After eight months of development published release of the console file manager midnight commander 4.8.29 , distributed in the source texts under the GPLV3+ license .

The main list of changes :

  • Added new filters of the contents shown in the panel: showing only files, cutting off the mask without taking into account the register register and the use of shell templates.
  • Implemented possibility continued copying after interrupting the operation (for example, after an accidental pressing of ESC during copying).
  • To select the sorting order (operation “Sort Order”), the menu is returned to the hot key “S” (in the last issue, it was replaced by “O”), and the hot key for “SFTP Link” was replaced by “S” with “N” N “.
  • Added support for cross-compilation with different ways to Perl during assembly (“-Build”) and execution (“–host”).
  • Added support for systems based on the Apple M1 chip.
  • The MC.EXT file is converted to INI format and renamed MC.EXT.ini. The use of a new format made it possible to realize a more complex logic of choosing handlers.
  • The syntax backlighting files are moved to the catalog ~/.local/share/mc/syntax /.
  • In the built -in editor, the syntax is impleased for the Toml format and files with the rules privoxy . Improved backlighting multi -line blocks in files in YAML format.
