Captain Nemo

Note: Due to the removal of important features in Nautilus version 3.6 this plugin is no longer supported. I recommend using an alternative file manager such as Krusader instead.

Captain Nemo is an extension which converts Nautilus into a two-panel (orthodox) file manager.

Features

  • Keyboard shortcuts editor:

F3 View - currently opens the selected file in Gedit
F4 Edit - currently opens the selected file in Gedit
F5 Copy to another panel
F6 Move to another panel

    Note that Captain Nemo requires at least version 1.0-0ubuntu2 of the python-nautilus package in Ubuntu.
