file-operations fire-n-forget
Last modified: 2011-10-09 19:49:20 UTC
This requirement was originally filled at: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/528403 Hi, got an idea for nautilus (and any other file explorer basically) first, i'll say that i really like the single window for multiple file operations. but, it still displays popups during copying for errors/warnings/user-descisions-needed. copy is stalled then. instead, could you please: - keep copying files that dont require userinteraction. - list all errs / warnings / etc in a (user-visible) interactive log. have a setting in config for auto-show-or-not of log. - during, or at the end of copying, check the log, and resolve the errs/warnings/etc. pref not by a gauntlet of dialogs, but by showing the log, some colors, and a right-side panel to select the action (which starts immediately, counter/progressbar in colored log entry plz) I believe this would be a great improvement for nautilus; end-users, if you agree, comment "+1" plz. On a side-note; it would also be cool if nautilus took into acount the various filesystems being copied from and to. One set of write-operations per file-system please, that would result in faster copying i think.
