nautilus-open-terminal in reverse?

TokyoYank · 07-18-2006, 02:19 AM

You're in the terminal
You navigate somewhere, decide it's easier to use drag & drop
You right click in the terminal, go to "Open Nautlius in this Directory"

Does this exist? If not, any tricks to do it?

NOTE: this is not the opposite, nautilus-open-terminal, where you open a terminal in the currently open nautilus window. I know about that, and yes it rocks.

I've tried googling, even for "terminal-open-nautilus", but no joy.

PS If I'm being stupid please tell me. For example, if there's an easy command line way to spawn nautilus into the current working directory, kindly lemme know

PPS Even if I am being stupid, please post if you think it's a good idea to have this functionality by default. The Gnomes are listening.

Code:

nautilus .

That should get you rolling

Thanks.

I added the following to my ~/.bashrc
alias nb='nautilus --browser .'

However, my nautilus window pops up underneath my terminal. I know some people like that, but in this case I don't. Is my gnome session messed up? I'll try logout/login in a second. Can't find a setting in nautilus..

PS I still wish this were a feature of Gnome, via right-click
