misc: introducing new more accurate statistics
misc: statistics window is now resizeable and remembers size/position

fixed: some typos
fixed: several internal statistic based stuff
fixed: issue with compressed descriptions (aka dir2dat description problem)
All your existing profiles are reset to grey when using this for the first time. You have to rescan them.

a somehow "in between" release. Since I'm currently preparing a house move I better release what I got at the moment....

added:
1st part of the upcoming new toy "Rename Wizard".
You may know about the major set renames in latest MAME, well the Rename Wizard should help you in the future to update e.g. related datfiles (like artwork datfiles, etc...). The basic idea is: Load an old datfile and a new datfile. Find set renames. Apply the renames to a third datfile (e.g. artwork) either to rom or set level and save this dat. So the 1st step is to find set renames.
Logiqx's MAMEDIFF is usually used for such a thing but MAMEDIFF isn't as accurate as you might think. So Logiqx and myself though about other ways to find renames. The current idea is a 6-path check (from highest to lowest prio).

1) unique set hash compare: Hash is created over all rom/disk hashes and in case of nodumps or samples over names. Hash lookup tries to find a matching set.
2) single unique rom hash compare: Take a single unique rom hash of old datfile set and check if it's a single unique hash in new datfile. Use this to find a matching set
3) single unique chd hash compare: similar to 2) but on chds
4) fuzzy name check: similar to cmpro's scanner set name check. Tries to find the 'best fit' name
5) lazy description compare: try to match the descriptions
6) lazy set compare: try to match the setname

Currently a complete set list is produced showing something like:
old name -> new name [succeeded matching method] or *old name -> new name [succeeded matching method] or old name -> ? (when no match was found....propably a removed set) The * indicates a name change.

This part is already in...you can play around with it if you like.
The next steps will be:
- optionally disallow parent-to-clone renames (since a lot of dats work on parent sets only)
- load and apply changes on 3rd datfile
The Rename Wizard is not directly visible at the moment...but still easy to find. Check out popup menus if you want to know more ABOUT it.

added: warning when 'Sets' scan option is not enabled
added: dir2dat option to create a 0 byte file for empty folders
misc: show common rebuilder warnings only once and not per addpath
misc: improved fuzzy set name check
fixed: xml dats with UTF ByteOrderMark aren't listed in profiler
fixed: when using header support, rom size values are wrong
fixed: offline datfiles 0 crc/ 0 size issue

More on rename wizard:
changed analysis to 5-pass: 1) unique set hash 2) single unique rom hash match 3) single unique chd hash match 4) description match 5) setname match
detecting removed, added and replaced sets
new layout, list control, sortable columns
acess via Profiler Button
keeping positions and options
added option for enable/disable parent rename
added option for enable/disable rename to multiple new name
detecting new, removed and replaced sets
export to clipboard, file and file (mamediff format)
diff button only reparses files if needed
ability to apply renames to a 3rd datfile (e.g. an artwork datfile). You can select 'apply on sets' or 'apply on roms' method. 'Apply On Sets' renames set name (description, year, manufacturer, romof, cloneof, sourcefile tags optionally), while 'Apply on Roms' renames rom name, rom merge tags. In case of roms, it checks the names with and without extensions, so you can easily have them as e.g. *.png. This 'Apply' option will only do the renames. Removed, added, replaced sets are not handled. Usage example: Enter paths to a MAME .133 datfile as old and MAME .133u3 datfile as new. Hit 'diff' and see what the renames......now load a MAME flyersdatfile for .133 as 'Modify DatFile'. Enable 'Apply On Roms' and hit 'Apply Renames'. It will create you a *_new.dat with the updated roms.

3.133

added: introducing 'DIFF SCAN'. A new scan functionality which knows which sets did change from a previous datfile to the current one and with this option you will only scan the sets which did change. 'Change' in terms of important changes which makes a rescan necessary (e.g. a checksum or rom name change, NOT a description change). When e.g. MAME updates, 99% of all sets stay the same, there is not really a need to rescan them (unless you changed them manually). You can now use the diff scan option. It's only selectable if at least one set differs and not all do differ. This function is robust against cache-clearing. In the set information window you can use the popup menu in the tree to show only the changed sets if you're interested in them.
added: archives in archives (...in archives...) are supported now for the rebuilder. Removing rebuilt files is limited to the root level though.
added: writing profiler.xml file when you leave cmpro, you can use this xml for any of your own xslt/html building usage
