2 replies · 3,579 views · Started 04 February 2003

A whole bunch of improvements like full support for the MGS games and a favourites view which makes it even faster to decompress your most used items [read more]

Full improvement list:
- Favourites view was added. If you often compress/decompress any custom
files/folders you can define now a group including any number of such
files
and folders. The whole group can be compressed/decompressed in one key
press.
E.g. you can define groups 'My pictures', 'My videos', etc.

- Full support for MGS games were added, now all MGS games are
compressed/decompressed automatically with MGS console.
If you have MGS installed now please recompress it to affect changes.

- Small logic bug fixed (sometimes, very seldom though, when you quit an
application stacker didn't pack it)

- Recover logic improved. If you start a compressed program and then
power off or restart your device without closing the program
(and decompressing it) then you can simply start Stacker and it
will automatically compress all programs that remain uncompressed
because of restart.

- Recover logic improved. Improved logic when you upgrade application
that was compressed.

- Application info command added

- Stacker can add any (compressed and not) listed applications to
favourites (PinBoard) now.

- Joystick button shows menu now

- Running apps are displayed with different icon in Stacker's view now

- Now file names that includes spaces can be compressed/decompressed
in built-in file browser as well

- Add to favourites command added

- Total saved space is displayed in program's caption now. In apps view
it's an amount of space saved by compressing the apps, in favourites
view it's amount of space saved by compressing custom files and folders
you have defined.

- Some small interface and many logic improvements were made

There's no need to unpack all compressed applications, just install
this version over the previous one.

There is new version of Stacker. It is now version 3.00

Changes in Stacker 3.00

- Has been tested and is fully compatible with Nokia 3650 as well as with Nokia 7650.

- Compact Contacts Database was added.
What is this for? Stacker can compact contacts database by removing unused blocks in its files (defragging). These block appear in process of editing or deleting data in such files. Compacting will not only save some space on disk it will even speed up working with your contacts!

- Compact memory command was added. It will reclaim some executable memory from system. Now there's no need to restart your device to get the maximum amount of memory available.

- When starting Stacker it shows 'waiting for complete' message if there is background compressor working until compressor finishes its work.

- Warning about compressing apps with Embedding capability.

- Some minor improvements in logic and interface.
