2 A RISC OS-like filer for X
7 Some improvements to saved display settings (Takuo Yonezawa and Stephen
12 Allow multiple arguments for executable pinboard and panel icons (Thomas
14 Updated it.po and Manual-it (Yuri Bongiorno).
19 Use a higher quality setting when scaling the backdrop image (Ken Hayber).
23 Added PanelRemove() SOAP call (Sabin Iacob).
24 Bugfix: Mounting a directory that was accessed through a symlinked directory
25 used the symbolic path, confusing the mount command (Thomas Leonard;
26 reported by Anthony DiSante).
30 Force panel to not take focus when using GTK 2.4 (Thomas Leonard).
34 Minimum width of toolbar now an option (requested by Matthew Weier O'Phinney).
38 Only examine items that are actually displayed, not all items in a directory.
39 Saves checking hidden files, which typically speeds up opening the home
40 directory. Removed an unnecessary extra scan when opening a directory
41 with the default filter setting. Removed the double scan when clicking Refresh
42 and two windows show the same directory (Thomas Leonard).
46 Added option to make panels have the type _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DOCK (Tony
47 Houghton). Metacity needs this.
51 If we can't guess a file's type from its name or extended attribute, try
52 looking at its contents too, if we have gnomevfs 2.8.0 or later available
57 Panel and pinboard icons can now have a single argument set for them.
58 If you need more than one argument, consider creating a wrapper
63 Added --massif option for profiling memory usage (Thomas Leonard).
64 Warn about missing libsm in configure.in (reported by fedewico).
68 When resizing a window, only warp the pointer as much as necessary to keep
69 it inside the window (Thomas Leonard).
73 Ensure that a panel applet's properties are set before starting the applet
74 (reported by Tony Houghton).
78 Fixed panel menu positioning for multiple monitors with different resolutions
80 Use _NET_WM_STATE_BELOW to raise and lower the panel (Tony Houghton). Not
81 changing to type DOCK yet as it breaks some WMs.
85 Use new GTK 2.2 functions to set window hints now that we don't support 2.0
86 anymore (Guido Schimmels).
90 Plug a memory leak when loading SVG type icons (Stephen Watson).
94 Fix for the Solaris extended attribute support (Stephen Watson).
98 Set minimum width of toolbar so that all buttons are visible (Stephen Watson).
102 When adding an entry to the Recently Visited menu, remove its parent directory.
103 This stops the list filling up with near-duplicates when you have deeply
104 nested directories (Thomas Leonard).
108 Updated French manual translation (Arnaud Calvo).
112 For debugging, show the failed URI when dragging to the pinboard (Thomas
117 Use Help icon instead of Info icon for popup help buttons (Thomas Leonard).
121 Updated French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).
123 01-Aug-2004 (Release 2.1.3)
125 Build in ROX-Filer/build, not ~/build/ROX-Filer.
129 Renamed Cancel to Close in the Properties box (suggested by Arnaud Calvo).
130 Updated some calls to use newer APIs, and allow compilation on systems where
131 deprecated widgets are disabled by default (reported by Vincent Lefèvre and
133 Bugfix: Panel icons were no longer shown highlighted when selected.
137 Bugfix: When opening a new directory with saved settings, the filer would
138 print a warning and then crash.
142 Changed email address given as the one to send bugs to when using
143 --help to the rox-devel list (Stephen Watson).
144 Thumbnail generation now handles files with UTF-8 characters (Anatoly
149 Removed action window screenshot from manual to save space.
153 Proper check for the stat[v]fs headers (Stephen Watson, reported by
158 Added firefox to list of default browsers (suggested by eugene).
162 Added Romanian translation (Cosma Florin).
166 Can now set "Brief" option on the Copy and Move action windows (Stephen
168 Properties window handles mount points specially when calculating their size
173 Bugfix: On Linux, the filer called setxattr instead of getxattr, thus
174 preventing setting filetypes with extended attributes from working.
175 Bugfix: Copy and Move now obey the "Brief" option (Stephen Watson, reported
180 Bugfix: On multi-monitor setups, filer windows always opened on the top/left
181 monitor (reported by Kacper Wysocki). Now they open on the monitor
186 Icons of minimized windows remember their positions on the pinboard (Stephen
188 Filer now officially requires GTK 2.2.0 or later (wasn't working with 2.0
189 anyway, and noone had complained).
190 Bugfix: A race in the code for updating iconified window titles could cause
191 the filer to crash with a BadWindow error.
195 Another Properties window fix: if there is no output from the du command
196 then put a message indicating an error (Stephen Watson).
197 Can now compile without Xinerama support on GTK+ < 2.2.0 (Tony Houghton).
201 Let the panel autoscroll during a drag (Stephen Watson).
205 Fix another bug when closing Properties window before it has finished
206 scanning the directory (Stephen Watson).
210 Improved Xinerama support: now works for tooltips and action windows; filer
211 windows are no longer prone to leaving their borders overlapping; panel uses
212 _NET_WM_STRUT_PARTIAL so it only affects the monitor it's on (Tony Houghton).
216 Make ignoring executable files with known extensions the default setting
217 (suggested by Daniel Poersch). Freedesktop.org is discussing a plan to mark
218 individual MIME types as executable, which may be a better long-term
220 Option to prevent maximising windows from covering the panels (requested
221 by Simon Templer and others).
225 Type specific Send To entries now shown for multiple files when they
226 are all of the same type (Stephen Watson).
227 Can now drag icons to the very end of the panel (Stephen Watson).
231 Another place to look for apsymbols.h (Stephen Watson).
235 More fixes for the new build system (Stephen Watson).
239 Fix portability of new build system and ensure configure can find the
240 version number again (Stephen Watson).
244 Build object files in ~/build/ROX-Filer, in case source directory is read-only.
245 This also reduces the risk of distributing the object files by accident.
249 Don't allow toolbar buttons to focus (needed for GTK 2.4).
253 Fix loss of bookmark name when re-ordering (Rahsheen Porter).
254 Removed installation of thumbnail handlers via the Set Icon dialog. It was
255 never documented and all the thumbnailers use the mime_handler installation
256 anyway (Stephen Watson).
260 Updated French manual translation (Arnaud Calvo).
264 Updated Dutch translation (Jan Wagemakers).
268 Updated French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).
270 30-Apr-2004 (Release 2.1.2)
272 Removed toolbar hint type from panel. It caused too many problems.
276 Added 'Download handler' to drag and drop options. This program is invoked
277 when a URI is dragged to the filer (eg, from a web-browser). The default
278 command runs wget to download the file (Andrew Flegg).
282 Bugfix: URIs received through drag-and-drop were unescaped twice, causing
283 problems with names containing the '%' character (spotted by Jonatan
288 Cope with spaces in ROX-Filer's path.
289 Added a load of default keys, since many GTK setups now make it almost
290 impossible to change shortcuts.
291 Added --leaks option to run ROX-Filer through valgrind with the memory
292 leak option checking on (Stephen Watson).
296 Added Xinerama support (Tony Houghton).
297 Set window type hint = toolbar for panel to prevent it appearing in pagers etc
302 Added method of saving display settings for directories. Mostly working,
303 but bugs remain related to size and position (Stephen Watson).
304 Updated Spanish translation (Marcelo Ramos).
308 Load extended attribute functions dynamically. This should mean that compiling
309 ROX-Filer with a new glibc won't make it stop working with older versions due
310 to the functions being missing.
314 Use * as a synonym for unfiltered (Stephen Watson).
318 Bookmarks can be given titles (Stephen Watson).
322 Fix memory leak in thumbnails code (Stephen Watson).
326 Fixed bug in details mode for showing hidden files (Stephen Watson).
330 Don't display an error box when installing the ROX icon theme. It just
331 worries people for no reason.
335 Updated Chinese translation (Babyfai Cheung).
339 Option to make the File menu appear directly when the menu is opened with
340 files selected (Peter Geer).
344 Added an arrow to the comparison area of the action box so you can see
345 which file overwrites the other (Stephen Watson).
349 Sort by user/group now uses the name, not the number (Stephen Watson).
353 Added 'Select by Name'.
357 Cope with XRandR screen resizing (Geoff Youngs and Tom Morton).
361 Can now filter files by name, using normal shell (glob) patterns (Stephen
366 Updated it.po and Manual-it (Yuri Bongiorno).
370 Updated French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).

