   Default Folder X 4.7.1

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   St. Clair Software has released [1]Default Folder X 4.7.1, fixing a bug
   in OS X 10.10.3 Yosemite that caused Carbon applications (such as
   Microsoft Word and Excel) to always default to the Documents folder.
   The Open and Save dialog enhancement utility now keeps better track of
   the Finder's windows when the Finder is hidden automatically by other
   utility software (if this problem persists, Option-click on Default
   Folder X's Settings button and turn on the ShowHiddenFinderWindows
   checkbox). The release also prevents a crash that could occur after
   encountering an alias file that incorrectly refers to itself, ensures
   that folders within DEVONthink databases no longer appear in the Recent
   Folders menu, and enables resizing of the filename edit box in Save
   dialogs on 10.9 Mavericks (as well as Yosemite). ($34.95 new, $10 off
   for [2]TidBITS members, free update, 11.0 MB, [3]release notes, 10.6+)
