2 A RISC OS-like filer for X
7 Work on the action box, including a progress bar (Stephen Watson).
11 Added PinboardRemove() SOAP call (Stephen Watson).
13 20-Oct-2004 (Release 2.1.4)
15 Added Portuguese translation (Rodrigo Cesar Herefeld).
19 Some improvements to saved display settings (Takuo Yonezawa and Stephen
21 Updated Spanish translation (Marcelo Ramos).
25 Allow multiple arguments for executable pinboard and panel icons (Thomas
27 Updated it.po and Manual-it (Yuri Bongiorno).
32 Use a higher quality setting when scaling the backdrop image (Ken Hayber).
36 Added PanelRemove() SOAP call (Sabin Iacob).
37 Bugfix: Mounting a directory that was accessed through a symlinked directory
38 used the symbolic path, confusing the mount command (Thomas Leonard;
39 reported by Anthony DiSante).
43 Force panel to not take focus when using GTK 2.4 (Thomas Leonard).
47 Minimum width of toolbar now an option (requested by Matthew Weier O'Phinney).
51 Only examine items that are actually displayed, not all items in a directory.
52 Saves checking hidden files, which typically speeds up opening the home
53 directory. Removed an unnecessary extra scan when opening a directory
54 with the default filter setting. Removed the double scan when clicking Refresh
55 and two windows show the same directory (Thomas Leonard).
59 Added option to make panels have the type _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DOCK (Tony
60 Houghton). Metacity needs this.
64 If we can't guess a file's type from its name or extended attribute, try
65 looking at its contents too, if we have gnomevfs 2.8.0 or later available
70 Panel and pinboard icons can now have a single argument set for them.
71 If you need more than one argument, consider creating a wrapper
76 Added --massif option for profiling memory usage (Thomas Leonard).
77 Warn about missing libsm in configure.in (reported by fedewico).
81 When resizing a window, only warp the pointer as much as necessary to keep
82 it inside the window (Thomas Leonard).
86 Ensure that a panel applet's properties are set before starting the applet
87 (reported by Tony Houghton).
91 Fixed panel menu positioning for multiple monitors with different resolutions
93 Use _NET_WM_STATE_BELOW to raise and lower the panel (Tony Houghton). Not
94 changing to type DOCK yet as it breaks some WMs.
98 Use new GTK 2.2 functions to set window hints now that we don't support 2.0
99 anymore (Guido Schimmels).
103 Plug a memory leak when loading SVG type icons (Stephen Watson).
107 Fix for the Solaris extended attribute support (Stephen Watson).
111 Set minimum width of toolbar so that all buttons are visible (Stephen Watson).
115 When adding an entry to the Recently Visited menu, remove its parent directory.
116 This stops the list filling up with near-duplicates when you have deeply
117 nested directories (Thomas Leonard).
121 Updated French manual translation (Arnaud Calvo).
125 For debugging, show the failed URI when dragging to the pinboard (Thomas
130 Use Help icon instead of Info icon for popup help buttons (Thomas Leonard).
134 Updated French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).
136 01-Aug-2004 (Release 2.1.3)
138 Build in ROX-Filer/build, not ~/build/ROX-Filer.
142 Renamed Cancel to Close in the Properties box (suggested by Arnaud Calvo).
143 Updated some calls to use newer APIs, and allow compilation on systems where
144 deprecated widgets are disabled by default (reported by Vincent Lefèvre and
146 Bugfix: Panel icons were no longer shown highlighted when selected.
150 Bugfix: When opening a new directory with saved settings, the filer would
151 print a warning and then crash.
155 Changed email address given as the one to send bugs to when using
156 --help to the rox-devel list (Stephen Watson).
157 Thumbnail generation now handles files with UTF-8 characters (Anatoly

