Just landed on the development branch: tabbed interface for the internal viewer. Instead of opening ever new windows the internal viewer now keeps everything neatly organized in one window, one tab per file.
The viewer is now a component which can be reused elsewhere. The idea is to implement a Quick View feature: a viewer showing up in a panel, displaying whichever file is selected in the opposit

Copying an existent library is far from ideal and this step hasn’t been taken lightly. My trial balloon was the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog which I reimplemented twice: once with Relm4 and another time with our own similar library. One issue that popped up was the `view!` macro of Relm4: it tries to do everything and maximally compact, resulting in a complex syntax very unlike Rust. Our `with!` macr

In order to make viewer’s keyboard shortcuts configurable and Quick View feature realistic I find myself refactoring main window actions, >2k lines of code – again, I’ve already done that four months ago. This is unfortunately an annoyingl…

Concerning those system libraries: libvte has been an issue for the portable builds so far, the other required libraries being pretty much universally available. So I’ve now managed to package libvte with the portable builds, this should s…
And the portable builds just got a little bit… well, more portable. Our plugins depend on some Python modules, and these modules are now being packaged into the portable builds. So plugins now work out of the box without requiring any chan…
We finally have zero compile warnings, zero clippy warnings and zero documentation warnings in the codebase! 🎉
And to celebrate the occasion CI checks for these warnings have just been added, making sure it will stay this way.
Either way, we now have this framework which is currently used for the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog but will hopefully be used consistently throughout the codebase at some point. It’s great that Relm4 demonstrates how it can be done better, a…
Last but not least, there are serious concerns about the state of the Relm4 project. It appears to be in maintenance mode, not even keeping up with Gtk changes. While the core code is well though out, other parts of the library are inconsi…
Our code also takes some shortcuts which probably make it worse from the conceptual point of view but simpler to use. For example, parent components can access the data of subcomponents directly. We don’t quite separate code modifying the …

We will be providing portable builds for future releases of course, starting with Gnome Commander 2.2.
Decoupling various Gtk mechanisms from the operating system wasn’t easy but so far it seems to work nicely. I’m only aware of one issue:…
