What is thunar?
===============

Thunar is a modern file manager for the Xfce Desktop Environment. It has
been designed from the ground up to be fast and easy-to-use. Its user
interface is clean and intuitive, and does not include any confusing or
useless options. Thunar is fast and responsive with a good start up time
and directory load time. Thunar is accessible using Assistive
Technologies and is fully standards compliant.

Release notes for 4.19.0
========================
[Please note that this is a development release.]

Development release on the master branch.

The waiting time for thunar 4.19.0 was rather long, because some
internal refactoring was required in order to properly introduce the
'expandable folder' feature. Besides countless other fixes and
improvements, as well the thunar thumbnail management got a major
refactoring/simplification.

Now that things have settled a bit and seem to be rather stable again,
here thunar 4.19.0. I hope you enjoy!
