Great ;) I hadn't been noticing that until the previous mail, what I
want is the last behaviour (single-click, same window changing).

Ok, I'll ask about that to other users, toggle-option. I'd prefer
to single-click moving personally.

Well if I'm not wrong, I think default panes which xffm shows us are
double-treeview, though I'm right concerned with number I still can't
understand role of 2-panes (for easy to move across the different
filesystems or through the different directories within the same
filesystem).

I'm wondering about that, is there any plan xffm and thunar will be
put into the same repository at the same time? but I haven't have
details and consensus in this list, I can't say anything at present.

I see.

Okay, no problem.
