This is not possible for the exact reason to prevent distributors (or worse, applications) from including "a few" default templates with gnome (like "New docbook xslt dtd schema document", which obviously everyone and their brother needs ;)). If you as distribution want to put them in per default, put them into /etc/skel/Templates before creating the user, so the user later can at least get rid of the stuff he doesnt need and can change the templates. I'd suggest though not to put anything in per default. I'm sure you noticed that the $HOME/Templates folder is visible to the user. This is because it is for the user to put stuff in and edit or remove stuff. A global directory would only be annoying to the users. Been there, done that. Note that I am no nautilus developer, but I certainly can relate why it has been done like it has been done. cheers, Danny -- www.keyserver.net key id A334AEA6
