News:

2009-11-15 
  • After long break, some news. Still, this project is one man show so don't expect quick replies from me or rapid development. More developers are always needed. That said, this project is not dead in any way, just little slow progressing.
  • Released version 0.6.70 with a bunch of fixes and little improvements. This release is focused on stability and usability, not many new features. Most important, we have an icon now!
  • PowerPC compatibility is on a good level now but you need a fixed FPC compiler (latest unstable trunk should be fine). Tested on iBook G4 running Fedora 12, only the ZIP plugin doesn't work - a bug in ZipArchive probably. As long as Fedora officaly ceased to support PPC archs, I'm not sure if I'll be able to test new versions.
  • 2008-10-03 
  • Released version 0.6.50 with tons of fixes
  • Introducing new GVFS plugin, considered now as main plugin for accessing network resources. You will need system glib >= 2.16.0 and gvfs libraries. The old gnome-vfs2 plugin is scheduled for removal in next version.
  • Tux Commander packages are now officially part of Fedora 10 distribution.
  • 2008-06-15 
  • For those of you having UTF-8 filename issues, there's a new snapshot you can try (v0.6.44): http://tuxcmd.sourceforge.net/files/snapshots/
  • Announcing new GIT repository, available at git.bzatek.net. Check the development page for details. (Avoid doing often repo cloning, it's hosted on my home ADSL line.)
  • 2008-06-01 
  • Released new development version (0.6.36), compiled with FreePascal by default (i386 and x86_64 ports available). Although it's marked as development snapshot, it's pretty stable and recommended for download. Quite a lot of changes in this version.
  • FreePascal port is almost finished, some minor things are left to be solved. Kylix is planned to be supported as long as possible.
    Since FreePascal also supports MacOS X target, if you donate me a Mac machine, I can create the port for you ;-) FreeBSD and Sparc ports might be possible too.
  • New GVFS plugin is under development, planned as replacement for the old gnome-vfs plugin (gnome-vfs is getting deprecated in modern distros).
  • 2007-08-19 
  • After long time a new stable version 0.5.103 has been released. This is the last version in the 0.5.x series. The upcoming development series will bring many new features, including FreePascal port and new VFS API version as well as some new VFS modules
  • Gentoo ebuilds are now available for: tuxcmd-bin (recommended), tuxcmd-modules (recommended) and tuxcmd-modules-bin. Thanks all for inspiration in the bug #33478
  • Found this icon on gnome-look.org while browsing Google. Interesting :-)
  • 2006-07-08 
  • Sorry for the long time between updates but I am rather busy with my private life and can't spend much time on development. I will keep this site running with occasional updates however I'm still looking for someone to take ownership of this project.
  • For those you are looking for new versions, please keep watching this directory: http://tuxcmd.sourceforge.net/files/snapshots/. Beware this location contains testing development snapshots which may contain flaws.

  • 2005-02-08 
  • I decided to release another bugfix version of Tux Commander - 0.5.70.
  • My apologies to anyone who had troubles with the plugins from binary package, they have been compiled with gcc 3.4, which requires a new library not present on most of the systems. All plugins are now compiled back with gcc 3.3 to ensure compatibility.
