- Krusader CVSNEWS
|
|
- http://www.krusader.org/text.php?t=CVSNEWS
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
- This file is only intended for krusader-cvs.
|
|
- It should contain a brief description of new features. In some way an
|
|
- extension to the ChangeLog.
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
UserActions: Expander: Many fixes, better error handling, sensible
|
|
%_Each&-handling. Finally I managed to implement Jiri's 100k patch for
|
|
the useractions. This patch handles the Each-placeholder much better
|
|
(i.e. allows Each inside Copy and can deal with multiple Each's) and
|
|
provides a good base for future extensions. Thanks a lot!
|
|
|
|
New feature: atomic extension.
|
|
- Extensions known to be atomic (like tar.gz) are now handled properly
|
|
both in the panel and during rename. The list of atomic extensions
|
|
can be provided through "Atomic Extensions" in [Look&Feel] in
|
|
krusaderrc.
|
|
|
|
New feature: rename just the filename, without extension
|
|
- in the look&feel page, disable "rename selects extension", and then,
|
|
when you rename a file, only the filename will be selected, but not
|
|
the extension
|
|
|
|
New feature: full screen terminal (mc style)
|
|
- if enabled in look&feel, pressing the required shortcut to show
|
|
the terminal emulator will hide all of krusader, just like midnight
|
|
commander.
|
|
|
|
New feature: right click menu for bookmarks
|
|
- after right clicking on a bookmark, a popup menu appears with
|
|
|
|
Open
|
|
Open in new tab
|
|
Delete
|
|
|
|
menu items.
|
|
|
|
New feature: enable/disable the special bookmarks
|
|
- right click on a special bookmark
|
|
(Popular URLs, Devices, Local Network, Virtual Filesystem, Jumb
|
|
back, Set jump back, Bookmark Current or Manage Bookmarks)
|
|
- a new rightclick menu appears containing the special bookmark items
|
|
if a menu item is checked then the bookmark is enabled
|
|
- one can enable/disable separately the following special bookmarks
|
|
- the "Popular URLs" bookmark
|
|
- the "Devices" bookmark
|
|
- the "Local Network" bookmark
|
|
- the "Virtual Filesystem"
|
|
- the "Jump back" and "Set jump back" bookmarks
|
|
|
|
New feature: keeping the directory structure of copying/moving from
|
|
virtual folders
|
|
- assume we have 3 URL-s in a virtual subfolder
|
|
/home/myhome/mydir1/myfile1
|
|
/home/myhome/mydir1/myfile2
|
|
/home/myhome/mydir2/myfile3
|
|
- in the destination folder we would like to get:
|
|
mydir1/myfile1
|
|
mydir1/myfile2
|
|
mydir2/myfile3
|
|
- Just press F5 for copy (dialog appears)
|
|
source MUST be a virtual subfolder!
|
|
target MUST NOT be a virtual folder!
|
|
- in the dialog, there's a new option:
|
|
"Keep virtual directory structure"
|
|
- check it
|
|
- select /home/myhome/ for base URL
|
|
- start the copy / move
|
|
|
|
- AND: the directory structure will be kept at copying!
|
|
that's it! :-)
|
|
|
|
New option in look&feel: directories are always sorted by name
|
|
|
|
Big cleanup in the UserAction module:
|
|
- dropped support of "same_as"-attribute in the description-tag
|
|
- dropped need for a manual name-conflict-resolution, now a nummer is
|
|
append on double names
|
|
- reduced the memory-consumption drasticly due to internal changes
|
|
- added copy actions to clipboard / past actions from clipboard
|
|
- multiselection for export/remove/copy
|
|
- renamed the actionfile we provide to useraction_examples.xml,
|
|
so that we can merge new examples with existing installations
|
|
- on export one can now choose between overwrite and merge is the
|
|
file already exists and contains useractions
|
|
- Actions are now manages with ActionMan; the list is now a
|
|
categorized tree with icon and title instead of the identifyer.
|
|
- On the UserAction page in Konfigurator you can now change the
|
|
Terminal for UserActions and the font for the output-collection.
|
|
|
|
New archive handling:
|
|
supports passworded arj, ace, rar, zip
|
|
step into hidden archives by pressing <RIGHT> on the archive
|
|
decompressing debian packages by Alt+U
|
|
using KWallet to store the passwords
|
|
writes out the error messages of the archiver
|
|
archive type autodetection by its header (first 512 byte)
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------- 1.70.0 --------------------------------
|
|
|
|
New global calculate space function:
|
|
Used to calculate occupied space inside archives remote FS and in
|
|
virtual VFS need KDE >= 3.3
|
|
for local FS the old (and faster) code is still used.
|
|
|
|
New zip/tar slave - based on KDE's but support writing to archive
|
|
Modified KDE tar slave (which also handle ZIP archives) to support
|
|
writing. Compared to kr_arc:
|
|
Pros: Speed. No need for external binary. Speed. did I mentioned
|
|
speed?
|
|
Cons: does not support delete from archive.
|
|
(You need to change the protocol registration to use this slave)
|
|
|
|
New configure-switches:
|
|
--without-konqueror - builds Krusader without Konqueror's servicemenus
|
|
--without-javascript - builds Krusader without JS support
|
|
In the past the support was always compiled in when the headers where
|
|
found.
|
|
|
|
Jump-Back:
|
|
If you create a new tab the startup-path is saved. You can now step
|
|
deep into the dir-tree and Ctrl-J brings you back to your starting
|
|
position. It's also possible to set the current directory manually as
|
|
Jump-Back-Point.
