Hi,
First I must say, that it's great to see the developers ask their
(potential) users for input :-)) And the new filer looks very good.

Will the location bar be visible, when the tree is disabled in the
explorer like layout? So it would more look like the ROX layout, but
with a location bar?
What about a commander like layout (two panes)? That is one view I'm
really missing with ROX, xffm, and nautilus. This kind of layout really
speeds up your work, in mc (e.g.) it is only one hit at F5 to copy a
file or a whole bunch of selected files. With one pane, it is more
laborious.
Greetings,
Christian
