BeOS 5 didn't -have- the navigator to be turned on by default. I'd still

back it being turned on, as spatial file browsing is so early 90s... but the
original BeOS used spatial by default.

Either I didn't make myself clear, or I don't understand what you mean.
Probably both, sorry. I'll try again.

I'm using BeOS MAX and the tracker has the "Show Navigator" option ON
by default, while in Haiku it is OFF in the default configuration. I was

just wondering

why it is not ON by default in Haiku like it is in BeOS MAX.

BeOS Max uses OpenTracker. "Real" BeOS used the original Tracker, which had
no Navigator mode. OpenTracker's default is also not to have the Navigator
turned on.

I'm a member of the navigator on crowd too.  But it doesn't bother me.
 What ever the OS, I have a ritual I follow to set it up the way I
like.  like in windows, it's show file extensions, unhide system files
and folders, classic start menu, list view as default etc. :)
It's not a big deal, but I also would like to have the navigator on by default.
