Yeah, that's good to know, I just learned that from Calum's response. I guess I can now start using List View more often and get the benefits from the latest developments. The only pending thing is the rubber-band selection of items in the list view. You try that now and you might end up moving files or folders into another folder without knowing. I'd think the right solution here is something like the "Details View" of Explorer in MS Windows which is the equivalent of the List View in nautilus. When you select an item you just select that item (the file name), not the whole row. But I guess this solution is kind of hard to implement in nautilus, may be because of GTK+ (I don't really know). Do all of you agree? -William __________________________________________________ Correo Yahoo! Espacio para todos tus mensajes, antivirus y antispam �gratis!
