- Krusader SVNNEWS
3
------------------------------------------------------------------------
4
- This file is only intended for krusader-svn.
5
- It should contain a brief description of new features. In some way an
6
- extension to the ChangeLog.
7
------------------------------------------------------------------------
8
9
New feature: Krusader is able to send e-mails by thunderbird
10
- one can set up thunderbird as an e-mail sender in the dependencies
11
- from now more than one file can be sent in an attachment
12
13
New feature: for content searching (searcher, advanced selection,
14
synchronizer), the content encoding can be given.
15
16
New feature: select remote encoding for krarc
17
- the file name encoding for zip, rar, arj, lha can be set from now
18
- as 7z always uses UTF-16, remote encoding will not work for 7z
19
- it's imporant because zip files that were created on Windows can
20
have different encoding
21
22
New feature: new synchronizer shortcuts
23
- CTRL + W : reverse direction
24
- ALT + Down : exclude
25
- ALT + Up : restore original task
26
- ALT + Left : copy to left
27
- ALT + Right : copy to right
28
- ALT + Delete : mark for delete
29
30
UserActions: Expander: Many fixes, better error handling, sensible
31
%_Each&-handling. Finally I managed to implement Jiri's 100k patch for
32
the useractions. This patch handles the Each-placeholder much better
33
(i.e. allows Each inside Copy and can deal with multiple Each's) and
34
provides a good base for future extensions. Thanks a lot!
35
36
New feature: atomic extension.
37
- Extensions known to be atomic (like tar.gz) are now handled properly
38
both in the panel and during rename. The list of atomic extensions
39
can be provided through "Atomic Extensions" in [Look&Feel] in
40
krusaderrc.
41
42
New feature: rename just the filename, without extension
43
- in the look&feel page, disable "rename selects extension", and then,
44
when you rename a file, only the filename will be selected, but not
45
the extension
46
47
New feature: full screen terminal (mc style)
48
- if enabled in look&feel, pressing the required shortcut to show
49
the terminal emulator will hide all of krusader, just like midnight
50
commander.
51
52
New feature: right click menu for bookmarks
53
- after right clicking on a bookmark, a popup menu appears with
54
55
Open
56
Open in new tab
57
Delete
58
59
menu items.
60
61
New feature: enable/disable the special bookmarks
62
- right click on a special bookmark
63
(Popular URLs, Devices, Local Network, Virtual Filesystem, Jumb
64
back, Set jump back, Bookmark Current or Manage Bookmarks)
65
- a new rightclick menu appears containing the special bookmark items
66
if a menu item is checked then the bookmark is enabled
67
- one can enable/disable separately the following special bookmarks
68
- the "Popular URLs" bookmark
69
- the "Devices" bookmark
70
- the "Local Network" bookmark
71
- the "Virtual Filesystem"
72
- the "Jump back" and "Set jump back" bookmarks
73
74
New feature: keeping the directory structure of copying/moving from
75
virtual folders
76
- assume we have 3 URL-s in a virtual subfolder
77
/home/myhome/mydir1/myfile1
78
/home/myhome/mydir1/myfile2
79
/home/myhome/mydir2/myfile3
80
- in the destination folder we would like to get:
81
mydir1/myfile1
82
mydir1/myfile2
83
mydir2/myfile3
84
- Just press F5 for copy (dialog appears)
85
source MUST be a virtual subfolder!
86
target MUST NOT be a virtual folder!
87
- in the dialog, there's a new option:
88
"Keep virtual directory structure"
89
- check it
90
- select /home/myhome/ for base URL
91
- start the copy / move
92
93
- AND: the directory structure will be kept at copying!
94
that's it! :-)
95
96
New option in look&feel: directories are always sorted by name
97
98
Big cleanup in the UserAction module:
99
- dropped support of "same_as"-attribute in the description-tag
100
- dropped need for a manual name-conflict-resolution, now a nummer is
101
append on double names
102
- reduced the memory-consumption drasticly due to internal changes
103
- added copy actions to clipboard / past actions from clipboard
104
- multiselection for export/remove/copy
105
- renamed the actionfile we provide to useraction_examples.xml,
106
so that we can merge new examples with existing installations
107
- on export one can now choose between overwrite and merge is the
108
file already exists and contains useractions
109
- Actions are now manages with ActionMan; the list is now a
110
categorized tree with icon and title instead of the identifyer.
111
- On the UserAction page in Konfigurator you can now change the
112
Terminal for UserActions and the font for the output-collection.
113
114
New archive handling:
115
supports passworded arj, ace, rar, zip
116
step into hidden archives by pressing <RIGHT> on the archive
117
decompressing debian packages by Alt+U
118
using KWallet to store the passwords
119
writes out the error messages of the archiver
120
archive type autodetection by its header (first 512 byte)
121
122
-------------------------------- 1.70.0 --------------------------------
123
124
New global calculate space function:
125
Used to calculate occupied space inside archives remote FS and in
126
virtual VFS need KDE >= 3.3
127
for local FS the old (and faster) code is still used.
