Package: rox-filer
Version: 2.4-1
Severity: wishlist
Forwarded: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1531890&group_id=7023&atid=307023
Pinboard click commands are useful in situations when enabling the
forward-to-WM option isn't practical due to the WM not doing anything useful
with the information. Here, I'm using it to have right-click open the XFCE
menu via a lightly-hacked xfce4-menu-popup (since I happen to prefer
ROX-Filer over Thunar).
It may be worth tweaking the patch to provide a sensible default command to
launch a standalone popup menu program; if so, rox-filer should at least
recommend that package.
(The patch is tested with rox-filer 2.5.)
