Ok, that's your choice to make, although I'll keep applying this patch to Thunar whenever I build it, since it really does make managing properties of large numbers of files at once a breeze. For example, I just copied over a bunch of files from a backup, and wanted to change permissions on a few, so I just opened properties and rolled through all the files. I'm just wondering if you could explain your reasons for rejecting this patch -- Perhaps there's some way I can keep the increased functionality, but modify it to be acceptable. > Benedikt Ori -- "His great aim was to escape from civilization, and, as soon as he had money, he went to Southern California." _______________________________________________ Thunar-dev mailing list Thunar-dev@xfce.org http://foo-projects.org/mailman/listinfo/thunar-dev
