fix: fixed small memory leak introduced in previous version (occured when selecting default output folder)
new: option to select default output folder
change: "auto output file path generator" works a bit differently now
new: option to test for file size consistency; usually all except the last part have exactly the same file sizes
new: option to test if any parts are missing; if you have part .001 and .003, file joiner will report that you are missing part 2
change: shortcut for placing file joiner window on top is changed from T to Ctrl + T
new: menu items can now be accessed with Alt+(corresponding mnemonic), also menu items are now a bit rearranged
new: option to switch from number sorting to full path sorting; full path sorting is slower, but it's necessary when not using file joiner for .001/.002/.003 files
fix: "number sorting" sometimes added file with 0 at the end of the list
new: ability to stop join operation, "Join" button becomes "Stop"
changed the position of "Auto Sort" checkbox bellow "Sort" button; "Add File" and "Add Folder" buttons are now in old position of "Auto Sort" checkbox
new: option to delete parts to Recycle Bin instead directly; default state will be to delete to recycle bin
new: when you browse for the output file, file name will be pre populated with the name of first file from the list (without its extension)
improvement: status will display number of added files (except when you add single file)
added: open output folder option
added: delete parts when done option
fixed: gui problem when Windows text size was set to other then default (96dpi)
improvement: hash options position is changed so it looks a bit better then before and it will be turned off by default (on first start) so I don't scare people off :D

added: Add Folder functionality

added: checkbox "Exit when done"
added: CRC32 & MD5 hash calculation
fixed: when Windows visual style was not turned on, tooltips were not visible
