A Lua enabled contentlister would also be much easier to modify / extend...
I'm designing / thinking on a new content lister from some time ago.
First I'm going to release a simple file manager (Fedora 12 has been announced today so it won't be as soon as I thought ).

I have lot of ideas but as I would use some of the features I'm testing in this file manager I prefer waiting for your comments.

Btw, a Lua question:
I have some options in the file "program.ini" (f.e. "OPTION1 = true\nOPTION2 = false ..."). Is there a simple way to read this file using "loadfile" or similar and get a table with those options without parsing the file line by line
=> opts = { OPTIONS1 = true, OPTIONS2 = false, ... }, opts been a table defined in _G from the calling code?
