Since it's that easy I would expecting the developers to actually do this. The advantage of a pdf manual is that it is easily printable and not the format itself in electronic form. I like to have a printed manual of products I register. It so nice to actually study the manual while not in front of...

After reading http://forum.altap.cz/viewtopic.php?t=2661 I would like to ask you: do you know/use LUA language ? ... Please share your thoughts That sounds like a very good idea.

One point, with a list of files or folders selected, right-clicking on the pane itself zaps the selection, with no way of recovering it. I imagine this is a bug, can't see why anyone would want this to happen. This seems a rather esoteric point of criticism to me. Right-clicking on neither a file n...

The german article looks good: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altap_Salamander :) Er besitzt einen ähnlichen Funktionsumfang wie der bekannte Total Commander. " It offers a range of functions comparable to the well-known Total Commander"? Is this really the best way to present such a capabl...

After a few seconds, the plug-in reports that it could not establish a connection.

The Altap Salamander entry on Wikipedia is marked for deletion. If you are old "wikipedian" and you are using also other file mangers (not biased toward either side), could you please review the Altap Salamander article to be unbiased as much as possible? It would be nice to keep this art...

The CheckVer plugin is working again. Sorry for having to report this, but it does not work for me in 2.5 final - it already didn't in RC3. Earlier RCs worked fine. The plug-in does not seem to connect to the website, there is no activity on the modem line during the check. Afer some seconds, an er...

FOR ALL 2.5 RC3 USERS What we want to do now is support Ctrl+A (Select All) in this edit line. We can also introduce a new option in the configuration to bring back old behavior.

But other fonts, ...
