NX-Shell - Multipurpose File Manager for Nintendo Switch

Hello everyone, the new release with the much requested USB support is finally here! (Couldn't have done it without @DarkMatterCore's usb library) It's worth mentioning since it is such a big update (backend changes and FS refactor) there *may* be some issues, but the only way I can find and fix those is through you guys! However rest assured, I did run a lot of tests myself to make sure it is functioning as expected. If I waited a month, it would've been exactly 2 years since the last release 🥺.

Change-log:

  • FS:
    • Added support for browsing USB devices.
    • Switched back to libc to handle FS operations.
    • Brought back support for browsing other devices such as safe, user and system.
  • GUI:
    • Update to imGui v1.88.
    • Switch to imGui's new keyEvent API.
    • The two views (File Browser and Settings) can now be navigated as tabs.
    • Switched from list view to a table view using imGui's table API.
    • Sorting is no longer applied from settings, it can be done directly by clicking on the table column headers.
    • A new selector has been added to allow the user to switch to different devices such as safe, user, USB etc.
    • Settings are no longer categorized by imGui's tree system.
    • No longer uses SDL2 as a backend, but instead uses opengl v3 directly (along with egl).
  • Fixes:
    • Properly delete config file if the config file version is outdated.
    • Properly free textures after exiting application.
    • Fixed scrolling via the right joystick after zooming into an image.
    • Lots of code clean up and under the hood changes that are too many to list here.

That has nothing to do about it, when you want something done right, you do it yourself, that way you know its done right.

most people who develop for the switch don't want to make things for sxos, until there are real usb drivers made for the switch by a decent dev who wants usb support, no one will use the crap driver from tx.
I use it, and I would consider myself decent.

Before this gets off-topic-ery, I'd like to ask kindly...

Any revision more stable than 1.20? It crashes after a few page flips of a pdf.
Next version won't have the PDF feature anymore. I made a post a few (months? week?) back about why I'm discontinuing.

TLDR: The person who made the pull request and implemented the ebook reader does not want to maintain it. I don't like being told my software has bugs with something which I'm not too familiar with myself hence I made the decision to remove it.

Release v2.00 is up

I had to get this one out considering how long its been! Please note: The ebook reading feature has been removed, for more information look here. Also sorry for the lack of updates, I'll try to keep working on this and releasing minor updates/hot fixes if required. This is a rather major update since it completely revamps the music player as well as add support for extracting various archives. It also includes some welcomed fixes that are long overdue (sorry if this is not what you guys expected).
