			<description><![CDATA[<p>I&#039;ve been using XFCE4 + Arch Linux since October 3, 2011 now and very happy with it. Here is summery of features that has been improved and features I would still like to see in the future. Possibly XFCE 4.12 would be awesome.</p><p>&quot; Thunar, in-line editing option of files and folders, for example like nautilus does. &quot;<br />Still waiting on this feature, thunar still uses this old style dialog popup.</p><p>&quot; Thunar, folder size option, for example like in nautilus. &quot;<br />There is no column for folder size or item count. Would be very nice feature to have.</p><p>&quot; Thunar, option to customize toolbar, like move buttons etc. &quot;<br />Even throught &quot;Location Selector&quot; and &quot;Side Pan&quot; has been improved in latest version, still no good toolbar.</p><p>&quot; Thunar, option to change font family and size, seperate from default XFCE font config. &quot;<br />Even when you using zoom feature, it wont zoom in font to be bigger and of course no font config options.</p><p>One option that I&#039;m sure many of us been waiting for was &quot;TABS&quot;. I&#039;ve found this by acident lol by pressing CTRL+T and was very suprised to see it. Since I haven&#039;t think of even checking under &quot;File&quot; hahaha. Thank you so much for this feature.</p><p>&quot; Keyboard Layouts Widget, option to change/install any custom icons for flags with png support. &quot;<br />No offance but default icons is very uggly and big. Something like FamFamFam icon flags would be much better for some of us.</p><p>&quot; Apperance, options to install new themes/icons/fonts and even windows manager themes easier from Apperance window. &quot;<br />Still not possible without having to login to root and adding this manually. O_o</p><p>&quot; XFCE&#039;s own Login Manger kind of like Slim would be very nice.<br />Still using slim, default xfce login manager would be nice.</p><p>Everything else, so far so good at least for me. I&#039;m very happy with XFCE even without those above tweaks. Again thank you for all the hard working people that make XFCE possible. Looking forward to XFCE 4.12</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>I&#039;m not a GNOME refugee.&#160; When I was just experimenting with Linux, you know, like you do, I just found I rather liked Xfce because of little touches, like right clicking the mouse anyhwere on the desktop to bring up the Xfce System Menu.</p><p>Like you, one thing I&#039;d really like to see in Thunar is tabbing.&#160; Rather than having to open a separate Thunar window for each and every folder, if you&#039;re trying to look at multiple directories for whatever reason.&#160; Tabbing is one feature I really like with the PCManFM file manager in LXDE.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<p>I&#039;ve been Gnome2 user since I&#039;ve started using linux few years ago. After all that Gnome3 crap, I wanted to try something else. Everyone who hated new Gnome3 recommended XFCE. So I&#039;ve tried it and now think that its much better then even Gnome2 lol I absolutly love XFCE now. Thank you for developing this desktop environment. I can&#039;t wait to see what else XFCE5 will bring now <img src="http://forum.xfce.org/img/smilies/smile.png" width="15" height="15" alt="smile" /> There is few things I would love XFCE to have but this is just personal preference and not a big deal if it won&#039;t be implemented in the future.</p><p>[Thunar]<br />-- in-line editing option of files and folders, for example like nautilus does.<br />-- folder size option, for example like in nautilus.<br />-- option to customize toolbar, like move buttons etc.<br />-- option to change font family and size in thunar, seperate from default XFCE font config.<br />-- bookmarks menu, I know there is sidebar bookmakrs but this would be a plus option.<br />-- tabs would be very good to have, but I read some where else on the forum that this will never happen.</p><p>[Keyboard Layout]<br />-- option to change/install layout flag icons with support for PNG icons.</p><p>XFCE own Login Manager kind of like GDM and KDM, but light version just like XFCE it self. Currently I&#039;m using SLiM.</p><p>[Power Manager]<br />-- Battery icon kind of like a battery. So it will show in real time how much UPS power is left.</p><p>[Apperance]<br />-- options to install new themes/icons/fonts and even windows manager themes easier from Apperance window.</p><p>Thank you.</p>]]></description>