166 Proper check for the stat[v]fs headers (Stephen Watson, reported by
171 Added firefox to list of default browsers (suggested by eugene).
175 Added Romanian translation (Cosma Florin).
179 Can now set "Brief" option on the Copy and Move action windows (Stephen
181 Properties window handles mount points specially when calculating their size
186 Bugfix: On Linux, the filer called setxattr instead of getxattr, thus
187 preventing setting filetypes with extended attributes from working.
188 Bugfix: Copy and Move now obey the "Brief" option (Stephen Watson, reported
193 Bugfix: On multi-monitor setups, filer windows always opened on the top/left
194 monitor (reported by Kacper Wysocki). Now they open on the monitor
199 Icons of minimized windows remember their positions on the pinboard (Stephen
201 Filer now officially requires GTK 2.2.0 or later (wasn't working with 2.0
202 anyway, and noone had complained).
203 Bugfix: A race in the code for updating iconified window titles could cause
204 the filer to crash with a BadWindow error.
208 Another Properties window fix: if there is no output from the du command
209 then put a message indicating an error (Stephen Watson).
210 Can now compile without Xinerama support on GTK+ < 2.2.0 (Tony Houghton).
214 Let the panel autoscroll during a drag (Stephen Watson).
218 Fix another bug when closing Properties window before it has finished
219 scanning the directory (Stephen Watson).
223 Improved Xinerama support: now works for tooltips and action windows; filer
224 windows are no longer prone to leaving their borders overlapping; panel uses
225 _NET_WM_STRUT_PARTIAL so it only affects the monitor it's on (Tony Houghton).
229 Make ignoring executable files with known extensions the default setting
230 (suggested by Daniel Poersch). Freedesktop.org is discussing a plan to mark
231 individual MIME types as executable, which may be a better long-term
233 Option to prevent maximising windows from covering the panels (requested
234 by Simon Templer and others).
238 Type specific Send To entries now shown for multiple files when they
239 are all of the same type (Stephen Watson).
240 Can now drag icons to the very end of the panel (Stephen Watson).
244 Another place to look for apsymbols.h (Stephen Watson).
248 More fixes for the new build system (Stephen Watson).
252 Fix portability of new build system and ensure configure can find the
253 version number again (Stephen Watson).
257 Build object files in ~/build/ROX-Filer, in case source directory is read-only.
258 This also reduces the risk of distributing the object files by accident.
262 Don't allow toolbar buttons to focus (needed for GTK 2.4).
266 Fix loss of bookmark name when re-ordering (Rahsheen Porter).
267 Removed installation of thumbnail handlers via the Set Icon dialog. It was
268 never documented and all the thumbnailers use the mime_handler installation
269 anyway (Stephen Watson).
273 Updated French manual translation (Arnaud Calvo).
277 Updated Dutch translation (Jan Wagemakers).
281 Updated French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).
283 30-Apr-2004 (Release 2.1.2)
285 Removed toolbar hint type from panel. It caused too many problems.
289 Added 'Download handler' to drag and drop options. This program is invoked
290 when a URI is dragged to the filer (eg, from a web-browser). The default
291 command runs wget to download the file (Andrew Flegg).
295 Bugfix: URIs received through drag-and-drop were unescaped twice, causing
296 problems with names containing the '%' character (spotted by Jonatan
301 Cope with spaces in ROX-Filer's path.
302 Added a load of default keys, since many GTK setups now make it almost
303 impossible to change shortcuts.
304 Added --leaks option to run ROX-Filer through valgrind with the memory
305 leak option checking on (Stephen Watson).
309 Added Xinerama support (Tony Houghton).
310 Set window type hint = toolbar for panel to prevent it appearing in pagers etc
315 Added method of saving display settings for directories. Mostly working,
316 but bugs remain related to size and position (Stephen Watson).
317 Updated Spanish translation (Marcelo Ramos).
321 Load extended attribute functions dynamically. This should mean that compiling
322 ROX-Filer with a new glibc won't make it stop working with older versions due
323 to the functions being missing.
327 Use * as a synonym for unfiltered (Stephen Watson).
331 Bookmarks can be given titles (Stephen Watson).
335 Fix memory leak in thumbnails code (Stephen Watson).
339 Fixed bug in details mode for showing hidden files (Stephen Watson).
343 Don't display an error box when installing the ROX icon theme. It just
344 worries people for no reason.
348 Updated Chinese translation (Babyfai Cheung).
352 Option to make the File menu appear directly when the menu is opened with
353 files selected (Peter Geer).
357 Added an arrow to the comparison area of the action box so you can see
358 which file overwrites the other (Stephen Watson).
362 Sort by user/group now uses the name, not the number (Stephen Watson).
366 Added 'Select by Name'.
370 Cope with XRandR screen resizing (Geoff Youngs and Tom Morton).
374 Can now filter files by name, using normal shell (glob) patterns (Stephen
379 Updated it.po and Manual-it (Yuri Bongiorno).
383 Updated French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).
385 24-Jan-2004 (Release 2.1.1)

396 Misc changes for next release.
400 Accept Mozilla's alternative to the standard text/uri-list target during
401 drag-and-drop (Andrew Flegg).
405 Bugfix: Icon shortcuts with out modifier keys didn't work if NumLock,
406 CapsLock, etc were turned on (reported by Peter Geer).
407 Bugfix: Handle case when the output of uname -m contains spaces (Stephen
408 Watson, reported on #rox).
412 Renamed some functions stolen from Gtk to avoid possible conflicts with
413 the Gtk-2.3 series (reported by Stu Tissimus).
417 Make the Ctrl-button-3 menu pointer appear at the same place regardless
418 of the number of custom entries (Stephen Watson).
422 Make Ctrl-button-3 open the menu slightly higher, so Delete isn't under the
423 pointer (suggested by Ryan Pavlik).
427 Allow non image/* thumbnails in details mode. Label next to the combo
428 in the Set Type action dialog is now "Type" and not "Command" (Stephen
433 Work out which include file we need for getxattr (Stephen Watson).
437 Allow editing a symlink's target from the Properties box (suggested by Arnaud
439 Experimental extended attributes support for setting MIME types (Stephen

448 Added 'Specify the prefix' install option (Ryan Pavlik).
449 Updated Russian translation (Vladimir Popov).
453 Bugfix: Cancelling the info window with a du process still running could
454 crash the filer (reported by Peter Geer).
458 Renamed 'Info' menu item to 'Properties'.
462 If a panel icon has an empty label, show it full size (requested by Stephen
467 Use apsymbols.h (from autopackage.org) if possible for binary compatibility
468 with older glibc versions. Use g_ascii_* functions instead of the ctypes ones
470 Bugfix: Files with '&' in their names couldn't be saved in groups (reported
471 by Nils-Erik Svangård).
475 Updated Dutch translation (Jan Wagemakers).
476 Resizing by double clicking on background now optional (Stephen Watson).
480 Added optional top and bottom margines for iconized window placement
485 Don't lower the panel due when the pointer 'leaves' due to a grab (eg, clicking
486 or opening a menu). This also prevents a flickering problem with Openbox 3.
490 Bugfix: FreeBSD reported file sizes with units of 'null' due to large file
491 support not being detected (igla).
495 Larger default size for bookmarks editor (requested by Matthew Weier OPhinney).
499 Let the thumbnail helpers be app dirs, plus can be set from the Set Icon
500 dialog (Stephen Watson).

508 Updated French manual translation (Arnaud Calvo).
509 Updated German translation (Guido Schimmels).
510 Offer Eject even for unmounted disks (reported by Matthew Weier O'Phinney).

516 Updated French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).
517 Removed some dead code, memory leaks, etc that had crept in.

