Description danny.milo 2003-04-08 18:12:28 UTC 
is marking by a rectangular "lasso" like in the icon view also 
  possible in the list view?

  If not, maybe use a checkbox in front of every file or a small
  "unused" area, which can be used to mark files by covering it. 

  The way it is now is especially weird when using single-click, because
  marking files becomes more of a riddle than straightforward ;)

  ok, middle mouse button seems to be used solely to marking and 
  drag&drop-action files now. aha. my error :)
  btw Can I change a setting somewhere to use the right mouse button for drag&drop-action?

  ok, <ctrl>+click works too it seems.

  hehe, still lasso marking would be cool.

  What do you think?

I think this bug should be splitted into several:
1. Marking files in "one click behaviour" can be made like in windows
- if I leave mouse cursor on some file or folder for some time this
file is marked.
2. marking files in the list view should be similar like marking in
icon view.
