Thank you for your ideas. From my understanding all your ideas that
would mean to open a Terminal and run
./script.sh a.ext b.ext c.ext d.ext
typing this is not much simpler than
1. start dispvm with nautilus
2. send files from source-vm nautilus
3. open files in destination-vm nautilus
in my opinion. This would only be useful if this could be added to
nautilus context menu. I guess this can be integrated using nautilus
actions.
I was curious so I explored how to do the context menu in Gnome/Files
app for kicking this off. Here is what I did:
I first wrote a bash script to test:
$ cat open_multiple
#!/bin/bash
zenity --list --column="Column name 1" $@
I copied a desktop file to my .local/share/applications/ and edited it
to look like:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=OpenMultiple
Exec=/home/user/bin/open_multiple %U
Icon=utilities-terminal
Type=Application
Then I edited my .local/share/applications/mimeapps.list and added:
[Default Applications]
x-scheme-handler/file=open_multiple.desktop
Then when right clicking on a group of files and selecting "Open With
Other Application" I selected my "OpenMultiple" entry and up pops a
zenity dialog box with the names of the files I had selected. You should
be able to do something similar with nautilus if you like.
The script you write of course will be very different than mine.
