New Release: v1.18.0
21 July 2024
The Gnome Commander team is happy to announce the release of Gnome
Commander version 1.18.0.
This release is awesome because it contains the migration from Gtk-2 to Gtk-3. This great achivement would not have been possible without the work of Andrey Kutejko. Thank you very much for this!
This release focuses on modernizing the codebase, improving the user interface, and ensuring future compatibility with Gtk4 (Andrey already started with migration work for this), while also addressing bugs and enhancing internationalization support. Enjoy!
As always, a lot of translators contributed to Gnome Commander. Also, I want to thank everyone who reported issues on GitHub. This work is also very appreciated.
Thank you all for that!
