This IS possible in pcmanfm (another file manager). Likely there is a way in Thunar, as well. I just don't know because I don't use thunar or xfce frequently (prefering openbox and mc, also sometimes using pcmanfm). I'm surprised nobody has posted a solution. Just, were I to be using thunar, I do know that the option I mention works. ./tony -- http://www.tonybaldwin.me all tony, all the time! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
