Ahh too bad, thanks for the answer though :)

Couldn’t find any info, so maybe someone here knows: Is QT statically linkable, in particular when used from Rust? That’s something that I really value in fltk.

Here’s a blog post about the miscompilation bug: https://parsa.wtf/cast/

Ha, nice idea, but I don’t know C++ and that’s a yak I won’t shave :) I’ve also tried working with a folder with symlinks, and I discarded the idea for some reason I’m not really sure on (I think it has something to do with the fact that entering a symlinked directory will have you work inside the symlink, rather than the symlink’s target).

Thank you :) I’ve not been successfull really thus far. My best hope is that someone cooks up something in Rust that I can contribute to/fork to make it into what I want. One can dream ;) I use doublecmd right now, which ticks many boxes, but has some other oddities.

Yeah, so, bookmarks, I “just” need to be able to organize them, like with a folder structure (or even subfolders, but I don’t want to get greedy), and name them independently of their target. Using tags as a folder substitute is probably ok, that’s why I looked at blazepilot. I also don’t want that dreaded “places” list wasting my screen space, so maybe putting them into a menu or behind a shortcut is in order…

Dolphin is somewhat ok-ish, exactly like you say. It’s slightly better than that gnome-thingy I’m forced to use at work, but the bookmarks aspect it important enough for me to avoid it for personal usage (where I’m free to choose).

“File commands don’t block GUI” means: If I e.g. copy a file, I want to directly use the filemanager, even while the copy is still running. I think most of the more popular file managers do this, but it is really important :)

• Real bookmark management (a flat list of places doesn’t do, especially not if the name of the bookmark must be the name of the folder)
• I need 2 side by side, so let me disable the sidebar and react to the keypress <Super>+<Left/Right> (or make it a double-panel thing)
• Tree view (where I can open subfolders) that keeps as much state as possible when refreshing
• Configurable hotkeys (I especially want to open a terminal in either the folder I’m in or the folder I’ve selected or the folder the file I’ve selected is in)
• Configurable file associations - image and program to open. That xdg-mime stuff doesn’t cut it. It’s fine to just do it by extension, and it’s fine to just configure it for the file manager.
• File operations don’t block the GUI
• Configurable context menu (the right click thing) - let me remove actions I don’t want, and let me add my own
• Bonus: A terminal below the panel that stays in the directory the panel is in (konqueror had this some time in the past, I loved that)
• Bonus: When I drag&drop a file, ask me if I want to copy/move/link the file, don’t use some sort of filesystem-based heuristics

I’ve no idea. I kinda assume AI is basically used everywhere, but unless explicitely stated one can seldom be sure.

Wait, what? Any more details about this, I’ve never heard about that before. Partially run Drop impls sounds like a big potential for undefined behavior, how could catch_unwind possibly cause that?

Yeah, no, I don’t think this is true. It’s the reason a double panic will cause an abort. The docs do recommend against using this for general error recovery, but there’s no mention of any possibillity of inconsistent state.
