pdSFV version 1.2
pdSFV is a thorough tool for working with SFV files. If you never have seen files ending in “.sfv” before, this
software package probably is completely useless for you. Better luck next time… :)
Basically there are two operating modes in pdSFV: creating SFV files and performing SFV checks. Both modes try
to cover a set of features not found in the few other existing SFV tools. While the Windows GUI version tries to
maximize the end-user comfort regarding interface friendliness and output information, all of the
currently available versions (Windows GUI, Windows Textmode, Windows FTP-Server Plugin, Unix / Linux Textmode, Linux glFTPd
Plugin) are optimized for performance at a rational level of resource usage.
What’s new in pdSFV 1.2 ?
Added option to include files’ dates and sizes as comments to the SFV file (create mode)
Added option to associate .sfv file extension with pdSFV (Windows GUI version)
Redesign of the graphical user interface, getting rid of some redundant graphics and enhancing output information (Windows GUI version)
pdSFV can now be “minimized to tray” (Windows GUI version)
Added Windows Textmode version
Added sfv-on-the-fly checking to glFTPd (included in glFTPd 1.18 and higher)
Added wildcard support to command line utilities
Added example for recursive / multiple SFV checking to documentation
Bugfixes:
Fixed direct MP3 support in UNIX version
Fixed format of date/time stamp in “Generated by” – comment line to match established standard
Changed working path setting in Windows FTP server plugin, should run with gay FTP server programs now as well
Of course pdSFV is still distributed including full source code for all versions to encourage interested programmers
to enhance it and contribute to this project.
