No, I don't have this in my TODO list. Could you please explain in more details what you mean and what you want to do? There is already some support for SMB shares in MC, but it's implemented in such "hacky" way that it's disabled by default. If I understand correctly (sorry if I'm wrong), you are not even aware about that implementation. If so, it shows how important it is to do "The Right Thing" - hacks remain unknown even to those who need them. I cenvision two approaches how to do it right. 1) Use samba library. The problem is that such thing doesn't exist (it didn't last time checked). Contribute it to the Samba team. Make MC use it when it's installed. 2) Make MC run "smbclient" and parse its output. May be not so reliable, but no changes in other software are required (hopefully). This is how FiSH (FIles transferred over SHell) works. If you mean something else please explain. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Mc mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
