SDL FileManager

[medmed]

Hi,

Please find attached bin (020/CF) and source code for a simple file manager write in SDL.
It's old school style and some non essential functions are not yet implemented.
I launched some programs with it and it do the job.
I guess it could be improved.
Mouse and keyboard are usable. Keep shift key pressed to switch to other functions.

P.S. I had to comment usage for

Code: Select all

		pwd = getpwuid(files_list[files_order[cursor_file]].st_uid);
		grp = getgrgid(files_list[files_order[cursor_file]].st_gid);

It seems that pwd->pw_name and grp->gr_name aren't relaible, may be pointing to NULL?

Hm, good as a proof of concept, but otherwise rather useless? As a SDL app, it requires GEM, and then even the simplest desktop for Atari should be better suited

Yes, partially agreed: As it provides a file manager it could be an easy starting point to implement ftps or nfsv3 client: I've libnfs implementation in mind

For nfs, it would make more sense to update the mint driver & server. Then you don't need a separate file manager

I agree but I don't have the skills for that. Best to start with the easiest and work your way up unless someone else looks into integrating nfsv3/v4 into the kernel.
