You Can Finally Download Games While Playing on Steam

Valve has released yet another beta version of its Steam client, with a large number of changes and new features.

The company usually pushes a few Beta updates before upgrading the stable branch of Steam, and now it's time for another Beta version to be released.

According to the developers, the ability to limit what time of the day Steam is allowed to automatically update apps has been added, an option to let other games download while a game is running has been added, and the “Copy all text to clipboard” context menu option has been implemented in the System Information dialog.

Also, the Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V in the client-hosted web page text controls is now working, and the incorrect foregrounding of a blank window in some -silent startup cases has been fixed.

Check the official announcement for more details about this release. You can also download the Steam installer from Softpedia if you don't have the client.
