YES! ❤️ Thank you, great job 🚀

See nothing major after some testing. One small thing though, if I set showActionBar to false, I still see the action bar partially below status bar. Do not think I have seen this before.

[yanex]

@IgorKrupenja Wow! This indeed looks nasty. I will fix it for sure.

[marvelph]

Thanks for the great software.
"0.8.2 EAP 1" may not have a functioning "core.ext.terminal.open".

[marvelph]

Assignments to the cursor keys may not be working.
The following configurations seem to be ignored.

"Shift+Left" "core.back"
"Shift+Right" "core.forward"

[reagle]

Assignments to the cursor keys may not be working.

Agreed, my following key assignments are not working as well:

    "Left" "core.go.up"
    "Right" "core.open"

Hey! Good to see an EAP! 🎉

My crash report, if that's helpful: https://privatebin.net/?7d3503908329304e#HTQuBzaamze8A15nJrbiato18fQMXBa6wSu5Rh3vf64T

macOS Sonoma 14.3.1

Happens when I source my .zshrc and use the https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/z#default command on some directories. Same with https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide

The command I found crashes it is z dow which should do cd ~/Downloads using z's autocompletion.

Somehow it also crashes when just opening "Download" folder from within Marta. Full Disk Access permission is granted.

[yanex]

Hi @prawwtocol! Thank you for testing!
Can you please attach the crash report to the comment, or send it to mail🦊yanex.org? The link expired so I cannot access the report.
I tested the z utility, and it works correctly in the EAP 1.

I can confirm the "0.8.2 EAP 1" may not have a functioning "core.ext.terminal.open" issue on Mac Ventura 13.6.6 (Intel) as well as Sonoma 14.4.1 (M2). I tried replacing the terminal app name with other apps from ~/Applications, /Applications and /System/Applications and none of them were "found". I also gave Marta "Full Disk Access" and that didn't help.

@yanex you are correct, it has expired, I'm sorry. https://pastebin.com/RphqmEFr

Launching applications via 'Gadgets' may not be working.

gadgets [
    {
        id "org.programmershigh.gadget.preview"
        name "Open External Preview"
        type "application"
        application "Preview"
        files [ "${active.selection.paths}" ]
    }
]

[prawwtocol]

so all the issues mentioned should be fixed!

Thank you, can confirm my issue is fixed

The folder shown in the screenshot contains the file 'test.txt' and the folder 'test.dir'.
If 'hideExtensions' is enabled, the folder extensions are not displayed anywhere.
It may be better to display the extension columns even for folders.
