file count on column list

I wrote a script that shows me how much files do exist on a given folder and if any, reports the amount of folders too. Then I realized I could have a column that tells me about the amount of files in ways of what "show folder sizes in file list" currently do.
This would be useful to quick compare what I have locally against what I uploaded through MediaFire, for instance, which displays the file count on each folder.

"Show item count with folder sizes" in Configuration > General no good?

I'd have to enable "folder sizes" too as it seems to not work standalone and folder sizes annoys me a bit. That's the problem.

I think you'd have to elaborate on that to convince Don to allow it to work independently.
P.S. As "Show item count with folder sizes" is dependent on "Show folder sizes in file list", it should be positioned as a child and greyed out if its parent is unchecked.

That's been done with a reason:
Code: Select all
* Configuration | General | Show item count: Renamed it to "Show item
count with folder sizes" and removed the indent.
Now it is also enabled if "Show folder sizes in file list" is OFF
because it also applies on View | Calculate Folder Sizes.
