Re: [gftp] Feature request

[Alonso Acuña <alonso@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I believe what Helmut means is that the Tools item in the top menu, when
clicked, is not showing any subitems. I am seeing this too.

Synchronized navigation is working very well.

Regarding the gtk compile error, the problem is 2.0.19 is using a
function gtk_container_get_focus_child which does not exist in GTK 2.0
I have solved this by looking at the source for this function and
implementing it inline in gftp-gtk.c . I am not sure why this is used
but at least the compile error is solved.

So, Qianqian please do the following change so us with GTK 2.0 can
continue to build and use the program:

In gftp-gtk.c, change each instance of:

if(gtk_container_get_focus_child(GTK_CONTAINER(window2.container)))

to:

GtkContainer *cont = GTK_CONTAINER(window2.container);
if(cont!=NULL && GTK_IS_CONTAINER (cont) && cont->focus_child)


Qianqian, let me know if you saw my previous email, I am ready now to go
on with the other fixes and features I mentioned.

I have one additional feature request. We should make the folders in the
list appear someone different to regular files so that it is more
obvious which is which. I am not sure if the size column serves any
purpose for folders and perhaps could be used to differentiate.


Thanks

Alonso
