Otherwise, it fetches the depot head-rev copy for read-only viewing. #4424 Performance: Depot listing slightly faster, and open files listing update is 10-15 times faster. #4357 Performance: Now uses 30% less memory. #4351 Add optional display of file open action and change description to pending changes window. #4303 Detect and appropriately sort depot listing from case-insensitive servers. #4272 Server/Client info window made cut-pasteable - also includes OS version and service pack info. #4269 Allow edit, delete, lock and unlock to operate on folders in the depot window. #4259 File history dialog now is sizeable, and the text window has scrollbars as required when the window is sized smaller than the text control contents #4258 File history revision list control now sorts bi-directional when column headers clicked. #4249 Defined double click actions for list views. Client and user views run describe, and all other list views run edit when double clicked. #4248 All list views now have bi-directional sort. The job, branch and label views resort automatically when a new item is created, and scroll the new item into view. #4243 Spec dialog upgrade: droplists for user jobviews and job status fields #4126 Updated dialogs for add files. The dialog allows the target change for added files to be altered, to support drag-drop from file mangler (NT 3.51) or file-finder file adding. #3927 Make window position and state, and splitter bar position persistent #3871 Replace options dialog with a tabbed dialog, with a tab dedicated to file-app associations.

This allows delete under a specific change. #3844 File information dialog, accessible in depot window, to show all relevant file parameters, including a list of who has the file open or locked. #3685 At startup, check to see if a previous instance of p4win is running.
