Плагин FTP не конектится к серверам

Не знаю с чем точно связано , но заметил что плагин FTP не коннектится к серверам и сваливается на ошибке что не может законектится http://screencloud.net/v/m9n7
PS есть предположение что это из за IPv6 которые есть на моей машине, но сайт который я открываю IPv4

Better linux shell integration.

Feature request.

Provide better linux shell integration:

• use .profile and shell rc files to configure shell used in far
• use $PS1 as a command prompt string
• cd command should also change directory displayed on the current panel (cd .., cd ~, cd)

make world better

placeholder for general discussions

Store and load console resolution

Far console window always defaults to the 80x25 resolution.

Far(WinPort) should save last resolution or the resolution should be configurable.

Recommended fonts

What fonts can be used with far2l? The ones I am trying are awful. Also, how to change the font without removing ~/.far2l?

Мультипоточная сборка

Понимаю что альфа , но наверное стоит рассмотреть возможность мультипоточной сборки
make -j N
Потому что потоки не синхронизированы и выдают ошибку так как остальные ресурсы ещё не готовы

А сборка в один поток занимает минут 5 что не очень интересно на многопроцессорной машине

what is an easiest way to open current far's folder in default file manager

something like "start ." on windows
can not guess

ask for sudo/root user password while trying to write to root-owned files like /etc/*

currently an attempt to edit/save any file owned by root results to "Error 5"

expected behavour for Far Manager is to ask for a password of user with administrative privilegies as other FMs do.

Asynchronous file list loading into panels

This issue has been bothering me for... 20 years.

When you try to open network or some slow mount point (like webdav), Far takes ages to load files and the worst thing about this, it blocks input, so you can't navigate second panel.

I wonder, whether it is possible to fix. I'm afraid, it would be difficult to make this correctly in Far, but at least it worth investigating I suppose.

Far doesn't open/execute files, containing whitespaces

When trying to open or execute files, containing whitespaces, far says for example:
"2 2.sh: command not found"

Licensing clarity

I noticed that there is no LICENSE file that is present in standard Far3 repository. This is a license violation that can lead to termination of far2l project o GitHub.

To avoid "license deadlock" and make it more useful for upstream, the original BSD code pieces could be kept separated from GPLv2 both in headers and in top level LICENSE file.

make default choise in drive panel configurable

Currently "/run/user/USERID" is selected by default.

It would be great to make this choise configurable. for example, to select "~" or "/" to be default choise if needed.

left arrow key fails to work in some cases in file attributes dialog

1. select a file
2. press Ctrl-A
3. press PgDn
4. press RightArrow
5. press LeftArrow - it would not work

Don't execute everything, what has execute flag on it.

If video, pdf or other kind of non-executable file (document) has executable permission on it (this is the case with some mounted file systems) and user presses enter on it, Far should not blindly try executing it, but instead should try to deduce what kind of file it is.

You could try looking at the 'file' program and try to use it with far.

Otherwise far is getting pretty unusable.

shell integration: "open current folder in far manager" in MATE and other shells

how can it be implemented? should it be done withing far2l project or on the desktop shell's side?

Отсутствует cmake_minimum_required

в файлике far2l.git/trunk/far2l/CMakeLists.txt отсутствует cmake_minimum_required

Refactoring: remove unnecessary libraries from plugins

Cleanup plugins by removing unnecessary libraries, which could (and should) be managed by system package manager:

1. multiarc: libpcre (use c++ regex)
2. colorer: zlib
3. netbox: putty (replace with openssh, because it would be great if far could pickup ssh keys from ~/.ssh)

Have I missed anything?

Far interferes with keyboard layouts, using AltGr (right Alt) for 3rd level characters.

There are many very convenient keyboard layouts like US Alternative International or Russian (with Ukrainian, Belarus), etc, which are using AltGr to enter 3rd level characters like umlauts.

However far intercepts combinations with AltGr not allowing to enter 3rd level characters.

