Burnz is a drag-and-drop disc-burning application that burns data discs at least twice as fast as the Finder on most Macs -- up to 10 times faster according to Thinkertons. [Applelinks.com] What's New: Version 1.1.11 fixes a bug in Burnz's handling of broken "antique" aliases -- aliases that were created by "Classic" Mac OS systems of about OS 8.0 and earlier vintage. This bug _could_ cause Burnz to unexpectedly quit when it encountered a broken antique or defective alias. The "antique" aliases are decidedly incomplete compared to "modern" aliases and return unexpected and incomplete results when fed to the OSX alias-handling API. Burnz now extracts the HFS filename and volume name from these aliases and displays this information in the Alias Resolution panel. This update also improves the way Burnz handles aliases that are abjectly defective -- such as ones that have had their resource fork discarded by an alien filesystem. As Finder aliases keep all of their information in the resource fork, having it discarded is rather lethal to the alias's functionality. This change does not affect how Burnz handles _working_ aliases of whatever vintage. |  |
