Fman filemanager in MATE Desktop
Hello everyone.-
I have installed correctly fman filemanager on MATE and i like it a lot but is there a way to integrate it with MATE by default? I have tried "Prefered Aplications" and under System->File Manager fman doesnt show 
It works correctly but i would like a better integration. Thank you !!!

Re: Fman filemanager in MATE Desktop
It is closed source, so you might better buy a license and ask upstream. Maybe it just about adding a desktop file with the correct categories.
But how did you install it. I just saw that the package in AUR does somesthing strange. I downloads a package for pacman, extracts it and makes again a package from it.

I didnt install from AUR, coudnt, becouse as you say its strange, i dont remember if i installed it from the normal packages or from the website, but not from AUR. 
Anyway whatever the package does, i think it tries, to auto-update itself, some people dont like this, but i think that the developer is good, a little lack of understanding in pacman, etc, but i dont think he is upto something strange doing that.
