hi, !! only a curiosity remark/ fun fact type a post, probably nothing practical !! along the year since posting, I found some programs, as my terminal, are updating their cwd paths if changing it with another program. I searched, I found a way doing a c program managing to get the changed path name, using the description in openat manual page: • the file descriptor is a stable reference to the directory, ** even if the directory is renamed**; it goes with file descriptor, and with finding that while...
Hello, sorry for tardy answer. Font rendering Xft, utf8 encoding.
Clock Bar: very useful if it has an option to show: | bank number | bank label |
It is nice to have tooltips popup. After a while however (when the tooltips are read several times), we usually find that there is no need to have it turned "on" at all time, because it also blocks the view of the buttons bar. Suggestion: it would be nice to have a config option to switch the tooltip popup feature "on" and "off".

The current implementation was never really optimized for viewing large files and instead wastes a lot of memory for character lookup tables for faster preview. It can use 10 times the size of the file to view so it can crash on large files if not enough memory is available, or the system slow due to swapping. I will look into improving the memory usage.

Ralf Thank you for your emails and most of all thank you for the latest version of workerfm. I'm really looking forward to using it (currently upgrading my distro).

Copy Filename to Clipboard
In version 4.12.0 I have improved the copy functions so ctrl-c/v works besides middle mouse paste. If you want to have parts of the file name copied to the clipboard, you can use the command "Copy string to clipboard" which can also use flags to use the file name without extension, for example.
Yes, this can be really misleading. I will add a dialog asking to continue, skip or cancel to make this more clear. I will also show a dialog at the end listing all elements that could not be copied correctly. I think updating the directory is not possible since a rename cannot (easily) detected so it is unclear what the new name would be. And such an error can also happen if a file or directory is renamed during the copy process.

hi, I was wondering... so I downloaded a copy with the command suggested its much cleaner than my attempts... my version was downloading the entire website -without me wanting-.... I made an archive with it, things I did : - inlined .css so it is there, without having to find a file - changed menu to contain only documentation relevant entries + since the files were changed, - deleted .asc signatures files - removed signature link in end of page - did check links attached is worker_documentation_202209.tar.xz...
You can download the documentation easily with wget: wget -r -k -np http://www.boomerangsworld.de/cms/worker/documentation.html -I cms/worker/documentation There are currently no plans to make the documentation available in other formats, the maintenance effort would be higher than the potential benefits.

Do you use Xft or X11 font rendering? You can check in the About menu in the top left button, check the line "Font engine". The recommended engine is Xft. Also, are you using an utf8 environment or some specific encoding?
I do not use any custom cursors but rely on standard X11 definitions which are usually replaced with the user selected themes by the desktop environment. My guess is that the cursor themes are not applied to X11 applications in Wayland environments in Plasma. I not aware of anything I can do here. It should affect other X11 applications too.
I was going to add my support for this request then I realised that I was the original poster.

Thank you!
This text is actually a left-over from a fix almost 20 (!) years ago :-) Since then the arguments are always quoted and this option has been removed. There is actually a yet undocumented feature of flag replacement to disable quoting by prepending a dash at the flag name, but this still won't help for your case since you need correct recursive quoting which is not supported.
Yes, TMPDIR must be absolute. While testing I also noticed that it won't work either if TMPDIR contains spaces or other special characters. This will be fixed in the next release.
I've tried. The approach with /bin/sh worked flawlessly. The approach with TMPDIR worked too, but only after changing the relative path (with ~/) in TMPDIR to the absolute one. Is it a feature?
Thank you again! I'll try both these ways.
First of all, you can use the env variable TMPDIR to point it to some other directory. The fix in version 3.2 apparently works for external programs not run in a terminal, but not when the terminal is used. I'm not sure it actually worked at that time or if I made some other changes later on which broke it again. Anyway, if you use "xterm -e /bin/sh %s" as a terminal command, it will work even for noexec tmp dirs. I think I will make such a change for the default terminal program for future rele...
hi so I did a button + an external script to quotes those filenames while doing the button I did a script, and found the script "settings" panel mention an "With quotes" option that isn't there. attached is an image of the setting panel showing the "With quotes" option mention. thanks

While the issue itself is resolved, I would like to ask: is there a possibility to preserve noexec option for /tmp and in the same time to use the functionality of terminal commands? I tried to make /tmp/worker-USER a soft link to ~/worker-USER and got the error "/tmp/worker-USER is not a directory" (Worker refused to launch). I found that "fix" in the changelog for 2013-11: "fixed external command execution if the tmp directory is mounted with NOEXEC option" https://sourceforge.net/p/workerfm/mailman/workerfm-users/?viewmonth=201311...
Can you check if /tmp (or $TMPDIR if set) is mounted so that files cannot be executed (noexec flag)? That could explain the behavior. Exactly! I looked in /etc/fstab and found noexec there, for /tmp. After removing it, everything works as expected. Thank you very much, Ralf!
Can you check if /tmp (or $TMPDIR if set) is mounted so that files cannot be executed (noexec flag)? That could explain the behavior. Also, try setting the option "Terminal returns early" in terminal program settings section. Then use the test command with "run in terminal and wait for key". It probably won't work, but the tmp files should still be lying around in /tmp/worker-$USER/... If so, you can try if running "xterm -e /tmp/worker-$USER/..." actually runs or if there is some error message.
Terminal commands do work in other programs (I checked in fbpanel).