383 Misc changes for next release.
387 Accept Mozilla's alternative to the standard text/uri-list target during
388 drag-and-drop (Andrew Flegg).
392 Bugfix: Icon shortcuts with out modifier keys didn't work if NumLock,
393 CapsLock, etc were turned on (reported by Peter Geer).
394 Bugfix: Handle case when the output of uname -m contains spaces (Stephen
395 Watson, reported on #rox).
399 Renamed some functions stolen from Gtk to avoid possible conflicts with
400 the Gtk-2.3 series (reported by Stu Tissimus).
404 Make the Ctrl-button-3 menu pointer appear at the same place regardless
405 of the number of custom entries (Stephen Watson).
409 Make Ctrl-button-3 open the menu slightly higher, so Delete isn't under the
410 pointer (suggested by Ryan Pavlik).
414 Allow non image/* thumbnails in details mode. Label next to the combo
415 in the Set Type action dialog is now "Type" and not "Command" (Stephen
420 Work out which include file we need for getxattr (Stephen Watson).
424 Allow editing a symlink's target from the Properties box (suggested by Arnaud
426 Experimental extended attributes support for setting MIME types (Stephen
431 More drag and drop fixes relating to escaped URI's (Stephen Watson).
435 Added 'Specify the prefix' install option (Ryan Pavlik).
436 Updated Russian translation (Vladimir Popov).
440 Bugfix: Cancelling the info window with a du process still running could
441 crash the filer (reported by Peter Geer).
445 Renamed 'Info' menu item to 'Properties'.
449 If a panel icon has an empty label, show it full size (requested by Stephen
454 Use apsymbols.h (from autopackage.org) if possible for binary compatibility
455 with older glibc versions. Use g_ascii_* functions instead of the ctypes ones
457 Bugfix: Files with '&' in their names couldn't be saved in groups (reported
458 by Nils-Erik Svangård).
462 Updated Dutch translation (Jan Wagemakers).
463 Resizing by double clicking on background now optional (Stephen Watson).
467 Added optional top and bottom margines for iconized window placement
472 Don't lower the panel due when the pointer 'leaves' due to a grab (eg, clicking
473 or opening a menu). This also prevents a flickering problem with Openbox 3.
477 Bugfix: FreeBSD reported file sizes with units of 'null' due to large file
478 support not being detected (igla).
482 Larger default size for bookmarks editor (requested by Matthew Weier OPhinney).
486 Let the thumbnail helpers be app dirs, plus can be set from the Set Icon
487 dialog (Stephen Watson).
491 Improved socket icon (taken from Howard Shane's new theme).
495 Updated French manual translation (Arnaud Calvo).
496 Updated German translation (Guido Schimmels).
497 Offer Eject even for unmounted disks (reported by Matthew Weier O'Phinney).

