After fixing some old dnd related bugs, I'm now trying to make desktop icons movable and it's already 50% finished. If things go smoothly, movable icon might be provided in 0.9.8. I, however, encounter an issue, again, the config file path. PCManFM allows using different config files. Previously this is achieved by pcmanfm --profile <name>. This will make pcmanfm load ~/.config/pcmanfm/<name>.conf. It works well, but if I want to extand it and add more config files, there will be problems. For example, if I want to store the position of icons in a separate config file other than <name>.conf, this can create problem. The more appropriate path for config files seems to be ~/.config/pcmanfm/<profile name>/main.conf ~/.config/pcmanfm/<profile name>/desktop-icons.conf ~/.config/pcmanfm/<profile name>/*.conf
This looks much more reasonable and logical, but changing this part can create backward incompatibility. Absolutely, this kind of change is not desired. But since we had no stable release and it's still a "work in progress", maybe we can have more room for this issue? Some design errors should be fixed at this point I think. "Once there is a stable release, I won't change the config file again and will maintain backward compatibility." So I'd like to know, if I change this, how many things/packages will be affected or be broken? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization is moving to the mainstream and overtaking non-virtualized environment for deploying applications. Does it make network security easier or more difficult to achieve? Read this whitepaper to separate the two and get a better understanding. http://p.sf.net/sfu/hp-phase2-d2d _______________________________________________ Lxde-list mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/lxde-list
