This I like -- kind of what Vista has, right? It's not a bad idea per se to offer visual means of selecting files instead of, to paraphrase, "hidden" keyboard shortcuts. But consider that the new column with actions and/or selection checkboxes would probably also begin its life cycle as a hidden column, too. How many people would go searching for it? I suppose only true Nautilus devs can tackle this :) -- nautilus-list mailing list nautilus-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/nautilus-list
