Folder name with dot

Question

Is there a way to make vifm not to separate the text after the last dot in a folder name? It considers it as extension and move it to the right side where all the file extensions are. I prefer it doesn't do this for folders.

Thank you

Sounds like you're using {ext} in 'viewcolumns', while you want to use {fileext}.

Using {ext}, the text after the last dot in a foldername shows up above the file extensions in the list.

Using {fileext}, the text after the last dot in a foldername does not show up in the list at all.

Is there any way to ignore dot in the folder names, i.e. show the entire name of the folder?

You must also be using {root}, use {fileroot} in its place.
