13 path buttons can be configured (should be enough!).

    - Manager actions are now images!

    - Devices are now shown in the normal file list.

    - New buttons: MakeDir also for right file list, WbInfo, AddIcon,
      MoveAs, all the selecting methods.

    - Added a menu(!) with help, preferences, settings, ...

    - Added asynchronous help!

    - Added a progress bar for copying/moving/...

    - Now the class of a file is the one with the MOST fitting offsets,
      not the first one that matches.

    - Comment optimization and Tooltype NOCOMMENT removed.

    - New tooltypes: COPYICONS,CREATEICONS,DRAWERSFIRST,HELPFILE,SHOWHELP
      X,Y,WIDTH,HEIGHT,POPUPWIDTH,POPUPHEIGHT,more keys

    - ARexx port is now CLASSACTION.1 to make handling easier
