ExifRenamer V2.3.0 released
Here are the changes of this version:
- Integrated the new application icon which was designed by Benjamin. Thank you so much Benjamin for your incredible work and effort you've put into this topic! The new appearance of ExifRenamer was worth an increase in the middle digit of the version number... ;-)
- Fixed a problem within preferences, where the substring type popup button was not updated with the saved setting.
- Added a dedicated "Drag&Drop Window" for those users who do not want to use ExifRenamer's application icon as drag&drop-target.
- The renaming confirmation window is now shown directly below the renaming progress window.
- Fixed a bug which caused ExifRenamer to assume that no change in the file name means "file already exists".
- The file/folder status in the confirm info window is now updated during typing.
- Added support for adding subsecond information to the format string.
- Fixed a problem where ExifRenamer used the wrong prefix/suffix setting when a custom prefix was set within the "confirm each file" dialog but the renaming was performed without "Confirm each file" option active.
- Added the option to evaluate the file type suffix from the file contents.
- Added the option to skip renaming if a file date was not retrievable, at all.
- Added support for macOS Mojave's "dark mode".
- Limited the automatic update check to a maximum of once every 24 hours.
- Applied UI improvements for Retina displays.

ExifRenamer V2.2.1 released
This version fixes a lot of smaller issues which mostly were present due to the massive work required to make version 2.2.0 possible.
Here are the changes of this version:
- Fixed the App Icon by replacing the old .icns file with an Images.xcassets variant.
- Fixed a serious bug which made ExifRenamer unusable if one of the new Exif format string options (%xE) was used.
- Added support for adding further Exif Information to the file names of the renamed pictures using the different %xE options. I added this option somewhen within the last 8 years, forgot about it and accidentally released it in a buggy state in 2.2.0.
- Added support for the second generation Canon RAW format (CR2).
- Fixed handling of certain RIFF/AVI/WAV date/time formats.
- Fixed the "delete files" option which was accidentally deactivated in the last release.
- Removed debug outputs.
- Integrated this "Version History" text into ExifRenamer's "Donation Information" window.
- After confirming the "Donation Information" window, the "About" window is now shown instead of the "Preferences" window.
- Changed the shortcut for opening the "Preferences" window from Cmd+P to the commonly used Cmd+, shortcut.
- Cleaned up Info.plist contents to match the latest recommendations for macOS.
- Performed a whole lot of internal code cleanup.

ExifRenamer V2.2.0 released
Hey, I'm back with some news after so many years! Stay tuned! :-)
After having started a complete rewrite of ExifRenamer using Swift, it became more
and more clear that this project will cost more time as I can currently invest in my spare time.
As an update of ExifRenamer became urgently required (due to the 64bit requirement of macOS High Sierra), I decided to go back to the old code basis and two perform the "Swiftyfication" on an incremental basis in the future.
It was a huge task to make ExifRenamer's ancient code compilable with the latest Xcode.
A lot of code cleanups and internal changes were required. But in the end, I succeeded in bringing
ExifRenamer "back to life"... :-)
ExifRenamer now is a 64bit and 32bit (x86) application with a deployment target of macOS 10.11 or later.

ExifRenamer V2.1.0 released
The main feature of this version is that ExifRenamer now is a Universal Binary application which runs natively on Mac OS X machines equipped with an intel or PowerPC processor. This version also fixes some smaller bugs.
I am currently working on a new major update of ExifRenamer which I could have ready within some weeks if I have enough spare time left.

My first creation using GarageBand...
Yesterday afternoon I bought Apple's great software package iLife 04 containing among some other cool stuff the new software GarageBand.
I wondered about what a musically totally unskilled guy like me could do with it...
I have to say, for my programmers hands :-) it doesn't sound that bad... if you want to judge yourself, download it here:
SecondRhythms.mp3 (8.9MB)
The name was chosen because it was my second project file... the first one noone really wants to listen to... ;-)
I would highly appreciate becoming feedback!