556 Implementation of Format, just as a user-defined command. Also mount
557 point menu items reflect mounted/not mounted status (Stephen Watson).
561 Implementation of Free Space (Stephen Watson). OpenDir SOAP message now
562 takes an optional Window element. Pass the same Window to re-use the window.
566 Allow ejecting mounted media.
570 Don't create a corrupted pinboard/panel file if a non-UTF8 pathname is
571 dragged to it (reported by Eugeni Andreechtchev).
572 Get file icons using freedesktop.org icon theme system.
576 Added Czech translation (Jan Provaznik).
580 Help, Format, Eject and Free Space now appear in the AppMenu section of the
581 menu. Help is only shown for applications, and the others only for mount
586 Added ability to call external programs to generate thumbnails for types
587 other than image/* (Stephen Watson).
591 If a string can't be converted from the local character set to UTF-8,
592 fallback to converting from iso-8859-1.

597 Bugfix: Didn't use XDG_DATA_DIRS to find type descriptions.
601 Updated French manual translation (Arnaud Calvo).
605 Allow types other than image/* to have thumbnails, although we can't
606 generate them yet (Stephen Watson).
607 Added Eject menu option for unmounted mount points (Stephen Watson).
611 Doing a Refresh in a directory under /uri/0install triggers a remote refresh.
615 Less frame-heavy look for info box (Thomas Leonard).
616 When mounting, force a refresh even if the mtime of the new disk is the same,
617 since some formats don't change it. Also, if mounting gives an error, check to
618 see if it worked anyway (Thomas Leonard).
622 Added sort and selection buttons to the toolbar. They start off disabled,
623 enable them from Options->Tools if you want them (Stephen Watson).

629 Don't show hidden files on the SendTo menu (reported by Arnaud Calvo).

647 (reported by Arnaud Calvo).
651 Sort items on the SendTo menu (requested by John Pettigrew).
655 Removed the menu-on-button-2 option. It was too inconsistant with everything
656 else, including panel applets and window managers, to be useful. Edit bind.c if
661 Button-2 drags on panel applets always work now, even if the applet doesn't
662 forward them explicitly.
666 Fix scrolling problem with GTK+-2.2.2 (reported by Alastair Porter, with
667 help from Götz Waschk).

753 Also install man pages under 'share/man'.
757 Close stdout when running child processes for users running startx from the
758 console, since some terminal applications try to read from the console,

760 Forward scroll events on pinboard to window manager, and add option to
761 workaround *box issues (Matthew Weier O'Phinney).

899 Bugfix: Using a SOAP call to open a non-existant directory made the filer
901 Bugfix: Drag-and-drop raising on the panel didn't quite work (Daniele Peri).

926 option (reported by Laurent Moussault).
927 Allow changing the pinboard style without having to drag the image back in
928 (requested by Jesse Wagner).
929 Remove button style from iconified windows. Use a semi-transparent border
930 instead. The actual effect is flexible; perhaps someone with artistic
931 talent can do something better?
932 Double-buffer small pinboard updates.
933 Updated Spanish translation (Marcelo Ramos).
937 Option to turn off column headings in List View (Adam Sampson).
938 Panel auto-raising also works during drag-and-drop.

966 title bar, and only report it once in an error box.

1737 than the old Choices/MIME-info directories.

2102 When creating thumbnails, create to a temporary file and rename in case another

2105 installing without an X server (requested by Michael Duelli).
2109 Converter for old-format config files now stops if the file looks like
2110 XML (probably from a failed conversion).

2310 Thumbnails are now stored using an md5 hash of their names.
2311 Pinboard icons can be repositioned by dragging with the left mouse button
2312 (middle button drag stopped working with sawfish, and this is easier anyway).
2316 New scanning system: blank items are added to the window first and then the
2317 icons and types get filled in later. Looks better and simplifies the sizing
2319 Code tidying in various places.
2323 Bugfix: Filer would quit if only Info boxes were open.
2324 Bugfix: Pinboard and panel windows didn't get the correct hints set under

2354 it was in the displayed area before.

2366 Kristian A. Rink and others).

2369 selection (Andras Mohari).

2381 Added a new root window property (_ROX_FILER_EUID_HOST) which points to

2391 Moved 'Select All', 'Clear Selection' and 'Select If...' to a new 'Select'

2448 width or height of zero (Andras Mohari).

2453 retrieved by pressing [0-9] (suggested by Jakub Turski). The groups are not

2460 In action windows, the a long filename no longer makes the window get wider
2461 (requested by Graham Borland).
2462 Added 'Types' section to the Options window, allowing easy(ish) access
2463 to the MIME-info files, plus a reload button, and icons for MIME-types can

2469 used for icons (Francesco Bochicchio).

2471 Bugfix: 'New Directory' didn't correctly select the leafname with Gtk+-2.0.
2475 Added Spanish translation (Marcelo Ramos).
2476 Applied Bernard Jungen's latest patch:
2477 - Disk usage forgot to count special files like pipes, etc.
2478 - Page up/down scrolls a window full at a time instead of 10 items.
2479 - Don't get icons from the cache if thumbnail mode is off anymore.
2480 - modechange.c: deleted useless stuff and fixed octal parsing to detect
2481 *all* illegal values (eg 010000000000000).
2482 - Added 'Show/hide hidden files' toolbar button.
2483 - Lots of code tidying.

2517 option to access it directly.
2521 Open new windows at the mouse position (suggested by Helgi Hrafn Gunnarsson).
2522 Bugfix: If file doesn't accept the '-b' option then examining a file in
2523 the root directory didn't work (Stephen Watson).
2527 Use --version instead of 'which' to test for programs as not everyone has
2528 which (suggested by Vincent Lefevre).
2529 Bugfix: When setting an icon for a file with a space in the name, the
2530 setting wasn't saved correctly (spotted by Arnaud Calvo and Jakub
2531 Turski). The 'globicons' file should be converted automatically
2532 when the filer is run.
2536 Added support for the regex field in MIME-info. This allows files to be
2537 matched with patterns, not just on their extensions. For example, '.gtkrc'
2538 is now typed 'x-gtkrc' despite having no extension (Stephen Watson and
2543 Allow AppIcon.xpm and .DirIcon.png to be symlinks (Bernard Jungen).

