Directory preview

[John_C]

Directory preview, the same way as it already implemented for zip archives. When you select a directory, its contents should be shown in the preview pane, as plain text.

C:\preview_me contents:

preview_me.png (3.96 KiB) Viewed 1653 times

The preview itself:

dir_preview.png (6.19 KiB) Viewed 1653 times

Edit: Of course, it should be aaa\, bbb\, ccc\. That is, with backslashes.

Edit2: Just noticed that preview of zip files is not in plain text. In such a case, there are two options:

* to make both previews plain text. (To be honest, I think it is better.)
* to make both previews "native".

You might want to check out "hover box", which displays exactly what you're describing when hovering the icon of an item in the tree or list (depending on the settings).
