* Features or problems - Quick, Quick, Quick: Use slang instead of ncurses. - Add a better automunt feature - Move fast and then quick view doesn't update the quick view. - Let the user specify the intensity of the colors in the color config. - Add a filter to the view command, so you actually view the output of a command (strings is my favorite, grep, locate, sed). - Add an option that will let listboxes do incremental searches. - Save which panel is active. - Center all the titles. - Regexp copy/rename/move/etc. - Set a standard for the regexps. - name_trunc all the filenames that could go out in a query dialog box. - Should name trunc clean the file names? - Add a send_yes_event manager to the normal input boxes. Have an option for the input line to have some scroller marks. - Run under X-Window as an X-client. - Drawing of the dialog window must be done inside a dialog callback, not in an init procedure. - In the incremental search mode, when backspacing, select the correct file, do not stop in current file. - Add context sensitive help to the f9 menus. - Add support for transparent FTP - Add archive/tar/gz This requires to add the virtual layer of file managing functions. - Add terminal-dependent key configuration (as a terminfo extension) for users without root privileges (or to avoid terminfo modifications). See also the TERMINFO environment variable in the NCurses man page. - Add option to copy and move without asking. - Fix the terminfo databases. - Make C-y yank back all the killed text at once if you've just done several kill operations in a row (C-k, M-d, etc). [For MC 3.x] - Make the Black & White / Colour config option work. * Optimizations and cleanup - Add an overlap when going up or down. - Switch to the S-Lang screen manager. - In the user menu, don't use the entries array, we can now grow dynamically. I should take a look at this one day. - Have an option to let the user choose the preferred keybindings. Currently, only the emacs keybindings are supported, add support for Norton Commander and vi keybindings. - Find command should have a way to specify directories to skip. * Make a nice binary distribution - Including all the necesary terminfo databases compiled for different machines, as well as xterm_color for different machines. * Ongoing Projects This is a list of the developers who are working on a specific part of the midnight commander. If you are interested in working in a specific part of the program, please send a message to miguel@roxanne.nuclecu.unam.mx in order to coordinate who is working on what. ** Janne Tree stuff, layout code, general hacker. ** Radek Chmod, chown commands using the dialog manager. ** Miguel provide a new input_dialog based on the dialog manager code. Random things from the TODO list. Bug fixing. ** Alessandro Misc changes to the input handling mechanism in key.c to use gpm-xterm.c instead of the current #ifdefed code we have in mi_getch. ** Fred File managing improvements, acting over directories. ** Dugan The subshell management code. Random bug fixes, optimisations, and many (many!) bug reports. Local variables: mode: outline outline-regexp: " *[-+*.] \\| " eval: (hide-body) End:
