\n \
Drag and Drop operations\n \
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=\n \
\n \
Dragging a file or group or files (by moving the mouse while maintaining the left button pressed)\n \
to a directory or a file panel optionally opens a dialog that allows one to select the file operation: copy,\n \
move, link or cancel.\n \
\n \
\n \
\n \
Trash system\n \
=-=-=-=-=-=-=\n \
\n \
Starting with version 1.32, xfe implements a trash system that is fully compliant with the freedesktop.org standards.\n \
This allows the user to move files to the trash can and to restore files from within xfe or your favorite\n \
desktop.\n \
Note that the trash files location is now: ~/.local/share/Trash/files\n \
\n \
\n \
\n \
Configuration\n \
=-=-=-=-=-=-=\n \
\n \
You can perform any xfe customization (layout, file associations, key bindings, etc.) without editing any file\n \
by hand. However, you may want to understand the configuration principles, because some customizations can also\n \
easily be done by manually editing the configurations files.\n \
Be careful to quit xfe before manually editing any configuration file, otherwise changes could not be taken\n \
into account.\n \
\n \
The system-wide configuration file xferc is located in /usr/share/xfe, /usr/local/share/xfe\n \
or /opt/local/share/xfe, in the given order of precedence.\n \
\n \
Starting with version 1.32, the location of the local configuration files has changed. This is to be compliant\n \
with the freedesktop.org standards.\n \
\n \
The local configuration files for xfe, xfw, xfv, xfi, xfp are now located in the ~/.config/xfe directory.\n \
They are named xferc, xfwrc, xfvrc, xfirc and xfprc.\n \
\n \
At the very first xfe run, the system-wide configuration file is copied into the local configuration file\n \
~/.config/xfe/xferc which does not exists yet. If the system-wide configuration file is not found\n \
(in case of an unusal install place), a dialog asks the user to select the right place. It is thus easier to\n \
customize xfe (this is particularly true for the file associations) by hand editing because all the local options are\n \
located in the same file.\n \
\n \
Default PNG icons are located in /usr/share/xfe/icons/xfe-theme or /usr/local/share/xfe/icons/xfe-theme, depending\n \
on your installation. You can easily change the icon theme path in Preferences dialog.\n \
\n \
\n \
\n \
Non Latin based languages\n \
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=\n \
\n \
Xfe can display its user interface and also the file names in non latin character based languages, provided that you\n \
have selected a Unicode font that supports your character set. To select a suitable font, use the\n \
Edit / Preferences / Font menu item.\n \
\n \
Multilingual Unicode TrueType fonts can be found at this address: http://www.slovo.info/unifonts.htm\n \
\n \
\n \
\n \
Tips\n \
=-=-=\n \
\n \
File list\n \
- Select files and right click to open a context menu on the selected files\n \
- Press Ctrl + right click to open a context menu on the file panel\n \
- When dragging a file/folder to a folder, hold on the mouse on the folder to open it\n \
\n \
Tree list\n \
- Select a folder and right click to open a context menu on the selected folder\n \
- Press Ctrl + right click to open a context menu on the tree panel\n \
- When dragging a file/folder to a folder, hold on the mouse on the folder to expand it\n \
\n \
Copy/paste file names\n \
- Select a file and press Ctrl-C to copy its name into the clipboard. Then in a dialog,press Ctrl-V to paste\n \
the file name.\n \
- In a file operation dialog, select a filename in the line containing the source name and paste it directly\n \
to the destination using the middle button of your mouse. Then modify it to suit your needs.\n \
\n \
Startup notification\n \
- Startup notification is the process that displays a feedback (a sandbox cursor or whatever) to the user when\n \
he has started an action (file copying, application launching, etc.). Depending on the system, there can be\n \
some issues with startup notification. If Xfe was compiled with startup notification support, the user can\n \
disable it for all applications at the global Preferences level. He can also disable it for individual\n \
applications, by using the dedicated option in the first tab of the Properties dialog. This latter way is\n \
only available when the file is an executable. Disabling startup notification can be useful when starting\n \
an old application that doesn't support the startup notification protocol (e.g. Xterm).\n \
\n \
\n \
\n \
Bugs\n \
=-=-=\n \
\n \
Please report any found bug to Roland Baudin <roland65@free.fr>. Don't forget to mention the xfe version you use,\n \
the FOX library version and your system name and version.\n \
\n \
\n \
\n \
Translations\n \
=-=-=-=-=-=-=\n \
\n \
xfe is now available in 19 languages but some translations are only partial. To translate xfe to your language,\n \
open the xfe.pot file located in the po directory of the source tree with a software like poedit, kbabel\n \
or gtranslator and fill it with your translated strings (be careful to the hotkeys and c-format characters),\n \
and then send it back to me. I'll be pleased to integrate your work in the next xfe release.\n \
\n \
\n \
\n \
Patches\n \
=-=-=-=\n \
\n \
If you have coded some interesting patch, please send it to me, I will try to include it in the next release...\n \
\n \
\n \
Many thanks to Maxim Baranov for his excellent X Win Commander and to all people that have provided useful\n \
patches, translations, tests and advices.\n \