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

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

634 (reported by Arnaud Calvo).
638 Sort items on the SendTo menu (requested by John Pettigrew).
642 Removed the menu-on-button-2 option. It was too inconsistant with everything
643 else, including panel applets and window managers, to be useful. Edit bind.c if

649 forward them explicitly.

740 Also install man pages under 'share/man'.

914 Allow changing the pinboard style without having to drag the image back in

920 Updated Spanish translation (Marcelo Ramos).
924 Option to turn off column headings in List View (Adam Sampson).
925 Panel auto-raising also works during drag-and-drop.

1452 Updated to new shared MIME database format.

1723 MIME information is now read from the freedesktop.org shared database rather
1724 than the old Choices/MIME-info directories.

1843 Times weren't converted to UTF-8, causing errors in some locales (reported
1844 by Christopher Arndt and tracked down by Andras Mohari).

2297 Thumbnails are now stored using an md5 hash of their names.
2298 Pinboard icons can be repositioned by dragging with the left mouse button
2299 (middle button drag stopped working with sawfish, and this is easier anyway).
2303 New scanning system: blank items are added to the window first and then the
2304 icons and types get filled in later. Looks better and simplifies the sizing
2306 Code tidying in various places.
2310 Bugfix: Filer would quit if only Info boxes were open.
2311 Bugfix: Pinboard and panel windows didn't get the correct hints set under

2341 it was in the displayed area before.

2353 Kristian A. Rink and others).

2356 selection (Andras Mohari).

2368 Added a new root window property (_ROX_FILER_EUID_HOST) which points to

2378 Moved 'Select All', 'Clear Selection' and 'Select If...' to a new 'Select'

2435 width or height of zero (Andras Mohari).

2448 (requested by Graham Borland).
2449 Added 'Types' section to the Options window, allowing easy(ish) access
2450 to the MIME-info files, plus a reload button, and icons for MIME-types can

2458 Bugfix: 'New Directory' didn't correctly select the leafname with Gtk+-2.0.
2462 Added Spanish translation (Marcelo Ramos).

2464 - Disk usage forgot to count special files like pipes, etc.
2465 - Page up/down scrolls a window full at a time instead of 10 items.
2466 - Don't get icons from the cache if thumbnail mode is off anymore.
2467 - modechange.c: deleted useless stuff and fixed octal parsing to detect
2468 *all* illegal values (eg 010000000000000).
2469 - Added 'Show/hide hidden files' toolbar button.
2470 - Lots of code tidying.

2504 option to access it directly.

2509 Bugfix: If file doesn't accept the '-b' option then examining a file in
2510 the root directory didn't work (Stephen Watson).
2514 Use --version instead of 'which' to test for programs as not everyone has
2515 which (suggested by Vincent Lefevre).
2516 Bugfix: When setting an icon for a file with a space in the name, the
2517 setting wasn't saved correctly (spotted by Arnaud Calvo and Jakub
2518 Turski). The 'globicons' file should be converted automatically
2519 when the filer is run.
2523 Added support for the regex field in MIME-info. This allows files to be
2524 matched with patterns, not just on their extensions. For example, '.gtkrc'
2525 is now typed 'x-gtkrc' despite having no extension (Stephen Watson and

2562 selection caused a crash (Fabien Coutant).
2566 Colour files by type (Andras Mohari).
2570 Added -p to mkdir in install scripts to create any missing parent
2571 directories (Michel Alexandre Salim).

2632 the first one found.
2633 Fixed another XML compiling problem (Stephen Watson).
2637 Added Customise to `Send To' menu.
2641 Detached Send To menu from main menu structure. Allows key-binding to open

2643 Shift+Menu brings up the menu directly.
2647 Fixed compiling problem with some versions of libxml (Stephen Watson).
2648 Changed a text message in the Options box (about binding keys to menus) into

2698 (requested by Andreas Dehmel).

2703 set command (suggested by Arnaud Calvo).
2705 12-Jul-2001 (Release 1.1.6)
2707 Updated the French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).

2765 Added an extra option to control the resizing behaviour. Can be set to resize

2770 Updated Russian translation (Dmitry Elfimov).

2824 The File Info box grabs the primary selection when a row is selected
2825 (allows you to paste email addresses, URLs, etc).
2829 Opening a pinboard or panel menu over an icon no longer selects it -- this
2830 allows the selection to be passed to an application run using its AppMenu
2831 (requested by Christopher Arndt).
2835 In Large Icons display style, a file's name may wrap onto a second line.
2839 Merged code for handling selections and menus that was common to pinboards

2867 (Christopher Arndt).

