Hi Igor,

here you can find the source code of a NATIVE (NOT cygwin!) version of cp.exe, which can copy sparse files:

Before copying starts or before preview starts?

Hi Igor, thank you for adding verify option. I have switched it on, but I cannot determine if it is in fact working. No additional confirmations or display like "verifying" is shown. I assume it is supposed to verify right after each separate file copy? Are compatibility mode and verify options also...

Hi Igor,

confirming that ah attribute problem is fixed in build 1645.

Thank you.

Thanks Igor!

The ah problems manifests itself specifically with TC's descript.ion files.

Hint: The only copy program I could find that can do sparse files is cygwin's cp.exe with "--sparse=always -p" parameters. But otherwise it is not very good...

Hi Igor, SI 1644 cannot copy files with archive bit "a" to a destination file with archive bit "ah". Also SI does not copy sparse files, it copies the entire file in its full length, which can cause some real surprises (like suddenly having 10GB disk space taken, because your virtual machine's 10 GB...

Hi Igor and all, could you add this option quickly? I am also having problems copying to USB drives, but after thorough testing I knew it not to be SI's fault, since TC and other software also has the same copying problems. Compatibility mode in SI seems to have corrected the problem, but it slows d...

Hi Igor,

I think it would be very nice and helpful if CI could give the version informaton of the file it compares (if available) in the status bar next to the file size.

This would be an important help for a lot of people using binary compare, I think.

Problem is not resolved in latest beta and has been worsened, because after switch sides of files in same folder, the file name on top does not move along.

Can only say two words: "Well done!"

Hi Igor, I think it would look better and be more practical if you renamed "Default" to "Default Profile". Then you could do away with "Profile:" in front of the new toolbar button (but at least make it smaller please, because it takes a lot of precious toolbar real estate). That said though I think...

Default view.

When I select a profile, close the options dialog, then open it again, then I don't have my profile selected any longer. :( The way I would expect profiles to behave is this: I select or make and select a profile and it stays active at least for the entire session (and stays selected in options for ...

The latter.

Hi Igor,

when I make a profile and select it, it doesn't stay on.

Neither after restart, nor immediately when I continue working.
