is V 1.0.0.0 available for download?
I'll happily buy X2 when it arrives but.... where is it?
Sorry if this is the dumbest question but I can't find it and all I can see is a download link to
http://www.ps.ic.ac.uk/~umeca74/x2lite_beta.zip
and all the other links are disable by inclusion of @@@ in them.
While I'm here I have one question on something that was in 2X but isn't in X2. I'm a very long-time user and always wrk in 2-panel mode. I have been doing the norton commander trick of if I want the right panel to be the same as the left and I'm in C:\blah\blah in the left I go Alt-F2 C <enter> and voila - this is not in X2 or is there some other way of doing it?.
Thanks

Thanks Nikos
It'lll take a while for my brain to unlink Alt-F2-letter I think I've been doing it for about 13 years.
ALt-ctl-shift-X gets me halfway there - I do get the correct drive but not the same subdirectory as the one active in the original window. Is that possible?
Is there going to be a way to customise the keyboard shortcuts so that I can use some of my old (bad) habits?
Good luck with releasing the pro version - I think I owe you the 20 eur for all the time I have been able to avoid windows explorer

Yes, never mind Nikos, he's with his head in the clouds over releasing the first version of X² this week. So he has lost oversight over the (many many) functions of his own app... apparantly
Fred has the simple (and right) answer to your 'problem'. If you want the same path browsed in your inactive pane as you are in at your active pane, just hit Ctrl+I and you're there!!
(Easy to remember too, the I stands for Identical)

Dumb questions are the ones that are never asked
From your answer Nikos???nikos wrote:although i am admitedly on a high and rather foggy this week, i believe that bobfrank got exactly the answer he wanted... he is an old hand indeed and knows the difference of root and current drive
I don't believe so. But Ctrl+I will do the trick however...

In retrospect, it sounds to me like nikos & bobfrank understand each other about a pane setup which is subtly different from what Ctrl+I produces.
It must be their words don't describe what they mean, only the familiar-to-them key-combo examples they give.
I don't follow it, either; but I am curious about what it is

Fred, I think this peace of text from what bobfrank is requesting
leaves no doubt about what he is trying to achieve. Your suggestion of Ctrl+I is right on the money in my view. But maybe we should ask bobfrank himself. How about it bob (or frank; no disrespect meant and no pun intended )bobfrank wrote:ALt-ctl-shift-X gets me halfway there - I do get the correct drive but not the same subdirectory as the one active in the original window.

ok, I figured out the button.
up vs dn is diff between "d:" & "d:\" ( remember DOS ? )
{where "d:" is generic logical drive designator}
& I agree that it sure seems like the request was how to get inactive pane to the equiv. of d: when active pane defines current wkg directory in d:
Best answer (per nar~ std) still seems to be Ctrl+I
