• The copy/move progress dialog window has been made wider to up to 2/3 of screen width; • The application will now ask for a file name before creating a new file in the editor; • The extended mouse protocol SGR-1006 is now supported instead of URXVT-1015; • Users can now skip directory scanning before file operations; • Jump support has been added to the target line in some external editors and viewers.
