New pre-release available

Another emelFM2 pre-release is available from http://emelfm2.net/OtherDownLoads.

Changes are listed at http://emelfm2.net/ChangeLog. In summary, some small 
changes, UI-related or intended to facilitate fuse usage (i.e. on Linux or 
FreeBSD). And some bugs fixed.

This might have been an official release, but I hope to encourage a few serious 
fuse-users to evaluate it, before publishing to the wider world. I've noted 
(from very limited testing) that some fuse-daemons can behave in a 
not-so-friendly and compatible manner. Maybe some more tweaks to e2 would be 
helpful.

I saw a recent evaluation of gnome-vfs problems, and how its dev's are about to 
embark on a major change of approach (moving things from gnome into and around 
glib, that's good). And here I was, thinking that some freedesktop-centred team 
was well into all that. Together with your responses to my recent enquiries 
about vfs support, that evaluation convinced me that the time is not yet right 
to implement vfs-type functionality in e2, or at least, not more than fuse 
allows. I did do some work on adapting the current UI to incorporate additional 
information for non-local items, but will mothball that for now.

Regards
Tom
