FILES

File type database file names must have the .db suffix.

User file type database files are read from the $HOME/.xfile/types directory. System file type database files are installed in PREFIX†/share/xfile/types directory.

Icons in XPM (X Pixmap) format are looked for in user $HOME/.xfile/icons and system PREFIX†/share/xfile/icons directories.

XFile stores some state information in the $HOME/.xfile directory. Files in the history sub-directory contain prompt history, and can be safely deleted.

†Platform dependent. (/usr on GNU/Linux, /usr/local on FreeBSD etc.)

CAVEATS

1. There is no xattr handling as of now.

2. The FileList widget ignores LC_COLLATE locale setting if caseSensitive and/or numberedSort are True.
