It could be argued that if mc is watching a directory, mc is in that directory so unmounting should not be an issue at this point, but adopting something like inotify in the long run seems like a better option. The other problem with the patch is that it lacks the configure magic to work on non-dnotify systems, and also lacks support for not aborting if the code is not available in the current kernel. The patch is a nice one, but it needs to be productized. _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
