Re: [Tracker] tracker & nautilus integration += metatags

[yelo_3 <yelo_3 yahoo it>]

Can you point to the exact function to use in C? is this in tracker.h?
or in tracker-client.h?

and another more intelligent question: what does this functinon return
if the file is not in the tracker index because its directory is not
watched?

I have a ready nautilus extension (in C) that I can attach, as soon as
I implement the tag filling of NautilusFileInfo.

I'm glad if you can consider to review it for inclusion into tracker!
Thank you very much
