Yea - I'd seen that article too, and got simiarly confused. Those sort of URLS work in mc/gmc - but evo doesn't grok them. The stranger part is that neither of those packages (mc or gmc) seem to depend on gnome-vfs in any way that I can determine (rpm, ldd, etc.) I posted a question on this subject (my first to the list) about a week ago and got this in response: Unfortunately, I'm not at a point with work that I have time to really dig into nautilus and figure out how it uses vfs. :7 On 1/23/02 10:01 PM, "Dan Berger" <dberger ix netcom com> wrote: > Double-Clicking on a .tar.gz, or a .rpm, or a .zip, or any number of > file types that gmc (or more accurately gnome-vfs) groks results in > the "I don't have a viewer" message.

And it wouldn't be too hard for someone to add it to Nautilus. I understand that it's a feature you really like in gmc, and I'm sorry no one contributed the corresponding feature for Nautilus. -- Dan Berger [dberger ix netcom com] http://home.ix.netcom.com/~dberger Inter arma silent leges "Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the government's purposes are beneficent.