2575 selection caused a crash (Fabien Coutant).
2579 Colour files by type (Andras Mohari).
2583 Added -p to mkdir in install scripts to create any missing parent
2584 directories (Michel Alexandre Salim).

2589 of possible actions (Taras).

2634 The 'src/po/dist' script now converts all text to UTF-8.
2638 Fixed some problems with the configure.in script and autoconf 2.50 (Richard
2643 Updated Dutch translation (Jasper Huijsmans).
2644 Send To menu lists contents of all Send To directories in Choices, not just
2645 the first one found.
2646 Fixed another XML compiling problem (Stephen Watson).
2650 Added Customise to `Send To' menu.
2654 Detached Send To menu from main menu structure. Allows key-binding to open

2656 Shift+Menu brings up the menu directly.
2660 Fixed compiling problem with some versions of libxml (Stephen Watson).
2661 Changed a text message in the Options box (about binding keys to menus) into
2662 a button which shows the message in an alert box. Maybe people will read the

2711 (requested by Andreas Dehmel).
2715 When using the Set Run Action box, make the command default to the currently
2716 set command (suggested by Arnaud Calvo).
2718 12-Jul-2001 (Release 1.1.6)
2720 Updated the French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).
2724 Renamed 'New File' submenu to 'New' and moved 'New Directory' into it.
2728 Use the user's preferred font for item filenames, not the Gtk default

2737 Don't show tooltips for applets as it causes problems (reported by Stephen

2763 of '<Choices>/Templates' (Stephen Watson).

2769 submenu (suggested by André Wyrwa).
2773 Updated French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).
2774 Added a German translation (André Wyrwa).
2778 Added an extra option to control the resizing behaviour. Can be set to resize

2781 07-Jun-2001 (Release 1.1.5)
2783 Updated Russian translation (Dmitry Elfimov).
2787 Unless compiling with mc's libvfs for virtual filesystem support, change the
2788 menu structure for use with the newer AVFS system.
2789 (http://www.inf.bme.hu/~mszeredi/avfs/) (José Romildo Malaquias).

2826 icons, or just applications (suggested by José Romildo Malaquias).

2834 Pressing the mouse button down on an icon no longer winks it; only releasing
2835 the button to run it does.
2836 Added 'Show Info' to panel/pinboard menu.
2837 The File Info box grabs the primary selection when a row is selected
2838 (allows you to paste email addresses, URLs, etc).
2842 Opening a pinboard or panel menu over an icon no longer selects it -- this
2843 allows the selection to be passed to an application run using its AppMenu
2844 (requested by Christopher Arndt).
2848 In Large Icons display style, a file's name may wrap onto a second line.
2852 Merged code for handling selections and menus that was common to pinboards

2879 Pinboards and panels should now work with IceWM without needing -o
2880 (Christopher Arndt).
2881 Allow text messages in the toolbar to go off the side (instead of resizing the
2886 Opening the shell minibuffer with a selection adds ' "$@' after the cursor.
2887 Without a selection, the name of the file under the cursor is added.
2891 Pressing the `\' key opens the menu (suggested by Christopher Arndt). Hold
2892 down Ctrl for the File submenu.

2897 into the info box. Added a 'Refresh' button to the info box.
2898 Added a ROX-Filer/Styles file for default colours (default filer background

2913 displayed in a tooltip if the mouse is held over the item in a filer

2941 Fixed a couple of errors in the man-page (spotted by Damien Couderc).

2950 the `Set Icon...' settings didn't work (reported by Damien
2955 New display style 'Huge Icons' to make viewing thumbnails easier.
2956 Added a Hungarian translation (Andras Mohari).

