ROX-Filer 2.11 (the file manager at the core of the ROX desktop) has
been released.

You can install it by entering this URL into AddApp:

  http://rox.sourceforge.net/2005/interfaces/ROX-Filer

To upgrade:

- Right click on the application and choose 'Versions...' from the menu.
- Click on 'Refresh all now'.
- Ensure 'Help test new versions' is selected.

For more information, including package downloads, see:

  http://roscidus.com/desktop/ROX-Filer


[ This is basically all the bug fixes we've picked up over the last
couple of years... thought it was about time for a release... ]

Changes in 2.11:

- Converted from Glade to GtkBuilder.

- Fixed typo in German translation (Alek).

- "build" script runs autoconf and build the documentation if necessary. This
  is needed for Git checkouts.

- Don't lower panel when the pointer moves over an applet. Reported by mark76
  on IRC.

- Centre the pinboard image correctly if larger than the screen (Mohamed Amine
  IL Idrissi). Patch sent to Ubuntu anonymously and forwarded; see Ubuntu bug
  #615490.

- Depend on 0compile 0.19.1. Fixes bug using distribution-provided pkg-config.

- Added build dependency on pkg-config.

- Bugfix: unselect item when menu is closed. We used to listen for
  "unmap_event", but this is no longer emitted in recent versions of GTK.
  Switched to using "selection-done" instead. Closes #2925212 (reported by
  Barry Kauler).

- Added button to options window to create the 'rox' start up script (Stephen
  Watson).

- Updated Italian translation (Yuri).

- Updated Brazilian Portuguese translation (Sérgio Cipolla).

- Updated Spanish and Galician translations (Antonio Sánchez). The
  how-to-change-permissions explanation had a mistake that made the help window
  appear blank.

- Updated Spanish translation (Antonio Sánchez and Luis Felipe Abad).

- Turn the error on invalid line breaks in uri_list_to_glist into a warning
  (Stephen Watson). Firefox 3.5 upto and including 3.5.2 gets it wrong, but we
  don't want to stop drops working until they fix it.

- Eliminated the duplicated code between pixmap_background_thumb() and
  pixmap_try_thumb(). pixmap_background_thumb() now calls pixmap_try_thumb() to
  get from memory or load from cache (Stephen Watson).

- Added option to place panels under the control of the _NET_WORKAREA property
  (Stephen Watson). Note it only checks the work area at the point it creates
  the panel.

- Fix bug in XDG MIME magic: if two matches at the same priority returned
  exactly the same type, it was considered a conflict (Stephen Watson).

- Newer versions of GTK+ issue warnings if a spin button has a non-zero page
  size (Stephen Watson).

- If a file has a thumbnail, display it in the infobox (Stephen Watson).

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
