Krusader 1.80.0 "Final 3rd Stone"
=================================
Well, here we are!

The Krew is finally bringing you the _last_ release of Krusader the
file manager. In this release you can expect many new enhancements and
features oriented to both experts and basic users, finalizing many
requests, that we owed and many that were sitting on our todo list. We
would like to thank all of the community for keeping us sharp all these
years till the end and start of our final release cycle.

IMPORTANT: Crashes in Krusader caused by Qt 3.3.5
------------------------------------------------------------------------
We've been getting a lot of emails and bug reports regarding random
crashes in Krusader, especially during some file operations (copy/move
etc.). These crashes are related to Qt 3.3.5 and NOT Krusader.
It seems that Qt 3.3.5 introduced a serious bug which is now causing
random crashes in many KDE applications including Konqueror. You can
google for it to find out more. 

As far as we know, Debian and SUSE already posted new Qt binaries that
fix the problem, and Gentoo has masked Qt 3.3.5 completely.
As for now, you either need Qt 3.3.4 or a fixed Qt 3.3.5, depending on
your distribution. For more information is available on our website at
http://krusader.sourceforge.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=1407
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Krusader 1.80.0 contains plenty of changes, bug fixes and updates
in response to reports and requests from our users. The highlights are:

- Full support for ACL permissions like properties, preserve
  attributes, synchronizer and other
- Many terminal emulator enhancements bringing new functions, new
  usages and new look
- Many improvements of the UserAction system
- Countless usability enhancements, especially in Konfigurator and the

- Atomic extensions and ability to rename the filename, without extension
- Numerous archive enhancements like handling packing and unpacking in
