build 2412 - WebDAV support

Post by mike » Thu Sep 07, 2017 6:57 am

Hi, folks!

NC has finally got a support for WebDAV protocol.
It means an access to a huge variety of different services, e.g. Box.com, Yandex Disk, ownCloud etc.
There still might be some rough edges since this protocol is a mess, so please don't hesitate to report issues if any.

Other changes include:
  • Shit+cmd+[] shortcuts can be customized now.
  • Optional shortcuts to focus a certain tab.
  • Find Files dialog got an option to search for directories only.
  • Support for removal of non-empty directories (currently used in Dropbox and WebDAV).
  • Improvements in a behavior of an in-place item renaming.
  • Support for reporting folders sizes upon fetching a listing. Currently used in archives and in WebDAV(if the server provides such information).
The build itself:

Feedback is appreciated.

First impression of WebDAV support is good, thanks for adding it.

Quick thought on hotkeys: the hotkeys list in NC's Preferences has become quite long. Maybe add a text input box to filter for relevant entries? Like in NC's menu bar (Help -> Search). That way, if you want to change some hotkeys for tabs, you enter "tab" and only get those entries.

Yeah, I absolutely agree. This simply needs to be written, and it's a quite boring and tedious task to do.
