v0.4 - Pure Rust SSH stack

Features

• Pure-Rust SSH stack, replacing libssh2 — no OpenSSL, no async runtime
• ssh-agent authentication on Windows
• Dropped SSH connections re-establish themselves, keeping the current listing on screen
• Right-click context menu: Open, Open with default app, Reveal in file manager, Properties, Copy path, Rename, Move to Trash
• Reveal a file in the desktop file manager (Ctrl+Shift+O)
• Draggable divider between the panels; double-click to recenter
• Extend the selection with Shift+Up / Shift+Down
• Metadata preview for video files (duration and resolution)
• Copy files out of an archive onto a remote host
• macOS builds are signed and notarized, so they open without a Gatekeeper warning

Fixes

• Refreshing a remote folder keeps its contents on screen instead of blanking, and navigating back after a reconnect shows fresh data
• Preview files inside archives on remote hosts
• The cursor stays put after deleting an item, including on remotes
• Copying onto an existing local file warns before overwriting
• The activity spinner reflects real work — no more phantom spinning after browsing an archive
• The progress dialog names the operation (Copying, Moving, …)
• Text viewer no longer wraps long lines by default; the help screen scrolls to fit
• Remote errors are shown in plain words, not wire codes
• Wheel scrolling settles instead of bouncing back to the selection
• Dialogs are no longer dimmed by their own overlay
• Remote directory copies past 64 MB no longer corrupt
• Remote copies no longer fail when the command only writes a warning

v0.3.4 - Settings and robustness

Features

• In-app settings
• Breadcrumb path and per-panel status line
• Removable drives in Go To
• Stream remote media to the system player
• SSH host-key verification

Fixes

• GPU init on Windows
• Remote copy, SFTP disconnects, and large zip listing
• Image preview cache and oversized-decode OOM
• File operations no longer clobber existing files

v0.3.3 - Improved Go To

Features

• Improved "Go To" menu with grouped remote and local destinations
• Automatic whitespace display on selection only
• Editor mode now covers the whole window
• Archive navigation on remotes

Fixes

• Newlines in editor mode
• Leak in egui rendering

v0.3.2 - Elevation prompt and modification date

Features

• On access denied, offer to retry with elevated privileges
• Last-modified tab
• Prompt to elevate permissions

Fixes

• Better IO and remote error handling
• Update to egui-0.34

v0.3.1 - Windows and remote fixes

Features

• Remote search (Alt+F7 on a remote panel) using find / grep over SSH; results stream back and behave like a normal search folder
• Space key computes folder size on remote panels (via du over SSH)

Fixes

• Fix du byte count: exit_status() was read before wait_close(), making the result unreliable
• Refresh stale cached directories automatically
• Better surface IO errors
• Fix quick access on Windows

v0.3 Remote access, quick access, and better archive navigation

Features

• Remote browsing via built-in SFTP
• New syntax: Makefile, Dockerfile, CSV, SVG
• Defaulting to Ctrl+? schema on Apple devices
• Quick access menu with Ctrl+G
• Cache contents of parent folders

Fixes

• Fix archive navigation
• Avoid terminal in Windows

v0.2 Tabs and better images

Features

• Support GLES for older systems (separate build)
• Tab support (same keys as browsers)
• Self-update: fileman --update checks GitHub releases and replaces the binary in-place (compile feature self-update, enabled for tarball/zip/AppImage/MSI, disabled for deb/rpm)
• Introspection about async tasks displayed in F1 help screen
• Multi-stage JPEG loading for instant views
• New image formats: TGA, HDR, and DDS
• New syntax: RON
