There are some useful improvements in HEAD but not in gtk stable yet: 1) There's now a visible text box you can type to in the Open File dialog
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=136541 2) It's now aynchronous, ie. it will load the icons, file list, etc. in the background. No more waiting for slow network connections on remote directoiries. gtk2 is finally ahead of gtk1 on the file dialog :-) (I'm not a gtk2 developer, this is just my understanding from reading the mailing lists, hope I've got it right) On 6/24/06, Ricardo Malafaia <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I personally like it very much: it's very keyboard friendly.
