Re: Midnight Commander 4.8.17 released
Thank you very much. IMHO, the way things are going at this point are perfect for this time and place: slowly working out bugs and making minor tweaks and improvements. Until something changes and the move to 5.0.0 series becomes clear (likely some major change in an underlying dependency, or the adoption of that mc2 scripting aspect), I think we should continue on this (glacial) incremental path, bumping micro-versions every few months, and just seeing where this takes us.

Re: smbfs: questions and issues
> I re-discover smbfs after few years, I see it's still as slow and > itchy as it was Yes, the performance and bugginess of Samba / smbfs have not been improving at all. Which is probably not the developers' fault, but a poorly designed protocol. If your setup allows it, you might want to try sshfs. Coming from smbfs, I've found it to be ridiculously fast and reliable. There is also mc's internal #sh support: cd #sh:user@server:/path You might want to try both (FUSE sshfs and mc #sh) and see which one works best for you. I tend to use sshfs for local resources, as a replacement for smbfs or nfs, and #sh for remote resources. Toby ___ mc mailing list https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
