Nemo version 1.0.0 was released in July 2012 along with version 1.6 of the Cinnamon,[3] reaching version 1.1.2 in November 2012.[4] It started as a fork of the GNOME file manager Nautilus v3.4[5][6][7] after the developers of the operating system Linux Mint considered that "Nautilus 3.6 is a catastrophe".[8][9][10] Developer Gwendal Le Bihan named the project "nemo" after Jules Verne's famous character Captain Nemo, who is the captain of the Nautilus.[10]
Features
Nemo v1.0.0 had the following features as described by the developers:[10]
- Uses GVfs and GIO
- All the features Nautilus 3.4 had and which are missing in Nautilus 3.6 (all desktop icons, compact view, etc.)
- Open in terminal (integral part of Nemo)
- Open as root (integral part of Nemo)
- File operations progress information (when copying or moving files, one can see the percentage and information about the operation on the window title and so also in the window list)
- Proper GTK bookmarks management
- Full navigation options (back, forward, up, refresh)
- Ability to toggle between the path entry and the path breadcrumb widgets
- Many more configuration options
gollark: When a conversation happens and you see it later, it seems to just start in some random place in the middle of it, instead of where it started or just the end of the logs.
gollark: Its scrolling does seem to be kind of weird and inconsistent.
gollark: Determinism is just saying that the universe... is deterministic, i.e. the current state is determined entirely by the initial conditions and rules for updating it.
gollark: That seems like not determinism as much as some bizarre philosophical thing about truth.
gollark: What?