Far2l packaging

Prepare binary packages for popular distros.

As of now I could imagine following issues regarding packaging:

1. plugin location and changes to far so it could find plugins (evtl. configurable)
   • default plugins ( /use/lib/far2l/ )
   • custom plugins ( ~/.local/lib/far2l )
2. languages and help location and paths

• /usr/share/far2l

Plugin paths are configurable via

struct LoadPluginsOptions
{
//  DWORD TypeLoadPlugins;       // see TYPELOADPLUGINSOPTIONS
    int MainPluginDir; // TRUE - использовать стандартный путь к основным плагинам
    int PluginsCacheOnly; // seting by '/co' switch, not saved in registry
    int PluginsPersonal;

    FARString strCustomPluginsPath;  // путь для поиска плагинов, указанный в /p
    FARString strPersonalPluginsPath;
    int SilentLoadPlugin; // при загрузке плагина с кривым...
    int OEMPluginsSupport;
    int ScanSymlinks;
};

slow colorer background parsing

При редактировании больших файлов вроде https://github.com/vurtun/nuklear/blob/master/nuklear.h , если сразу спозиционироваться в конец, можно ждать парсинга colorer вечно.
Предлагаю такое решение: lieff@b712007
Это быстро увеличивает объем парсинга до 10000 строк\итерацию. Время ожидания на nuklear.h сокращается до ~5 секунд. Если во время не завершенного процесса сдвинуть курсор, можно заметить залипание, но оно не большое.

far suspends, when oppening file using xdg-open

For example, when pressing enter on some document, far suspends.
After using 'fg' in the shell, from which far2l was started, far 'wakes up'.

CreateFile: /home/igor/Downloads/165287006-0.pdf - dwDesiredAccess=0x1 flags=0x80000 path=/home/igor/Downloads/165287006-0.pdf r=8

paste hotkeys does not work in command line tools running from Far

how to reproduce:

1. run 'read' command from Far (without quotes)
2. try to paste something

Tested Ctrl-V, Ctrl-Shift-V, Shift-Ins.

gvfs-mount tool also shows this behavour (then asking for password)

Кодировка у плагинов

Походу плагины считают что должно быть cp866
http://screencloud.net/v/kNTv

Unexpected characters appear, when "not found" message is shown in the console.

In trace string looks correct:
find mask: .* (for /home/igor/projects/test/far/far2l/Build/.*) - ..
OnKeyUp: 2e 2e 0 18367836
OnKeyDown: d d 0 18368369
OnKeyDown: d d 0 18368369
OnChar: d d 0 18368369 _last_keydown_ts=18368369 _last_keydown_enqueued=0
ConsoleInput::Enqueue: 13 13 DOWN
ConsoleInput::Enqueue: 13 13 UP
RegSetValue type=7 cbData=1096
RegSetValue type=1 cbData=64
RegSetValue type=3 cbData=120
RegSetValue type=4 cbData=4
CommandLine::ShowBackground: done
ExecClassifier('start .') - open error 2
setting console size: 140 x 47
ioctl(TIOCSCTTY): Operation not permitted

I suppose, null-termination is somewhere missing or the length calculated incorrectly. Or there is sometimes completely wrong pointer.

Shell integration: advanced autocomplete

Far shell is almost unusable without normal auto complete like in zsh or at least bash.
I miss possibility to auto complete:

• parameters (I.e. mount -t v TAB (or some other key, I think there was an extension long ago, which used '`' character) should autocomplete available filesystem starting with 'v')
• repository objects (commits, tags, branches)
• etc

show file owner/group in detailed view (and in "status bar" in the bottom of panel)

.LNG generator: неправильная обработка изменнных строк в шаблоне

При вырезании префикса "upd:" в файле "farlng/src/lng.generator.cpp", строка 560, не переносится терминирующий ноль:

memmove(lpLNGString, lpLNGString+4, length-4);

Должно быть:

memmove(lpLNGString, lpLNGString+4, length-3);

Дефект проявляется, например, в английской локали в меню "Options", где пункт "Code pages" имеет вид "Code pages"ges".

