New Features:
Added powerful trigger system (when events occur, check some conditions and
execute a list of actions; see options dialog in 'Advanced'; more events /
conditions / actions can be added later based on user requests, and can also
be provided by plugins).
Native master key transformations (rounds) are now computed by the native
KeePassLibC support library (which contains the new, highly optimized
transformation code used by KeePass 1.15, in two threads); on dual/multi core
processors this results in almost triple the performance as before (by
tripling the amount of rounds you'll get the same waiting time as in 2.06, but
the protection against dictionary and guessing attacks is tripled).
Added recycle bin (enabled by default, it can be disabled in the database
settings dialog).
Added Salsa20 stream cipher for CryptoRandomStream (this algorithm is not only
more secure than ArcFour, but also achieves a higher performance;
CryptoRandomStream defaults to Salsa20 now; port developers: KeePass uses
Salsa20 for the inner random stream in KDBX files).
KeePass is now storing file paths (last used file, MRU list) in relative form
in the configuration file.
Added support for importing 1Password Pro CSV files.
Added support for importing KeePass 1.x XML files.
Windows XP and higher: added support for double-buffering in all list views
(including entry lists).
Windows Vista and higher: added support for alpha-blended marquee selection in
all list views (including entry lists).
Added 'EditEntry', 'DeleteEntry', 'AddEntries' and 'DeleteAllEntries' commands
in KPScript scripting tool.
Added support for importing special ICO files.
Added option to exit instead of locking the workspace after the specified time
of inactivity.
Added option to minimize the main window after locking the KeePass workspace.
Added option to minimize the main window after opening a database.
Added support for exporting to KDBX files.
Added command to remove deleted objects information.
TrlUtil now checks for duplicate accelerator keys in dialogs.
Added controls in the entry editing dialog to specify a custom text foreground
color for entries.
KeePass now retrieves the default auto-type sequence from parent groups when
adding new entries.
The password character picking dialog can now be invoked multiple times when
auto-typing (use {PICKPASSWORDCHARS}, {PICKPASSWORDCHARS2},
{PICKPASSWORDCHARS3}, etc.).
Added '-set-urloverride', '-clear-urloverride' and '-get-urloverride' command
line options.
Added '-set-translation' command line option.
Added option to print custom string fields in details mode.
Various entry listings now support custom foreground and background colors for
entry items.
Added 'click through' behavior for menus and toolbars.
File association methods are now UAC aware.

OK button is now reenabled after manually activating the key file checkbox and
