Hey all,
I just did a bunch of work on the desktop icon support (it's nice when
I'm in meetings but don't really need to pay full attention). Anyway,
if you want to give it a try, update to latest xfdesktop SVN, and select
it in the combo box in the desktop settings dialog. Note that you have
to have thunar installed at compile-time for this to work.
Things I know don't work but plan on fixing:
* Files don't remember where they're placed on the desktop between sessions.
* No 'open with other application' dialog yet (might not implement this).
* Copy/Cut on a file doesn't work (might not implement this).
* Drag-n-drop to move/copy files doesn't work.
* File properties dialog doesn't exist yet (might not implement this).
* Renaming a file causes it to change positions on the desktop.
* Probably a lot of other stuff.
Anyway, just letting people know if they want to play with it. If there
are things that are actually buggy, please let me know. If you just
want to complain that something doesn't work yet or isn't implemented, I
don't really care ^_^.
