*I understand some people rename files like that, but...* Apperantly you do not. It is not convenient what you aren't used to, period. It does not matter at all what reasoning you come up with. On 8 May 2013 19:47, Alberto Salvia Novella es204904...@gmail.com wrote: I understand some people

You can wait for that, they don't give a crap about user requests. The entire Gnome/Unity UI concept is going against most users' needs. On 7 May 2013 15:47, BS-Harou har...@gmail.com wrote: @Lem: Most of the time I don't really need to write a new name. Mostly I just want to copy the name or

So roughly 90% of PC users can be ignored. And you wonder why Linux is unable to gain popularity. And you say it's freedom when you decide how others should think and act. You try to educate hardware manufacturers the exact same way, this one of the reasons they don't care about Linux support. And

I could even hit F2. The point is that people socialised on Windows always try to click twice first. Anything else is inconvenient, any reasoning and why don't you... is perfectly pointless and ignorant. On 8 May 2013 17:53, Lem 48...@bugs.launchpad.net wrote: @Martin: If you really want to

No, it doesn't happen often at all that you accidentally click on a file twice and on the file name the second time (millions of people are used to it), it's just an excuse to justify your silly decision. Like I said, implementing it as an option wouldn't hurt anybody, especially with a default

I'm sorry for having an opinion, I didn't know it's prohibited here. Also, I understand since Linux is a very simple and clear-out design in general, it would hurt the concept to give users freedom at the expense of simplicity. Forgive me for bothering you, won't happen ever again. On 13

@Seb: I'm sorry, actually it was me that revived this discussion with a rather flaming diatribe. Thank you for directing me to the original Nautilus bug - for some reason Google doesn't pick it up, and I really wanted to know what the process was that led to this decision. I find it surprising,

Of course, on Mac OS, you can also hit return to rename a file: http://www.tuaw.com/2007/04/26/mac-101-a-simple-trick-to-rename-files/ In Nautilus and on Windows, this opens the file, which is pretty expensive and surprising if you do it by mistake... On Thu, Dec 13, 2012 at 9:53 AM, David

How much effort would it take to implement it as an option for those perverts who want it? This is a perfect example of the negligance and arrogance of the immature people in the open-sauce community, don't get surprised Linux still measures between zero and nothing as a desktop OS. On 12