128
129
New zip/tar slave - based on KDE's but support writing to archive
130
Modified KDE tar slave (which also handle ZIP archives) to support
131
writing. Compared to kr_arc:
132
Pros: Speed. No need for external binary. Speed. did I mentioned
133
speed?
134
Cons: does not support delete from archive.
135
(You need to change the protocol registration to use this slave)
136
137
New configure-switches:
138
--without-konqueror - builds Krusader without Konqueror's servicemenus
139
--without-javascript - builds Krusader without JS support
140
In the past the support was always compiled in when the headers where
141
found.
142
143
Jump-Back:
144
If you create a new tab the startup-path is saved. You can now step
145
deep into the dir-tree and Ctrl-J brings you back to your starting
146
position. It's also possible to set the current directory manually as
147
Jump-Back-Point.
148
149
-------------------------------- 1.60.0 --------------------------------
150
151
Useraction: new placeholder: %_ListFile()%
152
is replaced by path/filename of a temporary file containing a list of
153
items usefull for external scripts
154
155
Custom Selection Mode
156
157
Popular Links - krusader's answer to google-ranking :-)
158
In the bookmarks menu, you'll see a new submenu called "popular urls"
159
From now on, krusader keeps track of every url you visit (also remote)
160
and keeps a ranking for every url. the more you visit the url, the
161
higher the ranking. clicking the popular links menu displays the top
162
15 links sorted by popularity. the top is the most popular. this is
163
easy for when u need to visit urls often, but don't want to create a
164
bookmark. this is also a better "history" since unlike the 'history'
165
button, this ranking accumulates urls from all tabs.
166
167
also use the two-enter dialog:
168
* open it
169
(ctrl-z or bookmarks->popular urls->popular urls(bottom of list))
170
* type few letter to narrow the search
171
* hit enter (you'll go to the url list)
172
* hit enter again and the panel is refreshed!
173
174
175
Virtual VFS.
176
This is not a virtual folder !
177
but more a container for URL's from different file system.
178
just perfect for displaying search results and so on...
179
Action you perform on the files in this VFS are performed on the
180
'real' files. you don't just delete files from the VFS - you delete
181
them from your hard drive.
182
limitations:: you can't create directories inside a virtual VFS.
183
184
Primitive scripting support.
185
condition: KJSEmbed is installed (package: KDEbindings)
186
Ctrl+Alt+J opens the JavaScript-console. There you can play around:
187
try 'Krusader.setCaption("Hey Ho, Let's go!");',
188
"Krusader.children();", "Krusader.child("help").slots();",
189
"alert(Krusader.properties())" and "Krusader.child("help").show();"...
190
In addition a new placeholder for the useraction,
191
%_Script(path/to/script.js)% executes an external file.
192
If the path is relative the file will be read from
193
<KDE-app-data>/krusader/js/
194
If a UserAction should execute the return of a script, set the second
195
parameter of %_Script()% to "return=cmd".
196
In this case the Variable 'cmd' will be read.
197
additional the second parameter can be used to pass variables to the
198
script:
199
"return=lala;foo=bar". here the variable foo will have at the
200
beginning of the execution the value 'bar' and the return-variable is
201
called lala instead of cmd. Warning: very alpha!!
202
203
krusader has now a new toolbar: actions toolbar. you can show/hide it
204
using the view menu --> show actions toolbar. useful to put actions (and
205
later bookmarks), put in as a side toolbar with small icons. __you'll
206
have to overwrite krusaderui.rc__
207
208
color scheme can now be imported/exported. reacable in the colors page
209
in konfigurator
210
211
disk usage (tools menu + 3rd panel)
212
213
changing the coloumns by right clicking on the panel's header
214
215
Refresh-in-the-background: from now on, reading a remote url or
216
the contents of an archive is done in the background. this means
217
that krusader remains responsive and can be used to do whatever you need
218
in any other panel or tab.
219
220
useraction:new placeholder %_PanelSize%
221
This placeholder can change the ration between the two panels.
222
%aPanelSize("80")% makes the active panel use 80% of krusader's width
223
(height in vertical-mode)
224
ommiting the parameter means 50%
225
226
useraction: new placeholder: %_Each%
227
This placeholder splitts the commandline into a list where
228
%_Each(...)% is replaced by one
229
list-item (all, all files, all dirs, all selected). These commands are
230
executed one after another.
231
232
Full viewer in the 3rd hand (thanks to illissius)
233
234
Shift-DEL will delete a file and not move it to the trash as DEL does.
235
(total commander like)
236
237
Import/Export keyboard shortcuts from/to a file. want krusader to become
238
total commander in a single click? no problem!
