Oh, and they may not look like much... But they will change color with your theme, so you never have to worry they'll blend with the background and they'll always fit in

@s33: Speak of the devil... Regarding hiding of the files, I'm really not sure how you would like it done. Its not a job for a file manager anyway... I could hide them in case, but any other FM would see them. you can't really hide anything on a normal file system. You'd need something more elaborate. (hidden partition or something.)

I'm not sure how hard it will be, but its on the roadmap. If it would be a good solution to just mount it on the FS, it wouldn't be too hard. But direct access.. don't know.

Edit: Was to fast to write this

Absolutely terrible.

There are confirmation dialogs on all operations in case and they will stay there. (possibly you could turn them off in the settings, but as much as I dislike confirmation dialogs, here they are really needed IMO).



Something like that might not be so difficult, calling the scp binary.. (unless there's a lib for that as well) But still there are other things that need to be done first.