2951 held over the item (Denis Manente).
2953 30-Mar-2001 (Release 1.1.2)
2955 Asking for help on a directory always tries to open <dir>/Help first, even
2956 for non-applications.
2960 If run without -n, the filer will put itself in the background. Thus,
2961 the 'rox' command behaves the same whether or not the filer is already
2966 Support for the new version of libxml (reported by Andreas Dehmel).
2970 Rewrote parser for options. Smaller and neater (hopefully this will fix
2971 the bugs reported by Andreas Dehmel and Ewan Mac Mahon).
2973 Bugfix: While scanning, the resizer could make the window too large.
2977 Moving the cursor down in the next-to-last row will move to the last

2983 smaller (suggested by Diego Zamboni).
2987 Changing directory autosizes the window automatically (Denis Manente).
2988 Internal changes to the way different layouts are handled.
2992 Pressing space (to select/unselect an item) now also moves the cursor to
2993 the next item (suggested by Anders Lundmark).
2995 Copying directories tries to preserve the timestamps, like it does for
2996 files (suggested by José Romildo Malaquias).
3000 Added '--mime-type FILE' option, which simply writes the type of FILE to
3001 standard output (Stephen Watson).
3003 Added 'Home Directory' to Window menu (requested by Graham Borland).
3007 Copying a directory which doesn't have user write permission will give it
3008 user write during the copy to avoid permission denied errors (suggested by
3011 New sort option - 'Directories always come first' (requested by Liav Asseraf).
3015 Dragging a lasso box with the middle button toggles the selected state
3016 of the items enclosed (Denis Manente).
3020 Changing the display style now resizes the window (Denis Manente).
3024 New pinboards get a 'Home' icon in the top left corner as new users often
3025 think the pinboard isn't working because it starts empty (suggested by
3028 Converted AppMenu file format to XML.
3029 Added AppMenu file with options to control the pinboard.
3033 Highlight invalid Find expressions in red (Anders Lundmark).
3037 When resizing windows, try to keep the window fully inside the screen area
3042 Updated the Dutch translation (Jan Wagemakers).
3046 When mounting a device, the new window appears after mounting, not before.
3047 This means that it's more likely to get sized correctly (requested by
3052 Added two new options to control when minibuffer completion beeps (requested
3057 Added 'New File...' feature (James Kermode).
3061 Dropping icons on the pinboard positions them sensibly (Diego Zamboni).
3063 09-Feb-2001 (Release 1.1.1)
3065 Moving pinboard icons is nicer - it no longer assumes you dragged the middle
3066 of the text... (Diego Zamboni).
3068 Added a Polish translation (Andrzej Borsuk).
3070 Bugfix: Sometimes it wasn't possible to delete something that was on a
3071 pinboard or panel, even after confirming (reported by Diego Zamboni).
3075 Sliders in the options box can have a numerical value display (Diego Zamboni).
3076 Fixed a stray warning message displayed when non-default pinboard options
3077 were used (Diego Zamboni).
3079 New menu item 'Set Icon...' allows you to choose any icon for any file or
3080 directory. Also allow .DirIcon.png to set a directory's icon (Diego Zamboni).
3084 Many internal changes to the Options system.
3088 Bugfix: On filesystems which aren't case sensitive (eg DOS) it was possible
3089 to copy 'tmp' as 'Tmp' and lose it! (reported by Denis Manente)
3093 Added Diego Zamboni's patch to make configuring VFS easier.
3097 Improved compiling - now correctly reports an error if the file doesn't
3098 compile. If configure is missing then autoconf is run automatically.
3100 After a Find completes, you are given the option of doing the search again
3103 Applications can define a list of menu items to display on their menus
3104 (Diego Zamboni). The file should be called 'AppMenu' and contains a list of
3105 lines in the form 'option Text'.
3109 Added two new pinboard options - one to allow setting the grid step size
3110 and one to allow icons to go slightly off the side of the screen (Diego
3115 Bugfix: Textured window backgrounds could cause a crash (reported by Diego
3120 Updated the French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).
3122 Bugfix: The pixbuf stuff didn't work on some displays (reported by Stephen
3125 20-Jan-2001 (Release 1.1.0)
3127 Removed the 'Initial window height' option. The filer tries to pick a
3128 sensible shape itself now.
3130 Bugfix: If an image was moved to a directory which didn't generate thumbs
3131 then it would display, but never be updated. Even if it wasn't that
3132 file at all, just a reused inode!
3133 Bugfix: Changing the display style didn't always redraw the display.
3134 Bugfix: In 'Small, With...' display mode, clicking beyond the far right
3135 column acted like clicking on the far-right column.
3139 Changed background colour to be more compatible with the Gtk themes system.
3143 Removed all the message window stuff. ROX-Filer no longer grabs standard
3144 error from its child processes. Changed because ROX-Session now does a much
3149 Filer is more generous in what hostnames it considers local.
3150 Patch to include pixbuf headers correctly (Diego Zamboni).
3154 Bug fix: Didn't always use the fully qualified host name for DnD.
3158 If a file has a known extension then it is given the appropriate type even
3159 if the file is executable (Simon Britnell).
3163 Added a menu entry 'Resize Window' to set the window to a sensible size