2964 held over the item (Denis Manente).
2966 30-Mar-2001 (Release 1.1.2)
2968 Asking for help on a directory always tries to open <dir>/Help first, even
2969 for non-applications.
2973 If run without -n, the filer will put itself in the background. Thus,
2974 the 'rox' command behaves the same whether or not the filer is already
2979 Support for the new version of libxml (reported by Andreas Dehmel).
2983 Rewrote parser for options. Smaller and neater (hopefully this will fix
2984 the bugs reported by Andreas Dehmel and Ewan Mac Mahon).
2986 Bugfix: While scanning, the resizer could make the window too large.
2990 Moving the cursor down in the next-to-last row will move to the last
2991 item if there is nothing under the cursor (suggested by Graham Borland).
2995 When changing directory, only make the window larger (if needed), never
2996 smaller (suggested by Diego Zamboni).
3000 Changing directory autosizes the window automatically (Denis Manente).
3001 Internal changes to the way different layouts are handled.
3005 Pressing space (to select/unselect an item) now also moves the cursor to
3006 the next item (suggested by Anders Lundmark).
3008 Copying directories tries to preserve the timestamps, like it does for
3009 files (suggested by José Romildo Malaquias).
3013 Added '--mime-type FILE' option, which simply writes the type of FILE to
3014 standard output (Stephen Watson).
3016 Added 'Home Directory' to Window menu (requested by Graham Borland).
3020 Copying a directory which doesn't have user write permission will give it
3021 user write during the copy to avoid permission denied errors (suggested by
3024 New sort option - 'Directories always come first' (requested by Liav Asseraf).
3028 Dragging a lasso box with the middle button toggles the selected state
3029 of the items enclosed (Denis Manente).
3033 Changing the display style now resizes the window (Denis Manente).
3037 New pinboards get a 'Home' icon in the top left corner as new users often
3038 think the pinboard isn't working because it starts empty (suggested by
3041 Converted AppMenu file format to XML.
3042 Added AppMenu file with options to control the pinboard.
3046 Highlight invalid Find expressions in red (Anders Lundmark).
3050 When resizing windows, try to keep the window fully inside the screen area
3055 Updated the Dutch translation (Jan Wagemakers).
3059 When mounting a device, the new window appears after mounting, not before.
3060 This means that it's more likely to get sized correctly (requested by
3065 Added two new options to control when minibuffer completion beeps (requested
3070 Added 'New File...' feature (James Kermode).
3074 Dropping icons on the pinboard positions them sensibly (Diego Zamboni).
3076 09-Feb-2001 (Release 1.1.1)
3078 Moving pinboard icons is nicer - it no longer assumes you dragged the middle
3079 of the text... (Diego Zamboni).
3081 Added a Polish translation (Andrzej Borsuk).
3083 Bugfix: Sometimes it wasn't possible to delete something that was on a
3084 pinboard or panel, even after confirming (reported by Diego Zamboni).
3088 Sliders in the options box can have a numerical value display (Diego Zamboni).
3089 Fixed a stray warning message displayed when non-default pinboard options
3090 were used (Diego Zamboni).
3092 New menu item 'Set Icon...' allows you to choose any icon for any file or
3093 directory. Also allow .DirIcon.png to set a directory's icon (Diego Zamboni).
3097 Many internal changes to the Options system.
3101 Bugfix: On filesystems which aren't case sensitive (eg DOS) it was possible
3102 to copy 'tmp' as 'Tmp' and lose it! (reported by Denis Manente)
3106 Added Diego Zamboni's patch to make configuring VFS easier.
3110 Improved compiling - now correctly reports an error if the file doesn't
3111 compile. If configure is missing then autoconf is run automatically.
3113 After a Find completes, you are given the option of doing the search again
3116 Applications can define a list of menu items to display on their menus
3117 (Diego Zamboni). The file should be called 'AppMenu' and contains a list of
3118 lines in the form 'option Text'.
3122 Added two new pinboard options - one to allow setting the grid step size
3123 and one to allow icons to go slightly off the side of the screen (Diego
3128 Bugfix: Textured window backgrounds could cause a crash (reported by Diego
3133 Updated the French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).
3135 Bugfix: The pixbuf stuff didn't work on some displays (reported by Stephen
3138 20-Jan-2001 (Release 1.1.0)
3140 Removed the 'Initial window height' option. The filer tries to pick a
3141 sensible shape itself now.
3143 Bugfix: If an image was moved to a directory which didn't generate thumbs
3144 then it would display, but never be updated. Even if it wasn't that
3145 file at all, just a reused inode!
3146 Bugfix: Changing the display style didn't always redraw the display.
3147 Bugfix: In 'Small, With...' display mode, clicking beyond the far right
3148 column acted like clicking on the far-right column.
3152 Changed background colour to be more compatible with the Gtk themes system.
3156 Removed all the message window stuff. ROX-Filer no longer grabs standard
3157 error from its child processes. Changed because ROX-Session now does a much
3162 Filer is more generous in what hostnames it considers local.
3163 Patch to include pixbuf headers correctly (Diego Zamboni).
3167 Bug fix: Didn't always use the fully qualified host name for DnD.
3171 If a file has a known extension then it is given the appropriate type even
3172 if the file is executable (Simon Britnell).
3176 Added a menu entry 'Resize Window' to set the window to a sensible size
3181 Try to open new windows at a sensible size for their contents (Denis Manente).
3185 Bugfix: When mounting or unmounting subdirectories of '/', the mount symbol
3186 wasn't updated (reported by Wilbert Berendsen).
3190 Fixed a couple of memory leaks in the choices system (Diego Zamboni).
3191 Updated French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).
3192 Added new 'Create Thumbs' entry on the Display menu which tries to load
3193 every file in the directory as an image and use that image for the file
3194 (suggested by Sprague and Simon Britnell).
3198 Converted to use gdk-pixbuf instead of ImLib.
3199 Fixed a few compiler warnings and improved the error message displayed
3200 if you try to invoke rox on a missing file (reported by Vincent Lefèvre).
3201 Changed the -w, -W and -i flags to the simpler -x=FILE, which reexamines the
3202 given file, updating directory views and icons as needed.
3206 AppIcon.xpm must be a regular file (stops people trying to crash the
3207 filer by symlinking to /dev/...).
3208 Fixed a missing translation in the pinboard options (Denis Manente).
3212 Attempting to run the filer before compiling will now ask if you want
