Why have one disfunctional screen when you can draw a line down the middle and have two, assuming it's tall enough. KDEs Dolphin has a columns option that would allow horizontal list view (hiding the info) but I've never spent time with compact view (except rox-filer to reduce dependencies) or columns. -- ________________________________________________________ Why not do something good every day and install BOINC. ________________________________________________________ -- nautilus-list mailing list nautilus-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/nautilus-list
