Version 8.4 allows you to define Collections of your existing decks. This is another level of organisation than is offered by the directory structure on your computer, because decks in a collection can be in any subfolder in your deck collection.
There are many potential uses of collections, two of which have been programmed so far:
1) You can load up a collection into the Compare Cards form, so if you create a collection of decks with a similar theme it is always easy to see them side by side.
2) You can load up a collection into a "tour". How this works is that the decks in your collection replace the history of browsed decks in your current session. As you click the back arrow on the current deck, you move through the decks in your collection. I have also added the Alt+Left and Alt+Right keyboard shortcuts to make this process easier.
You will find a "My Collections" menu item on the main menu, and a Collections Wizard where you would expect it at the foot of that menu.

Re: 8.4 Beta - Collections
Very kewl! Is there any way to have this built from the deck information? So when your adding a deck you could tell it what collection(s) to add it to?
