file browsing

Whenever I click on a folder, it openes a new window to view the contents in. After going a few folders deep, my screen is cluttered.

How do I have the contents open in the same window?

To switch off Spatial mode in Fedora Core 2 - open a terminal and copy this in and then pess enter:

Code:

gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/always_use_browser true

then log-out and log back in again.

You don't need to log out, it should set it right away, provided you have no windows open.

Also, there's a "close other windows" option in the spatial Nautilus.
