PcmanFM and single-click delay
Howdy-ha, folks. Does anyone know of a way to change the delay of (or do away with) automatic item selection on mouse hover in PcmanFM while using single-click mode? I love this filemanager, and love using single-click, but it's irritating to have an entire selection range deselected because I can't hit a hotkey combo quickly enough. Judging by the config file in ~/.config/pcmanfm, I'd guess not? Or is there perhaps a third-party solution/work-around?

Re: PcmanFM and single-click delay
Not sure if that qualifies as a workaround, but Thunar can be configured as you want.
Otherwise, it shouldn't be that hard to change pcmanfm's source code to disable auto selection... Or set the delay to something huge.

Re: PcmanFM and single-click delay
I suppose Thunar could be considered a work-around, although I prefer PcmanFm. 
Maybe I'll screw around with the source for it later today... I know about as much about C as I do about the history of 19th-Century Appalachian quilting (I just arbitrarily assume it's written in C, which tells you what my qualifications for coding are), but I have an idea of where to start looking anyway.
