Howdy,
i just add an "open entry with shell" action.
currently assigned to ctrl + o.
when you select a file, press ctrl + o an input box appears. there is a
default value (configureable in settings.conf section folder key
openWithShellInitValue). pressing enter executes the command then. {0}
is the placeholder for the current selected file.
do you want
ctrl + o for open
ctrl + w for open with?
should i swap them or keep it as it is?
cheers chrys

Howdy,
i just provided an PKGBUILD for dragonFM and uploaded it to AUR.
its currently a git package, as dragonFM does not yet seen any stable
release ;).
name: dragonfm-git
url: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dragonfm-git
if you already installed it using setup.py you might need to remove
conflicting files from your filesystem fist. (as setup.py does bypass
the package manager)
i added an wildcard mime type. if there is no specific entry in the
mime list, the xdg-open pops up now. this might be more helpful.
well, i will implement the open with for you. give me a second.
i will assign it to ctrl + o and move the open action to ctrl + m.

Sure I can test the pkgbuild once I'm back on my Arch box
And that input box works fine. I'll suggest Ctrl+O as the shortcut for
it so you got Enter/Ctrl+M to open (o maybe move open with to ctrl+M and
see how that works?), and a ctrl+O for open with?
AAh I didnt know about just exiting the shell. I assumed that'd close
the tab. My first thought was alright, fg dragonfm to get back to it

how does this look like? just a input dialog to enter any command
with the
current selected element as parameter?

well, just exit the shell (type "exit"), you will be back in
dragonfm then
:).

Currently its not. If you like it, i can put it into AUR.

Howdy,
Ok then i keep that alt + u.
That seems to work better, but does the Paytrion link you sent
in another message have the info on changing the shortcuts as
well?
Well i changed the shortcuts in master. So there is no need to
change them by others anymore.
Or what info you mean exactly?
There is now at least a basic documentation :).

Okay if it's just alt+u then yes keep it that way. That seems

Howdy,
i installed Mate terminal for testing
// Ctrl+D for details insteead of F10
ok this is changed.
about ^[u i was wrong. its just alt + u
so a single ^ is Ctrl
the sequence ^[ is alt if it is followed by an letter. if not,
its escape
ctrl + alt + x would be ^[^C
back to Alt + u, this worked for me, should i change the
shortcut in any
way?
// I'm trying to replace unzip and tar with atool
in section [mime] you see how to open an file.
in section [compress] and [decompress] you can configure the
de-/compressing
process.
i changed this for you
compress (the word compress bevore the equal is just the lable
shown in
context menu):
# {0} = Source: list of files separated by space with absolut
filepath
# {1} = Destination: archive name
compress=apack -q {1} {0}
decompress (for zipfiles, you can just copy that for any other
format
supported by atool and change the application/zip to whatever
mimetype you
want to unzip):
# {0} = Source: file to decompress
# {1} = Destination: folder with archive content
application/zip=atool -f -q --extract-to={1} {0}
i just pushed.

Sure thing. Here''s what I whipped upp real quick
Ctrl+D for details insteead of F10
Ctrl+alt+x for extract instead of trl+alt+u (which doesnt
seem to work
on Mate?)
I'm trying to replace unzip and tar with atool, how NNN
handles it since
it's a lot nicer to have one tool that handles a ton of
formats without
having to hunt down 10 differrent programs
Aside from that, not made any other changes to the .conf file
though.
It's a neat little program, though just in case I missed any,
go through
and use DragonFM with a terminal emulator and see what you
can come up
with for shortcuts? I'm on a laptop currently so that kind of
hinders
what I can do shortcuts wise however

Howdy,
Well, F123 was mostly TTY only. So the bindings are set with
that in mind :). The project wanted to momic GUI shortcuts
for most parts.
The colliding shortcuts can be changed very easy in settings
file.
If you hand me a list with shortcuts you want to have
changed, i change them for you right in master.
As F123 is no more, TTY compat. does not matter that much
anymore to me and we can improve it in terminal emulators
(most of them have more capabilities than TTY in any way,
for example konsole ( the KDE terminal emulator has special
escape sequences for shift arrow)

Unfortunately, DragonFM doesn't work well out of the box
with a terminal emulator, mostly down to conflicts with
keys like F10. Yes I can redefine them, but that's kind of
something Im slwly slowly poking at. I'm unable to get
Mate-terminal to recognize a ctrl+alt patern hough whereas
a TTY works fine so, unsure if you need to test Dragonfm on
terminal emulators with a desktop?
Kind of a shame since I like how easy Dragon is to use vs
something like
MC or Ranger or NNN (my current favorite one that doesn't
have keyboard
conflicts) though

Howdy,
Well there is a context menu ( dragonFM calls it Details,
because it also shows file properties like size, mime and
a list of available actions) with all available options by
pressing F10
Some actions are only available for given mime types like
compress current only for zip and tar, others could be
addad very easy. By default dragonfm does not use atool
but unzip command for zip files and tar of course for tar
those need to be installed or confured to use something
else. (I can give you a more detailed information how to
configure those stuff if you are interested in)
DragonFM reads the Escape sequences from stdin to detect
shortcuts (like almost any other CLI application)
Some important basic translation help (we should add the
shortcuts as comments to the settings file lol )
^ = CTRL
[ = Alt
Uppercase letter = shift + letter
lowercase letter = just the letter
An other example:
^[u translates as ctrl + alt + u
There are some specials like arrow keys or escape.
Escape is translated by ^[
(by the way many shortcuts are similar to other graphical
file managers BUT shift + arrow for mark files is
different as i could not figure how to read this from an
escape sequence, because there is no uppercase arrow *smile*)
Development was sponsored by F123 project. Today known as
stormux. Sadly i did not wire a lot of documentation but
you can ask me everything you want to know :).

So I gave it a shot and it feels logical and well laid
out, for the most
part
BUt I'm struggling on a few things. I have it going and
want to unzip an
archive from within it. In NNN I can just do that and
work with atool. I
can't seem to find the keys to start extracting an
archive or how
Dragonfm handles that at all, Ive only found unextract
with ^(U in the
config, which I've no clue what it translates to in terms
of actual keys
aside from ctrl and U. It's the ( I'm stumped on
See my main gripe with NNN is if I use it in a terminal I
have to hit O,
w3m and c to open an html doc in w3m else it loads up in
Firefox. Now
granted I've not tried it on a pure TTY but...on a
terminal, xdg-open
overrides browser being set as an environment variable
