Hi,
I've always wondered why the Nautilus file dragging modifiers are what
they are. To me, the Windows 9x style makes sense:
Shift: Move
Control: Copy
Alt: Link
In English at least I "shift" a file from one location to another. Copy
and Control both start with C, and Alt is... erm... creating an
alternative location for a file. :)
Okay -- maybe those associations are not that good, but for consistency
should Nautilus2 use the Windows modifiers?
