This is so rude. You've done nothing for the guy (neither have I), and have probably used and benefited from his work (that we did not pay for) in some way - and then to single him out and ridicule him? There's an actual human on the other side there...
If the underlying filesystem changes, say a copy operation, the file manager view does not update without a manual refresh by CTL+R. This leaves the view in a stale state, presenting false file information to the user, who might never know until they do something bad. This is a showstopper bug that’s been hanging around since forever.
I don’t know what you mean. If a open my Downloads folder and then download something, it shows up in Nautilus without refreshing anything
Batch rename. Good luck trying to rename a series of files ordered sequentially by number, if the number happens to start with any number other than one. A sequence from 2 to x is impossible to batch rename. Because regex in sed never worked either. No, wait. It’s always worked! For like, 50 years.
I mean at least there is a batch rename function unlike in windows
Why, when moving a collection of files or a directory within the same filesystem, does it actually perform a copy and delete operation, taking cpu and time, when the inode location could just be updated like mv does?
Again, I can’t reproduce it. I can move many GB instantly using ctrl + x and ctrl + v
The only thing that really annoys me with Nautilus is that you can’t type in the directory path you want to open except using ctrl + L. In the hamburger menu there even is an option to copy the path. Why not make one more to edit it? Or replace copy with edit, because when editing you can also copy it anyway
As far as I’ve seen, they don’t provide any advantage over a string with spaces, which doesn’t work well either when you’ve got values with spaces:
<span style="color:#323232;">not_what_you_think=( "a b" "c" "d" )
</span><span style="color:#323232;">for sneaky in ${not_what_you_think[@]}; do
</span><span style="color:#323232;"> echo "This is sneaky: ${sneaky}"
</span><span style="color:#323232;">done
</span>
<span style="color:#323232;">This is sneaky: a
</span><span style="color:#323232;">This is sneaky: b
</span><span style="color:#323232;">This is sneaky: c
</span><span style="color:#323232;">This is sneaky: d
</span>
