I'm very sorry for my offensive words. But they were not meant to be sent to the mailing list, but only to Michal Kaut who asked about sorting files. The problem is that I use the famous Mozilla Thunderbird, and although it has two separate buttons for "Reply" and "Reply to mailing list", they both reply to the mailing list... which I've just learnt by this case. Excellent! :-( So I am apologising. 12.11.2010 16:08, Nick Schermer пишет: On Fri, Nov 12, 2010 at 1:44 PM, Mikhail Batser wrote: Hello!

Which is also off-topic, since Thunar has nothing to do with Linux. ___ Thunar-dev mailing list Thunar-dev@xfce.org http://foo-projects.org/mailman/listinfo/thunar-dev

I have this problem too from time to time, so I agree it's definitely worth improving. For extensions this is quite easy (although we are in feature freeze, so it won't land for Xfce 4.8 / Thunar 1.2). EXIF/ID3 would be an extension point (we don't want to depend on too much libraries for various reasons), which is obviously a bit harder. Anyway, I'll create bugs for this, because it is important and since the focus for 1.4 is more on improving features (1.2 was all about the thunar-vfs -> gio migration), there is a good change this will be fixed.

Hello! That's another one case which demonstrate us all the stupidity of Linux developers :) I had been a Linux user for several years, and I got completely sick of the system. 11.11.2010 18:47, Michal Kaut пишет: Hello, is it possible to sort files by extension in Thunar? I know it can sort by "Type", but this is definitely not what I want, because: - some extensions have the same type, for example .txt, .out and .dat are all of type "plain text document" - so they get all mixed up - it is difficult to find files; for example for the .dat files, I have to remember that they are called "plain text" and therefore sorted under "p" .. not to mention .mod files, where I have my optimization models, which are called "Amiga Sountracker audio" and hence sorted under "A"..) (The optimal thing, as far as I can tell, would be to have custom columns in Thunar. In this way, one could have (and be able to sort by) not only extension, but also ID3 tags for music and EXIF data for pictures .. but that is probably too much to ask for?)
