Matthias let me know that he has updated his popular and extremely useful FileScout application for BlackBerry to v1.4.1.0.

As a reminder, FileScout is a donationware file system browser that allows you to create directories, copy, move, rename, or delete files, open media files, zip or unzip files and much more.

To download FileScout OTA click here or visit the emacberry.com page for more info and a desktop download link. To see what’s new or what was fixed up to v1.4.1.0 check out the changelog after the jump.

2009/11/02 – FileScout release of 1.4.1.0

• What’s fixed?
  • The new Simple TextViewer/Editor Option: Select how files will be saved. Either in ‘UNIX Format (CR)’ (default) or in’Windows Format (CRLF)’ is now visible in the Simple TextViewer/Editor Option

2009/10/31 – FileScout release of 1.4.0.0

Even if the changelog for v1.4.0.0 does not list plenty of new features – “under the hood” there have been a lot of changes in order to make FileScout even more stable and memory efficient.

• What’s new?
  • New Simple TextViewer/Editor Option: Select how files will be saved. Either in ‘UNIX Format (CR)’ (default) or in’Windows Format (CRLF)’. By default BlackBerry is storing files in the UNIX Format – which makes editing afterwards e.g. with Windows Notepad a bit difficult.
  • Additional small tweaks for OS5.x Users
  • Storm 2 (9520/9550) will be treated as the Storm 9500/9530 devices (but still no touch screen support yet)
  • Added a MenuItem for the “Go to Directory” [SHIFT]+[G] function
  • Various performance and memory issue improvements
• What’s fixed?
  • Sometimes FileScout was instantly started again after it was closed by the user (e.g. when during the FileScout session some media files had been opened) – this issue should be solved with this build.
