The fresh new 1.2 version of Nautilus-actions is out !

This version integrate the long waited mimetypes filtering and you can now choose the case sensitiveness of your file patterns. The Gnome translation team has done a lot of work to improve the translations and some new languages has been added.

You can checkout the full list of changes here.

The new release can be found in the Download section. The packages for the different supported distributions will be made available as soon as their respective packagers will send me their updates, so stay tuned !

As usual, feel free to fill a bug/feature report here if you have any suggestion to make.

Recently, I was working on implementing the GnomeGoals#2.1 to make Nautilus-actions install theme-friendly icons.

And a few days later, I was receiving a proposition from Ulisse Perusin, to replace my old Gimp-hacked icon :

with a new set of Tango style icons :

The Tango project aims at creating a consistent graphical user interface experience for free and Open Source software, and I'm proud to annouce that Nautilus-actions is now compliant with it !

Kudos to Ulisse for this great piece of artwork !

Finally, I found the time to implement this long waiting feature. From now, you can publish on this site your favorites actions so that everybody can take advantage of it !

To do so, you have two possibilities :

• Post your new action anonymously and easily but once added, you will never be able to edit it anymore.
• Or create a new account on this site, and then you will be able to add/modify/delete your own submited actions by following the same link as above

For the moment, I've decided to let the anonymous post being directly published on this site without moderation, but in case of abuse, I will be forced to let them being moderated first. Feel free to contact me[1] if you published a bad/incomplete action by error so I can quickly fixed it.

Meanwhile, you can check out the already available actions.

Finally, the 1.0 version of Nautilus-actions is out !

This version integrate the new layout of Nact for which some of you have voted here on this site.
The Gnome translation team has done a great job since now Nautilus-actions is translated in more than twenty languages. Thanks very much to all these folks !

Please, note that now Nautilus-actions bug tracker has move into Gnome bugzilla. All the previously reported bugs still opened have been transfered into it.

After a lots of discussion about whether to accept it or not ([1], [2], [3], [4]), it finally ends by a lack of concensus for its acceptation and so Nautilus-actions will not be officially part of Gnome 2.14.

So we will try again for the next release and meanwhile we will do our best to fix all the issues that was mentioned .

Anyway, the good news is that now, quite all the main distributions have Nautilus-actions at least in there "extra" repositories and so it is available easily through their automatic update system (apt-get, yum, etc.). Thanks to all the packagers who make this possible.

I've just found a Howto posted quite a long time ago by Killerkiwi on ubuntuforum.org which proposed a lots of example of use of Nautilus-actions.

Here is a non exhaustive list of actions proposed :

• Send Attachment Email via Thunderbird
• Search for files
• Play in Beep Media Player
• Open Root Terminal
• Send to Email
• Open In Konqueror
• Install Deb
• ...

You can find this link and all the other articles about Nautilus-actions in the External Resources page.

And thanks to all these ubuntu users for supporting Nautilus-actions :)

Since I've received many positive comments about Nautilus-actions when I first announced it on GnomeDesktop.org and on this site, I've decided to officially proposed it for inclusion in the future release of Gnome.

You can follow the process in the Gnome wiki page of Gnome 2.14.

Aside from some little known problems, it has been quite well accepted.

Note that it is just a proposal, Nautilus-actions is not yet officially part of Gnome. The final decision will be taken during the Feature and Module Freeze on 18th of January according to the official schedule.

I've found some new interresting articles on two blogs which describe two ways of using Nautilus-actions.

The first one decribes how to (un)mount an ISO file with Nautilus-actions and the second one is about transfering files via bluetooth.

You can find all these links on the External Resources page.

A pre-release of the future 1.0 version of Nautilus-actions is available : V0.99, for your testing pleasure :).

This version has been completely refactored for a big part of it, to make it more integrated into the Gnome Desktop.
In particular, NACT, the configuration tool, has been totally recoded in C instead of python, in order to share the common configuration code.
The configuration is now stored in GConf, the Gnome official configuration database to improve performance and integration.
