+
+version 1.0.1
+fix bug:
+- On interactive mode, checking if the two passphrases are the same fails something when stdin buffer isnt emptied before reading the first password.
+
+","(comma) is not a valid mount point path. the cli prevents this but the GUI just fails without informing a user why. Added a dialog to inform a user
+when they select comma as a mount point.
+
+comma as a mount point is disallowed because it sits right next to "dot" button and most people(ie. me) usually press "."(dot) key to mean "present working directory"
+but will miss the key and press comma key and start wondering why things arent they way they are supposed to be.
+The comma key should have been on the other side of the keyboard!!!
+
+version 2.0
+add support for adding and deleting keys in luks based volumes in the cli and gui.
+
+version 3.0
+add support for creating both plain and luks based volumes in both files and partitions.
+
+version 4.0
+-- host UI blocking code in a different threads to remove/minimize UI freezes
+-- use only cryptsetup.so library to interface with cryptsetup
+-- allow a user to select what random number generator to use
+-- add the ability to create key files
+-- Font size and type are now configurable
+-- add support for favorite volumes
+-- warn in the UI on attempt to delete a key when there is only one key left
+-- refuse to attemp to add more keys when key slots are full.
+-- implement tray icon to minimize to tray
+-- provide a complete docs in a header file on how to interface with libzuluCrypt.so
+-- include partitions in /etc/crypttab in a list of system partitions.
+
+version 4.1.0
+-- minor update, fix bugs comming from mishandling of files and paths with empty spaces in them.
+
+version 4.2.0
+-- minor update, volume in the favorite list could not be mounted, this version fix it.
+
+version 4.3.0
+-- fix bugs in zulucrypt-gui triggered by use of double quotes in file and path names
+-- fix a bug. fat based volumes mounted with wrong permissions and only root user could write to the opened volume
+-- volumw property now displays file system type, volume size, volume size used, volume size available and percentage used.
+-- Fix a bug that prevented adding a new key from key file to a luks volume when the existing key was from a passphrase.
+-- The password dialog had a bug and did not reset properly when the previous operation involved opening a keyfile.
+-- Add an option to close all opened volumes with a single click.
+-- Created volumes with extX file systems now use 1% reserved space instead of the default 5%.
+-- Encrypted files can now be created using "/dev/random","/dev/urandom" or "/dev/zero"
+-- Add a UI option to select a random number generator to use to all dialogs that deals with features that need it.
+-- Add option to just minimize or minimize to tray the main window.
+-- various other UI and functionality fixes.
+
+version 4.3.1
+-- A bit more UI effects when opening and closing of volumes.
+-- Context menu on opened volumes can now be triggered with CTRL+M or or menu key for better keyboard only management of the tool
+-- Device addresses can be given in a form of "/dev/XYZN" or "UUID=bla-bla-bla".
+-- various fixes
+-- A separate window to manage favorite volumes
+
+version 4.3.2
+-- ext3/ext4 can not be mounted with user specified permissions and they use the permissions set when the volume was last mounted.
+ This creates a problem on freshly created volumes because they always end up owned by root. This update fix the problem by setting
+ permissions everytime a volume is opened in read/write mode. If a volume open with root as owner, then reopen the volume in read/write
+ mode and permissions will be set properly(0700 with the owner being the user who opened the volume)
+
+
+version 4.3.3
+-- fix a bug that caused improper reading of key files if they were not made up of C strings.
+-- fix a bug triggered when attempting to open a plain type volume using aes-cbc-plain cypher( opening plain volume in legacy mode ).
+
+version 4.3.4
+-- fix a compilation bug on some system
+-- support libmount both above and below version 2.18

+-- use ntfs-3g to mount volumes that use ntfs file system.
+-- major cli interface change, run zulucrypt-cli --help for more info.
+-- normal users can not create volumes in system partitions but root user now can. system partition is defined as a partition
+ with active entry(not commented out) in /etc/fstab and /etc/crypttab.
+
+version 4.5.0
+-- add support for creating backups of luks headers and restoring luks headers
+-- add support for first writing random data to partitions before creating an encryped container in them.
+-- add support for "/etc/zuluCrypttab". A place to add additional paths to devices to be considered system devices.
+-- various security related fixes.

