Description Daniele 2001-01-27 19:48:12 UTC
Package:  gtk+
Severity: wishlist
Version:  1.2.8
Synopsis: file selection don't list dot file
Class:    change-request

Distribuzione: Debian 2.2
System: Linux 2.4.0-test1 i686 unknown
C library: C library 2.1.3-10
C compiler: 2.95.2
glib: 1.2.8
GTK+: 1.2.8
ORBit: ORBit 0.5.1
gnome-libs: gnome-libs 1.2.1
libxml: 1.8.7
gnome-print: gnome-print <none>
gnome-core: gnome-core 1.2.0


Description:
Dot file (.file) and directory are not listed by file selection dialog.
It work of course write . and then press tab ...

Instead of adding this by hand (by developer), it should exists an
option
when configure gtk (or at least gnome) for deciding what kind of file
had to be displayed
(it's possible a per apps option too ...)

Option will go in gnome control center?? (and gtk?)

Probably won't happen for 2.0, but need to fix the file selection.
Maybe a few small tweaks for 2.0 wouldn't be out of line (directory
selector, selector with dotfiles...)
