HoN Modification Manager 1.3.6

v1.3.6 [31.03.10]: Fixed detection of MacOS, Mono was lying and telling modman it was Unix / Linux. This should also fix the default HoN installation directory under MacOS not being auto-detected.
v1.3.5 [31.03.10]: Fixed version 1.3.4 which wouldn't work at all for Linux / Mac users because the ~ shortcut for the user directory could not be used.
v1.3.4 [30.03.10]: Adapted mod directories for Linux and Mac in accordance to patch 0.3.1. For Linux and Mac users .honmods now go into a different directory, see section 3.
v1.3.3 [25.03.10]: Fixed a cosmetic bug.
v1.3.2 [25.03.10]: Fixed a bug where version requirement strings were found not to be matching when they really were.


v1.3.1 [22.03.10]:

Fixes
=====
- Fixed a crash when a honmod file could not be copied into the mods folder, and replaced it with an error message.
- Fixed a minor internal bug.


v1.3.0 [21.03.10]:

File Format
===========
  <no changes>

User Interface
==============
- Added an option to display version numbers behind the mod names (as was default pre-1.1).
- Displayed mod names can now be edited, and mods are now always sorted by name.
- Fixed "missing required mod" error messages to properly display the mod name and suggest to visit the mod's website for a link to the required mod.
- Multiple mod selection is now possible.
- Cleaner, less cluttered update reports.

Features
========
- .honmod files can now be "opened with" the mod manager, installing them. Added a prompt on first run to register the file type and options to un/register the file type. [file type association is Windows only]
- Added a feature to export selected enabled mods as s2z file. This can be accessed from the context menu ("right-click menu").
- Hopefully added support for the upcoming FE2 user interface overhaul. This only concerns the automatic reminder to re-apply mods after patching.


v1.2.2 [08.02.10]:

Fixes
=====
- Fixed a bug with dependency cycle detection causing it to be over-cautious.


v1.2.1 [26.01.10]:

Fixes
=====
- Fixes two bugs and a spelling mistake introduced in 1.2. The bugs were concerning ignoring of modification compatibility/ordering instructions if they were placed after a non-empty editfile tag and skipping ahead too far when skipping editfile blocks with unfulfilled conditions.


v1.2.0 [18.01.10]:

File Format
===========
- Added <findup/> operation (synonyms seekup and searchup) which searches backwards.
- Added <applyafter name="modasdf" version="3.0"/> directive setting mod application order in case that other mod is enabled as well (and "applybefore", similary).
- Added an optional "condition" attribute to editfile and copyfile which allows the tags to only have effect if a given condition is true. A condition can consist of another mod being enabled or disabled or a boolean expression combining multiple such conditions. See documentation for examples.
- When the source for an operation is given in place (not via the source attribute) and all the content is in a CDATA node, then surrounding whitespace-only text nodes are ignored; this should allow for nicer mod formatting.

User Interface
==============
- When being automatically prompted to apply mods after a patch successful patching will prompt to start HoN.
- Pressing the Return key will toggle the selected mod's enabledness.
- When choosing "Update Mods" without any updatable mods present it'll say so and not just open a blank window; renamed "Update Mods" to "Download Mod Updates".
- All the letters of "Visit Website" should now be part of the link under Linux/MacOS
- Removed "Large Icons" view, renamed "List" to "Vertical List" and "Small Icons" to "Horizontal List"; added a checkmark next to the active view.

Features
========
- Added option to set command line arguments to use when launching HoN.
- When displaying the "String not found" error the first non-empty line of the string is now displayed in the message.
- Any error during mod application now comes with the number of the guilty line in mod.xml.

Fixes
=====
- Fixed a bug with the mod updater where the downloaded new version would become corrupted if its file was smaller than the original version's.
- Fixed several cases of hardcoded backslashes to use normal slashes on unix-based systems which should fix a lot of problems on Linux and Mac OS.
- If a mod's icon cannot be rendered due to missing implementation of that specific format in Mono, it'll no longer crash, but instead ignore the icon.
- "Unapply all mods" now also disables all mods.
- Improved path guessing a bit more.
- Other small fixes and changes.


v1.1.0 [27.11.09]:

File Format
===========
- Added the <findall/> operation tag: applies the following insert, add, replace or delete to all occurrences of the sought string in the file.
- Added attributes updatecheckurl and updatedownloadurl to the modification tag, which specify URLs returning the current mod version in plain text and the current mod file itself, respectively. (only supports HTTP and HTTPS)
- Note that it is strongly recommended to set the mmversion attribute to "1.1" when using either of the format additions above.

User Interface
==============
- Fell back to the default visual style for menus.
- Added the refresh (F5) option as menu entry.
- Added menu entries to change the view mode of the mod list (some may look the same or similar; possibly a few of the options will be removed later).
- Added menu option to open mods folder (also releases all file handles on the mod files).
- Added a context menu to the list view, containing "Enable/Disable", "Check for Updates" and "Delete" (all of which have keyboard shortcuts)
- Added a a command to delete mods directly from the mod manager window (shortcut key: Del)
- Added "unapply all mods" option for people trying to remove their only mod while considering "applying mods" an illogical option.
- Mod versions are no longer cluttering the main list view but are now displayed in the status bar when selecting a mod
- Made some error messages more explanatory; troubleshooting section will be shortened soon!
- Can no longer open multiple instances of the mod manager under Windows.

Features
========
- The long anticipated mod updating features are here! See file format changelog for specifics.
- When a new patch is released users will be reminded to re-apply their mods in HoN's main menu until they do so.
- When launching the mod manager after a new patch has been applied it will suggest to apply mods right away (in case you only started it to do this mandatory reapplying after patches).
- Mod enabled-ness is no longer independent from mod applied-ness! When you open the mod manager only applied mods will be enabled (this information is read from resources999.s2z) and if you don't apply mods after enabling/disabling mods it will prompt you to do so when closing the application.
- Now guesses most common HoN paths on Windows, Linux and Mac; also uses simple heuristics to strip "\game" and "\game\mods" from wrong user-specified paths.
- Now supports retrieving the game version and launching the game on Mac.
- Will now automatically request admin privileges when run on an UAC enabled system!

Fixes
=====
- Incorrect HoN paths are now always properly detected and will cause most functions to disable and the path prompt to appear every time you start the mod manager.
- If multiple mod files with the same mod name are found it will now load the one with the highest version number (previously it loaded the one with the lexicographically smaller file name).
- Incompatibilities are now properly enforced no matter in what order you enabled two incompatible mods when only one of them specifies the incompatibility (only affects visuals, processing was correct before as well).
- Other miscellaneous fixes I forgot about.
- Started commenting the code.