3214 Removed lots of platform-specific mount point code and replaced it with
3215 python's portable system.
3216 New options section allows you to choose a translation without having to
3217 set the LANG variable.
3221 Added '-w', '-i' and '-W' command line options for forcing icons or
3222 directories to be rescanned (Diego Zamboni).
3224 13-Dec-2000 (Release 1.0.0)
3226 Made a few updates to the manual.
3230 Fixes to make compiling easier on Solaris (Diego Zamboni). Also, after showing
3231 a pinboard icon, tries to send it to the back (might help with some WMs).
3233 04-Dec-2000 (Release 0.1.30)
3235 When a panel is used for the first time, put the user's home directory and
3236 the directory containing ROX-Filer on it instead of leaving it blank.
3240 Patch to make compiling easier under FreeBSD (Jimmy Olgeni).
3241 Added a #include for OSF1 (Vincent Lefevre).
3245 Bugfix: On many systems, the filer would fail to remove zombie processes
3246 due to a typo (spotted by Philip Hazel and tracked down by Stephen
3251 Bugfix: Removing an item from the panel now resizes the panel (reported
3252 by Wilbert Berendsen).
3253 Bugfix: Editing an icon's path failed to update its hash entry.
3257 If a case-sensitve match for an extension can't be found then try a
3258 case-insensitive match - so .BMP and similar work (Denis Manente).
3262 A few changes to remove some compiler warnings (reported by Vincent Lefevre).
3263 Added a VFS menu entry for .deb files (Vincent Ledda).
3267 Mounting or unmounting a directory forces mtab to be reread, even if the
3268 timestamp hasn't changed (problem reported by Wilbert Berendsen).
3270 When the 'Unique windows' option is on, remove the old window AFTER creating
3271 the new one, so that the filer doesn't quit because there are zero windows
3272 open... (Denis Manente).
3276 Updated the Dutch translation (Jan Wagemakers).
3280 Updated the French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).
3282 Using --version and --help options no longer requires an X server connection,
3283 the man-pages are more standard, and 'man ROX-Filer' is allowed as well as
3284 'man rox' (Bernard Jungen).
3286 Bugfix: A corrupted AppIcon.xpm could crash the filer.
3288 24-Oct-2000 (Release 0.1.29)
3290 Code tidying: Replaced an XLib call with a gdk one (Denis Manente) and amended
3291 the makedist script to remove the .cvsignore files (spotted by Andy
3296 Improved the install script so that it installs the man-page. Also made it
3297 easier to use. Updated the French translation and fixed a couple of
3298 typos (Vincent Lefèvre).
3302 Gtk+ doesn't always scroll entry widgets to show the selection - apply a
3303 workaround (Denis Manente) - this improves the Copy/Rename/etc boxes.
3307 Added a Dutch translation (Jan Wagemakers).
3311 Added an Italian translation (Denis Manente).
3315 Bugfix: If AppRun was a symlink, then the owner of the file was checked, not
3316 the owner of the symlink. Slight security risk, and also prevented
3317 users symlinking AppRun to their binaries...
3321 Bugfix: Deleting a pinboard icon while it was highlighted caused a crash.
3322 This means it is now possible to click on a pinboard icon to change
3323 between pinboards...
3325 Bugfix: Textured window backgrounds didn't redraw correctly when scrolled
3326 or resized. Now flickers when resizing if there's a textured
3327 background - seems to be necessary :-(
3331 Running as root now simply turns on the -u flag, rather than displaying
3334 The toolbar height is now correctly taken into account when sizing a new filer
3335 window (Denis Manente).
3337 When guessing file types from extensions, the filer now tries to find the
3338 longest extension that matches (eg .ps.gz, then .gz).
3342 The lasso box is now drawn so that the box will be in the foreground colour
3343 over the background, rather than by just inverting the pixel value and hoping
3344 it's visible (spotted by Philip Hazel).
3348 If the home directory is '/' then don't show it as '~' (suggested by
3351 Added '--show=FILE' option - this will be needed by other ROX
3352 applications, so it needs to be in version 1.0.0.
3354 Bugfix: -d option didn't use realpath before sending to an already-running
3359 The 'install.sh' script now uses 'printf' instead of 'echo -e' to suppress
3360 newlines (suggested by Bernard Jungen).
3362 Bugfix: Close tool was always disabled on startup (reported by Martin Ward).
3366 Added a man-page (Andy Piper).
3367 Changed `install.sh' from bash to sh (Bernard Jungen).
3369 18-Sep-2000 (Release 0.1.28)
3371 Bugfix: menu entries on the pinboard menu weren't being shaded and
3376 Changed 'Rename Item' to 'Edit Icon' and allowed changing the path that
3377 the icon points to as well as its name.
3379 All i?86 platforms are treated as being equivalent (so, if you compile
3380 on a 386 then it'll still run on a 486).
3384 Pinboard icons can also be renamed.
3385 Pinboard and panel icons can have '~' or '~/' at the start of their
3386 pathnames - this should make it easier to create a system-wide default
3387 panel or pinboard with icons relative to the user's home directory.
3391 Panel icons can now be renamed (suggested by Ewan Mac Mahon).
3395 Changing the toolbar options affects existing windows, not just new ones.
3396 Removed the 'Size Bars' display style and replaced it with 'Permissions',
3397 'Type' and 'Times' styles.
3401 With items that spread over their normal width because they're on the
3402 edge of the window, clicking on the extra bit now works.
3404 Added a size limit of 400K on application icons. This is to prevent
3405 someone trying to crash the filer by linking /tmp/MyApp/AppIcon.xpm
3408 Dragging an item with the middle button when none are selected unselects
3409 the item after the drag.
3411 Added 'Show Location' feature for pinboard and panels - opens a directory
3412 showing where the file really is.
3416 Allowed items in the far right column to spread right to the edge of the
3417 window. Fixed a bug which prevented Delete from working if there was
3422 Deleting items first checks if it will affect the pinboard or panel. A
3423 warning is displayed if so.
3425 Upgraded the query dialog (from ROX-Session) - looks nicer.
3429 'Unique filer windows' option now has no effect while the spring open
3430 feature is active (spotted by Andrew Booker). Also, when opening a new
3431 window, the old window is destroyed and a new one created (rather than
3432 reusing the old one). This ensures that the new window appears in the
3435 When a drag from the pinboard or a filer window ends, the selection is
3436 only cleared if the icon was selected by starting the drag. Thus, it now
3437 works like the panels.
3441 New Close toolbar button (requested by Martin Ward).
3442 Toolbar icons can be turned on and off from the Options box.
3443 Removed the 'Mount' menu entry, since 'Shift Open' does it too.
