Hi Guys,

After years of using and loving ROX-Filer, I finally realised I have no 
use for the permissions, user or group columns in the details view.  Fun 
reason to have a look at the code.

Looking at the source code, I see this in display.c:

static char *details(FilerWindow *filer_window, DirItem *item)
{
.
.
.
    else if (filer_window->details_type == DETAILS_TIMES)
    {
        guchar    *ctime, *mtime, *atime;
       
        ctime = pretty_time(&item->ctime);
        mtime = pretty_time(&item->mtime);
        atime = pretty_time(&item->atime);
       
        buf = g_strdup_printf("a[%s] c[%s] m[%s]", atime, ctime, mtime);
        g_free(ctime);
        g_free(mtime);
        g_free(atime);
    }
.
.
.

Nipping  this bit of code out and then recompiling (./AppRun --compile) 
yields no change to the resulting binary's behaviour.  Sorry if this is 
a noobie question, but what am I doing wrong?
