What's new in this version:

- EagleFiler now requires macOS 10.9 or later
- When dragging in an attached file from a rich text view (e.g. OmniFocus or TextEdit), EagleFiler now imports the file itself rather than creating an RTFD file with the attached file inside
- The Batch Change… window remembers whether you had selected Append or Replace
- Added support for indexing more types of files attached to e-mail messages
- The keyboard shortcut for the EagleFiler: Import With Options service is now localized for German, so that the Command-Shift-Option-1 combination still works with the different keyboard layout
- Pressing the capture key while in Reeder 4 now shows instructions for importing from Reeder to EagleFiler
- The How can I put my library on my iPhone? section of the manual notes that EagleFiler works with 1Writer
- Added preliminary support for macOS 10.15 (which is now in beta)
- EagleFiler now plays movie files using AVFoundation instead of QuickTime. This improves performance and offers compatibility with macOS 10.15, however some older files that use 32-bit codecs will no longer be playable. You may be able to use IINA or VLC instead
- Worked around a change in macOS 10.15 that prevented EagleFiler browser windows from opening
- The software updater now works on macOS 10.15
- Brought back the old mailbox icon, as macOS 10.15 no longer has one built-in
- Capturing from Apple Mail now works on macOS 10.15
- Increased the maximum width of the # column so it doesn’t get truncated for mailboxes with very large numbers of messages
- Increased the maximum width of the Size column to prevent truncation with large font sizes
- Improved the property descriptions in the AppleScript dictionary
- Improved the identification and display of mailbox files that have mailformed headers containing NUL characters
- EagleFiler now limits the amount of a text file to index, to avoid running out of RAM and hanging the indexing process if you have a file that’s hundreds of MBs
- There’s now a 10-second timeout when accessing the text content of a record via AppleScript to prevent the user interface from hanging if PDFKit gets stuck. This is adjustable via the TextToolScriptTimeout esoteric preference
- Worked around an AVFoundation bug could cause internal errors when viewing an old movie file
- Improved reporting of Python launch errors
- Fixed a bug where a Web archive could open an ad window in Safari
- Fixed a regression where the toolbar buttons for creating new records were inappropriately disabled
- Fixed a regression where the Mac App Store version of EagleFiler didn’t include the manual
- Fixed an internal error when using the Drop Pad
- Fixed a bug where importing a message with MailTags tags but no project could result in an empty tag being applied
- Fixed a bug importing notes with very long titles from Evernote
- Updated to Python 2.7.16 and PyObjC 5.2
