|
|

* GPG 1.4.x is now the minimal requirement. |
|
|
* Fixes for some crashes due to missing space for the 0 character |
|
|
in some strings. |
|
|
* Fixed sequence for the first start because not all needed GPG |
|
|
configuration variables were saved. |

|
* Allow to delete multiple keys with a single GPG call. This fixes |
|

some hanging processes when a lot of keys were tried to deleted. |
|
|

|
|
displayed as 'DSA'. |

the plain validity, which is also used by GPG, will be displayed. |

* Acceleator support for the Key Manager. For example now it is possible: |
|

Ctrl+C export selected keys to clipboard |

Ctrl+A select all keys |
|
|
Ctrl+F find a key |

|
|
level should be asked for or not. By default it is not enabled like the |

* The 'add key..' dialog is now much simpler. If the key should expire, |
|
|
the user can select the date directly via a date picker and common key |
|
|
sizes are provided in a combo box. |
|
|
* Improved backup procedure. Add a backup ID (from 0..3) to the backup |
|
|
name which depends on the week day. So for a week there are at least |
|
|
3 backups the user can restore data from. |

because then the size of char[256] is sizeof(char)*256 |
|
|
and not 256. |
