File Browser Question

[nevaeh]

I'm using YDL 6.0 with the Enlightment E17 gui. It uses the Nautilus file browser, which is fine, but everytime you click open a new folder, it opens a new window....The second is found under system tools, and called "File Browser", which opens every folder in the same window...Any way to default to this? Or at least create a shortcut in my launch bar?

Nautilus uses single window mode for me ran as:

Code: Select all

nautilus --no-desktop --browser


I don't use E17 myself, but you should be able to add an application button to the shelf that runs that command line.

I've created a script that will start the Nautilus browser, your help was genious. Now I ask for one more thing, I can't seem to figure out how to add a shortcut to the shelf. I've tried a simple drag and drop, but It won't add it. Anything special I have to do?

Edit: Nevermind, I've figured it out, although it was a somewhat round 'about way of doing it. I created a new application for the shelf, selected a pre-made one, and then just edited it to point to my script file, and it works perfectly!

W00t! Glad it's working, and thanks for pointing out what you did.

Been looking for an easy solution to that for a long time! Thanks!

Also - if you use the middle mouse button - or hold down the shift key when you left click - opening a new folder will keep it in the same window.
