ROX-Filer merge[edit]

ROX-Filer fails WP:N so it's a candidate for deletion/merge on its own. Better to merge it here. Pcap ping 18:33, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know what I'm supposed to discuss here, but I agree. Zaixionito (talk) 02:23, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Seems a good idea to me too and I'm similarly bereft of anything much more to say about it. They are better off together. Personally I think the whole philosophy of ROX is far better than the ghastly filer system when you want to save a file on windows. Dmcq (talk) 10:46, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll just go ahead and do it then. It doesn't look too contentious. Dmcq (talk)

Is it correct that it works on Microsoft Windows? I found no info on that and it seems impossible since it is a X windows desktop manager. If nobody disagrees and I dont forget I will correct that.Schizofrenikh (talk) 20:20, 7 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty certainly that's wrong - go for it. Dmcq (talk) 22:51, 7 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
