Re: How to get file parameters for a Nautilus Script while

[RUAUDEL Frédéric <ruaudel embl fr>]

Maybe you could try to convert your nautilus script into a 
nautilus-actions action [1]. You will have the possibility to have 
contextual appearance of your script in the popup menu and all the 
parameters you need will be available to your script even included the 
hostname and login of the connection.

Feel free to contact me if you need more info about it.

Best regards,

Fred
