Hrm, yeah, but I use devfsd... and yet, Nautilus now displays my entire /dev directory without a hitch. Shows you how often I look at and how much I care about /dev, hey? ;-) Oh, another thing Alex is considering implementing is .hidden files, like Mac OS X. For instance, if /.hidden contained... boot dev etc lost+found proc root vmlinuz vmlinuz.old ... none of these directories/files would appear in Nautilus (or, hopefully the file selector) unless you turned on "Show hidden files". You could put a .hidden file anywhere. I think this is a neat and simple method of hiding all the crap, without making extensive changes under the hood (the kinds of things the (Open|GNU)Step people want to do). - Jeff -- GU4DEC: June 16th-18th in Dublin, Ireland http://www.guadec.org/ "It's only ironic because it's true." - Reflexive irony, overheard
