Chapter 5. TODO

This is the recent list of thing that will be done in future. If you have a suggestion which is not on the list you are welcome to contact the author.

TODO:

* use history for command completion, too

* use a real shell (like bash) optionally as backend

* Using gnome-libs call instead of starting gnome-brower via exec?
  [suggested by Kevin M Fox <kmfox@mail.bhi-erc.com>]

* using prefixes from control-center [suggested by Kevin M Fox
  <kmfox@mail.bhi-erc.com>]

* autodetection of non-X programs

	* Using ldd to do this? [suggested by Al Wold
          <alwold@inter-web.net>]

* The ability to paste into it like an xterm would be nice. [suggested
  by Brian J. Murrell <brian@interlinx.bc.ca>]

* better filename completion via [tab] [or is it good enough now?]

* make "/bin/sh" changeable [is this really needed?]

* completing documentation

* support of speech recognition ;-)

* Mini-commander as of the .99.3 tar files randomly shrinks itself
  very small, > if you pull it off and put it back, it goes to
  normal. [Fox, Kevin M <KMFox@mail.bhi-erc.com>] [Well, this is a
  feature ;-) which is especially useful for people with a vertical
  panel.  Perhaps I will make this an option.]



DONE:

* working command completion when using a prefix

* storing history

* Searchable command history, or a key/button to bring up a window
  with a "clickable" command history, or a pulldown or something like
  that.  [suggested by Brian J. Murrell <brian@interlinx.bc.ca>]

* storing preferences

* filename completion via tab

* preferences dialog

	* enable/disable clock

	* configure (one or more) web browsers

* history

* enable launching of non-X programs

* don't store dupes in history
