Thanks for your response. Yes, I tried to read the changes notes but
gave up... zzzz... I will go to bed without dessert tonight. ; -)
BUT, I still miss a lot my disk browser feature. Maybe I am too lazy,
but I really hate the need to close the files in my Documents Panel to
clear my workspace when I open them with project window. Sometimes I
don't remember or know the file I am looking for and I just want to
browse them with disk browser without opening them. Moreover, I used a
lot the folder dragging feature with Multi-file search. I opened a
disk browser and selected it in the Multi-file search window.

 I click on the wrong files, I have a new file on my Document Panel
and it is getting more difficult to find the good ones, therefore I
need to close it. When I drag a folder on my BBEdit icon, I just want
to look at a bunch of files.