Плагин темпорари русский язык

Наверное стоит предусмотреть при компиляции перевод всех ресурсов всех плагинов на UTF или например реализовать работу с плагинами так чтобы использовать не изменённые ресурсы а переконверчивать их налету

typing "exit<enter>" in command prompt should close Far as it is done on windows

hotkeys like Ctrl+O do not work then russian keyboard layout is selected

error processing archives with non-english characters in the names of archived files/folders

sample archive (created on linux) included. listed ok, but unpacking fails.

the other sample archive (created on windows) lists with garbadge in file names, and also does not unpacks.

export far plugin api to allow writing plugins as shell scripts

(or using any scripting language)

far can not browse to archives within archives

sample: 2g0.ru/alternatives.tar.4.gz
try to browse into alternatives.tar.4.gz/alternatives.tar.0/alternatives/builtins.7.gz

"add to archive" action is not available in far2l using F11 plugin menu

please make far2l remember its window position and size (and restore them on restart)

Far does not positions cursor correctly, when leaving directory

Scenario:

• create the directory named "ABC"
• create the directory named "abc"
• move cursot to "abc" and enter the directory
• leave "abc" (by selectiong "..")

Expected behavior:

• cursor stays on "abc"

Observed behavior:

• cursor stays on "ABC"

Numpad '5' doesn't work

Numlock is deactivated.

Numpad '5' does not:

• enter/leaves viewer, when the cursor is above file and
• doesn't show directory size, when pressed with the cursor above the directory.

Instead the cursor jumps to the first entry in directory.

All other numpad keys (arrows, enter, gr-plus, gr-minus) are working fine.

BiasFileTimeToFileTime() не учитывает часовой пояс

Функции localtime() и mktime() обратны друг другу, поэтому local_now и now в BiasFileTimeToFileTime() всегда равны. Проверка:

// что делает BiasFileTimeToFileTime()
time_t now = time(NULL);
struct tm local_tm = *localtime(&now);
struct tm xtm = local_tm;
xtm.tm_isdst = 0;
time_t local_now = mktime(&xtm);
printf("localtime(): %ld\n", local_now - now);
// и через gmtime()
local_tm = *gmtime(&now);
xtm = local_tm;
xtm.tm_isdst = 0;
local_now = mktime(&xtm);
printf("gmtime(): %ld\n", local_now - now);

С localtime() будет ноль, с gmtime() - "размер" часового пояса в секундах с противоположным знаком.

Дефект проявляется, например, при отображении на панели времени последнего изменения файла.

alt+f9 works incorrectly

as for now, alt+f9 just minimizes the window.
maybe it should maximize the window (leaving taskbar on a screen, unlike alt+enter) instead ?

sftp/scp support [gvfs,sshfs backends: separate projects; internal backend: see #247]

native sftp/scp support (without using sshfs or something like it) would be nice
https://github.com/michaellukashov/Far-NetBox/

Add option to reassign Alt-Key

This is a kind of a feature request.

Since in Linux Alt-Key is the default and almost a standard de facto for many functions in almost every desktop environment (alt+f1, alt+f7 and especially alt+f2) it would be nice to have option to reassign Alt in Far for example to super (win) or some other key to avoid conflicts with Window Managers and DEs.

Far doesn't allow to enter characters other than latin.

For example try to rename file, so it contains Cyrillic characters.

make world better #2

continuation of #14

Add an option to configure far's editor to create new text files in utf-8 charset

Add an option to configure far's editor to create new text files in utf-8 charset, and another option - to assume utf-8 encoding by default then opening files (as it is done in far3).

Or also hardcode utf-8 as default encoding instead of 1251 or 866.

Really, who needs whose two on linux systems?
