Re: [Gprename-users] RE : Re: RE : [gprename] wishlist

[Lacrocivious A. <alt...@ya...>]

I agree with Marvin that starting in ~/.gprename is
useless, but I like the 'remember last directory'
option (and have recommended it before). Gwenview, to
name one example, has this option and it is very
useful. Kaffeine seems also to follow this method, as
do KGet, Firefox downloader, and the DownThemAll!
Firefox extension, to name just a few.

Of course one can set the menu to start the program in
any directory, but I find that in the course of actual
use, no single directory is what I want. Rather, I
tend  more often to wish the program started where I
last used it, as I am more likely to use it in that
place at next startup.

While I'm at it, I wish pane sizing adjustments would
retain settings during last use. At present they
revert to some default I don't like. I'm referring to
the left pane/right pane, and 'Name/New name' columns
in particular.

The hidden files/directories toggle is an excellent
idea, particularly if available by, say, right-click
context menu in the left pane where the tree is. I
wish Konqueror had this left-pane option in file
management mode (it does have it in the right pane). I
realize right-click isn't apparently used in the
current version.

Likewise, I believe the number of files and
directories display would be a useful addition.

Just my views ;-)