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------- 1.60.0 --------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Useraction: new placeholder: %_ListFile()%
|
|
is replaced by path/filename of a temporary file containing a list of
|
|
items usefull for external scripts
|
|
|
|
Custom Selection Mode
|
|
|
|
Popular Links - krusader's answer to google-ranking :-)
|
|
In the bookmarks menu, you'll see a new submenu called "popular urls"
|
|
From now on, krusader keeps track of every url you visit (also remote)
|
|
and keeps a ranking for every url. the more you visit the url, the
|
|
higher the ranking. clicking the popular links menu displays the top
|
|
15 links sorted by popularity. the top is the most popular. this is
|
|
easy for when u need to visit urls often, but don't want to create a
|
|
bookmark. this is also a better "history" since unlike the 'history'
|
|
button, this ranking accumulates urls from all tabs.
|
|
|
|
also use the two-enter dialog:
|
|
* open it
|
|
(ctrl-z or bookmarks->popular urls->popular urls(bottom of list))
|
|
* type few letter to narrow the search
|
|
* hit enter (you'll go to the url list)
|
|
* hit enter again and the panel is refreshed!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Virtual VFS.
|
|
This is not a virtual folder !
|
|
but more a container for URL's from different file system.
|
|
just perfect for displaying search results and so on...
|
|
Action you perform on the files in this VFS are performed on the
|
|
'real' files. you don't just delete files from the VFS - you delete
|
|
them from your hard drive.
|
|
limitations:: you can't create directories inside a virtual VFS.
|
|
|
|
Primitive scripting support.
|
|
condition: KJSEmbed is installed (package: KDEbindings)
|
|
Ctrl+Alt+J opens the JavaScript-console. There you can play around:
|
|
try 'Krusader.setCaption("Hey Ho, Let's go!");',
|
|
"Krusader.children();", "Krusader.child("help").slots();",
|
|
"alert(Krusader.properties())" and "Krusader.child("help").show();"...
|
|
In addition a new placeholder for the useraction,
|
|
%_Script(path/to/script.js)% executes an external file.
|
|
If the path is relative the file will be read from
|
|
<KDE-app-data>/krusader/js/
|
|
If a UserAction should execute the return of a script, set the second
|
|
parameter of %_Script()% to "return=cmd".
|
|
In this case the Variable 'cmd' will be read.
|
|
additional the second parameter can be used to pass variables to the
|
|
script:
|
|
"return=lala;foo=bar". here the variable foo will have at the
|
|
beginning of the execution the value 'bar' and the return-variable is
|
|
called lala instead of cmd. Warning: very alpha!!
|
|
|
|
krusader has now a new toolbar: actions toolbar. you can show/hide it
|
|
using the view menu --> show actions toolbar. useful to put actions (and
|
|
later bookmarks), put in as a side toolbar with small icons. __you'll
|
|
have to overwrite krusaderui.rc__
|
|
|
|
color scheme can now be imported/exported. reacable in the colors page
|
|
in konfigurator
|
|
|
|
disk usage (tools menu + 3rd panel)
|
|
|
|
changing the coloumns by right clicking on the panel's header
|
|
|
|
Refresh-in-the-background: from now on, reading a remote url or
|
|
the contents of an archive is done in the background. this means
|
|
that krusader remains responsive and can be used to do whatever you need
|
|
in any other panel or tab.
|
|
|
|
useraction:new placeholder %_PanelSize%
|
|
This placeholder can change the ration between the two panels.
|
|
%aPanelSize("80")% makes the active panel use 80% of krusader's width
|
|
(height in vertical-mode)
|
|
ommiting the parameter means 50%
|
|
|
|
useraction: new placeholder: %_Each%
|
|
This placeholder splitts the commandline into a list where
|
|
%_Each(...)% is replaced by one
|
|
list-item (all, all files, all dirs, all selected). These commands are
|
|
executed one after another.
|
|
|
|
Full viewer in the 3rd hand (thanks to illissius)
|
|
|
|
Shift-DEL will delete a file and not move it to the trash as DEL does.
|
|
(total commander like)
|
|
|
|
Import/Export keyboard shortcuts from/to a file. want krusader to become
|
|
total commander in a single click? no problem!
|
|
|
|
Mouse selection modes is back! check out the Look'N'Feel section
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------- 1.51 ----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The long awaited feature: Fn keys can be changed to different shortcuts
|
|
|
|
Total-commander refresh: when krusader isn't focused, it is not refreshed
|
|
at all.
