 # MultiPar
 
-v1.3.1.5 is public
+### v1.3.2.5 is public
 
- This version has some trial functions. 
-I fixed some problems of previous versions. 
-Though I tested the behavior on my PC, 
-there may be a bug in other environments or in a rare case. 
-Be careful to use this version for daily usage. 
-When you want a stable version, 
-you should not use this new one until other users try. 
-Unless you have a problem, v1.3.0.7 or v1.3.1.3 might be safe. 
-If you see a strange behavior, odd problem, or failure, 
-please report the incident to me. 
-I will fix as possible as I can. 
+  This is a minor update version. 
+When you don't see any problem in your using version, you don't need to replace. 
+I updated development environment from Visual Studio 2019 to Visual Studio 2022. 
+The supported OS is same as previous version (Windows Vista or later). 
+If you see a compatibility issue, please report with ease.
 
- I increased max block size from 1 GB (old versions) to 2 GB (new version). 
-This change is for rare case. 
-Normally users should not set so large block size in most case. 
-For compatibility, setting less than 100,000,000 bytes = 95 MB is good. 
-Be careful, MultiPar cannot treat too large block size properly. 
-When you have a set of PAR2 files with more than 2 GB block size (such like 4 GB), 
-par2cmdline may support them. 
-I adjusted some GUI components for big numbers. 
-If you see something bad in your language UI, please let me know. 
+  I test two new features on MultiPar GUI. 
+They are [Fixed redundancy size](https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar/issues/69) 
+and [Add file status sorting function](https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar/issues/71) 
+on GitHub issues. 
+I changed the behavior of "RedundancyMax" and "Sort" option on "MultiPar.ini". 
+If many users like it, I may change the default behavior in future.
 
- I implemented a function to calculate MD5 hash of multiple files at verifying source files. 
-It seems to be faster on SSD. (I cannot test the speed by myself.) 
-But, it is slow on HDD. 
-It detects your drive type and switches function automatically. 
-If it fails and happens to be slow on your PC, 
-please report your case. 
-Because I don't know SSD's property so much, I will need help of users. 
-Thanks John L. Galt for tests and bug report on SSD. 
-
- There was a bug in v1.3.1.4, and created PAR2 files happened to contain broken packets. 
-MD5 hash of some packets were wrong. 
-When a file size was multiple of block size, the problem occurred. 
-Such PAR2 files are shown as damaged on MultiPar verification, 
-and v1.3.1.4 could not verify source files without checksum packets. 
-I fixed the bug in v1.3.1.5, and it can verify source files now. 
-Though it's possible to use such broken PAR2 files (created by v1.3.1.4), 
-you would better recreate new PAR2 files with this new version. 
-I'm sorry for the inconvenience. 
-Thanks nutpantz for this bug report. 
-
- When you created many PAR2 files (more than 512), verification had failed in previous versions. 
-I (and many users) didn't see this bug for long time. 
-Normally people don't create so many PAR2 files. 
-Thanks Martin Klefas-Stennett for finding this rare problem. 
+  This year, I started to learn Python. 
+It's useful than Batch script. 
+It's possible to show GUI. 
+I will use it to make simple tools. 
+Python is much easier than C language, however it seems to be slow. 
+I put some Python script files in `tool` folder of MultiPar. 
+Users may edit them for thier usage. 
+I added help documents for Python script, too.
