Hello! Please set up your mail program to wrap long lines. I must do it manually to quote you. I've written a CD burner menu extension for MC. It consists of the menu file (of course) and a bash script sourced from the menu. I know it's quite simple and not well integrated into MC, but it

I would like scrolling by lines. The selection may stay until it reaches the first or last entry and then move down (if we're on the first entry and scroll down) or up (if we're on the last and scroll up). It would be like a ball in a box when moving the box: it tries to stay until it reaches

Hello! - .sytnax file mapping for .syntax files moved to top, so editing files like Makefile.syntax is colored now :) (it matched the Makefile.* rule) I've applied this part now, and everything else will be applied after 4.6.0 release. Thank you for porting your patches. Actually, I hoped

There is one thing I just hate about hotlist. Let me explain on a example. I run and close and run mc again quite often in many xterms, and I don't remember whether I used hotlist in current session before. I have my favourite ftp-sites in 'ftp' group in hotlist. I run mc. I press Ctrl-\, Enter

Hello! +current_group = hotlist; Well, I understand you want to start with the top-level group every time. I don't use groups, so it's hard for me to judge, but I think that some users may want the current behavior. For example, somebody may want to visit every directory in the group

Well, I understand you want to start with the top-level group every time. I think both behavior can be useful, so this can be made a configuration setting. Now with hotkeys, the hotlist is even more convenient to always start with the root group, because it's easier to press ctrl-\ and a

contrib directory badly needed

Maybe we need a directory for contributed changes that don't integrate well into the main codebase. YES! I browsed this list's archives and found lots of proposed patches that were never included into mc. I think we need to go through them once again and sort them into those that must be

Ok, but imo you should treat '..' like a label and align it with other labels (to conform with the filesystem metaphor). Done, plus fixed a movelist bug -- __ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com

Good idea. Moreover mc homepage should be more informative. If nobody protests, I could improve the mc homepage when I have more time, or even rebuild it from scratch. I develop some commercial sites (http://www.rpg-portal.pl http://www.nostromorpg.pl), so you could be sure I know how things
