gentoo Description

A modern, powerful, flexible, and utterly configurable file manager gentoo is a modern, powerful, flexible, and utterly configurable file manager for UNIX systems, written using the GTK+ toolkit. gentoo aims to be 100% graphically configurable; there's no need to edit config files by hand and then restart the application. gentoo is somewhat inspired in its look & feel by the classic Amiga program DirectoryOpus 4 (by GP Software), but is not a "clone". gentoo has been successfully tested on a variety of platforms, including Linux (x86, Alpha, and PS2/MIPS), Solaris, FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD. Here are some key features of "gentoo": · Written from scratch, in straight ANSI C and utilizing the GTK+ toolkit. · Aims to be 100% graphically configurable, and comes pretty close, too. · Powerful file recognition system allows you to configure how files of different types are shown (with colors and icons), and what happens when you doubleclick them (spawn image viewers, music players, etc). · Includes more than 120 original pixmaps icons (16x15 pixels). · Internal support for most file operations (copy, move, rename, makedir etc). · Licensed under the GNU General Public License, and thus Open Source software. What's New in This Release: · Resurrected the --locale-info command-line option, which seems to have been lost in translation, from gentoo 0.11.x. While I was at it, I added a couple of more lines of information to it. · Redid much of how the tracking and handling of the pane split was done. It now works properly with a vertical split mode, which it certainly didn't do before . · Made the default pane split mode, if no config is present, lock the ratio at 50%. Should make new users less frightened. · Made the default settings for the Configuration and Text Viewer windows leave the positions alone. Trust the window manager. · Touched up the error handling in the ChOwn command, hoping to make it work more, and fail less. · Fixed a couple of bugs in the Types configuration code, that caused it to act a bit randomly. If you saw empty-named Types, this might have been the reason .
