Hi, I have a small feature request, if there is still time for it, it should be rather easy to implement.
pcmanfm does not readdir() a directory again if there is no change notification event. This is usually OK and effective, but in case you change a file directly on a NFS server, the NFS client will not see the change in PCManfm, and even leaving and re-entering the directory won't make pcmanfm show the changes. Rather than changing pcmanfms behaviour in general, I request a "Reload" button that enforces re-reading the currently displayed directory, discarding the internal cache first.
