This commit let caja-extensions in guix can not show proper language,
for example: show "Chinese" when LC_ALL=zh_CN.UTF8, when I revert this commit and try again,
the problem disapear.

guix system do not use "/usr/share/locale/".

In caja's preferences window, extensions tab, a selected extension may be customized if options are available. I'd like to request that the gksu extension have an option added that allows toggling of the actual command used, between gksu and gksudo.

caja 1.10.4 caja-gksu 1.10.1 on debian sid 32bits
When gksu is disabled in the preferences, the extension is loaded anyway and works correctly.
When enabled, is loaded twice and the second instance correctly fires errors in .xsession-errors about
"Refusing to add non-unique action 'Gksu::open_as_root' to action group 'DirExtensionsMenuGroup"
and several other related gtk errors on every action done in ui.
I straced the process and noticed that all installed extension libraries are always loaded, despite the preference status. I suppose this is by design. But other extensions are not activated if disabled, while gksu is.
I searched anywhere to find a trace of previous installations (mate upgrade is not always straightforward on debian ;-)) but i found nothing. Tell me if I can give other details or run any kind of test.

On openSUSE Tumbleweed we only ship gupnp-1.2 (1.2.1), so no gupnp-1.0. So we can't build caja-extension-sendto-upnp out-of-the-box anymore.

I created the following patch to let it build again:

Is this the right way to do it? Would you accept a proper PR, the configure.ac thing needs some more love.

Looks like last version build fails with latest gcc 14.x which is now used in fedora rawhide.

I would be really nice if, just like nautilus-dropbox, nautilus-seafile was ported to caja. I tried to convince them on haiwen/seafile-client#575 but they considered it not their task.

Seafile is a fully open source alternative to dropbox that can be easily self-hosted.

I think maybe the problem lies in how the extension finds terminal-emulator, I've installed xfce4-terminal and xterm, no mate-terminal or gnome-terminal installed, so is there somewhere to specify what terminal-emulator I would prefer to use?

Hitting the hot key F4 opens the folder in a Terminal window.

F1 to F3 are already assigned.
Furthermore, F4 lies left of F5 which is often used as a make -B shortcut.

quote from debian bug:

Hi,

caja-extensions depends on gksu, which is deprecated and
unmaintained. Thus we want to remove it from the archive.

caja-extensions should switch to a supported and securer way to
become root, particularly one that doesn't mean running your whole
application as root (including the GUI), e.g. using polkit.

Please try to do this before the Stretch release as we're going to
try to remove gksu this cycle.

We'll bump this to serious when the list of rdeps is small and we're
getting ready to removing gksu completely.

If you have any question don't hesitate to ask.

Workaround:

I did not have caja-sendto installed by default (this is not a bug), so the context menu was missing
sudo apt-get install caja-sendto

I had to link a sendto plugin related to bluetooth, which is installed with nautilus-sendto (I do not know if this one was alredy installed or was installed as a dependency of another package.

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/nautilus-sendto/plugins/libnstblueman.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/caja-sendto/plugins/libnstblueman.so

Request:

I tried it and it works. So the code related to libnstblueman.so from nautilus-sendto package can be copied to caja-sendto and it should work.

I have released clamtk-mate 0.02.01 and periscopio-mate 1.18.1. The first one adds an entry in caja context menu to scan files or directories for menaces. The second adds an entry in caja context menu to right click any movie or tv show video file and search & download the corresponding subtitle.

Additional information:

Starting caja-sendto from a command line and trying to send a file can produce these diagnostic messages on the terminal:

** Message: 02:51:19.927: Mailer type: 3
** Message: 02:51:19.928: Command: claws-mail

indicating the correct selection of claws-mail but no parameters are given in the command.

Looking in caja-extensions-master/sendto/plugins/emailclient/emailclient.c (from 1.27.0)

In function "send_files", this line (#242 in my emailclient.c)

cmd = g_strdup_printf (mail_cmd, mailto->str);

seems intended to combine mail_cmd with mailto->str, however it can only do that if the mail_cmd contains a "%s".

For claws-mail, mail_cmd does not have the "%s", so mailto->str is just thrown out.

I believe that for Thunderbird and Evolution mail_cmd does have the %s, but for balsa and claws it doesn't have it, so maybe this problem affects balsa as well (I can't easily test this).

For me the problem can be fixed up in the function "init" by changing these lines:

		} else if (strstr (mail_cmd, "sylpheed") || strstr (mail_cmd, "claws"))
			type = MAILER_SYLPHEED;

to these:

		} else if (strstr (mail_cmd, "sylpheed") || strstr (mail_cmd, "claws")) {
			char *mail_cmd_aux = mail_cmd;
			mail_cmd = g_strdup_printf ("%s %%s", mail_cmd_aux);
			g_free (mail_cmd_aux);
			type = MAILER_SYLPHEED;
		}

These lines were adapted from the code that follows in emailclient.c for Evolution and I present them for illustration only.

Hi all,

The open in terminal option is really great.

What I am missing, however, is a quick way to launch the terminal from the current directory without having to open the context menu.

Could we provide a default keyboard shortcut such as F4?

Mint 17.1 32 bit mate edition.

Caja seems to be missing some of the useful extensions that are available in the repo for Nautilus and Nemo.

IMO, caja should have the same client extensions as nemo to provide a consistent/similar "mint" experience on both mate and cinnamon.

While there are more, the two that I find most useful that are missing are:

• rabbitvcs
• compare

There is a caja rabbitvcs client available in the rabbitvcs repo, so rolling a package shouldn't be that difficult.
https://github.com/rabbitvcs/rabbitvcs/tree/master/clients/caja

In the larger picture, it would be great if caja had all the same extensions as nemo.
When it doesn't, it makes caja seem like it is not getting the same level of support as nemo.

Hi,

let me reaffirm #31 by saying that the open-terminal is really great.
Is there a way to integrate the open-terminal-call into the context menu of a 'folder-button' in caja's location bar?
Sometimes, I'd like to open a terminal in a place a little up in the hierarchy. Also, in list view that takes up the whole height of the window, I sometimes can't find a spot to right click the current folder. Of course, the shortcut is an option I am currently getting comfortable with. But it doesn't help me with my first 'issue'.
If you point me to the place where the context menus are created, I'll be happy to contribute this feature.

Best
Mirco

hello, my english is poor, and i'm not sure if you can understand me.
i just want to make my customed-menu-item show top of context-menu when i right-click on file. Is there anyway to achieve it?
thank you.

I'm currently working on an extension to add support to manage Tags on files. This extension is a new tab on the File Properties window.
You can see the tags associated with a file, add new tags and remove existing ones.

Demo:

Features:

• Each time you add a new tag, it will be added to a list of recently used tags. The next time you add an existing tag, the autosuggestion/autocomplete will appear on the text input.

Current Limitations:

• Cannot edit tags of multiple files at the same time.

Missing features due to lacking support for extension settings/preferences:

• Clear the list of tags on the autocomplete feature
• Remove specific tags from the autocomplete feature
• Configure the max amount of entries to have in the recent tags

Those missing features can be worked-around with dconf-editor

TODO:

• Check corner cases (read only/permissions/missing support for xattrs/multi-thread/file rename/file remove/etc)
• Look for memory leaks

The current name for this extension is caja-xattr-tags-property-page-extension which I think is too long.. any suggestion ?
