Hi,

coming from the urwid page... maybe, I could ask some more questions
here :-)

I have trouble to adjust the bookmarks. Does this work yet?
Is there some switch to adjust the sorting depending on time, name
and
extension? And can I hide somehow the dot-config files?

Thanks in advance!
Fabian

Bookmarks are stored in ~/.xyzcmd/data/bookmarks file. This is a
plain-text file with format as following:
"name": "path" \n
where name is a name appearing in bookmarks window and path is where
to chdir to after entry in selected.
No visual bookmarks editing is available yet.

No, it is currently impossible, but it can be done for 0.0.3, you can
post an issue in project tracker -

> And can I hide somehow the dot-config files?

Not as permanent feature. As temporary solution you can first tag all
your non dot files:

Meta-+, then type a FSRule:

type{file} and not name{"^\\."}

And then filter only tagged entries by pressing Meta-g

Again, please post a feature request and I'll try to implement objects
hiding in 0.0.3 as well.

Thanks for the reply! I added some issues for new features :-)

Is it possible to define the number keys to the corresponding
bookmarks in the list?

Regards!

It is already done. After bookmarks window is shown, you can type the
corresponding number (say 15) and the press RETURN, and you will chdir
to this particular 15-th entry.
By the way all this also true for history (Meta-h) window as well.

Does it work withouth the popup-window as well? This would be a bit
faster, as most of the important bookmarks are known to me.

Regards!

It doesn't work without bookmarks window is shown. It can be done
though by adding new method to :ui:bookmarks plugin and then binding
new method to some shortcut, I'll think about how to do it in better
way.