3168 Try to open new windows at a sensible size for their contents (Denis Manente).
3172 Bugfix: When mounting or unmounting subdirectories of '/', the mount symbol
3173 wasn't updated (reported by Wilbert Berendsen).
3177 Fixed a couple of memory leaks in the choices system (Diego Zamboni).
3178 Updated French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).
3179 Added new 'Create Thumbs' entry on the Display menu which tries to load
3180 every file in the directory as an image and use that image for the file
3181 (suggested by Sprague and Simon Britnell).
3185 Converted to use gdk-pixbuf instead of ImLib.
3186 Fixed a few compiler warnings and improved the error message displayed
3187 if you try to invoke rox on a missing file (reported by Vincent Lefèvre).
3188 Changed the -w, -W and -i flags to the simpler -x=FILE, which reexamines the
3189 given file, updating directory views and icons as needed.
3193 AppIcon.xpm must be a regular file (stops people trying to crash the
3194 filer by symlinking to /dev/...).
3195 Fixed a missing translation in the pinboard options (Denis Manente).
3199 Attempting to run the filer before compiling will now ask if you want
3201 Removed lots of platform-specific mount point code and replaced it with
3202 python's portable system.
3203 New options section allows you to choose a translation without having to
3204 set the LANG variable.
3208 Added '-w', '-i' and '-W' command line options for forcing icons or
3209 directories to be rescanned (Diego Zamboni).
3211 13-Dec-2000 (Release 1.0.0)
3213 Made a few updates to the manual.
3217 Fixes to make compiling easier on Solaris (Diego Zamboni). Also, after showing
3218 a pinboard icon, tries to send it to the back (might help with some WMs).
3220 04-Dec-2000 (Release 0.1.30)
3222 When a panel is used for the first time, put the user's home directory and
3223 the directory containing ROX-Filer on it instead of leaving it blank.
3227 Patch to make compiling easier under FreeBSD (Jimmy Olgeni).
3228 Added a #include for OSF1 (Vincent Lefevre).
3232 Bugfix: On many systems, the filer would fail to remove zombie processes
3233 due to a typo (spotted by Philip Hazel and tracked down by Stephen
3238 Bugfix: Removing an item from the panel now resizes the panel (reported
3239 by Wilbert Berendsen).
3240 Bugfix: Editing an icon's path failed to update its hash entry.
3244 If a case-sensitve match for an extension can't be found then try a
3245 case-insensitive match - so .BMP and similar work (Denis Manente).
3249 A few changes to remove some compiler warnings (reported by Vincent Lefevre).
3250 Added a VFS menu entry for .deb files (Vincent Ledda).
3254 Mounting or unmounting a directory forces mtab to be reread, even if the
3255 timestamp hasn't changed (problem reported by Wilbert Berendsen).
3257 When the 'Unique windows' option is on, remove the old window AFTER creating
3258 the new one, so that the filer doesn't quit because there are zero windows
3259 open... (Denis Manente).
3263 Updated the Dutch translation (Jan Wagemakers).
3267 Updated the French translation (Vincent Lefèvre).
3269 Using --version and --help options no longer requires an X server connection,
3270 the man-pages are more standard, and 'man ROX-Filer' is allowed as well as
3271 'man rox' (Bernard Jungen).
3273 Bugfix: A corrupted AppIcon.xpm could crash the filer.
3275 24-Oct-2000 (Release 0.1.29)
3277 Code tidying: Replaced an XLib call with a gdk one (Denis Manente) and amended
3278 the makedist script to remove the .cvsignore files (spotted by Andy
3283 Improved the install script so that it installs the man-page. Also made it
3284 easier to use. Updated the French translation and fixed a couple of
3285 typos (Vincent Lefèvre).
3289 Gtk+ doesn't always scroll entry widgets to show the selection - apply a
3290 workaround (Denis Manente) - this improves the Copy/Rename/etc boxes.
3294 Added a Dutch translation (Jan Wagemakers).
3298 Added an Italian translation (Denis Manente).
3302 Bugfix: If AppRun was a symlink, then the owner of the file was checked, not
3303 the owner of the symlink. Slight security risk, and also prevented
3304 users symlinking AppRun to their binaries...
3308 Bugfix: Deleting a pinboard icon while it was highlighted caused a crash.
3309 This means it is now possible to click on a pinboard icon to change
3310 between pinboards...
3312 Bugfix: Textured window backgrounds didn't redraw correctly when scrolled
3313 or resized. Now flickers when resizing if there's a textured
3314 background - seems to be necessary :-(
3318 Running as root now simply turns on the -u flag, rather than displaying
3321 The toolbar height is now correctly taken into account when sizing a new filer
3322 window (Denis Manente).
3324 When guessing file types from extensions, the filer now tries to find the
3325 longest extension that matches (eg .ps.gz, then .gz).
3329 The lasso box is now drawn so that the box will be in the foreground colour
3330 over the background, rather than by just inverting the pixel value and hoping
3331 it's visible (spotted by Philip Hazel).
3335 If the home directory is '/' then don't show it as '~' (suggested by
3338 Added '--show=FILE' option - this will be needed by other ROX
3339 applications, so it needs to be in version 1.0.0.
3341 Bugfix: -d option didn't use realpath before sending to an already-running
3346 The 'install.sh' script now uses 'printf' instead of 'echo -e' to suppress
3347 newlines (suggested by Bernard Jungen).
