Re: title refreshing (xtt) and the 4.6.0 release
Well enough on that one then - I thought it a liitle out of preportion (for such a minor feature). I'ts just when using mc on a production machine without a fancy PS1 setting the dangling title was basically sloppy. Two or three lines of code near the end of main() to print (even NULL) to the title bar should close this issue. ... and people like me should probably read the TO DO's a little more frequently...

I even start thinking that maybe I shouldn't have applied the patch for changing the title, because the time spent on this issue could have been better spent on something else. You are right, this issue takes too much time. But I fell obligated to resolve this properly, as I was the one who made the mess by improving the xterm-title :) Moreover it would be easier if you give us a clear statement what you will accept and what you won't accept, and when. My opinion is that xterm restoring is not critical, and if it will be included in mc it can't give user any discomfort (timeouts) or force him to change anything (conffiles). It also has to be clean and simple coded (no offense Tribhuvan, but we should keep the simple thing simple - that's the Unix way) and has to have some fallback when sth goes wrong (depending on console i/o is not reliable imo). Xlib approach satisfies this conditions. It fails in some cases, but qis is so important? vim people use this, so maybe there isn't any better way?

In all of those filemanagers, the root directory has no .., and it's an indicator of the top-level directory. We could remove .. everywhere and use a shortcut to go up (Ctrl-PgUp), but that would also be confusing to the new users with DOS, Windows or OS/2 background. I think I gonna get used to it even if I don't like it really much but since many people seem to prefer the new over the old one then I'm all for it. Anyways thank you for your great work on MC it's still the best console filemanager around. Greets. __ Nutzen Sie Ihre Zeit fur wirklich wichtige Dinge!
