This new view, backed by a GColumnsView, joins the existing table and icon
views :^) Even though it displays a file tree, its data is provided by the very
same GFileSystemModel that the other two views use.
This commit also includes my attempt at making an icon for the new mode.
We used to have two different models for displaying file system contents:
the FileManager-grade table-like directory model, which exposed rich data
(such as file icons with integrated image previews) about contents of a
single directory, and the tree-like GFileSystemModel, which only exposed
a tree of file names with very basic info about them.
This commit unifies the two. The new GFileSystemModel can be used both as a
tree-like and as a table-like model, or in fact in both ways simultaneously.
It exposes rich data about a file system subtree rooted at the given root.
The users of the two previous models are all ported to use this new model.
We should work towards a pattern where we take StringView as function
arguments, and store String as member, to push the String construction
to the last possible moment.
Also run it across the whole tree to get everything using the One True Style.
We don't yet run this in an automated fashion as it's a little slow, but
there is a snippet to do so in makeall.sh.
fixed it so that directories don't get double-opened (first when they are
opened, and second when the selection changes to match in the file tree view)
Now you can hook activation via GAbstractView::on_activation.
The design still isn't quite right, we should eventually move the selection
away from the model somehow.
Replace the custom DirectoryView widget with a GTableView subclass.
This was pleasantly straightforward and it's so cool seeing the huge
increase in app quality from GTableView. :^)
My needs are really quite simple, so I'm just going to add what I need
as I go along. The first thing I needed was a simple box layout with
widgets being able to say whether they prefer fixed or fill for both
their vertical and horizontal sizes.
I also made a simple GStatusBar so FileManager can show how many bytes
worth of files are in the current directory.
