Announcing BTTB v4.2.0: Offline JSON Index, PAR3 Parity Protection & Error Correction!

Burn to the Brim (BTTB) has been upgraded to v4.2.0! This landmark release introduces a comprehensive offline JSON Index creator and parser, enabling seamless multi-volume catalog browsing. It also adds an optional, highly robust Reed-Solomon Cauchy-based PAR3 parity archive generator, native verification of multi-volume integrity, and completely safe, copy-based restoration and repair.

Key Features ⚡ Recursive Backtracking

Calculates mathematically optimal subset-sum selections in milliseconds using a responsive, thread-safe C++20 background architecture. 🧠 Neural Semantic Packing

Group files together intelligently by extensions, sizes, or context using out-of-process MiniLM sentence embeddings vectors. (v4.0.0+) 📂 Split-Depth Control

Establish traversal waterlevels, giving you precise recursive command over atomic versus granular folder mappings. 🎯 RegEx Rule Groupings

Force matching items to pack together on specific volumes utilizing standard wildcards or regular expressions. 💿 Auto Volume Sizing

Automatically calculates optimal volume capacity bounds based on the size of the largest indivisible file or folder. (v4.1.0+) 💾 Settings Memory & Custom Profiles

Restores your last selected volume profile upon startup, with full support for creating and saving named custom volume sizes. (v4.1.0+) 🔍 Offline JSON Index File

Creates a detailed index.json containing relative paths, sizes, and dates across all volumes, with a built-in fast JSON token parser for offline retrieval. (v4.2.0+) 🛡️ PAR3 Parity Protection

Integrates Reed-Solomon Cauchy codes (via libpar3) to build, verify, and restore damaged multi-volume sets securely, keeping source data untouched. (v4.2.0+) 💻 Modern Cross-Platform GUIs

Gorgeous GTK4 desktop interface with dark theme support on Linux and lightweight, native visual styling under Windows. (v4.2.0+)
