text highlighting (for the Linux console only);
|
||||
insert-overwrite toggle; and an option to pipe text blocks
|
||||
through shell commands like indent.
|
||||
|

|
||||
|
||||
mcedit is a link to mc which bring it up in editor mode.

|
||||
(invoke it by using the hex-viewer and then clicking on edit).
|
||||
|
||||
- Find file command:
|
||||
- Now we can search inside files using a piped grep (particularly
|
||||
interesting to search inside virtual file system: tar files,

Version 3.0
|
||||
|
||||
This has been finished:
|
||||
|
||||
- Virtual File System: You now can browse tar, compressed tar and
|
||||
file systems over the network as if they were local subdirectories;
|
||||
- Slang support, you don't need ncurses anymore (but you can still compile
|
||||
with ncurses, if you want).
|
||||
- New mc.ext format, for details see the sample mc.ext file provided.
|
||||
- Append option if you try to copy/move a file onto already existing one.
|
||||
- Internal cd command uses CDPATH variable if set (like in BASH).
|
||||
- Find file command is much faster.
|
||||
- External panelize command - finding files using unlimited number of
|
||||
criteria - actually spawns an external command and it can be find, awk,
|
||||
grep -l or anything else.
|
||||
- Learn keys makes setting up of mc on terminals with broken
|
||||
terminfo/termcap databases easier. It just asks you to press keys which
|
||||
are not working.
|
||||
- Advanced chown command.
|
||||
- C-PgUp and C-PgDn takes you to the previous and currently selected
|
||||
directory respectively on the Linux console.
|
||||
- You can choose between 7 data bits, iso-latin-1 (0-127+160-255) or
|
||||
other (0-255).
|
||||
- Confirmation for overwriting, deleting and exiting added.
|
||||
- Viewer has growing buffers.
|
||||
- Filename, username, hostname and variable completion (M-Tab) on all
|
||||
input lines plus command completion on appropriate places of command
|
||||
line.
|
||||
- Following of symlinks at changing directory.
|
||||
- Viewer now supports bold faces and underlines, and it fits the
|
||||
information on the screen better. Now you can also specify the starting
|
||||
mode for the viewer depending on the contents of the viewed file.
|
||||
- Mask rename and copy.
|
||||
- Colors now let you specify the intensity of the colors you want.
|
||||
|
||||
This is being worked on:
|
||||
- Virtual File System: FTP file system.
|
||||
- Tcl/Tk and XView versions of the program (preliminary versions are
|
||||
up and running).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Version 2.0
|
||||
|
||||
Now users are able to define their own display
|
||||
|
||||
- User defined display formats.
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can configure the file display to suit your needs.
|
||||
For example, you can say which information you want to see displayed
|
||||
instead of our defaults.
|
||||
|
||||
- User definable program layout.
|
||||
|
||||
Panels could be shown vertically or horizontally;
|
||||
panels could be different sizes, you can hide or show most
|
||||
program windows (command line, keybar or menubar).
|
||||
|
||||
- Output window.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, it's possible to see part of the last program output on the Linux
|
||||
console without having to switch screens via an option in the layout
|
||||
menu.
|
||||
|
||||
- New View modes:
|
||||
|
||||
Quick view: as you browse your files, each one is displayed on
|
||||
the other panel on the idle time.
|
||||
|
||||
Tree view: let's you browse your directories by traveling a tree.
|
||||
We have two traveling modes available. And the tree does
|
||||
not take your precious time: it's build on the fly, as you
|
||||
browse your disk (you can always loose your time if you
|
||||
want to :-).
|
||||
|
||||
Info view: Gives you information on the currently select file and
|
||||
the current file system as you move.
|
||||
|
||||
User view: Let's you define a directory listing and the format you
|
||||
want to use.
|
||||
|
||||
- New subshell support (concurrent shell execution)
|
||||
|
||||
The Midnight Commander will now spawn one copy of the shell, so you
|
||||
get better performance and you can use shell functions, define variables
|
||||
and execute complete shell commands. Supported shells: bash, zsh and
|
||||
tcsh. If your shell is not supported, then the old mode is still
|
||||
available.
|
||||
|
||||
- Dialog box manager
|
||||
|
||||
Almost all the new configuration options are configured with this
|
||||
new dialog manager, easy to use if you are familiar with dialog boxes
|
||||
in DOS and Windows.
|
||||
|
||||
Available widgets: check buttons, buttons, radio buttons,
|
||||
input lines and list boxes (So you can take our code and use it on
|
||||
your applications).
|
||||
|
||||
- New option configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
Now the program options are configured with a dialog box.
|
||||
|
||||
- Chmod and Chown commands:
|
||||
|
||||
For changing permissions as well as ownership of files and
|
||||
directories, uses our new dialog manager.
|
||||
|
||||
- Color customization support
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can change the default color of the program with any of
|
||||
these:
|
||||
environment variable, Colors section in the init file (colors per
|
||||
terminal type) and command line.
|
||||
|
||||
- User menu and extension enhancements:
|
||||
|
||||
Execution understand the %t macro (tagged files).
|
||||
|
||||
User menu also has a new macro to let the user specify options.
|
||||
|
||||
You can hide and show entries in the user menus by using conditions.
|
||||
|
||||
Auto detect best match depending on a regexp.
|
||||
|
||||
- Viewer:
|
||||
Goto line command,
|
||||
horizontal scrolling,
|
||||
on the fly decompression (and we don't eat unneeded cycles of CPU),
|
||||
allow non gunzip operation.
|
||||
|
||||
- Internal move command:
|
||||
|
||||
Now, we don't rely anymore on system commands in /bin, so the
|
||||
program is more robust and is much faster. Bunches of code come
|
||||
from the GNU fileutils.
|
||||
|
||||
- The Tree view and normal views allows wrapped incremental searches of
|
||||
file names.
|
||||
|
||||
- Mask rename:
|
||||
|
||||
Now it's possible to do things like rename *.pas in *.bak
|
||||
|
||||
- Compare directories command
|
||||
|
||||
- Allow panels to be in Long mode without forcing the user to a single panel.
|
||||
|
||||
(You can even have two long panels).
|
||||
|
||||
- F10, C-g cancels as well as ESC ESC.
|
||||
|
||||
- Improved help system.
|
||||
|
||||
We updated and spelled the help system and added a lots of links.
|
||||
The Web page is constructed with the same tools.
|
||||
|
||||
- Allows tagging of directories:
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can copy, rename, move and delete complete directories. You
|
||||
are not limited anymore to files.
|
||||
|
||||
- View output (screen save/restore) on Linux console.
|
||||
|
||||
On old Linux systems, only b&w is supported, on newer Linux systems
|
||||
(1.1.67 and newer), we also support color screen save/restore and
|
||||
cursor positions.
|
||||
|
||||
- 8 bit clean support.
|
||||
|
||||
- Visual feedback while i-searching files.
|
||||
|
||||
- Much more intuitive, you have to use it.
|
||||
|
||||
- It's better than aspirin.
|
||||
|
||||
- New memory allocation debugger.
|
||||
|
||||
During testing time, we used a powerful memory allocation debugger,
|
||||
so the program will not eat all your memory, and will make a good use of
|
||||
your memory.
|
||||
|
||||
- Now it also runs on hppa-hp-hpux9, hppa-hp-hpux7, m68k-apple-aux and
|
||||
sparc-sun-netbsd1.0. The best platform to run it is Linux, of course,
|
||||
since that's where most of us develop it.
|
||||
|
||||
- Inode sort option.
|
||||
|
||||
- Nice progress status indicator.
|
||||
|
||||
We have two of them: a moving dash indicator and a progress bar
|
||||
indicator for file operations.
|
||||
|
||||
Version 0.15
|
||||
|
||||
- Uses GNU autoconf.
|
||||
Currently, it has been ported to this configurations:
|
||||
i386-*-linux1.0
|
||||
i386-*-linux1.1
|
||||

