This is not what Thunar is meant to provide. We'll already provide 4-5
possible UI configurations. Users that prefer the "commander" interface
are better off using a file manager dedicated to this interface,

Got thunar to compile :) only needed all libs from svn but ok. Below some
brainstorm ideas. Probably these conflict with the "as simple as possible" rule.

Definitely this one is better. Actually I think Windows Explorer in
WinXP has done it really nice (for example - i have set the thumbnails
view to my wallpapers directory, and it remembers it. Everywhere else

Sure, I didn't mean that some tool like 'about:config' should be
written, but that the configuration options that we don't think are
much important, like 'icon-sizes' for example, should be configurable
through the config file, and not hardcoded to the program.
A GUI for changing those options is

In what method are the preferences going to be stored? A 'thunarrc'

I'm just thinking that maybe we can have most of the preferences
hidden, but have access, through the file, to them all. Something like
Gecko's 'about:config'.
Yes, it can look scary, but really no 'a
I've been pretty quiet but I've read all of the discussion and tend to

I think thumbnails are important. It is a powerful way to identify the
file, without opening it. It's not only used when going over an images
