McCann: Cross Cut [the future of Nautilus]
[Development] Posted Aug 2, 2012 20:20 UTC (Thu) by corbet

GNOME developer William Jon McCann has posted a lengthy article on recent work done with the Nautilus file manager and where that utility is going. "Nautilus was a bit of black sheep among the GNOME 3 core applications. It had a design that grew organically over many years and didn’t really seem to fit in any more. In bringing it back up to par we now have things like a much improved and space efficient maximized window state, a more consistent menu layout and behavior, more consistent use of icons, and a more GNOME 3 style pathbar and toolbar."
