Nautilus-Actions

Nautilus-Actions is an open source extension for Nautilus (Files), the default file manager of the GNOME desktop environment, allowing users to modify and extend its functionality.

With Nautilus-Actions, you will be able to configure the Nautilus program by adding arbitrary actions to its context menus. Furthermore, you will be able to organize these actions in menus and sub-menus.

Each time you right-click on one or multiple selected files in Nautilus, the Nautilus-Actions software will parse its config files to see if a program has been set for this action.

Users are also able to export and share the actions with other desktop environments. This software is highly inspired by the nautilus-sendto extentions created by Roberto Majadas.
