0008   <title>MountMan: work with your mounted file systems</title>

0012   <para>MountMan is a tool which helps you manage your mounted file systems. Once
0013   invoked, it displays a list of every mounted file system. For each file system,
0014   MountMan displays its name (which is the actual device name - &ie; <filename
0015   class="directory">/dev/sda1</filename> for a first partition on first
0016   <hardware>HDD</hardware>), its type (ext4, ext3, ntfs, vfat, ReiserFS...)
0017   and its mount point on your system (the folder on which the file system
0018   is mounted).</para>
0019   <para>If you want filter out non-removable devices from the list,
0020   just check the item <guilabel>Show only removable devices</guilabel>
0021   at the left of the device list.

0034   <para>MountMan also displays usage information using total size,
0035   free size, and percentage of available space free. If those
0036   numbers say 
0037   <guilabel>N/A</guilabel>, that usually means that the file system
0038   is not mounted. Left clicking on a file system displays a pie chart
0039   on the left of the window, graphically displaying the usage
0040   information for the file system. Clicking on a non-mounted
0041   file system will display 
0042   <guilabel>not mounted</guilabel> instead of the graph.</para>

0052       <keycap>Right-clicking</keycap> on a file system will open a
0053       small menu which displays what actions can be performed on
0054       that file system. At the moment, you can only mount, unmount
0055       and eject (if clicking on a removable file system, &eg;, a 
0056       &CD-ROM;).</para>

0059   <note>
0060     <para>We plan to expand MountMan in the next evolution of &krusader;. It will be able
0061     to format partitions, edit <filename>/etc/fstab</filename>,
0062     create new file systems and more.... By the way, we have started working on it,
0063     see <quote>Quickmode for MountMan</quote>.</para>

0067   </para>
0068   <para>To activate Quickmode for MountMan, click lateral button with arrow on the
0069   MountMan button on the <link linkend="mainwindow">Main Toolbar</link>.</para>
0070   <para>General idea: display a list of all possible mount points.
0071   Each time the menu is displayed, it determines if a mount point is
0072   mounted or not and associates the correct action (mount or
0073   umount). This offers a quick interface to MountMan. It is
0074   working, and currently uses KMountMan::mount and unmount. It uses
0075   the new &kf5-full; services for fstab-reading and this will
0076   enable us to remove a lot of code from the <quote>old</quote> MountMan.</para>
