Finally!

Changelog:

So... who is a bad enough dude to install it?

[JRD]

I've seen posted lot of application release on identi.ca lately.
I think it will be added when the -current branch will be available, that is very soon now.

Nope. This is a pre-release. Only stable, final releases will make it to the slackware repositories.

I guess they still have the same old XFCE bugs

[JRD]

which ones ? (it's not a troll, really. I don't see which ones…)

[thenktor]

I wonder if they've finally solved the Thunar utf-8 mount issues and the scrambled text in German logout dialog. Oh, and the copy&paste from Thunar to Desktop problem.

[JRD]

It's working ok in Thunar. I mean for UTF-8 I never see a problem.
About copy/paste from Thunar to desktop, yes it's not working. I never remark this before because I don't print anything on the desktop except the wallpapers.

Guys, damNageHack already solved it for you: Existing Unicode (UTF-8) letters are displayed as ? ????

Yes, somehow this bug was solved by the xfce folks this way. http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3792

There's also the Terminal tab name bug, and the most annoying of all - the thunar-volman bug that ERASES information in the config file instead of saving them!