|
|
|
|
Pressing ctrl-up arrow from the panel, jumps to the origin bar
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------- 1.50 ----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Human-readable file sizes is implemented (located in look&feel->panel)
|
|
|
|
From now on, Konqueror's right click menu is imported to Krusader
|
|
|
|
Cut (ctrl+x), Copy (ctrl+c) and Paste (ctrl+v)
|
|
are available. They even work with Konqueror. Please test it.
|
|
|
|
Compare by content: you can now either:
|
|
- select (mark) one file in the left panel, and one in the right panel
|
|
- select exactly two files in the active panel
|
|
- make sure there is a file in the other panel with the same name as
|
|
the current file in the active panel
|
|
|
|
Panel profiles: now it is possible to store environment profiles.
|
|
An environment profile contains the following:
|
|
- all the tabs path (left / right)
|
|
- the current tab (left / right)
|
|
- and the selected side (left or right)
|
|
You can save / restore these tabulator profiles. Please test it.
|
|
|
|
Those users who use the CVS version of Krusader, should delete the
|
|
krusaderui.rc from their home directory, to make the new menu and
|
|
toolbar items visible.
|
|
(rm ~/.kde/share/apps/krusader/krusaderui.rc)
|
|
|
|
Synchronizer: now you can use the search filters in the synchronizer
|
|
|
|
Useraction: removed placeholder 'Bookmark'. It is deprecated now since
|
|
the new bookmark-system can be accessed directly like a user action. If
|
|
you need it anyway, use 'Goto' instead.
|
|
|
|
TC like searching: if you type 'text' -> results the same as '*text*'
|
|
You can exclude files from the search with '|'
|
|
(ex. '*.cpp *.h | *.moc.cpp' )
|
|
|
|
Search is possible on remote file systems as well.
|
|
|
|
If you have filesystems that you don't want to accidentally unmount (or
|
|
mount), just go to Konfigurator->Advanced, and enter a list of mount
|
|
points separated by commas, for example: /, /boot, /tmp) and mountman
|
|
won't try to (un)mount them.
|
|
|
|
Mountman got a big nose-job ;-) please test it well.
|
|
|
|
You can now drag'n'drop to the new tree view
|
|
|
|
Shift+left/right changes tabs (thanks to Dmitry Suzdalev)
|
|
|
|
New vfs_refresh() function only updates changes when you re-read a panel
|
|
and changes the content without the annoying full redraw effect.
|
|
|
|
When closing Krusader, the tabs are saved and restored
|
|
|
|
Synchronizer profiles:
|
|
Krusader handles synchronizer profiles. In synchronizer press
|
|
the 'profile' button, and you'll be able to add / load / save / remove
|
|
synchronizer profiles.
|
|
|
|
Synchronize with Kget:
|
|
If you want to synchronize a local directory with an unstable ftp
|
|
server, Kget is a much better solution than simple file copying. After
|
|
comparing you may right click on the result list and select
|
|
'Synchronize with kget' to execute the synchronization, after that the
|
|
listed files will be downloaded with kget instead of Krusader.
|
|
|
|
Dropping URLs onto the status / totals line:
|
|
If a directory contains a lot of subdirectories, it may not be
|
|
possible to drop the URL onto the panel (on which only directories are
|
|
visible). Now the URL can be dropped onto the status / totals line
|
|
instead.
|
|
|
|
Sync-browsing:
|
|
With a little toggle-button in the panel-level toolbar the SyncBrowse
|
|
mode is activated/deactivated.
|
|
When active, each directory change in the specific panel is performed
|
|
in the other panel also.
|
|
|
|
User-Actions:
|
|
With the user action system the user can make his own actions on files
|
|
in the panel or access Krusader internal functions with parameters
|
|
directly using the placeholder.
|
|
The actions integrate seamless into KDE's action-system, so the
|
|
standard edit-toolbar/shortcut-dialogs can show/manipulate the user
|
|
actions, too. The user actions are stored in
|
|
~/.kde/share/apps/krusader/useraction.xml (the file-structure is
|
|
documented in doxygen-headers of UserActionXML) User Actions can be
|
|
edited/added/im-/exported using a new Konfigurator module (although I
|
|
plan to move all action-related to a new ActionMan. For more info, see
|
|
http://www.jonas-baehr.de/forum/Krusader-ideas.txt)
|
|
Currently, these placeholder are implemented (for details see
|
|
UserAction/expander.cpp or doxygen):
|
|
Path replaced by the panels path
|
|
Count replaced by the number of <first parameter>
|
|
Filter replaced by the panels filter-mask
|
|
Current replaced by the current item
|
|
List replaced by a list of all <first paremeter>
|
|
Select manipulates the selection in a panel
|
|
Goto changes the panels's path to <first parameter>
|
|
Ask asks the user for a some text and is replaced by the
|
|
answer
|
|
Clipboard manipulates the clipboard
|
|
Copy copies a file, useful for quick, local, backups
|
|
Sync opens the Synchronizer with a given profile
|
|
NewSearch opens the search-windows with a given profile
|
|
Profile loads a given panel-profile
|
|
|
|
A GUI-based helper for placeholder-adding is provided.
|
|
In Path, Current and List spaces are per default automaticly escaped.
|
