[SD4L-devel] Next version of SD4L

[Hans-Ulrich J. <han...@t-...>]

Hello,

I'm preparing for SD4L 0.9 which, hopefully, will be
released in the end of march. I've already added the
following features:

* Internationalization with a german translation
   The language is chosen from the locale but may
   be overwritten by configuration.

* An option -i/-info for the command line utility sdmount
   to print information on mounted containers like that
   displayed by the GUI.

* An option -a/-all for the command line utility sdumount
   to unmount all mounted containers owned by the user.

* Bookmarks for the GUI which enable fast switching between
   up to 9 preconfigured pairs of container and mount point
   by the hotkeys Ctrl+1 to Ctrl+9.

In addition, I consider two more features:

* The mount option "utf8" for containers with vfat file
   system if the locale suggests that. This should help
   in conversion of non ascii characters in file names.

* The possibility for "brutal" unmounting of containers
   if files or directories within the container are still
   in use. For this I'm not yet decided wether to add a
   button or checkbox or merely to pop up a message box
   when normal unmounting fails.

I would like to have some other opinions on this feature
list. Moreover, let me know of any concerns regarding the
stability which might be fixed in the course of the release.

Regards,
Ulrich
