ROX-Filer 1.3.2 is out! Get it here: (source and Linux-x86 binary archive= s at present): http://rox.sf.net/rox_download.php3 This is mainly a bug-fix release. Packagers: note that Gtk+-2.0.1 is now required. Changes since 1.3.1: - Added 'Text beside icon' toolbar style (Michael Adams). - Require version 2.0.1 or later of Gtk, due to bugs in 2.0.0. - Move Xterm Here to Window menu and add Switch to xterm (suggested by Gregory Spath). - When installing without a manpage, just warn the user instead of aborting (suggested by Simon Britnell). - Code tidying (Bernard Jungen). - Option to switch automatically between Large and Small icons (Stephen Watson). - Better error messages when using a program to set the backdrop. - Updated Spanish translation (Marcelo Ramos). - Updated French translation (Vincent Lef=E8vre). Bugs: - Since Gtk+-2.0.4, the SOAP message sent to a running process got displayed instead of being acted upon. This could also cause the existing filer to crash. - Using another window in between entering target mode and selecting the target printed a warning instead of performing the operation. - Fix problem with root menu positioning on icewm (reported by Bernard Jungen). - Changing the pinboard font now realigns the icons. - Symlinked items in the SendTo menu didn't use globicons correctly (spotted by Arnaud Calvo). - Filer sometimes failed to load the backdrop supplied by a program (reported by Arnaud Calvo). - Some shortcuts didn't work properly on some keyboards (reported by Lorint and Musus Umbra). - Allow blank icon names (suggested by Gregory Spath). - Default icon for iconified windows wasn't found (Jimmy Olgeni). Plus lots of internal changes. Watch out for new bugs! Have fun, --=20 Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net ta...@ec... ta...@us... |

In a word, this version of ROX is sexy. Thanks for the continued effort, Thomas. One observation which may be glib-2.0.4 specific: When changing the Foreground/Background colors via the Options->Pinboard menu, I frequently see this glib messasge on the console: (ROX-Filer:29717): GLib-CRITICAL **: file ghash.c: line 554 (g_hash_table_foreach): assertion `hash_table != NULL' failed glib booboo or ROX booboo? Second observation, ROX + icewm 1.0.9: With ROX 1.2.0 it was possible to move pinboard icons around using the middle mouse button (I found this more convenient than button 1). Did this behaviour in fact go away in 1.3.x or is there an option somewhere that I haven't found? :) Cheers & thanks again. krjw. |

Ah. ROX bug. If you're not showing iconified windows, then trying to update their colours produces a (harmless) warning. Thanks! -- Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net ta...@ec... ta...@us... |

(even though I'm still on old rox 1.2 :) Actually, I just discovered that I like this behavior even when opening files (ie, many times I'll download, say, a pdf, open the download location quickly with a pinboard or bookmark, and then '/nameof.pdf' to highlight it, then launch.) It would be cool if the window could be closed in this type situation too. -- Gregory Spath gs...@fr... AIM: 'fr33f411' |

ROX-Filer 1.3.3 is out! Get it here: (source and Linux-x86 binary archives at present): http://rox.sf.net/rox_download.php3 Changes since 1.3.2: - Updated to new shared MIME database format. You'll need to download the new MIME package (release 0.8): http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info.html - Alt-Return or Alt-Button-1 on a file works like clicking with button-2; it opens a directory in a new window and closes the directory when opening a file (suggested by Gregory Spath). - Use stock icons for toolbar, to make it themeable (requested by Michael Adams). - Made the stepper arrows in the scrollbars scroll by one item's height, fixed an untranslatable string and fixed a slight error in the size calculation (Bernard Jungen). - Rearraged File menu (suggested by Tomas Berg). - Added support for Solaris 'Door' files (Stephen Watson). - Added Help menu with both About and Show Files entries, and a new entry to load the corrent manual for the current locale (suggested by Arnaud Calvo). - The Info box for an application now has a new 'Show Help Files' button (Geoff Youngs). - Updated French manual translation (Arnaud Calvo). - Don't close the Set Run Action box after showing the usage message if the user enters an invalid command (spotted by krjw). - Changing the pinboard colours when iconfied windows were not in use displayed a (harmless) warning message (reported by krjw). - Set Run Action to a shell command would make the executable world-writeable (spotted by alexander). - Tooltips for files sometimes didn't get displayed. - Added reminder about having NumLock on when using groups from the keypad (suggested by Gombok Arthur). - Turned on more compiler warnings, and fixed some minor issues it threw up. Enjoy! -- Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net ta...@ec... ta...@us... |
