Addendum
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
No new features are being added to the GNOME edition of the Midnight
|
||||
Commander anymore. It is just in maintenance and bug fixing stage.
|
||||
The reason for this is that the current design of the Midnight
|
||||
Commander is not suited well at all for a graphical version with
|
||||
multiple windows and asynchronous file operations. A new file manager
|
||||
is being written for the GNOME project.
