• Open a file without working through a hierarchy of directories- Just drag and drop a file onto the dropbox.

• Wading through piles of files? Use the up and down keys (F3 &F4) to open files sequentially and bypass the open file dialogue. Note that when you return to the open file dialogue it knows where you are.

• And if you want to delete a file, press shift-F3 or shift-F4. The files will be moved to a "deleted files" folder in their parent directory.

• And while you're at it, would you like to designate species codes or other information in your filenames? Edit the filename in the filename display text box, push the chng key and voilá.

• Want to hear what a spotted or mastiff bat really sounds like? Press the play real sound button. Or you can hear the real cadence of a feeding buzz (you get a virtual bat detector effect).

• And to further increase your listening pleasure: the sound play of zoom views corresponds to the zoom view (and the moving cursor keeps up with it all).

Other improvements and enhancements:

• New, more powerful filter options motivated by the insect noise in the eastern United States. They are called "anti-katydid" filters but will work against other noises as well.

• A new routine behind the screen palette: switching color/gray or black/white background automatically brings you to optimal default settings without having to adjust the intensity control as before

• Universal support for any detector sampling frequency.

• The return/enter key activates a std view, return/enter key also ends std view.

• Improved button arrangements in the Recorder and AutoRecorder to minimize mouse and keypad movements.