3444 Made the Shift Open menu text change depending on what is selected.
3445 Bugfix: dragging icons around no longer saved the new pinboard state!
3449 Running a second copy of the filer as another user will start a new copy
3450 instead of reusing the existing one. Added the '-u' option to display the
3451 name of the user running the filer in each window (also suppresses the
3452 normal don't-run-as-root warning).
3454 Added '-d', which opens a directory as a directory, even if it looks like
3459 Added Large and Small toolbar buttons. Right-clicking brings up a menu.
3463 Moved 'Set Run Action' to the file menu (suggested by Ewan Mac Mahon), and
3464 made using it bring up a dialog rather than a minibuffer. Hopefully it is now
3467 Added much improved icons for executables and for applications without icons
3468 of their own (Victor Liu See-le).
3470 Allow '/' on the pinboard and panel (text wasn't displayed - spotted by
3473 Bugfix: auto-scrolling didn't always stop when a drag ended.
3474 Bugfix: creating a panel with the same name as a file in the current
3475 directory caused an error due to a throwback from when panels were
3476 directories (spotted by Ewan Mac Mahon).
3478 30-Aug-2000 (Release 0.1.27)
3480 Increased the distance you have to move the pointer to start a drag
3481 slightly. Updated the manual.
3483 Panel icons can now be moved from one side to the other by simply moving
3484 over the gap in the middle. Previously, you had to jump over an icon on
3487 Left and right panels look better now. Also, they shrink if you add a top
3488 or bottom panel to make room.
3492 Dragging on the panel background allows you to slide the bar back and
3497 Fixed a slight bug with lasso boxes, which could cause them to be drawn in
3498 the wrong place. Install script no longer overwrites the default run
3499 actions; if the user has changed them leave them alone!
3500 (Martin Ward noted that symlinking to an executable would cause the
3501 executable to be destroyed on upgrade!)
3505 More improvements to the event handling. Seems to be working again at
3507 Made the toolbar buttons slightly larger, and added a textual display
3508 for 'Next Click' mode (eg 'Delete ... ?' when it's waiting for you to
3510 Moved the pinboard over to the new mouse binding code too.
3514 Started rewriting the event handling for filer windows to go through
3515 the new code in bind.c, like the panel handling does.
3519 You can now drag icons from the panel to other applications.
3523 Dragging panel icons with the middle button allows you to move them around.
3525 New option to set the default height for new filer windows (patch from
3530 Selecting panel icons now grabs the primary selection. Pasting pastes all
3531 selected file path names. Icons can now be added to either side of the panel.
3533 Bug fix: Moving a file didn't always update the source directory.
3537 Many improvements to the panel - drag and drop to icons, adding new icons,
3538 selections (doesn't grab the primary selection yet though), removing icons
3539 and automatically saving the panel when it's changed.
3543 Improved reference counting on images (hopefully!). Lots of work on
3544 rewriting the panel system.
3548 Made the timeout for the spring-open feature configurable (requested by
3551 Use short form of --version in install.sh and don't use unsetenv() if it
3552 isn't available (Mattias Engdegård).
3556 New options to set the pinboard text foreground and background colours
3557 (suggested by James Kermode).
3561 Your home directory is now displayed as '~' in the title bar, rather
3562 than as a full path.
3564 01-Aug-2000 (Release 0.1.26)
3566 Added a popup menu of commonly used chmod strings to the Permissions
3567 box. Bracketed text and spaces are now ignored in the commands.
3568 Bug fix: Only menu keys changed since the last load were saved!
3572 Bug fix: Mount points on the pinboard didn't always redraw when the
3573 mounted/unmounted state changed.
3577 Renaming now uses the action windows. This means that you can now
3578 rename something onto another filesystem.
3582 The menu key bindings are now only saved if they actually changed.
3584 Code tidying: Moved some typedefs to the new `global.h' file and
3585 thus removed the dependencies between header files :-)
3589 Tab and Shift-Tab move to next and previous selected item.
3593 The new display styles can now be saved as the defaults (bug spotted by
3596 When autoscrolling is used, prevent the last-highlighted directory
3597 from springing open. 'spring open' now defaults to off.
3599 The toolbar Up and Home buttons can act as drop targets (and spring open
3602 Options to set the pinboard text background style (suggested by James
3607 Added an option to control the spring-loading feature. Added tooltips
3608 to some of the options. Improved the rule for deciding whether to open
3609 a new window when you click on the toolbar buttons.
3611 Stopped the spring-open window moving while it's open (prevents a bug
3612 in GTK+ from causing problems). Please use GTK+ 1.2.8 or later now!
3614 Dragging near the edge of a window scrolls. Improved the lasso box drag
3615 to use the same system (so it scrolls without you having to move the
3620 Added 'spring-loaded' directories. If you drag a file over a directory and
3621 hold it there, the directory will spring open! (suggested by Barney
3626 In the path entry minibuffer, an exact match is favoured over any other
3627 match. So, if you enter '.xsession' and press Return you'll get it, not
3628 '.xsession-errors' or whatever!
3630 The filer now clears APP_DIR from the environment so that child processes
3631 don't get it. Fixed a bug which caused problems when using a small version
3632 of the 'missing image' image.
3636 Creating a new directory now makes sure the display is updated.
3638 18-Jul-2000 (Release 0.1.25)
3640 Prevent dragging from a pinboard selection to itself, or onto the desktop
3645 Clicking on the root window works (button-1 clears the selection,
3646 button-3 opens the pinboard menu). The pinboard can own the primary
3647 selection, which means that you can select something and then paste
3648 its name into another program.
3650 Keys bound to menu entries are automatically saved when the filer quits.
3654 Changed the install script so that the CVS directories don't get installed.
3656 The 'rox' script now just calls AppRun directly.
3657 Panels can be created without starting a new copy of the filer.
3658 The pinboard can be changed or removed by using --pinboard a second time.
3660 Files can be given as arguments - they are opened as if they were clicked
3661 on in a filer window (suggested by Alex Holden). If no arguments are
3662 given then the default is now the current directory (not your home
3665 If you start the leafname in the path minibuffer with '.' then the Show
3666 Hidden feature is temporarily turned on.
