Is there still anyone with a good knowledge of C++ who has the time and motivation to collaborate on an open source version of Salamander?

Nothing groundbreaking really, just a few hours of work. Used W10+ UTF-8 support, see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windo ... -code-page

But it works surprisingly well... promising.

I am looking forward to it. There are not many situations where I really NEED it, but it would be a very welcome feature. Plus the long path support. 👍

I'm not programming in C++ (maybe I'll have to in the future) but I remember offer by WaldemarH, who said it is his speciality. Perhaps you could try to contact him.

Hi guys

Yes, I could probably squeeze a few hours per week to push AS a step further... depending on it every day. :)

Will PM Jan about it.

C/C++/C#
Nowadays I do not have too much spare time but few more hours of the coding per week will not kill me for sure.
And many thanks for this great filemanager.
