Are you saying that there is a build available with the toggle you mention? That would be a very fast responce.

The .lua script files are easy to work with and mostly human readable. The free editing tool "Notepad++" includes display templates for many of the scripting languages. It is not that big an effort to make such simple edits to enable a feature you won't need to change, in use of the program. I am a little surprised that they would add a toggle for that.

But it appears that it was added to the File Manager main menu, probably make it into the next nightly build. If you can't wait just make the changes to the script files that Github spells out for you.

I went ahead and made the changes. It works fine.

It is in build 481 and works fine there too.

Luck;