239
240
Mouse selection modes is back! check out the Look'N'Feel section
241
242
-------------------------------- 1.51 ----------------------------------
243
244
The long awaited feature: Fn keys can be changed to different shortcuts
245
246
Total-commander refresh: when krusader isn't focused, it is not refreshed
247
at all.
248
249
Pressing ctrl-up arrow from the panel, jumps to the origin bar
250
251
-------------------------------- 1.50 ----------------------------------
252
253
Human-readable file sizes is implemented (located in look&feel->panel)
254
255
From now on, Konqueror's right click menu is imported to Krusader
256
257
Cut (ctrl+x), Copy (ctrl+c) and Paste (ctrl+v)
258
are available. They even work with Konqueror. Please test it.
259
260
Compare by content: you can now either:
261
- select (mark) one file in the left panel, and one in the right panel
262
- select exactly two files in the active panel
263
- make sure there is a file in the other panel with the same name as
264
the current file in the active panel
265
266
Panel profiles: now it is possible to store environment profiles.
267
An environment profile contains the following:
268
- all the tabs path (left / right)
269
- the current tab (left / right)
270
- and the selected side (left or right)
271
You can save / restore these tabulator profiles. Please test it.
272
273
Those users who use the CVS version of Krusader, should delete the
274
krusaderui.rc from their home directory, to make the new menu and
275
toolbar items visible.
276
(rm ~/.kde/share/apps/krusader/krusaderui.rc)
277
278
Synchronizer: now you can use the search filters in the synchronizer
279
280
Useraction: removed placeholder 'Bookmark'. It is deprecated now since
281
the new bookmark-system can be accessed directly like a user action. If
282
you need it anyway, use 'Goto' instead.
283
284
TC like searching: if you type 'text' -> results the same as '*text*'
285
You can exclude files from the search with '|'
286
(ex. '*.cpp *.h | *.moc.cpp' )
287
288
Search is possible on remote file systems as well.
289
290
If you have filesystems that you don't want to accidentally unmount (or
291
mount), just go to Konfigurator->Advanced, and enter a list of mount
292
points separated by commas, for example: /, /boot, /tmp) and mountman
293
won't try to (un)mount them.
294
295
Mountman got a big nose-job ;-) please test it well.
296
297
You can now drag'n'drop to the new tree view
298
299
Shift+left/right changes tabs (thanks to Dmitry Suzdalev)
300
301
New vfs_refresh() function only updates changes when you re-read a panel
302
and changes the content without the annoying full redraw effect.
303
304
When closing Krusader, the tabs are saved and restored
305
306
Synchronizer profiles:
307
Krusader handles synchronizer profiles. In synchronizer press
308
the 'profile' button, and you'll be able to add / load / save / remove
309
synchronizer profiles.
310
311
Synchronize with Kget:
312
If you want to synchronize a local directory with an unstable ftp
313
server, Kget is a much better solution than simple file copying. After
314
comparing you may right click on the result list and select
315
'Synchronize with kget' to execute the synchronization, after that the
316
listed files will be downloaded with kget instead of Krusader.
317
318
Dropping URLs onto the status / totals line:
319
If a directory contains a lot of subdirectories, it may not be
320
possible to drop the URL onto the panel (on which only directories are
321
visible). Now the URL can be dropped onto the status / totals line
322
instead.
323
324
Sync-browsing:
325
With a little toggle-button in the panel-level toolbar the SyncBrowse
326
mode is activated/deactivated.
327
When active, each directory change in the specific panel is performed
328
in the other panel also.
329
330
User-Actions:
331
With the user action system the user can make his own actions on files
332
in the panel or access Krusader internal functions with parameters
333
directly using the placeholder.
334
The actions integrate seamless into KDE's action-system, so the
335
standard edit-toolbar/shortcut-dialogs can show/manipulate the user
336
actions, too. The user actions are stored in
337
~/.kde/share/apps/krusader/useraction.xml (the file-structure is
338
documented in doxygen-headers of UserActionXML) User Actions can be
339
edited/added/im-/exported using a new Konfigurator module (although I
340
plan to move all action-related to a new ActionMan. For more info, see
341
http://www.jonas-baehr.de/forum/Krusader-ideas.txt)
342
Currently, these placeholder are implemented (for details see
343
UserAction/expander.cpp or doxygen):
344
Path replaced by the panels path
345
Count replaced by the number of <first parameter>
346
Filter replaced by the panels filter-mask
347
Current replaced by the current item
348
List replaced by a list of all <first paremeter>
349
Select manipulates the selection in a panel
350
Goto changes the panels's path to <first parameter>
351
Ask asks the user for a some text and is replaced by the
352
answer
353
Clipboard manipulates the clipboard
354
Copy copies a file, useful for quick, local, backups
355
Sync opens the Synchronizer with a given profile
356
NewSearch opens the search-windows with a given profile
357
Profile loads a given panel-profile
358
359
A GUI-based helper for placeholder-adding is provided.
360
In Path, Current and List spaces are per default automaticly escaped.
