Thanks!
The version 4 update is a free for purchases after Oct 1st, 2007, but you will most likely need a new registration code.

Cool, that means I will get a free upgrade also. Since MerleOne does not like version 4 too much, I wonder what the rest of you (who both used v3 and v4) thinks?
I would like to update mostly because of this new feature in v4 that I requested back then:
Files to be deleted are now deleted before new files are copied to avoid running out of space on the target disk.

MerleOne:
I would just like to point out that I do like v4 for the extra features, it's just that I miss some aspects of the V3 GUI.
Also, I feel something is missing from both versions : when I preview the files to be synced, I sometimes note that a given file, for instance 'my_very_big_file.mpg', should be excluded from all syncs from now on. All I can do from the preview windows is manually enter a new exclusion rule, I would much prefer to have a goodsync-like feature where I just right click on this item and chose "exclude my_very_big_file.mpg". When the path/file name is complicated, entering it manually is a big cause of error.
Apart from that it really stands out !
brotherS:
Ah, ok. Which are the "aspects of the V3 GUI" that you miss?
And did you write them, suggesting that those - and the file exclusion feature you mentioned - could be added?

I sent this suggestion once to the developer back in May 2007. Regarding V3 GUI, I think you had all parameters in view when launching a sync. Now you to have to go into edit mode. Also I liked the color theme better.
J-Mac:
I agree that it is a bit of a pain - small pain, not a big pain! - to have to open the Edit window to see what your parameters are for any given job. I think that v.3 had a "Summary" view that showed a lot of the main parameters. I could be confusing this with a different sync program though. (My memory is going......... :huh: :o ).
Also, a few updates ago the new (or revised?) Safety feature defaulting to NOT performing the sync if a certain percentage of deletions was to occur drove me nuts until I discovered that setting. I think Tobias changed that a few updates later, but I had already changed all of mine manually.
Generally a very good program IMO.
