Professional Data Security (PDS) 1.0 - Changelog

What's new in Professional Data Security (PDS) 1.0 Beta 8.2:

December 30th, 2010

Have Base64 encoded files break at 80 char's per line:
· This was done in earlier releases. This may have changed when support for raw devices was added. Seems like writing "to tape" did not work with the break at 80 char.
· Seems like it should be possible to support some sort of flag to distinguish between raw vs. file, so that files could break at 80.