3349 Bugfix: Close tool was always disabled on startup (reported by Martin Ward).
3353 Added a man-page (Andy Piper).
3354 Changed `install.sh' from bash to sh (Bernard Jungen).
3356 18-Sep-2000 (Release 0.1.28)
3358 Bugfix: menu entries on the pinboard menu weren't being shaded and
3363 Changed 'Rename Item' to 'Edit Icon' and allowed changing the path that
3364 the icon points to as well as its name.
3366 All i?86 platforms are treated as being equivalent (so, if you compile
3367 on a 386 then it'll still run on a 486).
3371 Pinboard icons can also be renamed.
3372 Pinboard and panel icons can have '~' or '~/' at the start of their
3373 pathnames - this should make it easier to create a system-wide default
3374 panel or pinboard with icons relative to the user's home directory.
3378 Panel icons can now be renamed (suggested by Ewan Mac Mahon).
3382 Changing the toolbar options affects existing windows, not just new ones.
3383 Removed the 'Size Bars' display style and replaced it with 'Permissions',
3384 'Type' and 'Times' styles.
3388 With items that spread over their normal width because they're on the
3389 edge of the window, clicking on the extra bit now works.
3391 Added a size limit of 400K on application icons. This is to prevent
3392 someone trying to crash the filer by linking /tmp/MyApp/AppIcon.xpm
3395 Dragging an item with the middle button when none are selected unselects
3396 the item after the drag.
3398 Added 'Show Location' feature for pinboard and panels - opens a directory
3399 showing where the file really is.
3403 Allowed items in the far right column to spread right to the edge of the
3404 window. Fixed a bug which prevented Delete from working if there was
3409 Deleting items first checks if it will affect the pinboard or panel. A
3410 warning is displayed if so.
3412 Upgraded the query dialog (from ROX-Session) - looks nicer.
3416 'Unique filer windows' option now has no effect while the spring open
3417 feature is active (spotted by Andrew Booker). Also, when opening a new
3418 window, the old window is destroyed and a new one created (rather than
3419 reusing the old one). This ensures that the new window appears in the
3422 When a drag from the pinboard or a filer window ends, the selection is
3423 only cleared if the icon was selected by starting the drag. Thus, it now
3424 works like the panels.
3428 New Close toolbar button (requested by Martin Ward).
3429 Toolbar icons can be turned on and off from the Options box.
3430 Removed the 'Mount' menu entry, since 'Shift Open' does it too.
3431 Made the Shift Open menu text change depending on what is selected.
3432 Bugfix: dragging icons around no longer saved the new pinboard state!
3436 Running a second copy of the filer as another user will start a new copy
3437 instead of reusing the existing one. Added the '-u' option to display the
3438 name of the user running the filer in each window (also suppresses the
3439 normal don't-run-as-root warning).
3441 Added '-d', which opens a directory as a directory, even if it looks like
3446 Added Large and Small toolbar buttons. Right-clicking brings up a menu.
3450 Moved 'Set Run Action' to the file menu (suggested by Ewan Mac Mahon), and
3451 made using it bring up a dialog rather than a minibuffer. Hopefully it is now
3454 Added much improved icons for executables and for applications without icons
3455 of their own (Victor Liu See-le).
3457 Allow '/' on the pinboard and panel (text wasn't displayed - spotted by
3460 Bugfix: auto-scrolling didn't always stop when a drag ended.
3461 Bugfix: creating a panel with the same name as a file in the current
3462 directory caused an error due to a throwback from when panels were
3463 directories (spotted by Ewan Mac Mahon).
3465 30-Aug-2000 (Release 0.1.27)
3467 Increased the distance you have to move the pointer to start a drag
3468 slightly. Updated the manual.
3470 Panel icons can now be moved from one side to the other by simply moving
3471 over the gap in the middle. Previously, you had to jump over an icon on
3474 Left and right panels look better now. Also, they shrink if you add a top
3475 or bottom panel to make room.
3479 Dragging on the panel background allows you to slide the bar back and
3484 Fixed a slight bug with lasso boxes, which could cause them to be drawn in
3485 the wrong place. Install script no longer overwrites the default run
3486 actions; if the user has changed them leave them alone!
3487 (Martin Ward noted that symlinking to an executable would cause the
3488 executable to be destroyed on upgrade!)
3492 More improvements to the event handling. Seems to be working again at
3494 Made the toolbar buttons slightly larger, and added a textual display
3495 for 'Next Click' mode (eg 'Delete ... ?' when it's waiting for you to
3497 Moved the pinboard over to the new mouse binding code too.
3501 Started rewriting the event handling for filer windows to go through
3502 the new code in bind.c, like the panel handling does.
3506 You can now drag icons from the panel to other applications.
3510 Dragging panel icons with the middle button allows you to move them around.
3512 New option to set the default height for new filer windows (patch from
3517 Selecting panel icons now grabs the primary selection. Pasting pastes all
3518 selected file path names. Icons can now be added to either side of the panel.
3520 Bug fix: Moving a file didn't always update the source directory.
3524 Many improvements to the panel - drag and drop to icons, adding new icons,
3525 selections (doesn't grab the primary selection yet though), removing icons
