Description

Hello @coderaiser and many thanks for cloudcmd !

I have installed it on my OMV 4.x system natively (outside docker) using a Node.js 10.x installation just before Cloud Commander. Followed tips and guide on "Debian Server" threads on-line.

I would like to ask if these two features are to be requested or exist already as I have not found a reference on your main page:

  1. Inverted colour selector
    Just like Midnight Commander or Total Commander, it would be great for the line-selector to appear in inverted colour. I am so used to it that it facilitates greatly to immediately see where the selector is.

  2. Default start-up directory
    I was hoping to get a parameter to define the start-up directories (for both panes) to be something else besides / on the browser. I was hoping to find some parameter that defines the launch or startup directory to show. Does this exist already?

For example, for a Debian service created on OMV to always start Could Commander as as systemd service, I defined the user/group that is allowed to run this feature and wanted to complement it by starting at the user's home directory /home/user/ or some other like /sharedfolders/ for example.

Thanks for listening! Keep up the great work. Best regards.
