47 ROX-Filer was created by Thomas Leonard, but many people have contributed to
48 it one way or another...
50 If you think you should be included here then write and tell me ;-)
52 First, a few people/projects whose work I've used:
54 Andrew Clover most of the file icons
55 David MacKenzie the code for parsing Permissions commands
56 John Lindal co-author of the XDS protocol
57 Midnight Commander the Virtual File System library & pinboard bits
58 GNOME Desktop some of the icons (including the toolbar)
60 A huge number of people have submitted code, suggestions and encouragement -
61 many of them are listed in the `Changes' file... thanks!
