I like the way NeXTstep did it. If you drag an icon from the Workspace Manager to a shell or into Emacs, it 'drops' as the full path name of the item you dragged. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at:

I just want to say that such a thing can make a great difference if it is included by default. Everything or anything that needs a customary script to be installed kinda increases the investment required to use the feature by 8000%. And if you have a 100 such things you want to change, it

PPS: I suspect that Nautilus provides to add plugin/action scripts, for SpaceFM you can write "tools" scripts. IOW when using the variable "%f" you could write a script that copies to the clip board or opens a terminal with the full path etc.. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list

PS: FWIW reagrding your request Xfe also is a PITA. Note, an advantage of SpceFM, Rodent and Thunar (Thunar at least without gvfs) is, that they allow to delete items with the delete key, while other file managers don't delete, they usually only allow to move to trash (~/.local/share/Trash/).

Re: suggest policy: all GUI apps that display files/folders right-click copies full path

I guess you need to file a feature request to upstream, IOW to the GNOME bug tracker. I'm not using Nautilus, but if you use Thunar, and the address bar e.g. shows /home/rocketmouse/ while .bogofilter is selected and you Ctrl+A and Ctrl+C in the address bar, you get /home/rocketmouse/.bogofilter
