New plugins were added for manipulating filelist selections. Several new configuration options were added. Minor bugs were fixed.


Changes: This release includes upgraded command interpretation, new and renamed actions and tweaked operation of some existing actions, wider coverage of configurable key bindings, build-time option to support pointer-device bindings (buttons and gestures), revised plugins (e.g. upgraded security in the crypt plugin), lzma support in pack/unpack, and a new pl translation.


Changes: Various small refinements and fixes.


Changes: This release includes a variety of small changes, including prevention of random freezes on GTK 2.12. A patch with a couple more small fixes is available.

Feature Request: Keyboard shortcut for bookmark menu
Hi! I'd like to request a little feature: It would be nice to be able to add a keyboard shortcut to open the bookmarks menu on panel 1 and two. Eg. ALT+F1 opens bookmark menu on panel 1, and ALT+F2 opens bookmark menu on panel 2.
th x in advance

Status line is already over-full, to the extent of sometimes garbled text when queued file operations are in progress. I'd recommend adding a keybinding which runs a suitable shell command, like stat -f ... (there's already a default user-command which does something like that)

emelFM2 doesn't know anything about desktop environment in which it operates. Maybe you could explore something like alltray http://alltray.sourceforge.net
