Have you any idea HOW TO SHOW DIRECTORY LISTING (dirs and files) in WIDGET, BADGE or DYNAMIC TEXT (best with scrolling)?
WHY? I’m using dirs as simple GTD and I want to see my tasks directly in LL. 😉
Can be updated manually or better when target directory changed.
Sorting simple alphabetical, better also switch to sort by date.
Will be also really great to have a “+” button to add new task into showed directory. 😀
I never tried scripting in LL, but I hope it can be done by LL.
I still have not found any widget that could do this. Do you know anything?

Sorry if this answer is too late, but I made a quick ‘file manager’ using only LL.
In case you want to try it, here is the prototype. You need to add a panel and get its id (long tap the panel, the number at the top of the menu).
You may configure the panel, set it to 1 column and more rows, multiple-line labels, etc. Then create the following script and change the id to the one of your panel. Don’t forget the ‘0x’! (If your panel was #000ab write 0xab) you can change also the default directory.
Tell me how you want to improve it, and I’ll try.

How to add “+” and make new directory?
BTW, load/refresh of directory with 90 items/directories on external SD card takes about 21 second (Octa Core MT6753 @ 1,3 GHz) which is ehmmm… not so fast. 🙂

Try this new version. I optimized it and changed how the items are loaded. It should be noticeable faster.
I also added a create button that creates an empty file from a given name.

TrianguloY Thx for update! 🙂 Wow, it is 4x faster! 😉 Now I’m looking for just one improve&change – to create empty directory, not a file, and put in on top of list, under “UP”, it is possible please! 🙂
