  • scroll on action panel

  • integrated software center: application app --> one click uninstall --> click run

  • search on type: dash/hud like location bar

    • application
    • file search
    • recent history
    • most used
    • inside current directory

  • hide next/prev if not available

  • hide up if in /home/leo or /root

  • try async.sortBy for FileSorter.js

  • try async.some for filtering

  • second section for hidden files under non-hidden files

  • fix reflow issues when resizing

    • location bar --> abs pos + overflow
    • files flickering --> abs pos + overflow
    • make content (scroll pane) span entire width --> avoid js resizing and put sidebar as overlay on top with content padding left
    • location bar / button container --> table cell display for dynamic resizing

  • tabs

  • watch file system changes

  • fix race condition for addbookmarks/opendir --> addbookmarks callback --> markbookmark

  • double check select implementation --> live select file items on selection overlay move --> to know better what your are selecting --> fix scrollable selection

  • add directory/history memory --> view --> scrollbar position --> last selected item (for better keyboard navigation)

  • fix row/tile view --> nde-file add row view --> add UI view button to toggle between row/tile view --> find efficiant way for switching view ( css class instead of looping through fileElement and setting attribute - might require shadow: selector from top level)

  • fix slow loading of big directories (e.g. /home/leo/p)

  • faster mimeType implemenation --> cache --> extension based mimeType detection (node mime module)

  • add selection actions --> delete multiple files

  • release selection action (click on empty space)

  • add copy/paste support

  • open with support

  • dir menu (paste / open in terminal)

  • grouped view ( regular / hidden group )

  • undo/redo ceate/delete files/folder

  • uninstall apps via application view --> pacman -Qo $(which /usr/bin/firefox) // query package name via executable / desktop file name is usually the same as the name of the executable. Also check TryExec for executable path --> pacman -Qo /usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop // query package via .desktop file

  • execute .desktop files: --> 1) http://askubuntu.com/questions/5172/running-a-desktop-file-in-the-terminal --> ISSUES! --> check comments --> find solution via .destkop spec / gtk implementation --> 2) http://askubuntu.com/questions/471282/is-it-possible-to-execute-a-desktop-file-from-a-quicklist --> gtk-launch

  • implement File types

    • File
    • DesktopFile
    • Directory
    • SymLink

  • remove bookmark type --> only on front-end: nde-bookmark (instead of backend bookmark file) --> add different renderer

  • better mime lookup: find single process solution for mimedb command --> see 'file.js' 'getMimeType' function --> glib mime-server solution: --> https://developer.gnome.org/gio/stable/gio-GContentType.html#g-content-type-get-mime-type --> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1629172/how-do-you-get-the-icon-mime-type-and-application-associated-with-a-file-in-th/2170880#2170880 --> possible directly combineable with icon-server to lower used resources ...but might block more... maybe better in separate server process. Also e.g. for sorting we might not need an icon but only the mimetype.

  • desktop file open error handling

  • make action sidebar scrollable

  • back-button on left side of files window

  • read NoDisplay to determin if App is hidden or not.

  • distribute files on entire width --> on resize calculate available columns. If extra space --> adjust margins --> looks nicer if no big space on right edge at action bar

  • implement recent:// spec

  • implement trash:// spec

  • drap/drop files support

  • fuse mount archives

  • fuse mount torrents?

  • mime-type determination: file --mime-type FILE_NAME file -i FILE_NAME

  • mimetype related implementations in: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/shared-mime-info-spec/ --> under 'Current implementors'

  • check gvfs and gio methods --> https://developer.gnome.org/gnome-vfs/2.24/gnome-vfs-2.0-gnome-vfs-mime-database.html

  • fix keyboard navigation --> [x] for circular current selection --> [ ] scroll into view

  • fix styles

    • hover + current
    • selected + current
    • hover + selected + current --> hover: brighteness filter --> normal: grey --> current: blue --> selected: red --> current + selected: purple (mix red+blue)

  • fix bookmark implementation --> issue with makeCurrent

  • fix makeCurrent --> single point of entry

  • fix breakcrumbs --> way to access home/root and applications:// from location input --> buggy/conflicting key bindings --> cleaner attribute based api --> set user-home path --> set home icon --> set root icon --> green protocol badge

  • add nde command input --> with terminal icon as protocol
