Bookdrop 2.5

New look

Bookdrop now looks and works like a standard Mac app.

• Book screen: the options are in grouped sections, like System Settings, with every row aligned. The book's cover, author and details are at the top, and "EPUB → PDF" is shown next to Convert. Press Return to convert.
• Window: one title bar, with Back and Settings in the toolbar. File › Open… (⌘O) opens books from any screen.
• Settings: a real Settings window (⌘,) with General, Conversion and Advanced tabs.
• Recent conversions: file icons, dates such as "2 days ago", and Open and Show in Finder when you point at a row. Double-click opens the file. Files that were moved or deleted are marked. Clearing the list now asks first.
• "A file with this name already exists": a standard alert with Keep Both, Replace and Cancel.
• Converting, done and error screens: simpler, with the progress shown once, the file's own icon when it is done, and the problem stated first when something fails.
• Batch conversion: you can now choose the folder to save to, and each book shows its progress, a check mark, or what went wrong.
• Plainer option names, for example "Book title at the top of each page".

Fixed

• With a long list of recent conversions, the top of the window (including Settings) was pushed out of view.
