I think we're about ready for the second pre-release... Could people download and check the 'rox' and 'rox-base' cvs snapshots and test them? ftp://rox.sourceforge.net/pub/rox Also, now would be a good time to send in any new/updated translations! Thanks, Thomas Leonard -- tal197 at users.sourceforge.net |

I've made a couple of changes to the Huge Icons stuff: - You can use Huge Icons with various extra details (Huge, With...) - Normal sized icons get scaled up a bit so they don't look too silly! If it's OK for everyone, I'll release 1.1.3 in a few days (test it!). Note that the version number is now extracted from AppInfo.xml at compile-time using sed - can non-GNU people check this works for them? -- Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net ta...@ec... ta...@us... |

Hi, I'm back! I've upgraded the filer to support Gtk+-1.3.10 (1.3.9 is no longer supported, but the 1.2.x series is). I'll make a new release in a couple of days, and then look at all the patches that have built up...

I'm planning to do a 1.1.10 release in a couple of days. The main changes are the improved thumbnailing support and bug fixes. Test it! I'm not planning on making any big changes after this, just getting bugs out until the next stable release. -- Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net ta...@ec... ta...@us... |

Having run out of important bugs to fix, I'm planning on doing another release tomorrow. The CVS snapshots are up-to-date -- test it!! There are changes to the internationalisation rules for pinboards and panels (the XML files are stored in UTF-8, but names and pathnames are converted to the local charset for Gtk+-1.2). Changing thumbnails should be handled better now, pasting into the latest gnome-terminal works, plus quite a few other bug fixes. Since it looks like we'll do a stable release before Gtk+-2.0 comes out (and we can't therefore test it properly), the filer now always compiles against Gtk+-1.2 unless you give the --with-gtk2 compile option. -- Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net ta...@ec... ta...@us... |

Hi everyone, I'm planning on doing the 1.1.13 release tomorrow. The changes are updated translations, more paranoid checks to make sure you don't lose your pinboard/panel/groups/globicons settings, easier selection of items, support for version 0.5 of the thumbnails spec, double-clicking a file clears the selection, Gtk+-1.3.13 support, fixed focussing in saveboxes, and a small fix for the window resizing. Please check the snapshots for obvious problems: http://rox.sourceforge.net/snapshots/ -- Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net ta...@ec... ta...@us... |

Hi everyone, I'm planning to make the 1.1.14 release tomorrow, and then a (hopefully identical) 1.2.0 release on Monday. The changes are: minor updates to the translations; fixed compile problem if iconv.h was missing; Escape now closes dialog boxes; and the double-click-to-unselect change has been reverted back to the 1.1.12 behaviour. As usual, the snapshot is here: http://rox.sourceforge.net/snapshots/ Test it! It should compile against Gtk+-1.2.x by default. You can get it to compile against 1.3.13 using the --with-gtk2 flag, but there are still some minor bugs (mainly in Gtk itself) with that which won't be fixed for 1.2.0. People with patches waiting for after 1.2.0 might want to upload them to the patch tracker: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=7023&atid=307023 (make sure you're logged in, or it doesn't work very well) -- Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net ta...@ec... ta...@us... |

Due to the large number of bugs in ROX-Filer 1.3.1, I'm planning to do another release in a couple of days (without much in the way of new features). Please test the CVS snapshots now! http://rox.sourceforge.net/snapshots/ New features: - Switch to Xterm - Text beside icon toolbar style Bugs fixed: - Target mode sometimes printed warnings instead of working. - Root menu could appear in the wrong place with IceWM. - Changes in Gtk+-2.0.4 and later stopped SOAP messages from working. - Changes to the pinboard font realigns the text. - Globicons didn't work for symlinked files in the Send To menu. - Race condition stopped backdrop handlers from working sometimes. - Keyboard shortcuts didn't work in some cases. The have also been quite a lot of internal changes, so look out for new brokenness ;-) -- Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net ta...@ec... ta...@us... |

I'm going to put out ROX-Filer 1.3.10 in a few days, probably to become 2.0.0 quickly after that. Last chance to update translations / report serious bugs! Snapshots here: http://rox.sourceforge.net/snapshots/ Changes: When dragging a lasso box in List view, don't stop scrolling when the pointer leaves the window. Minor updates to the manual (should be completely correct for 2.0.0 now). Using the Edit MIME types button in the Options window opened the old directory. Refer people to the MIME-Editor application instead. Fixed focussing problems in Icons View. -- Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net ta...@ec... ta...@us...

> Last chance to update translations / report serious bugs! An old bug that is still annoying me (can't test those snapshots on my current machine, though): When closing a directory that is mounted somewhere (for example, a rox-filer browsing a mounted CD-ROM), the "Do you want to unount..." dialog is always appearing under any other window. Which is quite disturbing. I'm using the latest sawfish and ROX-Filer 1.3.9, any idea? -- Larry Cow |

Works fine for me, and it's not doing anything special. Did you tell sawfish to keep filer windows above other windows or anything like that? -- Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net ta...@ec... ta...@us...