|
||||
Performance enhancements, now it's much faster.
|
||||
Works on systems without mmap.
|
||||
|
||||
- Mouse Support now also works on xterms.
|
||||
If you run in the Linux console, you will still need the gpm mouse server
|
||||
to use the mouse support, but if you use xterms, then you're lucky
|
||||
and can use the mouse support when using xterms.
|
||||
|
||||
- Help system and man page.
|
||||
Both were updated and has many more hypertext links inside, the
|
||||
help system can also be used with a mouse.
|
||||
|

||||
- Enhanced ftpfs:
|
||||
- Displays progress bars.
|

- Increase the directory cache timeout.
|
||||
- Cache flushing (C-r)
|
||||
- If you append a /~ to the directory, you will log into your home
|
||||
directory (this is done by default if you use the menus to connect).
|
||||
- More robust.
|
||||
- Subshell fixes (it should not hang any longer).
|
||||
- Fixes prompt handling for zsh and tcsh users.
|
||||
- Fixes variable expansion for tcsh (now you may edit files).
|

- Rewrote the sync code between the parent and child, should not hang
|
||||
any longer.
|
||||

|
||||
- Keypad handling enhanced:
|
||||
- Special key treatment for +, -, \ and now may be configure to
|
||||
only take place if you do not have a command typed in.
|
||||
- Now the + and \ bindings when ran on the Linux console work
|
||||
may use the keypad and M-+ and M-\ and leave the + and \ keys
|
||||
free.

