Dualion 0.1.2

A big one: remote file systems, a TC-style Network place, Explorer's context menu on Windows and a pile of fixes.

New

Remote file systems. Every one opens in a panel like a folder. Copying works between any two places (also remote → remote), as do moving, renaming, deleting, queues, checksum verification, previews and opening files.

  • SFTP (SSH):
    • sign-in with a key file (with passphrase), the SSH agent / Pageant, ~/.ssh keys or a password;
    • server keys are checked against known_hosts: unknown keys show their fingerprint, changed keys are refused.
  • WebDAV / WebDAVS: Nextcloud, ownCloud, Synology, SharePoint… You can enter a full URL.
  • S3 and compatible storage: AWS, Cloudflare R2, Backblaze B2, Wasabi, MinIO. Buckets appear at the root and big files are uploaded in parts.
  • Found automatically in the Network menu:
    • Android devices over ADB;
    • phones and cameras over MTP (Windows);
    • Docker / Podman containers;
    • rclone remotes (Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, Mega, pCloud… 70+ services).

Network place (like TC's Network Neighborhood):

  • computers on the LAN → their shared folders → connect;
  • opens instantly with known computers, connected servers and Windows network shortcuts, while discovery runs in the background;
  • Windows asks for credentials with the system dialog, macOS connects SMB shares with Finder's dialogs.

Context menu:

  • Windows: right-clicking files shows Explorer's own menu, with shell extensions, Send to, Open with, 7-Zip, OneDrive and so on. Dualion's commands are in a submenu.
  • macOS: a Finder-style menu with Open With listing the apps that can open the file.

Tabs:

  • tabs can be dragged to reorder them; locked and unlocked tabs each stay within their own group;
  • lock a tab to a folder: browse anywhere inside it, and switching back to the tab returns to that folder.

Other:

  • Space marks the item and moves to the next one; hold it to mark a run.
  • CorelDRAW previews show every page of multi-page documents.

Fixed

  • Opening folders:
    • a quick double click into the next folder no longer needs a mouse move first;
    • Enter or a double click no longer "does nothing" when the folder changes on disk at the same moment.
  • Pressing Backspace several times quickly goes up each time.
  • Dragging files out of Dualion no longer crashes the app on some systems, such as over Remote Desktop or with network drives.
  • Windows icon is now full size, like other apps.
  • Network menu: no more double separators.

Downloads

Platform File
macOS 11+ (Apple Silicon & Intel) Dualion_0.1.2_universal.dmg, signed and notarized by Apple
Windows 10/11 (x64) Dualion_0.1.2_x64-setup.exe (recommended) or Dualion_0.1.2_x64_cs-CZ.msi

Windows: the installer is not code-signed yet, so SmartScreen may show "Windows protected your PC". Click More info → Run anyway. If the old icon still shows after updating, run ie4uinit.exe -show or restart Explorer to refresh Windows' icon cache.

ADB, Docker and rclone are used when installed; Dualion finds them even outside PATH.
