Scripting will, for example, allow fully flexible and automatic download management, Repair & Extract management, etc.. #: For a complete list of changes since NewsLeecher V4 Final, check this page: https://www.newsleecher.com/version-history/ *: Only very minor changes since most recent beta (beta 19).
Along with the release notes for NL v5.1 Beta:
*: It is now possible to cancel ongoing cleaning of subscribed Usenet groups. This is sometimes wanted, as cleaning can take a long time for larger groups. *: Smaller visual improvements. !: When cleaning of subscribed Usenet groups was initiated, the NewsLeecher interface would freeze until the procedure had finished. This has been fixed, so the interface is also responsive while cleaning is in progress. #: Note that we are working on improvement the performance of the group cleaning procedure for an upcoming release.
