Here's a nice set of Nautilus (Gnome file manager) screenshots: http://www.ifrance.com/ardantz/linux/nautilus/nautilus.htm The plugins are interesting. It seems that when you hit a certain directory, Nautilus can switch to a plugin for managing the contents. Look at the music plugin, for an example. I wonder if Pied/Piper can work within Nautilus in such a fashion. The user can browse to a Piper directory and then have Pied show up for working with the contents. Hmm. Jeff
