Version 0.72
 License:   Other Open Source License
 Updated:   November 13, 2001
 Source:   Source Included
Ok, it's been quite a while but I'm going to do a bit of work on Peek because it's almost my holiday.

  • I've removed the thumbnail browsing features. Other applications do it far better.
  • The plugin features have been removed. Nobody seemed to use it.
  • I've added an extra viewing mode - Image scaled to window, so that's a feature that's worth the new version.
  • The settings file is now text - but I don't think that will help anyone.
  • Modified the fullscreen mode.
  • *Fixed a lot of bugs and inconsistencies*
  • Added CD-ROM support for image loading.
  • A return to the original goals of this project.

I think it's worth upgrading to this version. My thanks to everyone who likes peek and sends me comments.

Included languages: English, German

Version 0.69
 License:   GPL
 Updated:   May 23, 2001
 Source:   Source Included

The last version should not have been released and there were many mistakes in the release. I had a look at it recently and felt so bad that I've decided to pre-release the next version as 0.69.

New stuff:

  • Folder plugins - I've included a plugin that can convert whole directories (or parts of it) to any format you can support. There is documentation on how to make plugins. The format will not change so you can, if you like, make a plugin which will be carried through for many versions.
  • Proper thumbnail browsing - The last version just created an index image. This version actually has thumbnails you can select and drag & so on. It's sucks memory and is slow. (at the moment.)
  • Cropping images.
  • "Save as" menu command put back in.

Version 0.6
 License:   GPL
 Updated:   March 4, 2001
 Source:   Source Included
This is not so much an improvement as it is a lateral step. I completely rewrote the code (never again). Slight improvements include:
  • Multiple language support.
  • Thumbnail image generation.
  • Different layout. (Menu's and options)
  • More options.
Are you happy with 0.5? There might not be a reason for you to upgrade to this version unless you like something in the above list.

Several bugs have been corrected and a few small nice-making features have been added.

  • Mouse wheel support added. yay.
  • Removed the background setting bug.
  • Fixed the slider bar problem.
  • Added some small alterations which make it more useable.
  • Additional threading of the file list (ie. it's faster now.)
  • Better HTML help pages - still under construction.

Version 0.4
 License:   GPL
 Updated:   October 13, 2000
 Source:   Source Included
This is version 0.4. Quite a lot has changed and improved. I've removed some bugs and it's a lot more useful now. It's definitely worth downloading if you're using any older version.
  • Please note: Two or three keyboard mappings have changed to correspond to other BeOS applications.
  • Peek now accepts files sent to it via Tracker. This was a major oversight in previous versions. So you can launch Peek by double-clicking on a file in tracker if you set it as your default image viewer in FileTypes.
  • Peek now also has the option to launch into a compact mode when loaded this way. It's very similar to ShowImage's setup.
  • Peek handles very large directories now.
  • There was a bug in the desktop background manipulation routines. This has been fixed and an extra check put in place. You can also now set all of the desktops to the selected pic instead of just the current one.
  • You can now adjust the width of the file list and the image view by the means of a "slider" between the two but I wouldn't recommend using it.
  • The file list can now be hidden.
  • There are a couple more options to control the way Peek works.
  • Clipboard functions have been added.
  • A few memory leaks have been fixed.

Version 0.3
 License:   Freeware
 Updated:   September 23, 2000

This is the initial release of version 0.3. It's basically stable and I've think I've cleared away a lot of bugs. There should be no errors any where.
