crazy idea, real tree files

:idea:
the file tree is inverse to the schema of a real tree, ie the root goes first and the branches down, why not think bottom to top?

Ha, wonderful. I like your crazy thinking. :tup:

But to do this would take about 2 days of my life, and I wonder if anybody would use it...

Anyway, how did you create that screenshot? Manual work?

Imagen by hand (right) :mrgreen: are two days of your life, but not lost, because it is fun to program.

the pc terminals were created to show the information from top to bottom, therefore, the custom of showing everything from top to bottom. Why not give a different touch to xyplorer, instead of imitating as everyone does

Well, also writing is usually top to bottom, which has reasons in our anatomy I guess. Not a good idea to work against anatomy.

Yes, programming is fun, but guitar is fun as well.

Argh - no, I'm learning english vocabulary! 8) That idea of "weird anatomy" was so dominant, I guess I wanted to misunderstand this!

writing is one thing, visualizing is another, we can see the file tree perfectly from bottom to top

the Arabic language is written from right to left, the English drive on the left, the RPN and RPL is an alternative form of programming

«X 1 == IF THEN" Equal to one "END»

Well, I think I have done enough in that direction by adding the Klingon localization. ;)

Bottom to top and right to left writing is reality, Klingon's are fantasy.

And...if I may add, "Klingon's" are a nightmare! Klingons are much easier to cope with :maf:

(Sorry, couldn't resist - I am allergic to apostrophed plural-s)

The apostrophe means belonging to (or anything related to) a Klingon, not the plural of Klingon. Both my brothers were English teachers, and one became a lexicographer when he retired from teaching. I could also have used Klingons' (meaning belonging to Klingons).

Ok, I'm not a native speaker, I admit - but then it sounds like a word is missing when you write "Klingon's are a fantasy", like "Klingon's legends are a fantasy"...?

Certainly if I'd used Klingons' is a fantasy it could mean Klingons existence is fantasy. English morphology is not easy, or logical at times!

That's to-days English lesson!!
