Using nautilus as the desktop organizer on gnome 2.28, I want to open a nautilus window on a given directory with: $ nautilus --browser --no-desktop --no-default-window ~/tmp/foo and have that command block until the user closes the opened window. The reason is that ~/tmp/foo was created specifically and temporarily for that nautilus window to operate in and should be removed when the user is done and closes the nautilus window that was opened by the command line invocation. I've looked for the obvious "don't fork into the background" type switches but they don't exist, likely because that command line simply sends an instruction to the existing nautilus desktop process to just open a new window and then exits. Alternatively, if there was a command that would block while nautilus has a window opened on a dir and then would unblock when that window is closed, that would suffice also as I can block and then rm when the command returns. Thanx, b.
