   FYI, DFSee version 14 BETA vailable for evaluation     
      
   With the beta released today, it is possible to access compressed imagefiles   
   (IMZ)   
   as normal partitions or disks, and amlthough read-only, it still allows you to   
   COPY any   
   individual files or whole directories from such images, using the BROWSE   
   functionality.     
      
   It will allow you to browse through most filesystems, and view/edit/copy   
   individual files.   
   You can also MARK several files and copy/recover all of them to a safe place.     
      
      
   For a quick test, just start DFSee and use the menu:     
      
    File ->   
    Browse IMZ compressed image     
      
      
   Or, for example from an OS/2 commanline, to copy some files from a backup   
   image:     
      
    dfsos2 imz mybackup.imz     
      
       
      
   Feel free to try out these new features, with the beta that can be downloaded   
   from:     
      
    http://www.dfsee.com/download/dfsee140.zip   
      
   For OS/2, you can also use the WARPIN installer:     
      
    http://www.dfsee.com/download/dfsee140_warpin.exe   
      
   And for Windows:     
      
    http://www.dfsee.com/download/dfsee140.msi   
      
   You can use those without a key, in evaluation mode.     
      
      
   However, if you planned to upgrade your DFSee registration anyway, there is NO   
   need   
   to wait for the official 14.x release, all registration keys issued after the   
   1st of october 2016 are valid for version 14!     
      
       
      
   At the moment the BROWSE function quite useful for accessing files that may be   
   hard to get to otherwise, like:     
      
    - Copying files from a partition or disk backup in compressed imagefiles (IMZ)   
    - Copying photo files from an ExFAT formatted SD-card, using OS/2   
    - Copy one or more files from another filesystem like EXT4 from OS/2 or   
   Windows   
    - Copy HPFS files from Linux or Windows   
    - Edit your Windows boot.ini file from OS/2 or a bootable DOS   
    - and many more ...     
      
   Browse is supported for the following filesystems: HPFS, JFS, NTFS, FAT(32),   
   ExFAT, EXT2/3/4     
      
      
   Another enhancement under consideration is direct access the VirtualBox .VDI   
   disk files,   
   so you could extract files from that without needing VirtualBox at all ...     
      
      
   Please have a go at the current functionality in the BETA, and let me know   
   what you think.   
   Just start DFSee as usual, then start browsing using the  key, or use the   
   various menu   
   items that give access to BROWSE.     
      
   Use the  key whenever you are unsure in any way, there is lots of context   
   aware HELP available explaining shortcut keys, menu items and dialogs. Also,   
   don't forget the single   
   line with help/description at the bottom of the screen!     
      
      
   Feedback highly appreciated!     
      
      
   Regards, JvW
