Description Arcterex 2002-06-19 18:45:17 UTC 
In the .11x series, and pretty much forever previous, there was a drop down
box showing your last few searches in the groups.  In .12.0 there is no
dropdown, and as far as I can tell, no option to add/remove it.  This was a
very handy feature that would be nice to have back.
Comment 1 Charles Kerr 2002-06-19 18:48:12 UTC 
sounds good to me.
Comment 2 Charles Kerr 2002-07-03 19:24:35 UTC 
gqview has a similar feature and, like Pan, doesn't use gnome-libs.
Perhaps we could raid some code from there.
Comment 3 Charles Kerr 2002-07-28 04:04:06 UTC 
Bumping features requiring new code to 0.13.1
in order to get 0.13.0 out on schedule.
Comment 4 Bobby D. Bryant 2002-12-30 12:17:50 UTC 
This also shows up in the pop-up where your specify where to save
selected files (i.e., when you type ctrl-s after highlighting
something).  Previously the dialog showed the most recently used path
(as does 0.13.3 now), but you also had a drop-down that would show you
other recent paths.
Comment 5 Charles Kerr 2003-03-09 16:28:54 UTC 
We're flooded with bug reports, so it's time to put some
enhancements on the backburner.   The Pan team will reprioritize
these bugs after 0.14.0 is released.

Comment 7 Christophe Lambin 2004-02-04 18:23:03 UTC 
GtkCombo seems to be all we need. This requires only gtk, not gnome-libs
Comment 8 Charles Kerr 2006-05-04 16:44:45 UTC 
I agree that this is possible without Gnome.  All we'd need is
a GtkCombo and preference options to remember the last N commands.

IMO this is a sort of nice-to-have feature, but nothing important.
If a user believes in this enough and wants to contribute a patch
I'll accept it, but I don't want to write it.
Comment 9 André Klapper 2008-07-19 11:15:44 UTC 
Charles: Please do not abuse NEEDINFO for valid patches without asking a question to the reporter ("Can you provide a patch" is also not a valid reason to needinfo). Thanks.
