Add compatibilty to Ultracopier / Catchcopy

[Spheerys]

Hi,

I'm looking for a filemanager which support ultracopier to improve the copy files process
There is a project to standardize the copy press to make the compatibilty works.
This project is called Catchcopy

If you like the idea, there is the two websites :

• http://ultracopier-fr.first-world.info/
• http://catchcopy.first-world.info/wiki

I like the idea but I'm not sure I love the interface of Ultracopier.

I do agree though that Nemo needs a better file copy interface then it currently has (since Nautilus has needed one forever) - I was specifically going to propose integrating the file copy functionality so it wrapped around rsync, which is more or less the de facto standard for moving files around in a reliable fashion.

I'm OK with you about the ultracopier interface.
The main need , in my opinion, is the possibility to enqueue copy files, instead of parallels copy files.
For example, we can keep the same copy process box, but when you drag and drop a file on this process box, the file is queued to go on the same emplacement.

Maybe it's hard to implement, but I always ask myself why nautilus and co did'nt implement this kind of idea....

That's something that's already planned, although we haven't chosen the technical way we're going to use to implement it.

Happy to hear this :)
Maybe the "standard" described by catchcopy is a good way to implement this ?
I don't konw :)

Close this: #336 it's the same...

More can be do, if nemo allow activate an action checking the result code of a python script... Now the option are active also if you do not have nothing on the clipboard(this is wrong)... And more can be do, if Nemo allow replace a basic action with a custom action... If this two thing can be implemented on nemo i can replace complete the default copier of nemo that use GLib by ultracopier. The same can be done for any other copier that can support a CLI interface, D-Bus interface or a compatible python interface....

I'd prefer to add another "Conditions" type,

Conditions=script show_check;foo;

show_check returns 0, action is visible, otherwise it's hidden.

This would have the least chance of regressions I think.

Yes!!! the result it's the same for me... Wonderful!!!

There are any way to assign a keyboard binding to an action? If not, this will be another excelent thing that can be added... It's not difficult capture the key and checked the conditions of the actions and then execute the the action if satisfy the conditions...

The keyboard shortcut can be define by default on the action file and also will be wonderful that can be modify on some place.
