@unpositive why I decided to start fman even though C1 exists: 1) C1 is not cross-platform 2) its UI is bloated 3) no plugin API

@m_herrmann Thank you for your reply! Plugins will be available in v2. "Non-cross-platforming"? – we confident that the choice of OS X and Swift was the right decision.

@westinlohne 😂 UI is fully customizable, so you can hide everything you want except for files list.

It's handy! Please add a proper onboarding to it too. I'm not sure what are the shortcuts and where to find them.

@farbodsaraf very good point. The shortcuts are listed here: https://fman.io/docs/shortcuts. I'll add some onboarding (https://trello.com/c/EmsWIZpL/85...)

@m_herrmann thanks, and a feature request: FTP profiles, so I can have my hosting on one pane and local files on the other. Similar to FileZilla but more user-friendly.

@farbodsaraf I understand you'd like FTP support. By "profiles" you mean a list of saved servers?

@farbodsaraf 👍 fman's features are priorities by user votes. The card for FTP support (which I've extended for profiles as you describe) is here: https://trello.com/c/75s5iREn/4-...

I like this but I don't get it? Why can't I open a file in it's default editor just by double click?

@vfdraganescu hm what else happens when you double click? Opening with the default app is definitely what should happen.

@m_herrmann I'm a mobile software developer and for iOS I use Xcode. Xcode creates foo.xcodeproj and fman is considering it is a folder and opens the bundle instead of opening it with Xcode. It would be nice to open with Xcode and on right click, select open as folder. Similar to what Finder app does.

@vfdraganescu I'm reluctant to do this. Eg there are also .app bundles. Working on fman.app, I always want to enter into them, not open the app. But! You could easily write a plugin that overrides the default behaviour: https://fman.io/docs/plugins-int... let me know if I can help.

@vfdraganescu I wrote the fman plugin that lets you open XCode projects: https://github.com/mherrmann/Mac...

@m_herrmann Thanks a bunch! Maybe a stupid question but how do I make fman to show hidden files and folder? I can see them finder but not in fman.
