It does! But the user interface is _completely_ different from the desktop version. And i think that Ghisler did many things right. Total Commander for Android is basically a different program. Image how great a 1:1 port of the interface had looked on a smartphone. :) And that was my whole point, classic desktop interfaces optimized for mouse and keyboard are rarely easy to adopt to a touch device. Especially to something with a small display like a smartphone has. The whole interaction is different. > That said, I believe the future will be towards Android and such. > Traditional desktop/console will probably not die in your lifetime, > but everyday, and in every way, smartphones and tablets > are are getting better and better. (And more capable. :) To get back to your mockup. What's wrong with the way it is implemented in Dolphin? I liked how the +/- icons overlayed the file icon on hover - no waste of space.
