I've never used Nautilus, so I can't comment, but what you are doing sounds
correct. or at least plausible.
No ida why it gives you an empty file though. Any Nautilus users who can

Subject: RE: [newbie] copying files from cd
I am doing everything from the desktop, I am way to new to try
anything else. From Nautilus right click copy, go to a new
directory, right click paste. files go in but 0 bytes. I changed
from
Gnome to Windowmaker and it worked fine. -Jeff
