Re: mc.ext is problematic by nature
László Monda: 2012/4/8 Szabó Gergely s...@subogero.com: What would you do on a text-only Debian Squeeze server? I'd check whether the shared-mime-info package (which implements the above standards) is installed and not try to read system level defaults if it's not. On my Gentoo shared-mime-info is installed because of some dependencies, but there is no desktop at all. Only icewm. There are no system level defaults. ;) Hartmut -- Usenet-ABC-Wiki http://www.usenet-abc.de/wiki/ Von Usern fuer User :-) ___ mc-devel mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel

Problem with question mark in the filename
Greetings, i know that this is not the right place to open a bug, but i do miss a guide 'how to submit bugs for mc' on http://www.midnight-commander.org/wiki. ;) Often i download patches for SeaMonkey and get files with a question mark. One example is https://bug579736.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=458928. Using wget to fetch this patch gives a file with the name attachment.cgi?id=458928. My build script for SM will automatically apply this patch. If i wish to disable a patch for the next build a convenient way is to rename the file by prefixing the filename with an x. mc should be able to do this. But. *g* Here is a testcase. Create a new temp dir and change to it. Then issue touch a1?b2 mc Navigate to a1?b2 and press F6 a ESC TAB Home x gives xa1?b2 as intended The filename changes to xa1a1?b2b2 after confirmation. This result isn't really that one which was wanted. I am using h...@e675 ~ $ mc --version GNU Midnight Commander 4.7.3 [...] Hartmut ___ mc-devel mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel

4.7.0-pre4: Copying multiple lines into the editor is broken
Greetings, select more than one line e.g. in an xterm, in the viewer of mc or in emacs and try to paste them with a middle-cklick of the mouse into the editor of mc. Well, even in old versions it was necessary to hold down the Shift-Key while pressing the middlemouse button. This continues, unfortunately. But now the Linefeeds at the end of the lines are suppressed and as a result all lines are are connected to a single line. This makes the copy a block of code into the mc editor quite useless.

Re: Viewer in 4.7.0-pre4
Slava Zanko: Hmm... looks like no have permissions for change your ~/.mc/history file. And you are right with this. 'root root 0600' for history. Do you use Ubuntu? Or is you run mc as 'sudo mc' instread of 'sudo su -l - -c mc'? I'm using Gentoo which offers only the 4.7.0* at the moment for mc. And yes, sometimes i use 'sudo mc' to edit e.g. something in /etc. try to change owner of your 'history' file and try again. I have deleted history and also filepos which had 'root root 0644'. As far i can see at the moment all seems to work well now. And even 'sudo mc' doesn't change the ownership of history or filepos. :) P.S. 4.7.0-pre4 don't change owner of ~/.mc files. But if owner was changed before this release, then this situation may be raised. In opposite, if ~/.mc/* files will have proper owner, then 4.7.0-pre4 will not change owner of these files. It's likely that i have had all previous versions of 4.7.0* on my machine. One of them may have caused the behavior.

Viewer in 4.7.0-pre4
Greetings, in 4.7.0-pre4 when searching a file in the viewer the search term is forgotten when trying to find the next occurrence of a match. Furthermore, in older releases of mc the search term was remembered at the next file. The search box was was filled out beforehand with the old term. Very convenient and i miss it.
