10.1.0
BACKEND
Pea 1.21, introduced scrypt KDF as default option to
improve resilience to password guessing attacks (increasing memory cost
per instance) over PBKDF2 implemented in previous versions
scrypt is now the default
KDF for all cascaded encryption modes, it can be set to use from 64 MB
(default) up to 1 GB memory, r set to 8, paralelism 1 to 8 (plus, the
KDF is repeated for each of the tree layers of the cascaded encryption)
CODE
Fixed "Ask before
overwriting (in console)" extraction option, now
correctly sets the app in console mode superseding other options
Fixed directory copy/move on Unix-like systems
(Windows) Fixed drag and drop bug preventing extraction towards some
file managers and third party apps, now more file managers are tested
for compatibility
(Windows) Fixed drag and drop bug failing extraction at first try on
some instances
FILE MANAGER
GUI update
Breadcrumb improvements
Highlighting of temporary
paths in the breadcrumb bar is now
consistent with Theme colors
New Theme option to optionally underline and highlight address
breadcrumb
Navigation bar improvements
Compact side bar mode is
now integrated with other navigation
bar modes (navigation, treeview, and none, which can be toggled with
Alt+4)
It is now possible to
internally drag and drop extract items to
the navigation bar even whent it is set to Compact mode
Navigation bar width is now automatically adapted to the zoom
level of the app

are now available in (peazip)/res/share/icons folder

note current implementation still allows a single drag and drop
instance globally)
Attempts to launch multiple
drag and drop instances, from single or multiple instance of the
application, are now effectively stopped without issues for the running
drag and drop indtance
This limitation can be avoided using internal drag and drop extraction
(which is cross-platform) or unchecking "Use native drag and drop" in
options to switch to an alternative custom drag and drop implementation
