Even if it does nothing. Wait now, I have a solution. thinking as i type here; http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41787 proposes a templates:// IIRC that would be used to generate a "Create -> " context menu item in nautilus similar to the one seen in konqueror. Proprams would install their templates into templates:// to have their their template show up in the context sub-menu. So the obvious solution is for gnome-panel to install a "New Panel" item for inclusion in the "Create" menu. That would mean that nautilus does not have to rely on the panel. I'm not sure if this is possible without messy hacking however as the purpose of "Create ->" is to create a file based on the selected template at the current location, as upposed to creating a panel. Whether on not to remove the New Panel item from the panel menu and make the panel depend on nautilus is another issue. That would need some thought. I personally think that we should not sacrafice creating a usable desktop because some people don't want to use nautilus and the panel together. In the future we are going to see the panels and desktop working closer together i hope. At the same time, we like to give users flexibility, so I agree that we should minmise the cross dependencies. -- .--= [ MArk Finlay - sisob ] =--.
