Hello, Emacs Community!
I have just released version 6 of the Sunrise Commander file manager
for GNU Emacs (yay!). Here is a list of the most interesting changes
made since version 5 was released:
* Uses lexical bindings (new in Emacs 24) in the core script, as well
as in all extensions.
* Automatic killing of unused buffers can be now disabled by setting
the new `sr-kill-unused-buffers' custom variable to nil (some users
actually prefer killing their buffers manually).
* Automatic loading of installed extensions can be now disabled by
setting the new `sr-autoload-extensions' custom variable to nil.
* New, "better behaved" and more intuitive implementation of history
navigation (press M-y to move back, M-u to move forward).
* Added "Run Executable File" function (X).
* Added "Flatten Branch" function (C-c b), which allows to display a
flat view of the items contained in the current directory and all
its sub-directories (recursively) in the active pane.
* Added "Prune Paths" (C-c p) function, which allows to kill all the
lines in the active pane that match a given regexp.
* Added "Follow Viewer" function (C-c ;) to jump to the directory of
the file currently displayed in the viewer window.
* Implemented sorting or entries in VIRTUAL panes, based on file
attributes.
* Added numerical sorting (e.g. file2.txt BEFORE file10.txt) and
sorting in reverse order (r).
* Copy operations in Sunrise now honor the `dired-copy-preserve-time'
flag.
* Added support for `dired-omit-mode' (C-o) and other commands from
inside sticky searches (C-c s).
* Added support for launching command-line programs different than
the configured default (C-c M-t).
* Added %a, %A, %p and %P macro expansions (for 'a'ctive and
'p'assive panes) in command line integration.
* Invoking repeatedly `sr-term' (C-c t) cycles through all currently
open terminals.
* `sr-dired' can now be used like `dired' in the command line in
eshell.
* Added support (via AVFS) for *.tar.xz and *.apk compressed
archives.
* The default percentage of vertical space occupied by the panes can
now be configured via the new `sr-windows-default-ratio' custom
variable.
* Opening files in external applications do not affect any more
neither the state of the panes, nor the history of the "quick view"
function.
* `sr-find-grep' (C-c C-g) now accepts additional grep parameters
(-i, -e, etc) when invoked with a C-u prefix.
* Uses enriched-mode to maintain file name attributes in saved
virtual buffers.
* Selective hiding/transforming of file attributes in Sunrise
panes. By setting appropriately the value of the
`sr-attributes-display-mask' custom variable, one can select what
specific attributes will be hidden when invoking
`sr-toggle-attributes' (C-c backspace), and how the remaining
attributes will be displayed.
* Improved path projection feature with auto-repeat:
`sr-project-path' (C-M-o) invoked repeatedly cycles through all
alternative projections of the current directory in the passive
pane.
* Created new "Windows Addons" extension (sunrise-x-w32-addons).
* Now available also via el-get (https://github.com/dimitri/el-get)
and MELPA (http://melpa.milkbox.net/).
IN THE POPVIEWER EXTENSION:
* Added frame re-usability "styles" (see `sr-popviewer-style' for
details) and support for terminals in popped viewer frames.
* Major refactoring by Štěpán Němec: the extension is now a proper
minor mode.
IN THE TABS EXTENSION:
* Once a tab has been renamed (C-j), its original name can be now
restored by pressing C-j [RET] (i.e. with an empty "new name").
IN THE MIRROR EXTENSION:
* Added support (via AVFS) for *.tar.xz and *.apk compressed
archives.
* Critical bugfix: avoid deadlocks in FUSE when committing nested
mirrors.
IN THE LOOP EXTENSION:
* Major refactoring and clean-up by Štěpán Němec.
A Big Thank You to Štěpán Němec, Vitalie Spinu, John Wiegley, Andreas
Politz, Boris Kheyfets, Nicolas Dudebout, sindikat and all others who
with their contributions, suggestions, questions and requests for new
features have helped improving this project.
