How to I get Nautilus in Gnome to open file browser windows and close the
parent window. I have looked in Nautilus/Preferences/Behaviour tab but
there does not appear to be an option there. It's a very annoying
windows-like behaviour. I'm lost.


So, you're in spatial mode. There's a couple of things you can do:
 * Hold shift while opening folders - same keybinding as Mac OS Classic's
   Finder (the most popular spatial file manager)
 * Switch to browse mode in Edit > Preferences (under View, "Always open in
   browser windows")

Ah OK. I'll use Browser windows. I saw that option but it wasn't what I wanted as it provided too much info on the screen while the simpler file window was all I wanted. Hence I was looking for other options somewhere.

Thanks
