New features:

- New 'Toggle terminal' action (defaults to F12) that shows/hides a new terminal view.
Improvements:
- Symbolic links are extracted properly from zip archives to the local file system.
- Local symbolic links are packed properly into zip and tar archives.
- Unpacking of 7z archives is now faster and more reliable using a newer native library.
- The filename cell is rendered differently when renaming a file to reflect that the filename is editable when no text is selected.
- Keyboard shortcuts on macOS better align with the default keyboard shortcuts in Safari.
- The 'About' dialog indicates when the portable version is used.
- Commands that are executed from the 'Run command' dialog are now typed within a terminal that recognizes shell aliases.
- When referencing an SMB server (smb://<server>/), its accessible shares are listed.
- Bonjour services are initialized asynchronously in order to accelerate startup time.
- Quick search accepts diacritics that are typed using ALT+letter (like in Polish Programmer keyboard layout).
Localization:
-
Bug fixes:
- 'Move' action does not get stuck when an external file is dragged and dropped to the application.
- Symbolic links are extracted from archive files to the right location rather than to the destination base folder.
- Fix detection of the 'skopeo' binary that is used to connect to container registries.
- When extracting an item from an archive file to the archive file's parent folder, the archive file remains presented.
Known issues:
- Some translations may not be up-to-date.
- SMB support may not work properly on non multi-language JRE.
- 'Copy files to clipboard' not working with some applications (files are not pasted).
- Authentication issues when using several sets of credentials (login/password) for the same server.
- Untrusted HTTPS connections are allowed without a warning.
- Windows Vista/7: "java.net.SocketException: Permission denied: recv failed" error can appear when trying to access FTP
sites. This seems to be a Windows firewall problem, with a possible workaround:
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7077696- Need to enable NTLM authentication manually in order to authenticate to Samba >= 4.5. This is done by adding 'ntlm auth = yes' to smb.conf.
- macOS: issues with browsing Documents/Desktop/Downloads may be solved by resetting Security and Privacy settings.
See
https://github.com/mucommander/mucommander/wiki/Reset-Security-&-Privacy-Settings-on-macOS for more details.
- macOS: muCommander may not start on older versions of macOS due to incompatibility of the bundled JRE.
- macOS: "Do you want the application "muCommander.app" to accept incoming network connections?" dialog keeps popping
up on startup even if the dialog has been previously accepted (ticket #339), when 'Bonjour' support is enabled.
- macOS: some keyboard shortcuts may conflict with global system shortcuts.
