Description bfrank 2001-09-10 00:51:55 UTC
PREFACE: This is a feature request I just wanted captured somewhere.

In the File menu, and the Right-Click menu, there should be an option to create
a "New File ...".

The operation would simply do a "touch" of a file named "untitled file" and
enable the renaming of the file and highlight the file name for renaming.  This
allows the user to rename the file to give it a name and to use with the
appropriate extension for use with an application.

Let the discussion begin...

BTW...this is a operation in GMC that we don't have yet.

Taking bugs previously assigned to Pavel, assigning them to myself. Will parse
them out at my leisure , but many are GnomeVFS bugs we should look at for 2.0

Changed priority to high because it is requested often - hope that's
the correct usage ;-)
