hey guys Smiley

I have a quick question ( FYI : I installed task-enlightenment on top of my ZenMini, so now im currently using enlightenment)..

Is there a way to make the default enlightenment file manager more user friendly ?  Like.. to have navigation keys, reload, etc .. just like Nautilus / Dolphin / Thunar, etc ?

It seems so limited -- I can only do very few things with it... open a folder and use <ESC> to go up 1 folder. Thats about it i think ?

I tried running Nautilus via command prompt with no problem and was able to do what I usually do (including <ctrl-L> and entering the smb://

FYI:  Enlightenment on ZenMini seems so blazingly fast !!!!!

Thanks guys Smiley

You mean like this?

How?

Load following modules: EFM Navigation and EFM Pathbar.
Go to settings panel / section files / File Manager and check these boxes in behavior: 'Open Dirs in Place' and 'Show toolbar'
Single click is also an interesting option if you like it.

Don't forget to apply the settings before closing the window.

Then restart enlightenment from the menu (no need to log out), open the filemanager, right click the toolbar en go 'set toolbar contents'.
Add the EFM Navigation and EFM Pathbar gadgets to the toolbar and resize place/resize them according to your needs.

The next development version of e17 will bring a much better filemanager, in meantime i'm happy with this workaround.
