Yes, it is the libs and not GWorkspace.app's fault- I downgraded
GWorkspace.app to 0.6.5 for testing with the same results. :-(
Enrico, the GWorkspace.app in cvs is looking very nice. The "show
menu" is very interesting, however I still think a "list view" ala
Workspace.app would be nice. Also, I think implimenting the following
will make GWorkspace.app even better:
(1) Annotations for files and be able to search by it. This is the
main reason why I am still using TKdesk as my main file manager.
(2) Colourisation of files by user defined catagories ala finder.app.
(3) A PS inspector.
(4) Use "magic numbers" to determine file type if there is no
extension. I use Emacs-wiki extensively, thus I have a lot of text
files with no extensions- it would be nice to be able to preview
them in the "content inspector". Also, IMHO I think the text
inpector should be turned on for other types of text based files
with no "content inspector" yet, such as html and tex.
