I have updated this to (build) version 1.2.0 (see first post for link)
Its very usable with only minor quirks now. You shouldn't -need- to be a linux expert now to use it.
- Fullscreen toggle workaround (use magnifying glass icon in lower left) until i figure out how to bind that to the hardware fullscreen button.
- Integrates now with mplayer, xmms, quiver, mirage, unzip, tar.
- Context menu to show all options for a given file (open with, compress, view, edit, encrypt, change permissions, etc, etc)... just hit the hardware menu button.
- Zoomin and Zoomout hardware buttons now toggle between the two panes (double press of either shows both)
- Fullscreen toggles between two file panes.
- Remapped terminal to osso-xterm and remapped su to sudo (although it doesnt like -root?- password... anyone know what pass sudo needs?)
You are able to edit associations in the advanced settings although its still awkward due to screen space (scrolling within scrolling)... let me know if you get something working and i will add it to the base install configuration.
Unfortunately all the nokia applications seem to pass parameters through an osso context instead of on the command line... (i'm not sure why... doesn't seem very linux like) so you wont be able to launch music in nokia media player or view image in default image viewer... but for third party apps which support command line arguments (or command line utils) this makes a good environment for interoperating within a graphical power shell.
