         Menu title: View

4.3.1  Show as icons                                          TeraDesk

When this option is ticked, files and folders in Directory windows are
shown as icons. When the option is not ticked, they are shown as text.

In icon mode, the names  of all directory icons  will be reduced to no
more  than  12 characters  (maximum length  of icon labels).  Icons of
'hidden' items  will be shown faded  (for the time being it will be so
only if white window background is selected).  Icons of Symbolic Links
will be marked with a 'check' mark.

In  text mode, item size in bytes, creation date and time and the file
attributes or access rights can be shown beside the file name.

Which of these optional information items are  shown is determined  by
the Show options in this menu.