+
+version 4.5.2
+-- a quick update to fix a regression in stand alone file encryption.
+
+version 4.5.3
+-- add a plug in architecture. Its now possible to send zulucrypt-cli passphrases through different means, default plugins can retrieve
+ passphrases from kde kwallet,gnome keyring,gpg encryped key files and a combination of keyfile and passphrase.
+-- show a dialog to warn a user the volume will be opened in read only mode when whey tick the option for the first time.
+-- passphrases are sent to the back end in a more secure way using unix local socket.
+-- small attempt to hide passphrases from ps command if they are passed through the command line argument.
+-- passphrases stored in kde kwallet can be managed from within zulucrypt-gui if their support is enabled at build time.
+
+version 4.6.0
+-- add support for opening and closing of truecrypt volumes,this feature need cryptsetup >= 1.6.0
+

+-- add tcplay as an optional dependency to allow creation of truecrypt volumes
+-- fix bug:truecrypt volumes with multiple ciphers did not close properly
+-- fix bug:volumes did not close properly if mount point had a space character among others in it
+-- feature added:users who are members of "zulumount-exec" group will have their volumes opened with "exec" mount option.
+ This will allow them to be able to execute commands from the mount point.The default and recommended option is not mount with "noexec" option.
+-- feature added:A "-M" option is added that will create a publicly accessible "mirror" of a mount point in "/run/share" from the private
+ original one created in "/run/media/$USER.This option is there to allow a user to mount a volume and have it accessible from other users of the system.
+-- zuluMount-gui now adds and removed from its list as devices are added and removed from the system.A right click context menu option can be set to allow
+ unencrypted volumes to also be automounted.
+-- add a command line option to zuluMount-gui to start it up without showing the GUI
+
+version 4.6.3

+-- its now possible to open a truecrypt hidden volume
+-- add explicit support md raid based volumes
+-- add context menu entry in zuluMount-gui to open shared mount point folder

+version 4.6.4
+-- fix a build issue on some systems
+
+version 4.6.5
+-- add support for opening truecrypt system volumes
+-- add internatiolization support
+-- zuluMount-gui is now aware of volumes that are mounted or unmounted outside of it.This gives zuluMount-gui an ability to automount
+ newly attached devices.
+-- encrypted volumes that reside in files can be opened simply by drag and drop them in zuluCrypt-gui or zuluMount-gui windows
+
+version 4.6.6
+-- fix a regression,retrieving keys from kwallet using volume UUID broke.
+-- volumes in gnome are now stored in libsecret and no longer in libgnome-keyring
+-- add a GUI window in zuluCrypt-gui to manage keys in libsecret wallet,internal wallet and kde kwallet.
+-- add an internal system that can securely store keys independently of kde kwallet and gnome libsecret.Useful to those who
+ want to store keys securely but dont want gnome or kde dependencies
+-- add compile time option to use mount points in user home directory instead of "/run/media/private"
+-- NOTE: changes in management of wallets are not backward compatible and hence volumes will have to be readded after the update.My
+ apologies for the inconvenience.
+-- drop support for updating /etc/mtab and remove libmount as a required dependency

+
+version 4.6.9

+ -format is:one entry per line,example entry: UUID="abcf" uid=500
+-- fix a bug,if udev is enabled,mounted image files were always treated as system volumes.
+-- use libgcrypt for stand alone file encryption instead of cryptsetup.Newer stand alone encrypted files will have an extension of ".zC" to
+ distinguish them from previous ones that use ".zc".Older versions of zuluCrypt(<4.6.9) will not be able to open encrypted files that
+ end with ".zC".
+-- add an option in zuluCrypt GUI to specify a truecrypt volume type when saving or restoring a truecrypt header from a backup header file
