Yup, Thunar does indeed use custom widgets for the tree view and icon view at least. I'm surprised Benny didn't add even some accessibility support; I know I've seen code from him before that's done this. Unfortunately, you've brought this up at a bad time. We're just entering feature-freeze for our next major release, so likely this won't get worked on for a while. -brian _______________________________________________ Thunar-dev mailing list Thunar-dev@xfce.org http://foo-projects.org/mailman/listinfo/thunar-dev
