 # MultiPar
 
-v1.3.2.0 is public
+### v1.3.2.5 is public
 
-  This is a beta version to test new encoder & decoder. 
-I implemented a way of Cache Blocking for CPU's L3 cache optimization. 
-It will calculate multiple blocks at once on multi-Core CPU. 
-Old method calculated each block independently, 
-and could not avail the advantage of shared memory. 
-New method may use shared L3 cache more often, and will be fast on recent PCs.
+  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.
 
-  Thanks [prdp19 and Slava46](https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar/issues/47) for many tests. 
-Thanks [Anime Tosho](https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar/issues/21) for some idea and advice. 
-Also, other users aided my development. 
-Without their help, I could not perform this speed improvement.
+  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.
 
-  While new version seems to be faster on most cases, 
-it may happen to be slow for a few blocks. 
-Though I don't know the speed on old PCs, it may not become slow. 
-If you see a failure or strange result, please report the incident with ease. 
-I will try to solve as possible as I can.
-
-  I adjusted CPU usage slider for CPUs with many Cores. 
-Now, each position will set different number of threads always.  
-Left most      : 1/4 of CPU cores  
-One from left  : 2/4 of CPU cores  
-Middle         : 3/4 of CPU cores  
-One from right : 4/4 of CPU cores, or use one less threads on CPU with 6 or more Cores.  
-Right most     : May use one more threads on CPU with 5 or less Cores.  
-
-  I improved calculating hash of multiple source files. 
-From my testing result, I changed default number of threads for NVMe SSD. 
-When you use a raid-system or external drive, it cannot detect the drive type. 
-If it fails to detect, it uses HDD mode by default. 
-At MultiPar options, it's possible to change the setting manually. 
-You may select one of them; HDD, SSD, or Fast SSD. 
-Caution, you should not select SSD, if your using drive is HDD.
+  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.
