File Permissions in Nautilus (GnomeDesktop)

[Posted June 21, 2006 by cook]

GnomeDesktop mentions the latest changes to the Nautilus file manager permissions capabilities. "Alexander Larsson recently committed his work on the permissions page in Nautilus. He writes: I just commited a rework of the permissions page in the file property dialog. It has a simplified UI (and an advanced/unixy version availible via a gconf setting) and support for recursive permission changes."

Wel, yes, changes. I don't think its much better, but hey, guess I just
like checkboxes more than he does... But why is it 'usable' to not include
ACL support? How many years is Nautilus behind on this one???
