|
can display those numbers; |

|
16 |
|
mount point and new trash menus; |
|
17 |
|
- command-line mode now has Ctrl-X prefixed keys that insert parts of |
|
18 |
|
filenames and filters (kind of Ctrl-R in Vim); |
|
19 |
|
- bookmarks are now timestamped for more predictable management (mainly |
|
20 |
|
deletion and overwriting); |
|
21 |
|
- for security reasons remote commands are now disabled at configuration |
|
22 |
|
stage by default; |
