Toucan 1.2 ReleasedSubmitted by Steve Lamerton on November 21, 2007 - 6:18pm
Toucan 1.2 has been released. Toucan is a tool for advanced users that allows you to sync,
backup and secure files on your device. This new release includes a number of small improvements as well as AES encryption (read on for important details on decrypting existing encrypted files). It's packaged in PortableApps.com Format for easy use from any portable device and integration with the PortableApps.com Suite. And it's open source and completely free. Features
PortableApps.com Installer / PortableApps.com FormatToucan is packaged in a PortableApps.com Installer so it will automatically detect an existing PortableApps.com installation when your drive is plugged in. And it's in PortableApps.com Format, so it automatically works with the PortableApps.com Suite including the Menu and Backup Utility. Whats New?Toucan 1.2 adds a small number of new features as well as a number of bugfixes. AES encryption has been added. This is faster than the old BURP algorithm and also appends an extension to your files, so you know exactly what has been encrypted. Drag and drop support has also been added along with a host of other small improvements. French translations are also included along with German. There have also been many bug fixed in this release, such as the mirror bug and the double backslash in portable variables bug. Important Note For 1.1 UpgradersAll encryption in 1.1 used Blowfish and as such if you wish to decrypt these files Blowfish must be selected as the decryption routine. DownloadToucan is available for immediate download from the Toucan homepage. Get it today! ( categories: )

Cool!

SICK!
And the releases keep coming?
DISGUSTING!
This is by far one of the most useful programs I've ever found. The sync feature is going to come in real handy at work. Great job as always!

Translation (a little late)
Hello friends from PA I don't know if you see it good or bad
What's bad is that I had information in my flash memory and I used this app to protect each file in my memory and it turns out that in the beginning I added another drive that is a dvd-rom and after that I could not open my files (unlock them from my memory), I think it has problems when windows changes drive letters. Now I have my files saved in my hard drive in case this app gets updated and I can recover them.

OK,
any chance you could translate this back for me.
As this sound like a bug could you please post a comment in the Toucan support forum. Toucan was written with changing drive letters in mind so this should be a problem. Which type of encryption were you using?

Traducción de Steve Lamerton:
Como esto suena como un problema puedes por favor poner tu pregunta en el foro de soporte de Toucan. Toucan fue escrito teniendo en cuenta que las letras del dispositivo cambian por lo tanto esto puede ser un problema. Que tipo de codificación utilizaste?

or on the home page...
Please search before posting. ~Thanks
Hmm,
good spot, Ryan, John???

No idea
It may be that it's manually updated and John hasn't yet bothered.

To
late it turns out that the feed on the frontpage, where it does show, is a different length to the RSS feed, where it doesn't.

Yeh,
I sorta noticed from the other conversation.

Recommendation
This is a great app! However, I would recommend that after the preview, when it asks to perform the full action it reads the log so it only does what it knows it has to do, because to me it sounds like it scans everything all over again... apart from that I love this!
Ideas are bulletproof.
