The F9 audit found that the Panel menu (Left/Right) was missing
the MC-style VFS link entries (FTP link..., Shell link...,
SFTP link...). The ConnectionDialog already supported all three
kinds but the user could only reach them via the catch-all
Cmd::Connection which defaulted to FTP.
Add three new Cmd variants (ConnectFtp, ConnectShell, ConnectSftp)
that each open the ConnectionDialog pre-set to the matching
ConnectionKind. Wire them into the Panel menu (Left/Right)
between 'External panelize' and 'Reload', separated by a
separator so the group reads as a VFS submenu.
Tests: 1393 pass, zero warnings.
Press F9 in the viewer to toggle the menubar at the top of the
viewer. The menubar occupies the top row, and the viewer content
shifts down by 1 row when the menubar is open.
- Viewer::menubar: Option<ViewerMenuBar> field
- Viewer::render: calls mb.render() at the top when menubar is open
- Viewer::handle_key: F9 toggles, other keys route to menubar when open
- Viewer::execute_menubar_cmd: dispatches ViewerCmd to existing
viewer methods (ToggleHex, ToggleMagic, ToggleWrap, ToggleGrowing,
Search, SearchNext, SearchPrev, Goto)
Bookmark / file navigation / close commands are documented as a
planned follow-up — still reachable via their keyboard shortcuts.
Tests: 1393 pass, zero warnings.
Add a 6-cell mini-gauge at the right edge of the cursor row that
shows the cursor file's size as a fraction of the largest file
in the current directory. Uses block characters (filled/empty)
in the accent colour over the cursor background. Only renders
for non-directory entries on the active panel, so directories
and the '..' parent entry skip the gauge.
This gives an instant visual sense of relative file sizes
without needing to read the numeric size column.
Tests: 1388 pass, zero warnings.
Show the free-space percentage next to the disk indicator dot
so the user can quickly assess remaining capacity without doing
mental math from the size string.
Tests: 1388 pass, zero warnings.
Add a bright accent-coloured 1-column bar on the inner left edge
of the active panel. This is a premium TUI pattern (also used by
bottom, lazygit, btop) that gives a much clearer visual focus
indicator than a border colour change alone.
The bar uses the same active_border_color as the panel border so
it stays thematically consistent. The panel inner content shifts
right by one column to accommodate the bar without losing content.
Tests: 1388 pass, zero warnings.
When a critical operation fails (chmod/chown/rmdir/view), the status
line pulses its background between status_bg and theme.error for 400ms.
This gives the user immediate visual confirmation that something went
wrong, even if the message text is short or they aren't looking at
the status bar.
- StatusLine::set_error() — sets message + triggers flash
- StatusLine::error_flash_progress() — remaining fraction (0.0..=1.0)
- blend_bg() — RGB linear interpolation between two Color values
- rgb() — named-color → RGB tuple for interpolation
Wired into 4 critical error paths in dialog_ops.rs (chmod, chown,
rmdir, view). Other transient messages continue to use set_message().
Tests: 1388 pass (was 1384), zero warnings.
MC parity audit found 4 semantic bugs in dispatch_ctrl_x_followup:
l -> Link (hard link, was Cmd::Symlink)
s -> Symlink (absolute symlink, was Cmd::SymlinkRelative)
v -> SymlinkRelative (relative symlink, was Cmd::SymlinkEdit)
Added 2 ctrl+letter chord entries:
ctrl-s -> SymlinkEdit (edit symlink)
ctrl-p -> InsertOtherPath (insert other panel path)
Added 3 chord aliases for MC-compatibility:
p -> InsertCurPath (MC's PutCurrentPath)
r -> InsertCurFile (MC's PutCurrentLink)
ctrl-d, ctrl-s, ctrl-p handled via modifier check
Tests: 1381 pass, zero warnings.
Add 'Charset: UTF-8' to the editor status bar (TLC is UTF-8 native).
Upgrade status bar from a single-styled Span to a multi-segment Line
with per-segment accent colours so the status reads at a glance:
- modified flag: warning colour (bold)
- filename: accent colour
- position (Ln/Col): info colour
- tab/charset/eol labels: dim shadow colour
- mode tag: warning colour
Tests: 1381 pass, zero warnings.
Spawn file operations on background threads and show the existing
ProgressDialog (gauge, sparkline, ETA, cancel button) while the
operation runs. The event loop polls the result channel every frame
and applies the outcome when the thread finishes.
- DialogState::Progress variant added
- PendingProgressOp tracks kind/sources/destination/result channel
- spawn_op_with_progress() spawns thread + shows modal progress
- tick_progress() polls channel, handles Ok/Err/Empty/Disconnected
- ProgressDialog Cancel key (Enter) cancels the OpHandle
- Tab toggles focus on the cancel button
- Wired into app.rs event loop (re-render every tick while running)
Tests: 1381 pass, zero warnings.
W1: Fix 3 dead dialogs (DisplayBits/VfsSettings/LearnKeys) that could never close
- Capture handle_key() return value, close on Cancel/Confirm
W2: Implement Cmd::Suspend with actual SIGTSTP via kill -TSTP 4035172
- Add want_suspend field, ExternalAction::Suspend variant
- Drop TUI, send SIGTSTP, recreate TUI on resume
W3: Wire Connection dialog to Panel::navigate_to_vfs()
- Parse VFS URL, look up backend, redirect active panel
- Store Encoding dialog selection on FileManager.display_encoding
W4: Wire CK_EditUserMenu (EditorCmd::EditUserMenu)
- Opens user menu storage_path in editor via Editor::open()
- Fix unreachable!() in SaveBeforeClose prompt rendering
W5: Add ErrorOutcome::SkipAll variant + Shift-S keybinding
- Fix misleading doc comment about non-existent 'All' variants
- Add SkipAll button in error dialog render
Also: Fix all 41 compiler warnings (unused imports/vars, missing docs on
public API, remove dead SPECIAL_LABELS constant, remove unused viewer_bold)
1381 tests pass, zero warnings.
The getty binary opens a PTY via /scheme/pty during startup. Adding an
explicit requires_weak on 00_ptyd.service avoids races where getty runs
before the pseudo-terminal daemon is fully ready, which could delay or
prevent the login prompt from appearing.
G1: Error dialog Retry now re-invokes the stored file operation (copy/move/
delete) using the PendingErrorOp parameters. Previously Retry just logged
'Retry not yet wired'. Copy/move/delete error paths now create a
PendingErrorOp + ErrorDialog instead of silently setting a status message.
Skip/Ignore/Abort outcomes produce appropriate status messages.
G2: SftpVfs::open_write now returns a working SftpWriter that buffers writes
and flushes to the remote SFTP server via session.write(). Previously
returned VfsError::Unsupported. The SftpWriter buffers in memory and
writes on flush/drop, matching the existing open_read buffer pattern.
1369 tests pass (default and --features sftp).
- relibc: variadic sem_open and local fork path deps
- base: already at latest RedBear-OS submodule/base
- bootloader/kernel/libredox/userutils: pushed local path-dep fixes
- installer/redoxfs: diverged from remote submodule/*; local commits saved,
divergence to be resolved after build
- driver-manager: add syscall path dependency
- AGENTS.md: document +rb build metadata and no-patches-for-local-forks rule
- remove dead patch symlinks from recipes/core/relibc (path-source local fork)
