Running openSUSE 12.3
Switching back to KDE after using Gnome since SuSE 10.1
I do a lot of video/audio processing using shell scripts that I constantly edit and then run.
In Nautilus there is an option to have it ask me whether I want to Display, Run in Terminal or Run an executable text file.
I cannot find an option like that in Dolphin.
Does that option exist in Dolphin?
If so, where can I find it?
Thanks,
Chris

i don’t know how to do what you ask in Dolphin…but, if installed
along with the ‘basic’ gnome packages, it is very possible to run
Nautilus in KDE, so . . .
try it:
-hold down left Alt
-momentarily press F2
-in the resulting blank (top center) type nautilus
-press enter
if you do not have it installed, just ask how…
The latest Nautilus may not run well in KDE as one of the menus dangles from the top panel.
Yes it is weird.
I have both KDE and Gnome installed.
I have been switching back and forth trying to find a setup that I like and fits my needs.
I just tried Nautilus under KDE. Yes it’s weird, but it behaves more the way I prefer under KDE than under Gnome.
However, I’m strongly leaning towards KDE. I really find Nautilus under Gnome to be a frustrating and cumbersome file manager.
I have figured out how to get the Jacksum scripts integrated into Dolphin under KDE4.
If I can create a service menu to mimic this “Run in Terminal” Nautilus feature in Dolphin, then I would be happy.
I used KDE with SuSE 9.2 and 9.3.
I switched to Gnome for 10.1 and really liked its looks and features.
I think that Gnome under 11.4 was really my favourite, by far.
Gnome under 12.1 was a bit frustrating until I customized it.
The new Nautilus just kills Gnome for me.
Too bad, because I generally prefer the appearance of Gnome over KDE.

i can’t be solely responsible for that.
