v25.30.0006 - 2023-12-10 21:08
    + Configuration | Tabs and Panes | Tabs | Visual Style: Added "XYplorer Modern Style", 
      the new factory default. Countless changes and adjustments. Rounder, more air, less 
      lines. Work in progress, Dark Mode still missing...
    * Configuration | Tabs and Panes | Tabs | Visual Style: Renamed "XYplorer Classic 
      Style" to "XYplorer Archaic Style" because that's what it is (probably Windows 95).
    - Configuration | Tabs and Panes | Tabs | Yellow highlight marks selected tab in 
      classic style: Setting removed from Configuration, but kept as a tweak.
    + SC zip_extract enhanced: Now you can control whether to wait for the extraction or 
      return immediately and perform the extraction asynchronously.
      Syntax: zip_extract(zipfile, path, [itemlist], [separator="|"], [wait=1])
        wait: 0 = extract asynchronously
              1 = [default] wait for extraction 
      Waiting is usually better in a scripting context, so it's the default. It was also 
      the way it worked all the time before v25.20.0115 - 2023-12-03 17:03, so this 
      enhancement is also a bugfix.

      space. No more ellipses.

v25.30.0015 - 2023-12-14 12:43
    + Configuration | General | Tree and List | Tree: Added setting "Expand tree nodes on 
      browse". Expands a collapsed node in the tree when you browse it in a way other than 
      directly clicking it (which is handled by "Expand tree nodes on single-click"), e.g. 
      by double-clicking a folder in the list, selecting a favorite folder, or using the 
      address bar.
      Note that this feature only works in the Maxi Tree, not in the Mini Tree (where it 
      would defeat the purpose of the Mini Tree).
      FYI, this feature existed before under the name "Expand destination node in tree", 
      but was removed in v24.30.0123 - 2023-04-25 17:00 and kept only as a tweak. Now it's 
      back.
    ! XYplorer Modern Style: Minor adjustments to handle different screen resolutions.

    + Color Filters: Filters using borders (switches f and b) now also honor roundness.
    % Toolbar: Button backgrounds now fully anti-aliased. Almost too subtle to notice, but 
      you will subconsciously welcome the new smoothness.
    % Mini Toolbars: All mini toolbars throughout the application now use the native XY 
      style instead of the Windows themes style.

      Fixed.
    ! Catalog | Click and Search | Labels: Returned partial matches, which obviously

      searches run from a "Click and Search: Labels" category always have to be quoted.
