Make Konqueror's status bar (when using as a file manager) display the used and total available space of directory
by qingru＠freemail.hu 10 Dec '21

I was not sure where to post this thread: on tde-users or on tde-devels. But since this is more a feature request I decided to publish here. If for feature requests is this the right place, I am not sure... Konqueror is quite a good application, but as a file manager I miss an important feature, which even the simplest file managers (like PCManFM) has: to show on status bar the used and total available space (both value!) for the current directory. Konqueror instead shows "(... Total)" (the total size of files, but not incuded the contents of subdirectories), which almost says nothing. It is true that I can find what I want if I right click and select Properties (Size, Free disk space), but this is very unconvenient. I do not want to click for this, I want the file browser display this permanently on statusbar, to know what is the situation in that directory (how many free space still it has). Maybe is there a setting for this, at least I coud not find it... So, this is a feature request: make Konqueror to show these values on status bar (of course in human readable format and shortened, for detailed info is appropriate the "Properties") instead what it shows currently.

cmake3 - Centos7
by gregory guy 09 Dec '21

François We recently had to move from minimal cmake version 2.8 to 2.8.12 because cmake-3.19 was giving warnings about some deprecated features in cmake-2.8 (still available in cmake-2.8.12) bound to be remove in the future. The oldest cmake version provided with Ubuntu-16.04 is cmake-3.5.1, I see that Centos7 ships with cmake-2.8.12 but cmake3-3.17.1 is available from EPEL. Is It a problem in your rpms workflow/packaging stuff to switch to cmake3 from EPEL? I'm asking you this because I'd like to rise minimal version for cmake based on the oldest distro that Slavek package, at the moment Ubunty-16.04 with cmake-3.5.1, afterward Ubuntu-18.04 with cmake-3.10.1, etc.

Maybe just put shades on him. He always was a reasonable mascot -- and a tweak to him would allow a change-as-time-permits and a per-application and help file basis, rather than an all at once. Be wary of putting too much effort into something that does not improve the usability, functionality or maintainability of TDE. Too many projects have fallen off track worrying about the fluff. (and if you don't recall the Herculean amount of effort Darrell put into the simple K->T graphic change in the 2012 timeframe - a mascot change -- that actually changes all the places where Konqui appears -- will take just as much. -- David C.

Mascot Contest submission -- Tristian
by Mavridis Philippe 04 Dec '21

Hello to all, I'm submitting my entry for the mascot contest (maybe a little early). It was designed with Inkscape 0.92.5. The source (vector) files are included in the archive. I proposed earlier (in regard with the winner mascot) that a differently inspired variant be used for the about dialog in every release. Thus, I included 2 variants inspired from science fiction (the Hitchhiker's trilogy and the dreaded Trinitator ;-) ). I'm open for comments/suggestions. -- Philippe