3670 Ctrl-clicking selects and unselects pinboard icons. Menu clicking
3671 selects the icon clicked on while the menu is open. Pinned icons are
3672 now updated when the pointer moves over them, if necessary.
3676 Menu-clicking on a pinboard icon now brings up a menu.
3677 Clicks on the root window are still ignored though; need to support
3678 the GNOME-compliant window manager system for passing root clicks on...
3682 Files can now be dragged to pinboard icons, and they highlight nicely too!
3683 If the --override option is used, the filer will bypass the window manager
3684 and position the icons directly.
3688 Pinboard icons can now be dragged to filer windows or applications, just
3693 Changed the DnD code to make it easier for the pinboard code to use it.
3694 Up and Home buttons on the toolbar now use the 'New window on button 1'
3695 option setting (suggested by Vincent Lefèvre).
3699 Pinboard can have mount points and symlinks on it.
3703 Dragging with the Menu button moves icons around. Clicking with the
3704 other button removes icons from the pinboard.
3708 Dragging files to the pinboard adds them to it and automatically saves
3713 Pinboard is now loaded from a file specified on the command line.
3717 'Home' now appears on the background if you run it with --pinboard.
3718 Clicking opens your home directory. Doesn't do much else.
3719 Fixed a bug which prevented the minibuffer label from appearing on
3720 some versions of GTK+.
3724 First steps towards pinboard support (requested by P.S.S.Camp and
3729 Changed the Display menu layout - now there are four basic types (Large or
3730 Small, with or without details) and the type of detail desired is chosen
3731 from a sub-sub-menu.
3733 Added a new display style - bars showing the sizes of the files. The bars are
3734 drawn on a log scale.
3738 Changed the display menu - you can now choose large or small icons, with or
3739 without details. The details displayed can also be changed. I'm not quite
3740 happy with the UI yet though...
3742 Split the filer.c source file into two (filer.c and display.c) since it was
3743 becoming rather unwieldy. This means that some of the option names have
3744 changed because they've moved to a new section in the options window...
3748 Fixed a problem where ImLib support failed on multi-depth displays (reported
3749 by Stephen Harrison).
3751 06-Jun-2000 (Release 0.1.24)
3753 Added the install.sh script for easier installation.
3754 Removed 'MIME-info' file from ROX-Filer - now we always assume that the
3755 standard types are in Choices.
3756 Fixed a bug which could cause 'top' panels to appear in the wrong place
3758 Changed the sort order for Sort By Type so that directories come before
3759 files (suggested by Chris Garrett).
3760 `Single-click navigation' and 'Ignore case when sorting' now both default
3765 Improved the theme support to allow tiled background images.
3766 Fixed a bug which prevented tilde expansion from working in the
3767 shell command minibuffer.
3771 Made the help button look a bit nicer and changed the Find and Permissions
3772 action windows to use the icon instead of a text button.
3773 Removed the 3D borders from the help and toolbar buttons when not selected
3774 (looks much better!). Setting a run action by dragging to a symlink now
3775 dereferences the link (suggested by Ewan Mac Mahon).
3777 Default search path for Choices is now:
3778 ~/Choices:/usr/local/share/Choices:/usr/share/Choices
3780 Fixed (possibly) a bug which sometimes causes the redraw to miss bits. This
3781 probably slows everything down, but the next Gtk+ release should do double
3782 buffering so all this will get changed then...
3786 Added a Help icon to the toolbar, which does the same as choosing `Show
3787 ROX-Filer Help' from the menu.
3791 Started adding some code to truncate long filenames (not finished yet).
3792 Fixed a bug which could cause directories to appear empty when using VFS.
3793 Added the 'Select If' minibuffer, which selects all files matching the
3798 Moved most of the icons from pixmaps to MIME-icons (outside ROX-Filer).
3799 Updated several of the remaining icons by copying them from the GNOME
3800 desktop (suggested by Volker Braun).
3803 16-May-2000 (Release 0.1.23)
3805 Added the `Window->Set Run Action' menu item. This allows you to specify the
3806 default run action for a file by simply dragging the file into a program.
3807 You can also enter a shell command in the minibuffer to make that command
3809 The cursor is a bit nicer and usually appears where you want it to now. You
3810 can also get rid of it by pressing Escape.
3814 Applied Bernard's patch (a couple of cosmetic changes to the action windows).
3815 Applied Vincent's patch (minor updates to the Frech translation).
3816 Fixed a problem with the pixmap caching - the filer would detect that the
3817 file had changed and try to reload it, but ImLib would simply return its
3822 Removed a debugging message that had somehow got into the release version :-(
3823 Fixed a bug in the minibuffer code - pressing Return when the cursor was in
3824 an empty directory caused odd effects.
3826 24-Apr-2000 (Release 0.1.22)
3828 When starting, the filer will check to see if it is already running.
3829 If it is then the arguments are passed to that copy.
3833 Bug fix: Attempting to open a Find preview window could cause a crash
3834 if the directory containing the item could not be opened.
3835 Button-3 clicking on the toolbar icons opens a new window.
3840 Added Vincent Lefevre's French translation. Changed to using my own
3841 gettext function because some platforms don't have it or implement
3844 18-Apr-2000 (Release 0.1.21)
3846 Completed marking translatable strings. Dragging with the middle button
3851 Made lots of changes to the way menus are stored; this makes i18n of the
3856 Added GNU gettext support.
3857 Shell meta-characters in shell commands are escaped.
3861 Tab in the shell commands minibuffer does shell-style completion.
3863 14-Apr-2000 (Release 0.1.20)
3865 ImLib is used for rendering if possible. Small Icons super-samples the
3870 Copying from inside a VFS directory now works.
3874 Added the Shell Command feature to the minibuffer.
3875 Fixed a bug which causes unnecessary flickering when a hidden file was
3877 Removed 'Touch' from the menu; easy enough from the minibuffer now.
3878 Changed the type guessing system - scans all files in MIME-info directories
3883 Added a nice list displaying the found files. Clicking opens a preview window
3884 onto the directory and winks the file.
3888 Merged the MIME-Type and Special fields in the info window into a single
3889 Type field (since only one could be used at a time anyway).
3890 Made lots of changes to the panel menu. You can now remove things much more
3892 Unstat()able files now display the error message in the Full Info display,
3893 instead of random values.
