The default contains the `%d` wildcard, which is replaced by the directory. [This man page](https://www.mankier.com/1/xdg-open) says "Open the current directory in the default file explorer: `xdg-open .`", which implies you can give it a directory and it will open a file explorer program. It works on my Linux Mint anyway. (I did the cinnamon install and I don't have nautilus).

If the user wanted the file manager to select the file, they should change it to e.g. `nemo %f`, which works on my system. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/3815#issuecomment-2039526874 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
