Description wattelli 2002-10-30 08:11:40 UTC 
If you right-click on a directory in nautilus to show the copy/cut/paste
menu you will be offered to "cut file" or "copy file". Perhaps a folder is
technically a type of file, but for most users, a folder is distinct from a
file. A better context menu would offer the user to "cut folder or "copy
folder". Alternatively, the context menu could offer to simply "cut" or "copy".
