Description Okki 2013-12-18 03:08:49 UTC
We can launch gedit with gedit document1 document2 document3, which allows us to get three tabs with the required documents.

Same thing with gnome-terminal --tab -e "ssh remote computer1" --tab -e "ssh remote computer2" which allows us to get a terminal with several tabs, and each of them can perform a predefined action.

This is useful when we want to automatically run startup applications, without having to do anything ourselves. Unfortunately, nautilus does not allow this kind of action. We can not say we want to open multiple tabs with different paths, and nautilus /path1 /path2 /path3 open stupidly three separate instances of the program.

Thank you :)
