I'd recommend to try git version of mc. Main page at http://midnight-commander.org/ contains direct URLs to clone: $ git clone git://midnight-commander.org/git/mc.git # git proto, more bandwidth efficient or $ git clone http://git.midnight-commander.org/mc.git # http proto $ cd mc (Can't find prerequisites page at wiki. You need a bunch of developer's heareds) After clone you need to generate ./configure: $ ./autogen.sh the rest of procedure is standard: $ ./configure optional-args $ make $ make install To sync source repo you can run $ git pull in mc source root directory time to time. -- Sergei signature.asc Description: PGP signature ___ Mc-devel mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel

When opening the mc-4.6.2-utf8.patch.gz, I get two folders: one is PATCH-CREATE and one is a. I am not sure what does this mean. Each folder contains some *.diff files. You see this stuff inside gz because of vfs of mc. This is not that you need to patch sources. Here is the steps you need to apply the patch: 1. gunzip ./mc-4.6.2-utf8.patch.gz 2. move to the folder with mc sources 3. patch -p0 ./mc-4.6.2-utf8.patch 4. build the sources P.S. don't forget to use --enable-charset at configure stage and then use Options/Display bits... to select UTF8. I also saw that there is a git repository for the utf8. If somebody can tell me what the URL for downloading this utf8 git repository it could be helpful (namely, what should I add to git clone so that I will download the utf8 branch) ? This UTF8 version is not supported for current time, because we have a new one. It will be much better if you will use master branch till we release 4.7 version (upcoming soon). No we are planing to release 4.7-pre1 in the nearest future. rgs, Kevin ___ Mc-devel mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel -- Friday 26 June 2009, 08:48:56 Regards, Mikhail S.
