Re: PCManFM beta release postponed and may require unfreeze.

 

Personally I never use the trash, I always Shift+Del files. In fact, I've set pcmanfm to automatically delete the files. But if there's a "trash" feature and it doesn't work, that should be fixed in some way.

I'd prefer to have a tree view (at least on the left panel); it would make navigation easier. I hope this feature will be implemented soon.

It really depends how close the beta is and how good the support will be once the final version is released.

It seems silly to unfreeze now if the implementation of undelete is going to be rushed, however, if you're confident that you're going to be able to get good quality from the feature then I think going ahead would be fine.

    Here I want to ask our developers/translators for some opinions.
    We already entered feature and string freeze.
    However, I want to request an exception because current pcmanfm missed
    a REQUIRED feature for a file manager.
    We didn't implement undelete for trash:// then the trash bin support
    became totally useless.
    The reason this is not implemented is because glib/gio didn't provide
    support for this.
    However, today I found that it has partial support for it, but this is
    not documented in API doc.
    So, actually we can do it. Missing this feature is actually a severe
    usability bug since this makes trash bin useless.
    A new string "Restore" or "Undelete" might be needed for this menu
    item to restore trashed files.
    If there is no objection, I'd like to request an exception for the
    freeze.

    Any comment?