|
||||
see the docs on C-x C-r, C-x C-l, C-x C-s keystrokes.
|
||||
- New macros:
|
||||
%b and %B return the basename of the selected filename
|
||||
%var{ENV-VAR} expands to the contents of ENV-VAR variable.
|
||||
- MC may be invoked as a viewer (mc -f flag).
|
||||
- Added Unicode support on the Linux console (run with mc -N)
|
||||
- Tons of bug fixes, the code is cleaner and hopefully
|
||||
- Allow a vfs pathname to be passed as a startup directory.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
release:
|
||||

||||
Sergey Ya Korshunoff Steven Hirsch, Thanh Ma and Torben Fjerdingstad.
|
||||
|
||||
Version 3.0
|
||||
|
||||
This has been finished:
|
||||
|
||||
- Virtual File System: You now can browse tar, compressed tar and
|
||||
file systems over the network as if they were local subdirectories;
|
||||
- Slang support, you don't need ncurses anymore (but you can still compile
|
||||
with ncurses, if you want).
|
||||
- New mc.ext format, for details see the sample mc.ext file provided.
|
||||
- Append option if you try to copy/move a file onto already existing one.
|
||||
- Internal cd command uses CDPATH variable if set (like in BASH).
|
||||
- Find file command is much faster.
|
||||
- External panelize command - finding files using unlimited number of
|
||||
criteria - actually spawns an external command and it can be find, awk,
|
||||
grep -l or anything else.
|
||||
- Learn keys makes setting up of mc on terminals with broken
|
||||
terminfo/termcap databases easier. It just asks you to press keys which
|
||||
are not working.
|
||||
- Advanced chown command.
|
||||
- C-PgUp and C-PgDn takes you to the previous and currently selected
|
||||
directory respectively on the Linux console.
|
||||
- You can choose between 7 data bits, iso-latin-1 (0-127+160-255) or
|
||||
other (0-255).
|
||||
- Confirmation for overwriting, deleting and exiting added.
|
||||
- Viewer has growing buffers.
|
||||
- Filename, username, hostname and variable completion (M-Tab) on all
|
||||
input lines plus command completion on appropriate places of command
|
||||
line.
|
||||
- Following of symlinks at changing directory.
|
||||
- Viewer now supports bold faces and underlines, and it fits the
|
||||
information on the screen better. Now you can also specify the starting
|
||||
mode for the viewer depending on the contents of the viewed file.
|
||||
- Mask rename and copy.
|
||||
- Colors now let you specify the intensity of the colors you want.
|
||||
|
||||
This is being worked on:
|
||||
- Virtual File System: FTP file system.
|
||||
- Tcl/Tk and XView versions of the program (preliminary versions are
|
||||
up and running).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Version 2.0
|
||||
|
||||
Now users are able to define their own display
|
||||
|
||||
- User defined display formats.
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can configure the file display to suit your needs.
|
||||
For example, you can say which information you want to see displayed
|
||||
instead of our defaults.
|
||||
|
||||
- User definable program layout.
|
||||
|
||||
Panels could be shown vertically or horizontally;
|
||||
panels could be different sizes, you can hide or show most
|
||||
program windows (command line, keybar or menubar).
|
||||
|
||||
- Output window.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, it's possible to see part of the last program output on the Linux
|
||||
console without having to switch screens via an option in the layout
|
||||
menu.
|
||||
|
||||
- New View modes:
|
||||
|
||||
Quick view: as you browse your files, each one is displayed on
|
||||
the other panel on the idle time.
|
||||
|
||||
Tree view: let's you browse your directories by traveling a tree.
|
||||
We have two traveling modes available. And the tree does
|
||||
not take your precious time: it's build on the fly, as you
|
||||
browse your disk (you can always loose your time if you
|
||||
want to :-).
|
||||
|
||||
Info view: Gives you information on the currently select file and
|
||||
the current file system as you move.
|
||||
|
||||
User view: Let's you define a directory listing and the format you
|
||||
want to use.
|
||||
|
||||
- New subshell support (concurrent shell execution)
|
||||
|
||||
The Midnight Commander will now spawn one copy of the shell, so you
|
||||
get better performance and you can use shell functions, define variables
|
||||
and execute complete shell commands. Supported shells: bash, zsh and
|
||||
tcsh. If your shell is not supported, then the old mode is still
|
||||
available.
|
||||
|
||||
