Nautilus Actions

A bug with Nautilus was fixed to make it update
its popup menus when a configuration value changes
in Nautilus-actions. The problem with the Export
feature in Nact when the config contains some XML
special characters was fixed. Error handling in
Nact was improved, and now displays error dialogs
when necessary. The icon preview in Nact which was
displaying a bad icon in some special cases was
fixed. The creation of the "%M" parameter pattern
was fixed when selecting files in virtual
"SavedSearch" folders. The extension part was
optimized by updating the config list only when it
has changed and not each time Nautilus asks for
it.

This release adds support for filtering using the mimetypes of the
selected files, the ability to set the case sensitiveness of file
patterns, new Tango-style icons which install in compliance with fd.o
standards, and bugfixes.

The layout of Nact has been changed to provide a
usable interface on small resolution screens. Nact
allows a configuration to be duplicated to ease
the creation of several similar actions. Some
grammar and spelling errors have been fixed. The
default "Manage Actions" action has been removed
from the popup menu. Nact is now only accessible
from the desktop preferences menu. The
configurations list is sorted alphabetically in
Nact's dialogs. More than twenty language
translation have been added or updated. Lots of
other minor bugfixes were made.

The actions now appear in the background of
Nautilus windows. An icon for the menu entry in
Nautilus can be defined for each action. GConf is
used for the configuration instead of the previous
custom XML file format. An import/export feature
has been added into Nact to allow users to get
back their old configurations and to more easily
share the new ones. The layout of Nact has been
improved to be more usable. Two command line tools
have been added to convert old configuration files
into new ones and to create a new one from a
terminal. It is now possible to modify the schemes
list in Nact's edit dialog.

Nact can save a new config as a normal user again.
Nact starts correctly when the $LANG environement
variable is not set. The problem with Nact
crashing when using the x-nautilus-desktop scheme
was solved. The alignment problems in the
interface of the localized version of Nact has
been fixed. A Nautilus Actions icon has been
created. The desktop file has been made compliant
with the FreeDesktop standards. The Spanish
translation has been added.
