[StrongED] Transient 2.04b available



Hi All,

Transient 2.04b is now available for download from:
http://www.stronged.iconbar.com/fjg/zips/tr204b.zip

The main changes in this release are in the way auto-expiry works.
Transient now warns when it's about to remove dirs that are older
than expected (ie the age is beyond what would be expected from the
expiry settings). This is intended to catch the clock having gone
wrong for some reason, the Iyonix bug at the start of this year
shows that this is not just a hypothetical case.

Please note that this is a beta release and although Tony (Moore) and
myself have done lots of testing there may still be bugs present. So
make sure you have a backup of your temporary directory to avoid loss
of data in case something nasty turns up.

Again a debt of gratitude is owed to Tony for all his help.

As always all feedback is welcome.

Changes from Transient 2.03
===========================

 - Checks if everything is installed on startup and offers to install
   missing bits.
 - Only warns about expiry if there actually are non-empty directories
   to expire.
 - A warning can be set if directories to expire are much older than
   expected.
 - Expiry of empty directories is now configurable instead of automatic.
 - System variable Transient$TodayLeaf holds name of current Today dir.

Cheers,

Fred.
