XFCE v4.8 publishes UNIX and Unix-like operating system desktop environment

XFCE is a desktop environment that runs on UNIX and unix-like operating systems, such as Linux and FreeBSD, which is primarily set by the mouse, and its profiles are usually not seen by ordinary users. The XFCE is designed to be "designed to be used as a practical application, to quickly load and execute programs, and to reduce the consumption of system resources".

XFCE also provides programmers with http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/13435.html "> development framework." In addition to XFCE itself, there are third-party programs that use XFCE libraries, such as text editors-mousepad, multimedia playback programs-Xfmedia and terminal simulators-Terminal emulator.

Xfce is built on gtk++ 2.x. It uses XFWM as the window manager. Xfce is a bit like another commercial desktop environment CDE, but it's already a big difference in the new version.

Nearly two years after the release of Xfce 4.6, the XFCE development team finally brought us a new 4.8 version. This release mainly includes the following improvements and enhancements:

· Thunar-as the default file browser for XFCE, Thunar now supports browsing remote shared files, a progress dialog box with file operations, and pop-up buttons for removable devices.

• Desktop panel-XFCE 4.8 has completely rewritten the desktop panel components, improved panel placement and sizing, supports transparent backgrounds, new panel item editors, allows you to create initiators by dragging, adding new window buttons, fuzzy Clocks, and directory menu plug-ins.

· XFCE Setup Components-improved Multihead settings, timed confirmations, new quick setup dialogs, improved keyboard layout options, and more.
