* With that obscene an amount of pre-releases of 6.03 (seriously, how
many more YEARS pre-release of the same version do you actually need?),
of course the syslinux people have managed to break the last remnants
of compatibility they had between a single major version, so we are now
forced to provide a smorgasbord of pre-release and out of band syslinux
binaries on our server, and make sure we detect and handle incompatible
syslinux versions clientside...
For instance, even after fixing the EFI vs isolinux issue, we find
that tails 1.1 is incompatible with 'pre19'. But it also uses its own
'20131220' extended identifier, instead of 'pre1', its closest
relative. So we have to multiply files and symbolic links to try to
keep everybody happy.
Talk about a MAJOR LETDOWN from the syslinux project...
* Closes#363
* Detect Syslinux version from isolinux.bin (Closes#272)
* Download required Syslinux v5+ files where needed (Closes#165)
* Also fix an issue where using a Syslinux based ISO didn't switch to ISO mode
* Also alter DownloadFile and ExtractISOFile to return a size
* Attempt to remount the drive in case of failure (Closes#270)
* Minor fixes to localization
* Fix errors not being properly reported in DownloadFile()
* Also update ChangeLog.txt for beta
* Fix missing DOS codepages for Asian languages (reported by Kyle)
* Fix wrong label being reported when an USB HDD is present (reported by NaJiyoun)
* Fix potential issue with error message reporting
* Fix ISO button being truncated on high DPI displays
* Improve French and Korean translations
* Improve launch of updated application
* move Spanish translation to its expected location
* set gitattributes for the loc file
* update license, factorize is_x64(), remove unwanted messages
* This is meant to be used by translators for testing the UI
* Also fix the positioning and centering of boilerplate on the new version dialog
* French translation improvements
* As the MSDN doc says, "Failing to properly terminate the (lplpszAcceptTypes)
array with a NULL pointer will cause a crash."
* Also switch to HttpSendRequestA() since we have no use for W there.
* Rufus was downloading c32 files in the last directory browsed, which
meant that the same file may have had to be downloaded more than once
* Closes#154
* update copyright year
* switch relevant files to UTF-8 (without signature).
It's 2013 for crying out loud: if your file editor or file viewer
can't handle plain UTF-8, go back to the 1980s!
* also rename autogen.sh to bootstrap.sh
* Contains the bulk of the code required to address #11
* Tested with Windows 8 Pro x64 (en-gb_windows_8_x64_dvd_915412.iso)
and Arch Linux (archlinux-2013.01.04-dual.iso) against an UEFI 2.1 BIOS
* Also fixes missing status report beta versions check
* Add dialog for new release notification
* Do not check for updates during format or ISO ops
* Add RTF support for parser and security improvements
* Also improve init and exit of progress dialog
