Looks good!
Given this is unity and not Gnome, does this mean that typing in a file explorer window will select matching files folders in the current directory? (Forward search I think it's called?)
Because currently, Gnome in 17.10 performs recursive search and it's terribly annoying and unhelpful and there doesn't appear to be any way to change it.
- digi_owl 9y agoBeing Unity8, it is not even GTK.
- Freak_NL 9y agoThat would be a feature in Nautilus, Gnome's file explorer. Unity uses/used it as well, so I would expect it to behave in the same way unless patched or reconfigured (if that is at all possible).
- kuschku 9y agoYou could try KDE's Dolphin, that has both available as options (Ctrl-F for search, Ctrl-I for filter)
