What is this supposed to mean and where does it occur 'Mingle files and folders'. I’ve not seen it in use so can't find a context for it. -- Yorvyk |

Since my native language isn't English I could not invent some better label than that which still is short enough (remember, it's an popup menu option and popup menu certainly shouldn't have the same size as parent window or take width of half of screen) and that one was got from feature request in tracker. If you can propose something better then do it, please. Thank you. WBR, Andriy. |

This was also addressed on lubuntu-user and I posted an answer there. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/lubuntu-users/2012-October/002759.html LStranger has since then confirmed my interpretation (with CC to this list) but that is held for moderation as he is not subscribed to the lubuntu ML.

The version 1.1.0 is next development branch after 1.0.x series and is just planned, work on it will be started after 1.0.2 release. WBR, Andriy. |

At least we can make sense out of incorrectly worded sentences. That is great and thank you very much! And few strings appeared ahead of their context just because it's part of future implementation. The code written in one huge piece is always more error-prone than few lesser pieces, done on step-by-step basis. It's why sometime pieces of code appear before the implementation is complete. I'm sorry for that. With the best wishes. Andriy. |
