What about having an option in the config that would show multiparts archives ('j_alba.part1.rar', 'j_alba.part2.rar' etc.) as a single item that you could expand or collapse directly in the list view so as to hide or see the different parts ? This is similar to what many newsgroups progs do, or even not unlike code folding in text editors, if you like.
I think that would save a lot of space in the list view and this would also allow users to move, copy or delete whole multiparts archives in one fell swoop.

TheQwerty had already wished for something like this, but I said no. And I still do.

I maintain that CIG would be quite the unique (and useful) feature on the file manager comparison charts.
Which at least gave me hope that it might eventually happen. It's certainly more optimistic than this flat-out "no".admin wrote:Next life. Maybe.

"Certainly" is maybe a bit too strong. Frankly I would not bet on a next life.TheQwerty wrote:You actually said:Which at least gave me hope that it might eventually happen. It's certainly more optimistic than this flat-out "no".admin wrote:Next life. Maybe.

If FC Köln finish in top half of Bundesliga, will you implement it?

It would be cheap to say yes, because the condition will never be true, but even IF I don't see me doing this within the current millenium.Reve_Etrange wrote:If FC Köln finish in top half of Bundesliga, will you implement it?
