Sadly I must report that I've done nothing else with the bug report or patch, and in fact I had no idea people even commented on the bug report. *sigh* I really need to keep up to speed with these things more. So, no the patch doesn't work nor do I know what to really do about it considering I seriously do not have the time to devote to solving a problem I still bang my head on from time to time. However, for the interested, I wrote a Perl module called UI::Dialog that has a Nautilus backend and will translate the desktop URIs for you (amongst other things). The relevant documentation can be found here: http://search.cpan.org/~kck/UI-Dialog/lib/UI/Dialog/Backend/Nautilus.pod http://search.cpan.org/~kck/UI-Dialog It's not the best solution for the problem but suffices for me because all of my Nautilus Scripts are written in Perl and not Bash. I've also got some template Perl scripts that I use which have both command line argument and nautilus uri support pre-cooked using UI::Dialog, GetOpt::Long and Pod2Usage. If anyone is interested in these types of things, I'll upload them somewhere and post links. -- Kevin C.
