    55 We reworked the user commands. Doing so makes COMMANDS.DAT obsolete with the 
    56 commands moving to FM3INI.INI. We did this to eliminate toolbar entry failures 
    57 caused by reordering the commands. It also keeps the hotkey the same following 
    58 a reorder and allows the user to select the hotkey they wish to use. The first 
    59 time you run 3.18, it will copy the commands information from COMMANDS.DAT to 
    60 the INI. COMMANDS.DAT isn't deleted or changed so you can revert to an earlier 
    61 version without losing old commands. However, any commands you add or change

    64 You can use Ctrl-click to select state or commonly used directory quicklist entries 
    65 or walk dialog user list entries without activating them. This is handy for deleting 
    66 entries without changing the window's state.Compare directories has been rework to 
    67 enhance its speed, allow for quick cancel and provide the option of AND'ed 
    68 selection (CTRL click). AND'ed selection selects from currently selected entries 
    69 as opposed to all entries. See the help file for more information. We have fixed 
    70 some rare traps and hangs and a few annoying bugs like the failure of the append
