File search in PorteuX
@roro,
I'm not in PorteuX at the moment, but you should already have "mate-search-tool". Porteus has it, but it doesn't show in the applications menu as the file /usr/share/applications/mate-search-tool.desktop needs to be edited to add the Xfce desktop......it currently allows showing only in Mate desktop on line 176 of the desktop file.
Code: Select all
OnlyShowIn=MATE;
EDIT: Yes, looking at the Xfce module shows that the PorteuX version has the same bug.

Additionally, you can access the search tool in Xfce by pressing F3 while using Xfce's file manager (Thunar).
@roadie, thanks for the bug report. It's fixed for the next release

XFCE's thunar has its own file search as is implemented in the context menu in Porteus.
or
opens the bulk rename dialog.
I agree that for XFCE version of PorteuX there should be a setting in thunar that gives the option via thunar's context menu (just like it is solved in Porteus by default)
Code: Select all
thunar -B FILENAME1 FILENAME2 […] FILENAMEn
Code: Select all
thunar --bulk-rename FILENAME1 FILENAME2 […] FILENAMEn
