Thanks for your reply! I won't be using Samba much longer but still have some files on an old Windows box.
Artix Linux: "I can't get the utility "nmblookup" to work."
Hi, I'm sorry to hear that you have this problem but, to be honest, I'm not surprised. I don't use samba and I expect few other 4Pane users do. As a result it's little tested. My last experience with it was 12 years ago when another user reported that it wasn't working. Despite us both trying for 3 weeks I don't think his issue was resolved. I'm glad you are able to work-around the problem by using a different file manager and I suggest you continue to use that, at least for samba, . I'm sorry if...

No crash, but no display... and no new .config/4Pane created. That's a shame. A damaged .config/.4Pane was the most likely cause, and the easiest to fix.

Massive deleting of files on start
Thank you for letting me know about this disturbing report. Of course I've never experienced anything like this either, even in the early days when 4Pane was experimental. There is nothing in the code that could cause any sort of automatic behaviour. The only way I can conceive of it happening is if some other program was controlling the keyboard and/or mouse, and the 4Pane instance happened to be in focus while it operated. Extremely unlikely, but I have no better suggestion. As for the reporter's...

The command line is always in place Not necessarily: if you close it from the View menu, then do Options > Save pane settings, it won't be there when you restart 4Pane. which I think requires an extra step to open the emulator No, it should open when the Command-line opens. If it doesn't, that's a bug. which makes me a good person to find shortcomings Indeed. If anyone finds a bug, or an important missing feature, I definitely want to be told!
It's a paste situation on the command line. The command line is always in place and as I said I see the output of commands in what you call the terminal emulator which I think requires an extra step to open the emulator. I just started using your software so I'm by no means an expert which makes me a good person to find shortcomings.
I was not able to choose any thing from the output of the Find Command. Nothing personal but it seems that Linux software is under functionalized while Window's is overfunctionalized. I get that all software starts as what someone sees as a need but then make it the best you can. This is why Linux struggles rather than challenging Microsoft which doesn't have a great system and it's hard to fix because of their design choices where Linux is easy to repair but still largely driven by cryptic command...
Right mouse click on Command Line Gives Unexpected Results
I'm surprised it does even that ;) The Command-line is there just in case anyone has a use for it, though I can't think of one myself. I use the Terminal Emulator directly, rather than entering a command in the Command-line, then looking in the Terminal Emulator for the output. I also can't think of much use for a context menu there: there's no output text to copy, only the Prompt and any text you type. If you want to copy that, highlighting should add it to the Primary clipboard, then middle-click...
And if i use your Find command in the drop down I whould think it would hide all the permission problems or at lkeast give me a way to hide them or sudo them so they get searched if neccesary.
If I do a find the output of the find is displayed at the bottom that to me is not a terminal it's a log.

Copy capability should be everywhere
displayed as output at the bottom I presume you mean in the Terminal Emulator. That does have a context menu in the correct circumstance: try running 'ls' in it so that you get a valid list of filepaths; then a right-click will give you the choice of GoTo that filepath, or Open it (see the screenshot). Partly because of that, there's no default context menu. I'll see if I can provide one without disrupting the current situation.
Yes, I've occasionally seen this myself. It varies between distros, meaning their DE and/or Window Managers, and I've only seen it when 4Pane is built against GTK+3 (more accurately, when 4Pane's wxWidgets dependency is built against GTK+3). And of course, I can't now find a DE/WM combination that demonstrates the issue! Which distro/version are you using? And which DE and WM? Which version of 4Pane? And of its wxWidgets and GTK: you can discover those by doing Ctrl-Alt-Middleclick over 4Pane: see...
This also can haapen on the tree side.

Thank you for the reply, the reasons are admittable :-) And thanks for the file manager too!
Ah, I see what you mean. No, 4Pane intentionally doesn't do mime-types. From the FAQ: Why doesn't 4Pane look up the mime-type of each file it displays? Speed. Opening my /usr/bin directory containing several thousand files used to take less than a second in 4Pane, compared with 15 seconds in Konqueror. Admittedly that was some time ago, and the difference is much less with a more modern computer. Nevertheless, why spend time and cpu cycles checking when you hardly ever need to know the answers? Of...
The setting you mentioned affects toolbar icons only. What I desire is to see smarter file icons in file panes, see the screenshot (the same folder content in nautilus over 4Pane).
Hi, 4Pane can use either the system icons, or its own. IIRC it uses the system ones by default, but you can see and change this in Options > Configure 4Pane > The Display > Misc: 'Whenever possible, use stock icons. See also https://www.4pane.co.uk/manual/ConfiguringDisplay.htm If that setting is already ticked, it might be worth trying temporarily changing your system font and see if 4Pane changes with it. Regards, David
Hellow! Is there a way to change the default iconset? The default icons for file navigation pane items often do not match a selected system's theme and don't reflect file types. The example of disired icon view is e.g. nautilus -- WBR Yuri.
Filetypes.cpp:363: infinite-recursion
It looks to me like your most recent code is irrelevant to the point I was trying to make. My apologies for the confusion. AFAIK, the casts in the original code don't affect anything. The code is essentially bool DataBase::IsValid() { if (something) return IsValid(); else return IsValid(); } which is why the clang compiler is getting upset. After this many years, however broken the code may or not be, you clearly aren't that bothered about fixing it, so it looks to me like continuing to find bugs...
Is this different from your previous report, https://sourceforge.net/p/fourpane/bugs/11/ ? Or is the report itself recursive? ;) In the intervening 5 years, I've had no reports of actual infinite recursion, and experienced none myself.
This seems again dup of https://sourceforge.net/p/fourpane/bugs/11/ .