3526 and automatically saving the panel when it's changed.
3530 Improved reference counting on images (hopefully!). Lots of work on
3531 rewriting the panel system.
3535 Made the timeout for the spring-open feature configurable (requested by
3538 Use short form of --version in install.sh and don't use unsetenv() if it
3539 isn't available (Mattias Engdegård).
3543 New options to set the pinboard text foreground and background colours
3544 (suggested by James Kermode).
3548 Your home directory is now displayed as '~' in the title bar, rather
3549 than as a full path.
3551 01-Aug-2000 (Release 0.1.26)
3553 Added a popup menu of commonly used chmod strings to the Permissions
3554 box. Bracketed text and spaces are now ignored in the commands.
3555 Bug fix: Only menu keys changed since the last load were saved!
3559 Bug fix: Mount points on the pinboard didn't always redraw when the
3560 mounted/unmounted state changed.
3564 Renaming now uses the action windows. This means that you can now
3565 rename something onto another filesystem.
3569 The menu key bindings are now only saved if they actually changed.
3571 Code tidying: Moved some typedefs to the new `global.h' file and
3572 thus removed the dependencies between header files :-)
3576 Tab and Shift-Tab move to next and previous selected item.
3580 The new display styles can now be saved as the defaults (bug spotted by
3583 When autoscrolling is used, prevent the last-highlighted directory
3584 from springing open. 'spring open' now defaults to off.
3586 The toolbar Up and Home buttons can act as drop targets (and spring open
3589 Options to set the pinboard text background style (suggested by James
3594 Added an option to control the spring-loading feature. Added tooltips
3595 to some of the options. Improved the rule for deciding whether to open
3596 a new window when you click on the toolbar buttons.
3598 Stopped the spring-open window moving while it's open (prevents a bug
3599 in GTK+ from causing problems). Please use GTK+ 1.2.8 or later now!
3601 Dragging near the edge of a window scrolls. Improved the lasso box drag
3602 to use the same system (so it scrolls without you having to move the
3607 Added 'spring-loaded' directories. If you drag a file over a directory and
3608 hold it there, the directory will spring open! (suggested by Barney
3613 In the path entry minibuffer, an exact match is favoured over any other
3614 match. So, if you enter '.xsession' and press Return you'll get it, not
3615 '.xsession-errors' or whatever!
3617 The filer now clears APP_DIR from the environment so that child processes
3618 don't get it. Fixed a bug which caused problems when using a small version
3619 of the 'missing image' image.
3623 Creating a new directory now makes sure the display is updated.
3625 18-Jul-2000 (Release 0.1.25)
3627 Prevent dragging from a pinboard selection to itself, or onto the desktop
3632 Clicking on the root window works (button-1 clears the selection,
3633 button-3 opens the pinboard menu). The pinboard can own the primary
3634 selection, which means that you can select something and then paste
3635 its name into another program.
3637 Keys bound to menu entries are automatically saved when the filer quits.
3641 Changed the install script so that the CVS directories don't get installed.
3643 The 'rox' script now just calls AppRun directly.
3644 Panels can be created without starting a new copy of the filer.
3645 The pinboard can be changed or removed by using --pinboard a second time.
3647 Files can be given as arguments - they are opened as if they were clicked
3648 on in a filer window (suggested by Alex Holden). If no arguments are
3649 given then the default is now the current directory (not your home
3652 If you start the leafname in the path minibuffer with '.' then the Show
3653 Hidden feature is temporarily turned on.
3657 Ctrl-clicking selects and unselects pinboard icons. Menu clicking
3658 selects the icon clicked on while the menu is open. Pinned icons are
3659 now updated when the pointer moves over them, if necessary.
3663 Menu-clicking on a pinboard icon now brings up a menu.
3664 Clicks on the root window are still ignored though; need to support
3665 the GNOME-compliant window manager system for passing root clicks on...
3669 Files can now be dragged to pinboard icons, and they highlight nicely too!
3670 If the --override option is used, the filer will bypass the window manager
3671 and position the icons directly.
3675 Pinboard icons can now be dragged to filer windows or applications, just
3680 Changed the DnD code to make it easier for the pinboard code to use it.
3681 Up and Home buttons on the toolbar now use the 'New window on button 1'
3682 option setting (suggested by Vincent Lefèvre).
3686 Pinboard can have mount points and symlinks on it.
3690 Dragging with the Menu button moves icons around. Clicking with the
3691 other button removes icons from the pinboard.
3695 Dragging files to the pinboard adds them to it and automatically saves
3700 Pinboard is now loaded from a file specified on the command line.
3704 'Home' now appears on the background if you run it with --pinboard.
3705 Clicking opens your home directory. Doesn't do much else.
3706 Fixed a bug which prevented the minibuffer label from appearing on
3707 some versions of GTK+.
3711 First steps towards pinboard support (requested by P.S.S.Camp and
3716 Changed the Display menu layout - now there are four basic types (Large or
