This is a preview before an official 1.1 release. I would greatly appreciate it if a few people could give it a sanity check before I release it in the plugins forum thread. There have been a significant number of internal changes so I would rather get any problems found here first
You will need Calibre 0.7.59 as I have incorporated Chaley's additions to the API to speed up subsequent binary comparison scans.
Changes in this release compared to 1.0:- Support a new search type of binary comparisons
- Redesigned GUI dialog to make more obvious the choice of Title/Author, ISBN and Binary
- Replaced the way exemptions are persisted and managed to make more manageable users choosing to exempt very large groups
Note that you will lose any exemptions you had set previously - I decided it wasn't worth the effort to try to migrate them. If you know that for a particular algorithm you have no duplicates in the results from using the plugin previously, then you can just run it again and mark all groups as exempt to store the new exemptions.
Particular thanks to chaley for his code snippets and ideas for many of the changes.
Any feedback much appreciated.