- Dialog box manager
|
||||
|
||||
Almost all the new configuration options are configured with this
|
||||
new dialog manager, easy to use if you are familiar with dialog boxes
|
||||
in DOS and Windows.
|
||||
|
||||
Available widgets: check buttons, buttons, radio buttons,
|
||||
input lines and list boxes (So you can take our code and use it on
|
||||
your applications).
|
||||
|
||||
- New option configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
Now the program options are configured with a dialog box.
|
||||
|
||||
- Chmod and Chown commands:
|
||||
|
||||
For changing permissions as well as ownership of files and
|
||||
directories, uses our new dialog manager.
|
||||
|
||||
- Color customization support
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can change the default color of the program with any of
|
||||
these:
|
||||
environment variable, Colors section in the init file (colors per
|
||||
terminal type) and command line.
|
||||
|
||||
- User menu and extension enhancements:
|
||||
|
||||
Execution understand the %t macro (tagged files).
|
||||
|
||||
User menu also has a new macro to let the user specify options.
|
||||
|
||||
You can hide and show entries in the user menus by using conditions.
|
||||
|
||||
Auto detect best match depending on a regexp.
|
||||
|
||||
- Viewer:
|
||||
Goto line command,
|
||||
horizontal scrolling,
|
||||
on the fly decompression (and we don't eat unneeded cycles of CPU),
|
||||
allow non gunzip operation.
|
||||
|
||||
- Internal move command:
|
||||
|
||||
Now, we don't rely anymore on system commands in /bin, so the
|
||||
program is more robust and is much faster. Bunches of code come
|
||||
from the GNU fileutils.
|
||||
|
||||
- The Tree view and normal views allows wrapped incremental searches of
|
||||
file names.
|
||||
|
||||
- Mask rename:
|
||||
|
||||
Now it's possible to do things like rename *.pas in *.bak
|
||||
|
||||
- Compare directories command
|
||||
|
||||
- Allow panels to be in Long mode without forcing the user to a single panel.
|
||||
|
||||
(You can even have two long panels).
|
||||
|
||||
- F10, C-g cancels as well as ESC ESC.
|
||||
|
||||
- Improved help system.
|
||||
|
||||
We updated and spelled the help system and added a lots of links.
|
||||
The Web page is constructed with the same tools.
|
||||
|
||||
- Allows tagging of directories:
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can copy, rename, move and delete complete directories. You
|
||||
are not limited anymore to files.
|
||||
|
||||
- View output (screen save/restore) on Linux console.
|
||||
|
||||
On old Linux systems, only b&w is supported, on newer Linux systems
|
||||
(1.1.67 and newer), we also support color screen save/restore and
|
||||
cursor positions.
|
||||
|
||||
- 8 bit clean support.
|
||||
|
||||
- Visual feedback while i-searching files.
|
||||
|
||||
- Much more intuitive, you have to use it.
|
||||
|
||||
- It's better than aspirin.
|
||||
|
||||
- New memory allocation debugger.
|
||||
|
||||
During testing time, we used a powerful memory allocation debugger,
|
||||
so the program will not eat all your memory, and will make a good use of
|
||||
your memory.
|
||||
|
||||
- Now it also runs on hppa-hp-hpux9, hppa-hp-hpux7, m68k-apple-aux and
|
||||
sparc-sun-netbsd1.0. The best platform to run it is Linux, of course,
|
||||
since that's where most of us develop it.
|
||||
|
||||
- Inode sort option.
|
||||
|
||||
- Nice progress status indicator.
|
||||
|
||||
We have two of them: a moving dash indicator and a progress bar
|
||||
indicator for file operations.
|
||||
|
||||
Version 0.15
|
||||
|
||||
- Uses GNU autoconf.
|
||||
Currently, it has been ported to this configurations:
|
||||
i386-*-linux1.0
|
||||
i386-*-linux1.1
|
||||
mips-sgi-irix5.2
|
||||
mips-dec-ultrix4.3

|
||||
Hex mode.
|
||||
Hex searches.
|
||||
Now you can view compressed files (gzip, compress, zip, pack and lzh).
|
||||
Performance enhancements, now it's much faster.
|
||||
Works on systems without mmap.
|
||||
|
||||
- Mouse Support now also works on xterms.
|
||||
If you run in the Linux console, you will still need the gpm mouse server
|
||||
to use the mouse support, but if you use xterms, then you're lucky
|
||||
and can use the mouse support when using xterms.
|
||||
|
||||
- Help system and man page.
|
||||
Both were updated and has many more hypertext links inside, the
|
||||
help system can also be used with a mouse.
|
||||
|
||||
- If running on xterms, now you can see the output of the last program
|
||||
you ran by using the C-o key combination.
