Dragon Tavern Logger v1.0.6

About three weeks since the last version, it's time for another update. New features inside: v 1.0.6 here. Some fixes, improvements and stuff to make life a little better. Updates in v1.0.6: * Fixed the name of "Fork Tongue Clutch" in Zones.ini * Fixed Alt+F4 to close application. * Added "Lazy Zoneview" option. This ensures the zone view is never cleared automatically. To combat a so far unknown issue some people were having. * Added ability to pre-fill your username and password. Note: These are stored locally in DragonLogger.ini as plain text. So, only use this feature if your pc is 100% secure. Otherwise, just stick with the user name. * Added data export to .csv file format. See Menu: Browser -> Export. The exported data is controlled by your other preferences (such as include host data) * Added option to preferences(F11) to export .csv data as total kill count(default) or percentages(as seen in the analyze dialog). Inventory dialog: * Added progress dialog upon cubing more than two items. To show it is working hard on making your items into gold. * Sort columns are now remembered on open/close. * Position on screen and width/height are now remembered on open/close. Data analysis dialog (F9): * Dialog is no longer modal. Meaning you can keep it open while exploring, and press the new refresh button to update the data. * Sort columns are now remembered on open/close. * Position on screen and width/height are now remembered on open/close. * Now has a smaller "minimum" size. And once again "lots more data". But this time you can export it as well!

Amazon and Stanza

Some small level of praise where it's due.
After many... MANY weeks of harassing Amazon, they FINALLY released an update for Stanza, so that it will work with iOS 5.


If you have NO idea what I'm talking about here's the lowdown:

* Small company creates free e-reader app for iOS.
* The free appp becomes THE most popular e-reader app for iOS.
* Small company gets bought out by Amazon, to remove competition.
* Updates to the app stop completely.
* Apple releases iOS 5, Stanza breaks down.
* Many users are unable to open their e-books.
* Community in uproar since no viable e-reader replacements for iOS exist.
* Community angry at Amazon for stopping updates.
* Community VERY angry at Amazon for being told Apple is responsible for updates, even though Amazon has the source code.
* Amazon VERY reluctantly releases an update.
* Community happy, but looking for viable replacements just in case.
