Hello folks! Let me add my share of requirements. - Uncluttered, minimalistic interface - Dual(Multi?) panes, Multi tabs. (Look at Gedit and play with Ctrl+N and Ctrl+Alt+N to get an idea of what this would be like.) - Multi select like Nautilus has. ( Ctrl+S and *.png selects all png files) - Sensible default key bindings that users expect. (Eg: backspace to go back in nav. ) - Customizable key bindings. - Sensible search. Search by default in the same directory, checkbox/some other mechanism that toggles recursive searching. Allow changing default. Leverage mlocate for faster results while also doing a proper recursive search. - Tags/comments for files. (I love this, but I may be alone.) - Extensible and scriptable using existing language(s?) Whoa! Big list there. I can share some work. Point me at something. There should be some discussion before some of these can be turned into a set of wishlist bugs. Lets discuss. This is probably my first mail here, so let me introduce myself. I'm Mahesh, a self proclaimed ubuntu enthusiast, ubuntu user for some time (~8 yrs), am in the team that developed unity tweak tool, can code in a bunch of languages, read a good portion of QML docs (reading still more), worked on GTK, learning QT, considered good at spotting bad designs but probably not as good at designing stuff on my own. -- J Phani Mahesh -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