3717 Small, with or without details) and the type of detail desired is chosen
3718 from a sub-sub-menu.
3720 Added a new display style - bars showing the sizes of the files. The bars are
3721 drawn on a log scale.
3725 Changed the display menu - you can now choose large or small icons, with or
3726 without details. The details displayed can also be changed. I'm not quite
3727 happy with the UI yet though...
3729 Split the filer.c source file into two (filer.c and display.c) since it was
3730 becoming rather unwieldy. This means that some of the option names have
3731 changed because they've moved to a new section in the options window...
3735 Fixed a problem where ImLib support failed on multi-depth displays (reported
3736 by Stephen Harrison).
3738 06-Jun-2000 (Release 0.1.24)
3740 Added the install.sh script for easier installation.
3741 Removed 'MIME-info' file from ROX-Filer - now we always assume that the
3742 standard types are in Choices.
3743 Fixed a bug which could cause 'top' panels to appear in the wrong place
3745 Changed the sort order for Sort By Type so that directories come before
3746 files (suggested by Chris Garrett).
3747 `Single-click navigation' and 'Ignore case when sorting' now both default
3752 Improved the theme support to allow tiled background images.
3753 Fixed a bug which prevented tilde expansion from working in the
3754 shell command minibuffer.
3758 Made the help button look a bit nicer and changed the Find and Permissions
3759 action windows to use the icon instead of a text button.
3760 Removed the 3D borders from the help and toolbar buttons when not selected
3761 (looks much better!). Setting a run action by dragging to a symlink now
3762 dereferences the link (suggested by Ewan Mac Mahon).
3764 Default search path for Choices is now:
3765 ~/Choices:/usr/local/share/Choices:/usr/share/Choices
3767 Fixed (possibly) a bug which sometimes causes the redraw to miss bits. This
3768 probably slows everything down, but the next Gtk+ release should do double
3769 buffering so all this will get changed then...
3773 Added a Help icon to the toolbar, which does the same as choosing `Show
3774 ROX-Filer Help' from the menu.
3778 Started adding some code to truncate long filenames (not finished yet).
3779 Fixed a bug which could cause directories to appear empty when using VFS.
3780 Added the 'Select If' minibuffer, which selects all files matching the
3785 Moved most of the icons from pixmaps to MIME-icons (outside ROX-Filer).
3786 Updated several of the remaining icons by copying them from the GNOME
3787 desktop (suggested by Volker Braun).
3790 16-May-2000 (Release 0.1.23)
3792 Added the `Window->Set Run Action' menu item. This allows you to specify the
3793 default run action for a file by simply dragging the file into a program.
3794 You can also enter a shell command in the minibuffer to make that command
3796 The cursor is a bit nicer and usually appears where you want it to now. You
3797 can also get rid of it by pressing Escape.
3801 Applied Bernard's patch (a couple of cosmetic changes to the action windows).
3802 Applied Vincent's patch (minor updates to the Frech translation).
3803 Fixed a problem with the pixmap caching - the filer would detect that the
3804 file had changed and try to reload it, but ImLib would simply return its
3809 Removed a debugging message that had somehow got into the release version :-(
3810 Fixed a bug in the minibuffer code - pressing Return when the cursor was in
3811 an empty directory caused odd effects.
3813 24-Apr-2000 (Release 0.1.22)
3815 When starting, the filer will check to see if it is already running.
3816 If it is then the arguments are passed to that copy.
3820 Bug fix: Attempting to open a Find preview window could cause a crash
3821 if the directory containing the item could not be opened.
3822 Button-3 clicking on the toolbar icons opens a new window.
3827 Added Vincent Lefevre's French translation. Changed to using my own
3828 gettext function because some platforms don't have it or implement
3831 18-Apr-2000 (Release 0.1.21)
3833 Completed marking translatable strings. Dragging with the middle button
3838 Made lots of changes to the way menus are stored; this makes i18n of the
3843 Added GNU gettext support.
3844 Shell meta-characters in shell commands are escaped.
3848 Tab in the shell commands minibuffer does shell-style completion.
3850 14-Apr-2000 (Release 0.1.20)
3852 ImLib is used for rendering if possible. Small Icons super-samples the
3857 Copying from inside a VFS directory now works.
3861 Added the Shell Command feature to the minibuffer.
3862 Fixed a bug which causes unnecessary flickering when a hidden file was
3864 Removed 'Touch' from the menu; easy enough from the minibuffer now.
3865 Changed the type guessing system - scans all files in MIME-info directories
3870 Added a nice list displaying the found files. Clicking opens a preview window
3871 onto the directory and winks the file.
3875 Merged the MIME-Type and Special fields in the info window into a single
3876 Type field (since only one could be used at a time anyway).
3877 Made lots of changes to the panel menu. You can now remove things much more
3879 Unstat()able files now display the error message in the Full Info display,
3880 instead of random values.
3881 Check for copying a directory onto itself, as well as into itself.
3883 Applied Bernard's patch:
3884 - Copy (menu entry) now works with action window.
3885 - Deleted/moved directory displays are automatically hidden.
3886 - Added option not to allow run/copy when object
